Islamist Extremists: Trump’s Victory is an Important Step towards the Victory of the Sunnis

money.cnn.com

Jihadis have welcomed Donald Trump’s victory in the American presidential race, saying his election would sow greater division and expose what they described as the hatred and racism of the west towards Muslims, The Guardian reports.

The endorsement of the election result by extreme Islamist figures highlighted fears that Trump’s divisive rhetoric and call to ban Muslims from entering the US could empower radicals who have argued that the west seeks Islam’s destruction and is at war with its adherents.

 "Trump’s victory is an important step towards the victory of the Sunnis," said Abdullah al-Muhaisny, a key authority among radical circles in Syria, who is believed by the US to be in league with al-Qaida.

Muhaisny said Trump’s victory will lay the groundwork for "bloody battles and great chaos," saying he hoped the president-elect’s strategy of "exclusion and crushing opponents" will sow greater division in America.
