'America Must Unite The Whole Civilized World In The Fight Against Islamic Terrorism'

Those are Trump's words from a few months ago -- echoed by Sam Harris' words. I'm reposting a clip from several months ago:

And Sam Harris is no fan of Donald Trump.

What Trump said today was:
Today there were terror attacks in Turkey, Switzerland and Germany – and it is only getting worse. The civilized world must change thinking!  These terrorists and their regional and worldwide networks must be eradicated from the face of the earth, a mission we will carry out with all freedom-loving partners.

'America Must Unite The Whole Civilized World In The Fight Against Islamic Terrorism'


Sam Harris is not on my bucket list of people to meet but I agree with his assessment of Trump vs. Hillary.

Of course, if you're a Trump=Hitler believer, I can see your dilemma.

"Maher and Ben Affleck Battle over Radical Islam"

"Ben Affleck, Bill Maher, Nicholas Kristol, Michael Steele, and author Sam Harris got into what could only be described as a tumultuous continuation of Maher’s comments on Islam from last week, with Maher and Affleck tearing into each other over the influence of fundamentalists in the Muslim community."
“We have been sold this meme of Islamophobia, where criticism of the religion gets conflated with bigotry towards muslims as people,” Harris began. “It’s intellectually ridiculous.”

“Hold on — are you the person who officially understands the codified doctrine of Islam?” Affleck, on the show to promote his movie Gone Girl, interrupted, and argued that criticizing Islam, as Maher and Harris were doing it, was “gross and racist. It’s like saying, ‘Oh, you shifty Jew!’” 
You get the picture...
