Biden criticized US political leaders who have been calling for a temporary ban on Muslims entering the United States or registering Muslims in a database.
He said the Islamic State wants to create, a clash of civilizations that will drive more Muslims to join the caliphate.
"What amazes me about our political leadership across the board is they don't understand that.
What they are fomenting is exactly what the people they are condemning most want to happen."
"I asked my mother if she would ever consider removing her hijab.
Her response?
No. If people are so concerned about the Muslims in America they are talking about making us wear badges.
Well, I guess I have my badge. My hijab is my badge."
Acts of terror happen because there are those who are willing to do them.
And then there are those who are willing to be silent.
Today, we are addressing the silence by standing together and all saying this is simply not us.
We must always stand together."
