Trump: We need to register all Muslims

This is a new low, even for Donald Trump:

"All Muslims living in the United States might be forced to register their personal information in a federal database if Donald Trump is elected president.

On Thursday night, the billionaire Republican presidential candidate told an NBC reporter that all American Muslims “have to be” required to registered in a database in the wake of deadly terror attacks in Paris and Beirut. The attacks were carried out by ISIS, a group that proclaims itself to be Islamic — though many Muslims and religious scholars disagree that the group can be credibly considered part of the religion.

“I would certainly implement that — absolutely,” Trump said when asked about forcing registration of the 5 million to 12 million Muslims living in America."

I wonder how The Donald came up with this brilliant plan?

But Trump is now leading all Republican candidates among likely voters and has a very energetic base of loyal supporters.

As far as ISIS is concerned, Trump would probably do more against them than Obama. If the French decide to join Putin in Syria, you know who to blame.

Why won't Germany join the fight against ISIS? Easier to sit on the sideline and point fingers I guess.

It's not about joining the fight, many nations including Germany have done that already. It's about the lead role in that fight. President Hollande will pay a visit to Washington next Tuesday, then to Moscow. He needs substantial results, otherwise Marine Le Pen's Front National might become the winner at the regional elections this december. ISIS is not an amateur terrorist group, as Obama said, and Al Qaeda ist not defeated, as Kerry said.

So what will Obama offer Hollande? For Putin, again, it is a win-win situation. France and other NATO member will be forced to accept Assad as the lesser evil and join or at least tolerate the Russian-Iranian alliance. Putin might even wait for the result of the next elections in France - and Hollande knows it.

It's about Russia or the USA.
Not about Germany.
