During a campaign stop in South Carolina former House Speaker and GOP presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich was asked if he could ever support a Muslim American for president. He answered that it would “entirely depend if they give up sharia.”
“I am totally opposed to sharia law,” he added.
“If they are a modern person integrated into the modern world and prepared to recognize all religions that’s one thing,” Gingrich began. “If they are the Saudis who demand that we respect them while they refuse to allow either a Jew or Christian to worship in Saudi Arabia, that’s something different.”
Gingrich also pointed out that the Islamization of Turkey — once a country that prided itself on its Western sense and sensibilities — has resulted in a 1400 percent increase in women’s murders. [WATCH VIDEO]:
