Terrorism is an important issue for many American voters. The two major political party nominees for president have presented plans for protecting the country from the terrorist threat. Both Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and Republican nominee Donald Trump say they want to defeat the Islamic State, or IS, terrorist group. They also both say they want to stop the radicalization of young people in the United States. Their plans for reaching their goals differ, however. Clinton says the battle against IS must include an increase in air attacks, and support for local Kurdish and Arab ground forces. She also calls for finding a diplomatic solution to the civil conflicts in Iraq and Syria. She says the conflicts have helped the rise of ISIS. Clinton promises to work with U.S. allies to defeat terror networks. She says she will also work closely with the Muslim-American community. And, she plans to give more resources to law enforcement to help stop terrorist plots. Trump says he wants to put in place stronger border controls to stop terrorists from entering the country.
