Obama warns Americans against blaming Islam for terrorism

Washington D.C., Dec. 13 : US President Barack Obama has warned Americans to refrain from blaming Islam for terrorism and said that ISIS and other terror groups were depicting the fight against terrorism as a war between Islam and the West.

According to the Dawn, it was Obama’s third address to his nation since last week’s terrorist attack in San Bernardino, California, in which 14 Americans were killed.

Terrorist attacks in San Bernardino and in Paris, last month, have increased anti-Muslim feelings in the West.

Obama claimed that from Democrats to Republicans, liberals and conservatives, Americans are standing up, forcefully, to religious bigotry across the political spectrum. (ANI)
