Donald Trump and Ben Carson back use of waterboarding against Isil

Donald Trump: “I would certainly implement that”.

The head of the Catholic Church in England and Wales frown upon Donald Trump’s proposal of forcing American Muslims to register on a database in light of the Paris attacks. We want to go with watch lists.

Trump’s comments were the latest and perhaps the most extreme contribution to what is an already sharply charged debate over whether the U.S. should accept Muslim refugees from Syria and Iraq in the wake of the Paris attacks last Friday.

After several statements this week indicating s of Muslims, Republican presidential candidate and business mogul Donald Trump tried to walk back his comments in a slightly confusing tweet Friday afternoon.

On Sunday, Trump said: “I don’t want to close mosques; I want to surveil mosques”.

“Mightier than the government of the United States are the people of the United States”, Taufique said, citing an Indian activist whom he admires. “That’s not strength; that’s weakness”, he said.

Trump also said it would be necessary to institute surveillance of some of the country’s mosques. “And so we’re going to have to do certain things that were frankly unthinkable a year ago”.

Indeed, at another campaign event Friday, Trump did not rule out the idea of a Muslim registry. “I never responded to that question”, he said.

While some of his rivals have been chastised by President Barack Obama for suggesting that Christian Syrian refugees be given preference over Muslims, Trump has gone further in his rhetoric, advocating new restrictions on civil liberties and enhanced surveillance activities, including inside mosques. “We can protect our freedoms here”, he said.

Asked how his system would differ from what the Nazis did to the Jews, Trump said repeatedly: “You tell me”. Trump was asked by NBC News whether he would support creating a database system to track Muslims. “It’s just a question thrown at Trump, and it comes to him in the midst of autograph seekers and fans and supporters wanting to meet him after his performance is finished”.

“I have to stop and think about our home country because they have been so vocal to say they want to be the sole people on this earth and it’s their way or no way really”, the woman said.

Democratic presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders also criticized Trump’s comments.

The reporter initially asked Trump whether there should be a database to track Muslims. “So if we are just going to pick out a particular group of people based on their religion, based on their race, based on some other thing – that’s a pretty unsafe precedent”. It should be denounced by all seeking to lead this country.

“This is way beyond the pale, this is basically a call to persecute a religious minority based on nothing other than their faith”, Hooper said.
