Hillary Clinton Says ISIS Is Using Trump as a Recruiting Tool. Is She Right?
“They follow everything Donald Trump says,” Rita Katz of the SITE Intelligence Group, an organization that keeps tabs on the social media activities of Islamic terrorist groups, told NBC News. “When he says, ‘No Muslims should be allowed in America,’ they tell people, ‘We told you America hates Muslims and here is proof.’”
That sentiment has been reflected widely by foreign policy and national security experts and journalists: David Phillips, director of the Program on Peace-Building and Rights at Columbia University’s Institute for the Study of Human Rights, told NBC that Trump’s comments “will surely be used by ISIS social media to demonize the United States and attract recruits to fight in Iraq and Syria.” And Ted Koppel, on ABC’s Nightline, called Trump ISIS’s “recruiter-in-chief.”
So in the big picture, Clinton’s comments fall in line with the view of many national security experts. What’s not clear, and what’s not referenced by any of the media accounts the Clinton camp provided, is whether the organization is specifically screening videos of the attacks—which a literal reading of Clinton’s comments would imply.

They are twisting it to make it sound like its a premier movie, you can infer that they're using comments and social media to show his opinion as the leading Republican candidate. Its not unlike what is done here or Facebook or YouTube or various other sites, some that are hijacked by hate groups or others, to promote their points of view. Being fixated on the word screening makes them miss the point

been an in-artfull (is this even a word?--although Republicans have used it and supposed I should not use it) way of getting her point across. I have seen several comments--nasty ones on the net and twitter about that comment. We know Hillary can not even go to the bathroom and be a minute late without the internet and DU blowing up. But as you say--Hillary has it!
