London’s Mayor Sadiq Khan Wants To Educate Trump On Islam

8200MEP: London’s new Muslim Mayor Sadiq Khan has invited the Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump to England’s capital city to “educate” him about Islam.

Khan, the son of a Pakistani immigrant bus driver, in an interview with NBC News on Friday, said “Trump’s “ignorant” views on Islam were “inadvertently playing into the hands of extremists” who prey on young Muslims.”

 “I want Trump to come to London so I can introduce myself to him as a mainstream Muslim, very, very comfortable with Western liberal values, but also introduce him to hundreds of thousands, dare I say millions of Muslims in this country, who love being British, love being Western,” the mayor added.

“I want to educate Donald Trump. I want to show him that you can be Muslim and be Western,” said Khan.

In December, Trump called for a “total and complete” ban on Muslims entering the United States after a deadly mass shooting in San Bernardino, California, which was inspired by the Daesh (ISIL) terrorist group.

Trump this week said his proposed ban on Muslims entering the U.S. was “only a suggestion” and told the New York Times that he was “happy” about Khan’s election.

He also told the Times that the Khan could be an exception to the ban.
