Trump Takes Aim At Jihad: 'Ideology of Death Must Be Extinguished'
Frontpage ^ | August 16, 2016 | Joseph Klein

Donald Trump delivered a major foreign policy speech Monday in Youngstown, Ohio, entitled “Understanding The Threat: Radical Islam And The Age Of Terror.” He lashed out strongly against the Obama-Clinton foreign policies that have led to turmoil in the Middle East, unleashed ISIS and allowed Iran to enhance its power in the region and globally. However, rather than dwell on the mistakes of the past, Trump also outlined his own forceful approach to defeating radical Islamic terrorist organizations once and for all, which includes, but is not limited to, just ISIS alone.

“We cannot let this evil continue,” Trump declared. He decried “the hateful ideology of Radical Islam – its oppression of women, gays, children, and nonbelievers” in a way that President Obama and Hillary Clinton have utterly failed to do. “Anyone who cannot name our enemy, is not fit to lead this country,” Trump said. “Anyone who cannot condemn the hatred, oppression and violence of Radical Islam lacks the moral clarity to serve as our President.”

While Trump’s words were measured, the moral clarity of his vision and strategies to achieve it were crystal clear. “We will defeat Radical Islamic Terrorism, just as we have defeated every threat we have faced in every age before,” he declared.

Trump hits a home run with historic speech on ISIS and Islamic terrorism.

It is one of the greatest speeches ever given by a political candidate.

If Hillary becomes president we should all convert to Islam and learn the Koran by heart in Spanish.

Every word of his speech should be shouted from the rooftops.

Utterly brilliant — and TRUE.

What speech? You mean Joe Biden’s “masterful” denunciation of Trump that’s been all over the Media?

Having started his war with the media, who now give him almost “zero” coverage, he has a very high hill to climb to get them (media) back to openly covering him as they did when he first came on the political scene.

His speech definitely needs to be heard by every voter in this country who cares to save it for future generations.

And all Hillary's people have to offer is to tell us how dangerous and scaaaary a Trump Presidency would be - they must lay awake at nights with the knowledge that Truth beats lies every time it's tried and persisted with....

“Having started his war with the media”

Trump never “started his war with the media”. Trump made himself available and tried to speak to everyone.

The media has worked to destroy him from the very beginning.

Trump is winning because he appeals to the American people. The media have lied about Trump and attacked him from day one.

The media want Clinton to win.
