On Friday's broadcast of his HBO show, Bill Maher interviewed anti-Muslim extremism activist and President of the Council for Muslims Facing Tomorrow Raheel Raza. When his infamous brawl with Ben Affleck came up at the beginning, Maher joked "Who?"
"I've bent over backwards trying to have the other side when what I should be doing is going more voice to people like yourself," Maher said. "You say, 'I don't need celebrities defending me, I need defense against people in my own religion who want to kill me.'"
"Absolutely," she said. "And this is going to add to that list, by the way. They see me on your show. Just so you know."
"I think it is very important to note that you live in Canada," Maher said...

True enough. At least for me.
He has hit hard on this one thing a number of times.
other than that I HATE him.
even Sheila Lee stood up for vets today and I don’t hate her.
I could picture he as my lovable grandma with early dementia in my family.
though she doesn’t really look italian
Will they choose someone who said Islamic terrorism is because Muslims were taunted?
I’m confused. The other candidates have used the term “Islamic Terrorism.” Yes, Donald has, but so have the others.
In a country that elected obongo twice, and currently gives him a high favorability rating... I would not bank on voters making rational decisions.
No, they haven't. It's been a huge point, too.
I don't think you're confused one bit.
Trump is right here. It should just be Islamic Terrorism. Call it what it is.
Cruz has used the term many times.

Great tagline, noob! ;)
I think he is talking about Trump vs. Hillary in the general...not the primaries.
See post #8.
The only difference between an Islamic terrorist and a radical Islamic terrorist is how the two terms would be alphabetically sorted. Would you really think less of Trump if he used the second term?
None of the current Republican candidates have a problem calling Islamic terrorism exactly what it is, unlike the present administration. What is the point on being divisive about a point we and the candidates all agree upon?
Trump has no monopoly on saying “islamic terrorists”. I think all or most pub candidates say it including Ted Cruz.
Also I don’t necessarily buy the premise of the article title that they will flock to the pub candidate simply because he says “islamic terrorist” — seeing how the American voters voted in BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA TWICE!
Wrong. The latter phrase supports the idea of its opposite being moderate Islam, which is the Big Lie that is being used to seduce the country into letting in Muslims intending to commit mass murder and introduce sharia law.
Read your own book dude.
