Cruz invokes thoroughly debunked myth to explain Brussels attack
[su_center_b]
Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz renewed his call to monitor Muslim neighborhoods on Monday, blaming nonexistent “no go zones” in Europe for allowing terrorists to plot the attacks that killed more than 30 people…
“One of the causes of this horror has been European bureaucrats restraining law enforcement from fully engaging with the Muslim community in ‘no go’ zones,” Cruz wrote. “As a result, for years, a radical, theocratic, violent ideology has spread in some mosques and Muslim neighborhoods throughout Europe. Terrorists have exploited these isolated enclaves to recruit followers, formulate plots and orchestrate attacks.”
The idea that extremists are creating “no go zones,” or areas in Europe and the United States governed by sharia law where non-Muslims are barred from entering, has been thoroughly debunked.
