Washington Free Beacon: Murphy: Trump Rhetoric Could Lead to Terrorist Attack in U.S.
Sen. Chris Murphy (D., Conn.) is worried that rhetoric from the Trump administration could lead to a major terror attack in the United States.
Appearing Tuesday on CNN, Murphy said that the U.S. needs "a commitment to try to stop giving ISIS recruiters recruitment fodder."
Host Wolf Blitzer asked Murphy for his response to the terrorist attack in Manchester, England during an Ariana Grande concert. The attack killed 22 people, including eight-year-old Saffie Roussos. Murphy said that responses to such an attack required a comprehensive approach.
"We have got to complement this military strategy with increased intelligence, increased intelligence sharing with Europe, and a commitment to try to stop giving ISIS recruiters recruitment fodder," Murphy said, emphasizing his belief that enemies of ISIS were providing such fodder.

WNU Editor: For almost ten years this blog has been covering extensively the ongoing war against radical Islam and the terror attacks that these terror groups perpetuate .... President Trump was not a factor then for ISIS or any other radical group to recruit followers, and he is not a factor today. This U.S. Senator's belief that it is rhetoric from people like President Trump that inspires others to join these Jihadist organisations tells me that he does not understand the history of Jihad, and he certainly does not understand why people have been motivated for decades to join groups like ISIS or Al Qaeda.
Here is another example on how appalling the main stream media is in covering radical Islam. After years of covering terrorism, war, etc. .... and God only knows how many news stories have been done on the treatment of women by Boko Haram, the Taliban, and other Islamic groups, etc. .... the Washington Post has finally figured out that there is a strain of misogyny in Islam .... Some in Manchester, and beyond, see the attack as one that targeted women and girls (Washington Post).
