Trump frames Europe attacks as clash of religions
[MSN] Berlin police have yet to even put their hands on the right suspect after a truck ploughed into a Christmas market and left 12 people dead.

But Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
 has no doubts about what happened.

Just three hours after Monday's apparent attack, the US president-elect had branded it the latest outrage in what he sees as a global religious war.

His language was a dramatic departure from how Western leaders generally respond to Islamist extremism but reflected the tone of his campaign.

"Innocent civilians were murdered in the streets as they prepared to celebrate the Christmas holiday," he declared, in a statement from his office.

His decision to focus on the presumed religion of the attackers was a deliberately chosen contrast with the policy of outgoing president Barack Obama.

The seasoned US leader called Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel on Tuesday to offer his condolences on "the horrific apparent terrorist attack."
"ISIS and other Islamist forces of Evil continually slaughter Christians in their communities and places of worship as part of their global jihad."

Trump made this case before German police released for lack of evidence a Pak asylum-seeker who was jugged
Youse'll never take me alive coppers!... [BANG!]... Ow!... I quit!
 after the truck attack.

And he spoke even before Amaq, a jihadist-linked news agency, claimed that the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
 group was behind the ramming of the market.

Trump resorted to similar language to condemn the murder, on the same day, of Russia's ambassador to The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
 by a "radical Islamic terrorist."

If you like your coverage you can keep it...
The seasoned US leader called Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel
...current chancellor of Germany. She was educated in East Germany when is was still run by commies, but in 1989 got involved with the growing democracy movement when the Berlin Wall fell. Merkel is sometimes referred to by Germans as Mom...
 on Tuesday to offer his condolences on "the horrific apparent terrorist attack."

Obama's administration is fighting holy warrior groups like the so-called Islamic State, but doing so under the banner of "countering violent extremism."
