Showing Original Post only (View all)Hillary Was Right: Trump Rant On Muslims Shows Up On New Terror Recruitment Video [View all]
http://www.addictinginfo.org/2016/01/01/hillary-was-right-trump-rant-on-muslims-shows-up-on-new-terror-recruitment-video/After Hillary Clinton made the argument that Donald Trumps hateful rants against Muslims were fueling Islamic terrorism recruitment during a recent debate, Republicans and the Fox News crowd last their minds accusing her of lying. Where were these videos? They demanded. A reporter just found one.more
While ISISs campaign of terror in the Middle East gets most of the headlines, an equally horrific group is operating out of Africa. Al-Shabab, linked to al-Qaeda, has been responsible for a number of massacres, terror attacks, and other human rights atrocities, primarily in Somalia and Kenya. Recently, the groups numbers and influence has dwindled after sustained opposition from a coalition of African governments. They are clearly desperate so they are reportedly turning to the powerful recruitment tool known as Donald Trump.
Harun Maruf, a journalist working with Voice of America, has been closely following Al-Shabab and its recruitment strategies. On January 1, he came across a new video that features you guessed it Trumps recent call for a total Muslim ban.

Nope, not walking the line. A necessary part of DU to be able to criticize writing vs the person.
