Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has praised Israel’s “unbelievable job” of identifying potential terrorists through profiling, in the wake of terrorist attacks in Minnesota, New York and New Jersey.

In a phone interview with “Fox & Friends,” Trump said that US police are afraid to consider religion or ethnicity when identifying suspects as potential terrorists.

“Our police are amazing. Our local police, they know who a lot of these people are,” Trump said.“They’re afraid to do anything about it because they don’t want to be accused of profiling and they don’t want to be accused of all sorts of things.

“You know, in Israel they profile. They’ve done an unbelievable job, as good as you can do. They see somebody that’s suspicious, they will profile. They will take that person and they’ll check out.”

On Saturday evening, 29 people were wounded when a bomb went off on a street in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood. Earlier the same day, an explosion ripped through a garbage can near a Marine Corps charity run in New Jersey.

A naturalized American of Afghani descent — 28-year-old Ahmad Khan Rahami — was arrested by police in New Jersey in connection with the bombs.

Meanwhile, ISIS claimed responsibility for the mass stabbing attack at a mall in Minnesota on Saturday, in which nine people were wounded.
