Donald J. Trump said Saturday that he would order surveillance “of certain mosques” to combat terrorism after the Paris attacks and claimed to have watched as “thousands and thousands of people were cheering” while the World Trade Center towers fell on Sept. 11, 2001.
In a rally at the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex in Birmingham, Ala., Mr. Trump, who is seeking the Republican presidential nomination, dismissed accounts of his apparent support for creating a registry of Muslims in the United States as an effort by the news media to entrap him. He then seemed to clarify that idea on Saturday, saying he wanted a database of refugees entering the country from Syria, and adding, to cheers, “I want surveillance of certain mosques, O.K.?”
“We’ve had it before and we’ll have it again,” he added. Mr. Trump has recently spoken of the New York Police Department’s use of informants in mosques after the Sept. 11 attacks.
