The Muslim Public Affairs Council, MPAC, has challenged Republican front-runner presidential hopeful Donald Trump to a debate, saying the billionaire businessman has done nothing but incite fear among Americans since heâs taken to the campaign trail and vowing to put a stop to his blunt rhetoric. âEver since you announced your run for presidency of the United States, you have scapegoated the American Muslim community and other minority groups for all your perceived ills of America,â MPAC wrote in a letter to the campaign, the Hill reported. The âStop Hillaryâ campaign is on fire! Join the surging response to this theme: âClinton for prosecution, not presidentâ The group also blasted Trump as being âscared of anything that is different than you.â The comments came on the heels of Trumpâs repeat of a story of U.S. General John Pershing executing Muslim prisoners in the Philippines with bullets âdipped in pigâs blood,â the Hill reported. âYou rely on the promotion of fear and Internet lies to fuel the flames of hate and divisiveness across our country,â the letter went on. âWell, we have news for you. We will no longer be bullied. We will no longer be your punching bag.â MPAC issued the challenge for a debate âon the issues ⦠[heâs] raised about Islam and Muslimsâ right after another well-known Muslim group, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, called Trump out for his comments about the âpigâs bloodâ bullets. âDonald Trumpâs inflammatory rhetoric has crossed the line from spreading hatred to inciting violence,â said Nihad Awad, the national executive director foor the Council on American-Islamic Relations, in a separate statement reported by the Hill. http://wnd.com/2016/02/muslims-warn-trump-to-back-off-the-fi ery-rhetoric/ |
