Updated with video of the speech:
Trump starts at 24:00.

Watch live. Trump is speaking to the Islamic Summit in Saudi Arabia now, calling upon them to stand with the U.S. against terrorism.
“This is not a battle between different faiths…”
All this is very well if he allows law enforcement and intelligence agencies to study and understand the motivating ideology of jihad terrorists. But this is not a good sign that he will.
“We will discard the strategies that have not worked,” he said. Now that’s rich.
I unavoidably tuned in late. According to a report, he said that moving toward peace “means honestly confronting the crisis of Islamist extremism and the Islamist terror groups it inspires. And it means standing together against the murder of innocent Muslims, the oppression of women, the persecution of Jews, and the slaughter of Christians.” That is more encouraging. We shall see how things develop.
