Trump Would Consider Closing Certain Mosques In Wake Of Paris Attacks

“We have to be much tougher”, he said. “Under the old regime we had tremendous surveillance going around and in the mosques in NY City”.

Donald Trump said the idea of shutting down mosques should be considered, like a few European countries have suggested in the wake of the Paris terrorist attacks.

On MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” the GOP presidential candidate was asked whether there’s something he would do as president that isn’t being done now to protect USA citizens.

Though the President criticizes Trump’s aggressive immigration position, the Obama administration’s own record of deporting unauthorized immigrants at the border gives a hypothetical President Trump the groundwork to implement his ideas. And, he said that there is “already hatred”, when it comes to backlash behind such a move. When it comes to mosques in France, Cazeneuve and the French government are doing far more than strong consideration.

“As a Christian, we’re taught that we’re supposed to welcome visitors – welcome people from overseas, welcome foreigners to our land”, Phillips said. “I have been critical of people in the Muslim community, but the fact is you can’t be shutting down mosques…We do have freedom of religion”. I just left watching our president talking (on TV), and boy, he does not get it. “You hear the term ‘radical Islam terrorism, ‘ and he won’t say it. You can’t solve a problem if you refuse to talk about”.

“So they go and fight for ISIS, they come back into our country and we accept them back”.

Trump also said he backed a few U.S. troops – perhaps 10,000 – in the region but would instead focus on targeting Islamic State’s oil and banking operations. The caller said Friday’s attacks in Paris were “the last straw”, reported The Associated Press.

Trump said that under the leadership of NY City Mayor Bill de Blasio, mosques are no longer being surveilled. “Voters out there are so disgusted with the way the Democrats in Washington handled themselves that they are gravitating toward different types of candidates and that’s what seems to be happening right now”, said Haynes.

“I think it’s great”, Trump said on Fox Business when asked if he would do the same in America, according to The Daily Beast. Donald Trump issued a call for inspecting mosques for evidences of terrorism.

After the rally, Trump supporters chanted “Build that Wall” as they clashed with anti-Trump demonstrators outside the convention center.

Republican contender Marco Rubio said on ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday the US should not admit the refugees because it’s impossible to know whether those fleeing Syria have links to Islamic militants.
