Donald Trump Slammed by International Leaders after Proposing a Ban on All Muslims

U.S. presidential hopeful and businessman, Donald Trump, is once again under fire for his comments regarding the Muslim community. This time, however, more international leaders are speaking out against Trump.

In Trump's speech Monday night, which came less than one day after President Barack Obama stressed the importance of not letting this become a war between "American and Islam," he proposed "a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on."

The Republican candidate added, "We have no choice."

Trump's remarks came after a radicalized married couple in San Bernardino, California killed 14 people with their guns. Despite the tragic incident, world leaders acknowledged that Trump's proposal is a terrible idea that will hurt communities everywhere.

The French Prime Minister, Manuel Valls, wrote on twitter, "Trump, like others, stokes hatred and conflations: our ONLY enemy is radical Islamism."

The French, who were attacked by the Islamic State on Nov. 13, have urged it allies to strengthen their military offense in Syria, which is one of the countries where the terrorist group, also known as ISIS, is based. They have not pushed for any policies that would segregate the Muslim community.

British Prime Minister, David Cameron, also criticized Trump. His spokeswoman said to reporters, according to The Washington Post, "The prime minister has been very clear that, as we look at how we tackle extremism and this poisonous ideology, what politicians need to do is look at ways they can bring communities together and make clear that these terrorists are not representative of Islam and indeed what they are doing is a perversion of Islam."

She added that Cameron "completely disagrees" with Trump's statements, which he believes are "divisive, unhelpful and quite simply wrong."

Presidential candidates and representatives from both parties in the U.S. have denounced Trump's comments.

Here are some of the comments:

South Carolina GOP chairman, Matt Moore tweeted, "As a conservative who truly cares about religious liberty, Donald Trump's bad idea and rhetoric send a shiver down my spine. American exceptionalism means always defending our inalienable rights, not attacking them when it's politically convenient."

Dick Cheney said that Trump's proposal "goes against everything we stand for and believe in."

In Trump's speech, he did not go into details regarding how he would implement his ban and whether or not it would affect Muslim Americans.
