Donald Trump revels plan to defeat Islamic State

TIL Desk/World/Youngstown-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has said that the era of nation building should come to an end, as he laid out a foreign policy approach to deal with the Islamic State militant group and radical Islam.

“If I become president, the era of nation-building will be brought to a very swift and decisive end. Our new approach — which must be shared by both parties in America, by our allies overseas and by our friends in the Middle East — must be to halt the spread of radical Islam,” Trump said in a major policy speech on defeating radical Islam in Ohio.

 “All actions should be oriented around this goal and any country which shares this goal will be our ally. Some don’t share this goal. We cannot always choose our friends but we can never fail to recognise our enemies,” he said. “As president, I will call for an international conference focused on this goal. We will work side by side with our friends in the Middle East, including our greatest ally Israel. We will partner with King Abdullah of Jordan and the president of Egypt, President Sisi, and all others who recognise this ideology of death that must be extinguished,” Trump said.
