'Terrorists aren't yelling Jesus Christ': Christians aren't the ones spreading terrorism, Trump adviser says

The whole world is in the grip of fear over recent terrorist attacks in different parts of the world — France, Indonesia, Iraq, Kenya and the United States to name a few.

Who should be blamed for this threat to global peace and security? For the top military adviser of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, Christians are definitely not the ones to be blamed.

In a recent interview with Fox News, retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn was quite straightforward when speaking about terrorism, saying that "political correctness kills."

While saying that terrorism is a complex problem, Flynn implied that Christians are not the ones to be blamed for it.

"You don't have a lot of people yelling 'Jesus Christ' putting a knife in somebody's body or putting a knife in somebody's head," Flynn said, as quoted by The Hill. "This is a different enemy. It's an enemy that we have not, frankly, understood in a couple of administrations, and we definitely don't understand right now."

In a separate interview with The Washington Examiner, Trump's key military adviser also said that law enforcement authorities should be given a freer hand to look for signs that an individual has been radicalised, so that terrorist attacks can be immediately stopped.

"In many cases you find cities where there's a lot of withholding of this idea," Flynn said, "because law enforcement professionals are going to be held back from what they know they need to be doing."

He also urged authorities to do a "serious" study of why terrorist attacks took place in the past, and what exactly happened, so that they will be better prepared for similar future incidents.

"We just have to be really serious about this," Flynn said. "Is it absolutely preventable? Absolutely not. A person who brings a knife to a mall and just starts stabbing people, he's going to do that until somebody actually stops them."
