Major Hillary Clinton Donor Urges ‘More Scrutiny’ of Muslims (xpost from LBN)

Source: New York Times



Haim Saban, a Hollywood mogul and Israel hawk who is one of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s biggest backers, suggested there should be “more scrutiny” of Muslims in the wake of the terrorist attacks in Paris.

But Mr. Saban, in an interview with the Hollywood news website The Wrap, said he believes the violence can only help Mrs. Clinton, the former secretary of state who enjoys a comfortable lead in polls of the Democratic presidential field.

Mr. Saban was blunt about how his colleagues in Hollywood view the national landscape after the terror attacks in France. His remarks were published on the eve of a national security speech that Mrs. Clinton is giving about how to confront the Islamic State and terrorism in general.

“Many members of the Hollywood community are very liberal and they value their civil liberties more than they value life,” Mr. Saban said. “I disagree with that. You want to be free and dead? I’d rather be not free and alive.”
