Responding to
Yousef's remarks and the audience applause constituted anti-Muslim hate and warranted an apology and repudiation from the summit and its sponsors.
"Could you imagine the uproar that would take place had someone else said the same thing about the Jewish people in the US? And people just clap."
Why we used this label
The rhetorical comparison treats the statement and applause as discriminatory and worthy of public outrage.
