Has anybody else listened to this entire speech?

It was remarkable, and Trump told the truth to a whole bunch of Islamic leaders, and he even directly cited "Islamic terrorism."

He noted the sacred sites, the potential for increased commerce in the Middle East, the fact that every faith needs to confront terrorism.

[RealJustme]

It was indeed the greatest Middle East speech ever given by an American President. The 50 Middle East leaders in attendance were in awe, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said that Trump has a “unique personality” and is “capable of the impossible.”

Trump didn't have the balls to say Radical Islamic Terrorism.

And he called Islam "one of the world's greatest faiths."

And the righties will be outraged in 3.......2.......1...............................

:lol:

So Elk...what you're saying is the President is no idiot, eh. :lol: :lol: :lol:

[johnforbes]

I believe the word "radical" was not there, but Trump did say "Islamic terrorism" and Obama was too timid and Politically Correct to say those words in any venue.

[johnforbes]

The word Trump used was "extremists" and that choice may have been related to a center to fight extremism which is there.

Trump said extremists and Islamic terrorists needed to be driven from the Middle East, from the faith of Islam, and he added driven from the earth.

It was an excellent, historic speech, and perhaps it will cause Islamic leaders to take out some dirty laundry.

[Dogzilla]

I'm confused. When did he leave the middle east?

[RealJustme]

Yep Dog, you are confused. You OK dude?

[johnforbes]

The speech was among the very best ever given by a US president in a foreign land.

It was an historic call to Islamic leaders to drive out extremists from their lands, their mosques.

And yes, Trump added that extremists should also be driven from the earth.

The cadence was slow to allow interpreters time, but it was an historic speech in the heart of the Islamic world.

[Dogzilla]

You idiots do realize that YOU are extremists, don't you.

No....that wasn't a question.

[johnforbes]

It hardly gets any more moderate than somebody like me who grew up poor doing agricultural labor, served in the military, etc.

Trump's speech was historic because it was a very strong reminder that Islamic moderates need to root out the extremists.

[elklindo69]

Trump claimed last year that "Islam hates us."

Now Trump is saying that Islam is "one of the world's great faiths."

Total Hypocrisy...

I suppose that we will not hear that term "radical Islamic terrorist" again???

:lol: :mrgreen: :lol:

[namngulfvet]

You idiots do realize that YOU are extremists, don't you.

No....that wasn't a question.

In your book maybe. I on the other hand wrote a blank check to my country to defend it with my life. I have also served it via Law Enforcement. Tells Dog shit what have you done for MY country. Are you the typical Socialist Snowflake who feels anyone who owns a business feels 80% should be yours for doing nothing. Are you one of those entitled bitches you see running around the streets with a mask on demanding the USA should give you everything.. Ya I think you are one of those. You defend the Liberal Socialist ways.
