The president of the University of Wisconsin’s Muslim Student Association applauded the part President Barack Obama’s terrorism speech making clear ISIS did not speak for Islamic faith followers.
“President Obama is telling people to not give into the fear,” said Hani Rustom. “That is when he said ‘that’s exactly what ISIS wants.’ I think he hit it right on the head, because ISIS wants that fear so that people have that anti-Muslim sentiment. That if we, as an American community unite against that sort of thing, I think it will go a long way.”
