Newt Gingrich wants to ‘test’ every Muslim in the U.S. after Nice attack
- 8 years ago
Following the attack in Nice that killed at least 84 people, former House speaker Newt Gingrich has called for deporting everyone in America with a Muslim background who believes in sharia law.
“Western civilization is in a war.
We should frankly test every person here who is of a Muslim background and if they believe in sharia they should be deported,” Gingrich told Fox News’ Sean Hannity.
Hannity asked how the government could be certain if someone coming to America from a country that practices Sharia could “really want” a new life.
“Monitor the mosques,” Gingrich said.
Gingrich also said that the attack in Nice is the “fault of Western elites who lack the guts to do what is right, to do what is necessary,".
