that intends to do other people harm. we should give atf the resources they need to enforce the gun laws we already have. people with possible ties with terrorism who are not allowed on a plane, should not be allowed to buy a gun. i'm talking about being tough on terrorism. actually be tough on terrorism and stop making it easy for terrorists to buy assault weapons. reinstate the assault weapon ban and make it harder to use these weapons to kill us. otherwise despite extraordinary efforts across our government by local law enforcement. by our intelligence agencies and our military, and despite all the sacrifices that folks make, these kinds of events will keep

on happening. and the weapons are only going to get more powerful. and let me make a final point, for a while now the main contribution of some of my friends on the either side of the aisle made against the fight against isol, is criticize my administration and me for not using the phrase radical islam. that is the key. we cannot beat isol unless we call them radical islamist. what exactly who using this label accomplish? what exactly would it change? would it make isol less committed to trying to kill americans? would it bring in more allies?

is there a military strategy that is served by this? the answer is none of the above. calling a threat by a different name does not make it go away. this is a political distraction. since before i was president i have been clear about extremist groups have perverted islamist groups to promote terrorism and i have called on our allies around the world to reject this twisted interpretation of one of the world's great religions. there is not been a moment in my on.even and a half years as n my president where we have not been able to pursue a strategy

because he didn't use the label radical islam. not once has an adviser of mine said if we use that phrase we'll turn this well thing around. turnadot once. thing around. so someone seriously thinks that we don't know who we are fighting? if there is anyone out there that thinks we are confused about who our enemies are? that would come as a surprise to the thousands of terrorists we have take ep off the battlefield. if the implication is that those of us up here and the thousands of people around the country and world are working to defeat isol are not taking the fight

seriously, that would come as a surprise to those that except the last seven and a half years dismantled isol including the men and women that put their lives at risk and are now on the ground in iraq and syria. they know full well who the enemy is. so do the intelligence and law enforcement officers who esept counpbess hours disrupting plots and protecting all morns. including politicians who is they know who the nature of the enemy is. on.o there is no magic to the phrase, radical islam. it's a political talking point.

it'sadot a stratestrat.g point. and the reason i am careful -- they want to claim that they are the true leaders of over a billion muslims around the world that reject their crazy notions. they want us to validate them by implying that they speak for those billion plus people. that they speak for islam. that is their propaganda, that

is how they recruit. if we fall into the trap of painting all muslims with a broad brush, and imply that we are at war an entire religion, then we are doing the terrorist work for them. up until this point that argument about labels is mostly just partisan rhetoric and sadly we have all become acustomed to that kind of partnership even when it involves the fight against these extremist groups. and that kind of yapping has not prevented folks across government from doing their jobs. from sacrificing and working

hard to protect the american people. but we are now seeing how dangerous this kind of mind set and this kind of thinking can be. we are starting to see where this kind of rhetoric and loose talk and sloppiness about who exactly we are fighting, where this can lead us. we now have proposals from the presumptive nominee for the republican party to be president of the united states for barring all muslims from coming to the united states. it suggests entire religious communities are complicity in violence. where does this stop? the orlando killer, one of the

san bernardino killers, the ft. hood killer, they were all u.s. citizens. are we going to start treating all muslim americans differently? are we going to start subjecting them to special surveillance and start to discriminate against them because of their faith? we heard these suggestions during the course of this campaign. do republican officials actually agree with this? because that is not the america be want. it doesn't reflect our democratic ideals. it won't make us more safe it will make us less safe. fueling isol's notion that the

west hates muslims. making young muslims in this country and around the world feel like month matter what they do they'll be under suspicion and under attack. it makes muslim americans feel like their government is betraying them. it betrays the very values that america stands for. we have gone through moments in our history before when we acted out of fear and we came to regret it. we have seen our government miss treat our fellow citizens. and it has been a shameful part

of our history. this is a country founded on basic freedoms, including freedom of religion, we don't have religious tests here. our founders, our constitution and our bill of rights, are clear about that. if we ever abandon those values we would not only make it easier to radicalize people here and around the world but we would have betrayed the very things we are trying to protect. the pluralism and the openness are rule of law, our civil liberties, the very things that make this country great and things that make us exceptional and the terrorists would have won. we cannot let that happen. i will not let that happen.

to weeks ago i was at the commencement ceremony at the air force academy, and it could not have been more inspiring, to see these young people stepping up dedicated to serve this country and part of what was inspiring was the incredible diversity of the cadets. we saw cadets that were straight applauding classmates that were openly gay. we saw cadets born here in america applauding classmates that came to the country and loved it so much we the wanted to be part of our armed forces and applaud cadets that were proud patriotic muslim americans, serving their country

uniform ready to lay their lives down to protect you and to protect me. we saw males applauding female classmates that can now serve in combat positions that is the american military. that is america. one team. one nation. those are the values that isol is trying to destroy. we shouldn't help them do it. our diversity and respect for one another, our drawing of the talents of everyone in this country are making sure are making sure we are treating everybody fairly. that we are not judging people on the basis of what faith they are or what race they are.

or what ethnicity are or sexual orientation is. that is what makes this country great. that is the spirit we see in orlando. that is the unity and resolve that will allow us to defeat isol. that is what will preserve our values and ideals and define us as americans. that is how we are going to defend this nation and how we defend our way of life. thank you very much. >> you have been listening to president barack obama talking about first orlando massacre and then the war against isis and a passionate president talking
