As part of proposed new measures, Trump promised 'the largest deportation effort in history'

Former US President Donald Trump has vowed to support Israel and to keep radical terrorists out of America, if he returns to power in next year’s election.

While speaking at a rally in Iowa Trump discussed introducing ‘ideological screening’ to the US’s immigration system, in order to root out terrorist sympathisers.


“When I'm back in the Oval Office, we will cut off every penny of money that we send to the Palestinians and the terrorists.

“On day one, we will fully support Israel in defeating, dismantling and permanently destroying the terrorist group known as Hamas.”

On how the events in Israel will affect the US, Trump said, “The atrocities in Israel are a horrific reminder that immigration security is truly national security. It really is. We have people coming into our country now that are the same people, in many cases, as did what they did two weeks ago in Israel.

“The purpose of US immigration law is not to protect the world, it's to protect the United States of America. We have to protect our own country.”

Speaking about how Trump’s new proposed system would work, the former President explained, “I will immediately reinstate and expand the wildly successful Trump travel ban on entry from terror plagued countries, territories and places.”

“We'll implement strong ideological screening of all immigrants to the United States. No longer will we allow dangerous lunatics, haters, bigots and maniacs to get residency in our country. We're not going to let them stay here. We're going to have the largest deportation effort in history.”

Trump also took the opportunity for a dig at political opponent, and current President, Joe Biden.

“You're disqualified if you're a Communist, a Marxist or a fascist, other than the people that are already here, of which many are in the Biden administration.

“In addition, we will aggressively deport resident aliens with jihadist sympathies. We have to. This isn't like being Mr. Nice Guy. We're going to have a country that's going to be blown to shreds because bad things are happening.

“We cannot forget that the same people that attacked Israel are right now pouring in at levels that nobody can believe into our beautiful USA through our totally open border and southern border.”

Trump also joined the chorus of voices speaking out and condemning those who support Hamas’s actions against Israel.

“In the wake of the attacks on Israel, Americans have been disgusted to see the open support for terrorists among the legions of foreign nationals on college campuses. They're teaching your children hate.

“Under the Trump administration we will revoke the student visas of radical anti-American and anti-Semitic foreigners in our colleges and universities and we will send them straight back home.

“The barbarians that we saw on the streets of New York and other cities last week have no place in America. We can't have it!”
