A leading Muslim civil rights group is calling on GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump to apologize for his claim that "Islam hates us."

In an interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper that aired Wednesday night, Trump was asked whether he thinks Islam is at war with the West.

"I think Islam hates us," Trump responded. "There's a tremendous hatred. We have to get to the bottom of it. There is an unbelievable hatred of us."

The statement drew swift condemnation from the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which called on Trump to apologize for the comment, as it has in response to other comments Trump has made.

Sure, right! Trump must apologize immediately!

After all, we all know that Islam is a religion of peace. After the Muslims massacre everyone who is not Muslim, there will be peace.

I heard this guy or someone quoting him saying that since Trump started running for president that millions of Muslims in this country had been attacked. Wow. Does he think people really believe that? Can he name one?

The Islamic “Death to America” rallies might mean something to some people and ignored by others.

Trump is right.

There are scores and scores of millions of Islamics who hate us.

He is calling it or what t is.

That does not mean all Islamics hate us...and he has not said that they do.

If this is true then I would expect millions of them to leave in a huff.

how is that anti-islam comment?

That’s like a muslims saying how dare you say islam is a violent religion and they kills someone.

Speaking truth about islam is offensive?

CAIR and the rest of Muslims celebrate when Israeli’s get slaughtered and Americans die..they have now and will NEVER be a religion of peace, they are ALL about violence. Ask CAIR if they respect Israel’s right to exist, then you will see the look of disgust on their face

Where are the Muslims who take a stand against Muslims who yell, “Death to America! “Death to the Great White Satan!” Kill the Infidels (Everyone who isn’t a Muslim)?

THEY must apologize immediately.
