U.S. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is dismissing his persona being featured in a recruitment video made by the Somali militant group al-Shabab. Mr Trump asked. "I have to say what I have to say".
"I've predicted a lot of things, you have to say, including, 'Get the oil, take the oil, keep the oil.' Right?"
"Now people are getting involved" in the issue, he told CBS News.
Asked for a response, Trump told CBS yesterday, "What am I going to do? I have to say what I have to say", he continued. John, maybe it's not politically correct, there's a big problem out there and we have to solve the problem.
Appearing on multiple shows Sunday, Trump addressed the recruitment video which features a clip of the business mogul speaking at a campaign rally and calling for a moratorium on Muslims entering the country in the wake of recent terrorist attacks worldwide, including in the U.S.
The video also makes an appeal to the Black Lives Matter movement, taking advantage of trumped-up racial tensions over so-called police brutality to urge young blacks to convert to Islam.
Trump's inflammatory remarks last month sparked global outrage.
Mr Trump accused her of lying, but Ms Clinton's spokeswoman insisted that his remarks were "being used in social media by ISIS as propaganda". You look all over the world, they're shutting down cities that never had a problem before. "We also need to defeat this narrative that allows them to recruit people", Rhodes said. Other Republicans, the White House, and the British Prime Minister David Cameron were highly critical of the comments, which followed the San Bernardino massacre, in which 14 people died.
Sound bites... terror group al-Shabaab has used a clip of Donald Trump in a recruitment video.
Trump ripped into Hillary Clinton again during the "Face the Nation" interview, accusing her of causing "tremendous death with incompetent decisions" when she served as US secretary of state under Obama from 2009-13.
In the Shebab video, the Trump soundbite is preceded by a speech by the late Anwar al-Awlaki, a US-born radical imam, calling on Muslims in America to "flee the oppressive Western atmosphere for the lands of Islam". "I don't like changing anything".
"We should build, like, institutions for people that are sickos", Trump said. "I have a real good feeling with Iowa", he said.
