POSTED ON DECEMBER 3, 2015 BY JOHN HINDERAKER IN DONALD TRUMP, ISLAM HUH. DONALD TRUMP WAS RIGHT AFTER ALL Donald Trump’s insistence that he saw one or more television news stories about Muslims in Jersey City celebrating the collapse of the Twin Towers in September 11 provoked outrage on the left....

Now, someone has found the TV news report that Trump probably was talking about. It is from a local station in New York and was broadcast on September 16, 2001. The report confirms that Muslims were observed celebrating the collapse of the World Trade Center on September 11, and says that eight were arrested. This is consistent with newspaper accounts that were published at the time, including one in the Washington Post:

Eight people is “thousands and thousands”?

There has now been ample evidence that proves Donald was correct. There have also been plenty of first hand accounts.

It is when you include several towns in N.J., in N.Y., and in Michigan.

For every Muslim seen celebrating, how many were unseen? 10? 100?

8 people does not make it thousands. Plus, there is no video of the 8 jackasses celebrating. Yes, it was reported, but it was not on tape.

The way things are going with Trump calling things out at the right time it seems; even Hillary will be supporting Trump by next fall!

Well chalk it up to the media-savvy brilliance of Donald Trump. With that statement, he put himself in a win-win situation.

Had the media simply challenged him on the numbers, Trump would have won because then the media would have had to admit that yes, it did happen. Trump could then say "We can argue about the numbers, and perhaps I'm off on that, but the fact is, it happened and even the media admits it."

But by trying to deny it happened at all, the media handed Trump an even bigger win. Now nobody is really caring about the number at all, just that the media got caught with their pants down trying to rewrite history and tried to get away with a blatant lie.

I remember hearing these reports not knowing that New Jersey had a large Muslim population. I did after that.

Eight people here, eight people there, adds up.

But whether it was "thousands" in NJ or millions around the world, I think we all know he is right. Muslims were celebrating.

It's like the old joke about the guy who asked the woman for sex if he paid her $5 million dollars. She said ok. He said, well, "How about $5." She said, "What do you think I am?" He said, "We've already determined what you are. Now we're just negotiating the price."
