Trump Muslim Ban Comments Featured In Al-Qaeda Propaganda Video

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Early last month, Donald Trump shocked the American electorate by “calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until [the] country’s representatives can figure out what is going on.”

While it wasn’t entirely clear what Trump meant by “until lawmakers can figure out what is going on,” the message was unequivocal: the GOP frontrunner was calling for the nation to filter those entering the country based on religion. 

In the wake of Trump’s declaration, many analysts, commentators, and pundits assumed the brazen billionaire had finally crossed the line. That is, up to that point, Trump had proven to be largely “gaffe proof,” so to speak. Nothing he said - from calling illegal immigrants “rapists” to suggesting Fox anchor Megyn Kelly was “bleeding out of her wherever” - seemed to dent his run for the White House and in fact, his poll numbers seemed to rise with each passing insult. 

The Muslim ban however, would be another story. Or so many people thought. 

As it turns out, Trump’s lead over the rest of the field only widened as his message with regard to combating radical Islam resonated with many Americans who are struggling to discern how best to ensure what happened in Paris doesn’t happen in New York or Washington DC. 

Irrespective of one’s take on Trump’s Muslim diktat, it was fairly obvious from the beginning that extremists around the world would use it to recruit. Here’s what Hillary Clinton said during the third Democratic primary debate: "He is becoming ISIS's best recruiter. They are going to people, showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists." 

That’s not so much a politically-motivated attack on Trump from an entrenched member of America’s political aristocracy as it is an objective assessment of reality. That is, if you were a member of an extremist group and you were in charge of recruiting, you’d be remiss not to mention Trump.

For his part, Trump denies the allegations. Here’s what he said in the wake of Clinton’s comments:

“Nobody has been able to back that up. It’s nonsense. It’s just another Hillary lie. She lies like crazy about everything, whether it’s trips where she was being gunned down in a helicopter or an airplane. She’s a liar, and everybody knows that. But she just made this up in thin air. No fact-checker has been able to back up her claim on that.”

Well, no fact checkers are needed now because al-Shabaab (al-Qaeda's Somali arm) has released the following video featuring Trump:

Besides Trump, the video stars Anwar al-Awlaki, the top al-Qaeda recruiter who was killed in a US drone strike in 2011. "There are ominous clouds gathering in your horizon," al-Awlaki says. "Yesterday, America was a land of slavery, segregation, lynching, and Ku Klux Klan. And tomorrow it will be a land of religious discrimination and concentration camps," he continues.

Will Trump shake this off with the ease he's shed each and every controversy surrounding his campaign thus far? Probably. 

However, it's worth noting that al-Awlaki gives Muslims living in the West "two choices": "Either you leave, or you fight," he says. How would voters respond if this particular video were to serve as the inspiration for an attack on American soil by a US citizen? Would it cause the portion of the electorate who supports the notion of a Muslim ban to reconsier their position or, would such a tragedy only strengthen Trump's hand by reinforcing the link between Islam and violence? 

We'll leave it to readers to decide.

Islam is NOT a religion.

It is a political control movement and cancer that preys upon the weak; hence it ensnares the massive amount of low information rabble out there.

Islam in Arabic translates to “SUBMIT” in English.

What the F else do you need to know ??????

Oh, hell.. for all you “believers”... your f’n Prophet owned slaves, chopped the heads off of thousands of people, was a destroyer of cities, had many wives, screwed a 9 year old girl and only allah knows how many camels.

Shove your belief straight down the rectums of all those who point their butts upright towards the west.

Oh.. and the "winged horse" thing.. there you go. morons.

Another Rita Katz SITE Intelligence production. AMAZING how Hillary claims this is happening but cant show any proof and BAM Rita produces, er I mean finds this! Perfect timing. Wonder how much Hillary paid Rita to do this one?

 

The No Agenda Show described EXACTLY that this would happen on Dec 24, even saying that SITE would find the video https://www.noagendaplayer.com/listen/784/29-34

You know I couldn't help but notice the ISIS video employs the same technique of cutting the Trump quote off in the middle.

"calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States"

(MSM AND ISIS CUT QUOTE)

 

Full actual quote:

"Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on,"

Seems like ISIS and the mainstream media are almost controlled by the same people.....Hmmmm........

They won't allow Trump to win. They said it right off the bat.
The real reason is FREE TRADE, which Clinton puppet signed NAFTA, GATT WTO.
And that was treason. The purpose was to kill the middle class because peasants are much easier to kill and control.

In 1950 97% of shoes sold in America were made in America. They wanted to flood the country with foreign products to destroy American industries.
This is the goal of the real rulers of this country.

George Washington warned about this, you need tariffs to protect your people and maintain their standard of living and national sovereignty.
I will vote for Trump and he went beyond Ron Paul to state that he would start a trade war and he wanted to bring our industry back and for that he is an American Patriot in my view,  but we know how this ends.
Remember Ross Perot and the giant flushing sound?

Only 3% of the population fought in the revolutionary war.

3% ….Interesting observation.

..seems to support the squeaky wheel theory.

Now.. although some folks might be able to arm their entire block (>300 million guns in private hands), here is an interesting few minutes to spend that supports a drastic but less bloody solution.

Yeah.....and a shit ton of those slaves that came to America were rounded up by your Muzzie forefathers you cocksucking camel fucker.  And they still are......but you won't hear Louis Farrakan speak about that one will you?

Totally wrong you liar. The majoriy of the blacks rounded up were west African Muslims and the slave traders were animists by faith. And let's not forget the massive Jewish involvement in the financing of the British ships and the control of the early American chattel slave markets. But hey, don't let the facts get in the way of your zionist propaganda. http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/Walter.White/Who.Brought.the.Slaves.t...

They are the same people as JO among others have pointed out on numerous occassions. I mean is McCain not the Supreme Commander of Al Nusrah Front? Are the Saudis not the largest financial contributors to DAESH? The largest contributor to Hillary's campaign fund are the Saudi's also. The US/UK/Israel/ZATO are training DAESH & the other Motley Crews. The Turkmen are providing logistics, safe haven and training camps while Israeli doctors treat the DAESH wounded.

. . . . and so it's no surprise the MSM propaganda channels are aiding their clients.

Islam does indeed mean "submission", but only to God, or, as Hinduism clearly puts it, with one's own (and everyone else's as well) inner Self. 

It is dismaying to see the level of anti-Islamic fervency at this site, amidst the usual intelligent conversation.

Every now and again the spazzes over at Herzeliyya have a blitz at ZH to try and make it look like there's loads of people out there who agree with their wholesale murder of palestinians and their almost 60 years of land theft, by trying to encourage hatred towards the faith of their victims. It's an old and sad set of canards that they trot out every time, which even Orientalists don't bother to espouse because they know all the arguments to be false. Pathetic.

Odd that "al-quaida" can get a dead man to speak.  

In any event, who gives a fuck that some Muslim extremist is ranting in a video about Trumps position about sealing the borders to Muslim terrorists.

Does anyone actually believe that America is hated any less, with or without the Donald ?

Time to give the Middle East back to the Sunni's and Shia's. Maybe Israel can volunteer to be the honest intermediary.

Enough American blood and treasure has been wasted on this shithole on earth. You could turn rocks into oil cheaper than the American military adventures in the Middle east.
