White House staffers appear to have scrubbed the mention of Islamist terrorism from a video of a speech delivered by French President Francois Hollande at a bilateral meeting with President Obama.
According to the White House t***slation of Francois speech, he said the following:
We are also making sure that between Europe and the United States there can be a very high level coordination. But were also well aware that the roots of terrorism, Islamist terrorism, is in Syria and in Iraq. We, therefore, have to act both in Syria and in Iraq, and this is what were doing within the framework of the coalition. And we note that Daesh is losing ground, thanks to the strikes weve been able to launch with the coalition.
But in the White House video, the t***slated portion of his remarks about Islamist terrorism is muted, starting at 4:48 in this video, according to a report posted by the Media Research Center.
Watch the official White House video below:

Hollandes reference to Islamist terror also appears to have been muted in the White House video.
The White Houses edited version of the video also has Hollande saying the following: But were also well aware that the roots of terrorismand we note that Daesh is losing ground thanks to the strikes weve been able to launch with the coalition.
The edit excludes this passage; Islamist terrorism is in Syria and in Iraq. We, therefore, have to act both in Syria and in Iraq, and this is what were doing within the framework of the coalition.
The official video of the remarks posted by the Nuclear Security Summit was not edited, and includes the t***slation of Hollandes remarks referring to Islamist terror.
