So here we are. We're back. It's a Monday. I did survive Missouri. Clearly, we'll talk about that.

We will also talk about President Obama and his quest to keep us from overreacting to the threat of radical Islamic terror.

I'm Ben Shapiro. This is the Ben Shapiro show.

Tend to demonize people who don't care about your feelings.

All right, so here we are. It is a Monday. And, of course, President Obama continues to whine about overreactions by the West to radical Islamic terror. And now we have this whole narrative about how Republicans are deeply Islamophobic. We're all Islamophobic. And of course, the chief offender is Donald Trump. Last Friday, if you weren't around, Donald

Trump was asked by a reporter at NBC if he supported the idea of a Muslim registry or a Muslim

database for people living inside the United States. He apparently thought that they were talking

about new people entering the United States. Of course, we do have such databases. They're called

Visa Systems. And he said, yeah, we should have such a database. And everybody took it like he wanted to make Muslims wear crescents in the streets and such. There was no evidence that he actually wanted to do any of this, but Trump didn't openly repudiate this, even though it wasn't his idea in the first place. And so obviously he's an Islamophob.

ISIS. So what are you so worried about with all this Islamic stuff? It really is just that you're a

racism and your religious bigotry. John Kerry, the Secretary of State, he's most famous

for having a face that looks like lurch and an IQ that rivals some of the more

uprashelon vegetables. John Kerry, he said that ISIS will be defeated. This comes shortly after

last week's statements by the State Department and President Obama that ISIS wouldn't be defeated,

that instead we would just degrade them, or that it would be too much to assume that they were going to

be defeated in the near term.

John Kerry, the administration, they've realized that this is bad rhetoric. So now they're saying ISIS will definitely be defeated. Here is John Kerry, the Secretary of State.

I believe ISIS is going to be defeated. ISIS is not 10 feet tall. I have absolute confidence

that as we increase what we are doing today, as there

is more focus, I'm just in Abu Dhabi now. We've just had serious meetings here. I'm about
