Bombings in the New York region and a stabbing attack in Minnesota have thrust Islamic extremism into the forefront of the 2016 election just a week before the first presidential debate, with Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton offering dramatically different visions of how to fight it.
Trump has embraced aggressive rhetoric in a plan that’s short on detail, but centers on limiting immigration — both legal and illegal — and dispensing with “politically correct” policies that currently block racial profiling and the use of torture.
Clinton has offered policies that would focus on leveraging alliances and improving relationships with Muslim communities at home while working closely with technology companies to crack down on propaganda and communication that encourages “lone wolf” attacks.

One hint: Benghazi -- this is how Hillary protected our US Ambassador.
Trump stands with the citizens and the rule of law.
The first GOP nominee in 30 years to do so.
I am grateful to Mr. Trump for sparing us another Designated Loser in Yeb!
illary stands with whoever is paying her at the moment.
leveraging alliances and improving relationships...
clinton sounds like the BS artist investment bankers I used to work for.
We need people deported and our enemies dead.
She’s the kickback Queen.
Something the Clintons have damned near perfected.
—and in plain sight.
What "Muslim community" has stepped up to flight Islamic extremism?
It's a serious question. I hear a lot of "Islam is a religion of peace", but no Muslims willing to stand up and fight terrorism and war in the name of Islam.
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
I didn't think so.
Yes, by doing so -- they would be painting a target on their back. But then, they would understand how the rest of us feel.
“Radical Islam is not an existential threat.” Obama’s
Ask a Brit how they feel about that.
Misleading headline since Hillary won't even utter those words. She's probably cussing at The Washington Post for being so ISLAMOPHOBIC!!!
Hillary can’t even protect her OWN emails, how is she going to protect US?
Hillary will bankrupt America to build an immortality device and a space colony like Elysium and it will be home to her elite supporters.
These media clowns can’t even formulate a headline without inserting their lying propaganda. It is not “extremism” that is the the problem. It is terrorism.
If Muslims want to be friendly, let them be extremely friendly. (Many are.) If they want to hospitable, let them be extremely hospitable. (Many are.) If they want to be self controlled when it comes to dietary restrictions, sexual purity, and modesty, let them be extremely so. (Many are.)
Olympic athletes are extremists. Nothing wrong with that. But some things we don’t need even a little bit of. We don’t need a little terrorism. We don’t need a little rape. We don’t need a little polygamy. We don’t need a little forced marriage. We don’t need a little honor killing. We don’t need a little beheading of infidels. Some things do not have to be done to the extreme to be bad. And some things done to the extreme can be good.
So I reject the premise.
And they continue the propaganda in the comparisons. No objectivity at all:
“Trump has embraced aggressive rhetoric... racial profiling and the use of torture.”
“Clinton has offered policies... crack down on propaganda and communication...”
According to AP:
Trump = agressive = racial (i.e. racist) = torture.
Clinton = offered (i.e. has solutions) = stopping hate speech.
They claim the problem is propaganda, and that Hillary would stop it, while they are propagandists.
They claim Hillary is against torture, but she supported the Black Panthers who committed heinous torture and served little prison time. She was and is their advocate.
This is more mind rape by the media. I have a book called “The Rape of the Mind: The Psychology of Thought Control, Menticide, and Brainwashing” by Joost Meerloo. It’s pretty good at examining the psychology of those who have been tortured and subjected to brainwashing and mind control. It was first published in 1956 and describes how the same techniques are used to brainwash societies. And the Democrat / leftist media perfectly fit the description of the abusers.
Articles like this are just one more example of their mind-raping propaganda.
Trump’s agin it.
Isn't that what Obama has been doing? How's that workin' out for us?
Clinton is totally ignorant about Islam.
Was there a case study of McCain in the second edition?
Yeah. I think McCain’s days as a prisoner of war explain his weird affection for treasonous Democrats. He learned to look up to and admire the people who tortured him. So he prides himself on diplomacy toward his political opponents on the left but cannot show the same courtesy to conservatives.
