...And you know how pro-American Middle Eastern Muslims usually are. I understand he has a beef with Trump but is there any actual evidence of this happening? Which Middle Eastern countries are seeing protests over what one guy in one party’s primary in the United States may or may not have said about a registry of Muslims? More specifically, which Muslims who weren’t already inclined to dislike America for other reasons have suddenly tilted towards disapproval now that Trump can’t stop talking about celebrations in New Jersey on 9/11? The bitter irony of this clip, of which every dove reading this is already aware, is that McCain’s brand of interventionism in the region has doubtless alienated many, many, many more Muslims than Trump has in his interviews. You can get a taste of that in this tracker of favorable views of America over the past 15 years published in June by Pew:
Lebanon is complicated because it’s multisectarian but the Sunni states — Turkey, Jordan, and the Palestinian territories — all saw a dive circa 2003, the year the U.S. invaded Iraq, with only modest recovery since. (European opinion also dropped and has yet to come all the way back in Germany and the UK from its 1999-2000 high.) American intervention in the region is a staple of jihadi propaganda when recruiting, as a casus belli to either remove the Crusaders from the region or to fight the Shiites brought to power by the Americans in Baghdad. None of which is to say that intervention is wrong per se — you might conclude that removing Saddam was worth risking all of that — but you might want to ease off on pointing fingers about risking damage to Muslim opinion...

I’m 100% certain that it is the teachings of Islam that are turning Muslims against us.
BTTT
This man keeps getting re-elected.
Only 4 or 5 more times. His Mother after all is 103 (will be 104 on Februyar 6, 2016) and he is a spry 79. So we are stuck with him for a long time yet. Ugh.
Again, MeCain sounding like a Democrat.
And if it does, so what?

A very few of the more well known attacks muzzies have made on America. Just explain this to me, Ogre McCain and while your at it--you can go straight to ... just go home, retire and leave us all alone. You've done enough harm. *spit*
Sit down, John. You’re senile.
The Khobar Towers bombing in the 1980s, the destruction of our embassy in Africa in the 1990s, the first World Trade Center attack ... all of this happened before Trump came on the political stage, and all of it was driven by the same political/religious war edict in Islam - convert, kill or subjugate the infidel.
I want to hear the creeking

of their rotting corpses.
McCain CANNOT the TRUTH!
He cannot it? He frop out it?
The "OTNE" Lord declares it?
Derp.
Correction: McCain CANNOT TELL the TRUTH!
THERE FIXED IT!
They were already “against us”, Juan...Trump’s just prodding them to stand up and reveal their hate to the world.
McCain was senile twenty years ago; he’s been going downhill ever since.
McCain is a Marxist.
In other words: He sees all negative behavior in Third World, rape-culture countries as induced by Western Christian wickedness. If we in the West will just capitulate, the “threat” of Communism, Islam, etc., will just evaporate.
Enoch was the first to say Marnatha how cool right?
Amen!
