REENA FLORES CBS NEWS March 26, 2016 Obama Condemns Attempts To "Stigmatize" Muslims In Wake Of Brussels Attacks
With at least one Republican candidate for the White House endorsing patrols of U.S. Muslim neighborhoods in the wake of this week's deadly bombings in Brussels, President Obama is cautioning against such approaches, saying any such proposals would "stigmatize" Muslim-Americans.
"As we move forward in this fight, we have to wield another weapon alongside our airstrikes, our military, our counterterrorism work and our diplomacy," the president said in a video released Saturday. "That's the power of our example."
Mr. Obama called on the U.S. to "reject any attempt to stigmatize Muslim-Americans, and their enormous contributions to our country and our way of life."
"Such attempts are contrary to our character, to our values and to our history as a nation built around the idea of religious freedom," he said.
While he did not name Texas Sen. Ted Cruz specifically, he alluded to the GOP presidential contender's plan to police pockets of Muslims in the U.S., which Cruz has defended despite widespread criticism from members of his own party.
The president noted that such actions are a "counterproductive" approach to defeating extremists abroad because it "plays right into the hands of terrorists who want to turn us against one another, who need a reason to recruit more people to their hateful cause."

He spends an inordinate amount of time harassing Christians and Jews, and condoning muslim evil.
At least Trump’s wife isn’t packing.
How awful...stigmatizing moozlums for murdering innocents. That obviously is a hate crime. Maybe it is just an expression of their peaceful culture. One could argue that those murdered are now “at peace”.
Either God is punishing this country for the last 8 years for kicking Him out of our lives and country,, or This is all just a bad nightmare from which we can’t wake up-
Will God continue punishing this nation by allowing another 4-8 years of the same Godless presidency as the last 7 years? Will the nightmare continue?
I’m waiting for the next million man March by Muslims moving for a total reform in their theocratic fascistic ideology and a call for their fellow travellers to scrutinize and reform in their midst. Won’t happen. In the meantime the Muslim apologist in chief is an enabler.
stigmatize this mussiescum!!!!!
Another day, another atrocity, another apology. Rinse and repeat ...
another 4-8 years of the same Godless presidency as the last 7 years?
If Hillery! gets in there will be a god, his name will
be Allah.
She has been brain washed by her sexual partner, it
happens all the time.
Revelation 20:4-- Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded.
Read up on the 12th Madhi.
It’s OK with the Great Pretender if Muslims sticks-o-dynamatize us.
PETA should object to all that fur !
They’re doing a fine job of stigmatizing themselves. The rest of the world simply observes and cleans up the messes made by muslims.
Tell you what, Mr. Pres(id)ent, how about you dismiss all the secret service around the White House?
Hmm, not going to happen?
Maybe us who don’t live in armored homes and travel with hundreds of armed guards might have a different viewpoint on what would make us safe?
LOL!
Those who had been beheaded... as if it took Islam to bring this on the scene? Please tell this to the French Revolution. If that’s your best tie to Islam then that’s pretty inconclusive.
Does ANYONE understand this gobblygook from our appeaser-in-chief? I do, it's about appeasement which is the only thing he understands since he believes America should not be the leader of the free world, and all societies should have equal standing. Witness his dancing in Cuba while Brussles burned. A continuing communist Cuban dictatorship that has kill countless. Can't wait for him to do the boobaloo with Kim Jung Un. Maybe he can ask Maddie Albright for some dance steps.
"Mr. Obama called on the U.S. to "reject any attempt to stigmatize Muslim-Americans, and their enormous contributions to our country and our way of life."
And those "enormous contributions" are exactly what? List them!
"Such attempts are contrary to our character, to our values and to our history as a nation built around the idea of religious freedom," he said."
So our national character/values includes a theology/ideology that at the very least makes women second class citizens, not to mention their monstrous actions around the entire World almost every day?
BTW, you hypocritical POS, why is your Justice Department fighting against the religious beliefs of the Little Sisters in THEIR religious beliefs? I thought it impossible, but I do learn to hate you more every day.
Have you read up on the 12th Madhi? That was not an idle remark.
Bubba Clinton skated. Looks like Hussein Obama will skate.
Just like Hitler-y Clinton skates. ‘Cause, ya see, POTUS’s
just don’t get impeached & REMOVED from office. At least,
Democrat POTUS’s don’t, ya see. ‘Cause the American people
just won’t TOLERATE a Democrat POTUS being impeached and
removed!
