Donald Trump: The Explosion in London Train is the Work of 'Loser Terrorists'

Donald Trump, the President of the United States, on Friday, September 15, called for stricter and clearer bans on the entry of foreign nationals into the U.S. following an explosion of a homemade bomb in a London subway train. According to the Associated Press, Mr. Trump, in an angry tweet, described the London explosion as another attack by 'loser terrorists' and added that the London police missed the opportunity to prevent this incident. He stated that the travel ban for citizens of six Muslim countries should be 'broader, stricter, and more targeted,' but it is foolish that such actions are apparently politically unacceptable. The explosion, which occurred during rush hour on Friday in London, injured at least 22 people, but none of the injuries are serious. The police have stated that this explosion was a terrorist attack. This is the fifth terrorist attack in the UK this year. In his tweet, Mr. Trump wrote: 'Another attack in the city of London by loser terrorists. They are sick and deranged individuals that Scotland Yard knows about. We must be tougher.' Scotland Yard has stated that it will not comment on Mr. Trump's remarks about the police needing to be tougher. The White House also declined to answer whether the President received a report on the details of this attack. Trump's harsh comments came a day after American conservatives criticized him for trying to reach an agreement with Democrats regarding young immigrants living illegally in the country. On Thursday, Mr. Trump said he was very close to an agreement on protecting those who come to America in pursuit of their dreams, but he added that border security, including the issue of building a wall on the Mexican border, would be handled separately. Donald Trump has previously criticized Sadiq Khan, the first Muslim mayor of London, multiple times. After the terrorist attack in the London Bridge area in June that left seven victims, Sadiq Khan urged people not to worry about the increased police presence in the city. At that time, Donald Trump accused the London mayor of trying to say 'there is no reason for people to be worried about this attack.' On Friday, Mr. Trump, in his messages, listed his records in fighting extremist armed groups and said the U.S. government should cut off the internet to such groups. In part of his message on Friday, he said: 'We must deal with loser terrorists more decisively. The internet is their main tool for recruitment, which must be cut off.' He claimed that his administration 'has made more progress in the fight against the so-called Islamic Caliphate in the past nine months than during all eight years of Barack Obama's presidency.' Mr. Trump concluded by saying: 'We must be active and tough.' While the President of the United States refers to his successful performance compared to the eight years of Barack Obama's presidency, the Islamic Caliphate or ISIS was founded in 2014, and the Obama administration only had two years to fight this group. Since the issuance of Trump's first order to limit the entry of citizens from six Muslim countries into the U.S., these regulations have been challenged in judicial forums, and their fate is still unclear. The U.S. Supreme Court is set to announce its final opinion on the ban on the entry of citizens from these six Muslim countries and refugees from other parts of the world on October 10. However, it seems unlikely that the final decision in this matter will be with judicial authorities. The 90-day ban on the entry of citizens from Iran, Syria, Yemen, Libya, Somalia, and Sudan will end in late September, and the 120-day ban on the entry of refugees will also end a month later. The Trump administration has not yet announced whether it will extend or make these bans permanent or whether it will include other countries in this ban.
