Also suggested Mr Trump is hurting the US chances of building coalition

Hillary Clinton ripped into Donald Trump at a Democratic presidential candidates' debate last night over his plan to ban Muslim immigrants.

'He is becoming ISIS's best recruiter,' she claimed. 'They are going to people showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists.'

Mrs Clinton said that Americans need to work more closely with the Muslim community in their country because 'they will be our early warning signal' against possible terrorist attacks.

'That's why we need to work with them, not demonize them, as the Republicans have been doing,' Mrs Clinton said.

The Clinton campaign did not respond to DailyMail.com's request for evidence of the former secretary of state's claim about Mr Trump and ISIS recruitment.

In response to The Blaze, however, the campaign pointed to a report from NBC News in which experts on the topic said ISIS and Al Qaeda were making Mr Trump the poster child for anti-Islamic behaviour in the West and using his words to lure in new recruits.

Rita Katz from the Site Intelligence Group, a social media monitoring organization, said radical jihadists 'follow everything Donald Trump says'.

'When he says, "No Muslims should be allowed in America,?" they tell people, "We told you America hates Muslims and here is proof,"' Ms Katz stated.

Other specialists quoted did not say Mr Trump's rhetoric was directly at play. Rather, one said it 'will surely be used.'

A Muslim advocacy group further accused Mr Trump of 'doing the work of ISIS' but no claims of propaganda videos were made.

The Blaze said the Clinton campaign also passed along this tweet trashing Mr Trump from what it reportedly described as 'a very vocal ISIS supporter' in support of Mrs Clinton's claim.

Mrs Clinton went on to say in the debate that backers of Mr Trump's plan 'are understandably reacting out of fear and anxiety about what they're seeing' with respect to last month's Paris massacre and the shooting in San Bernardino, California on December 2.

Mr Trump has a great capacity to use bluster and bigotry to inflame people and to make them think there are easy answers to very complex questions, she said.

Americans should be focused on detecting and reporting suspicious behaviour and making sure that 'Muslim Americans don't feel left out or marginalised at the very moment when we need their help'.

'We need to make sure that the really discriminatory messages that Trump is sending around the world don't fall on receptive ears,' she declared.

Former Maryland governor Martin O'Malley told an anecdote about the damage he thought Mr Trump's rhetoric was doing, mentioning a Muslim doctor in Maryland who was tucking his two sons into bed.

'And one of his little boys said to him, "Dad, what happens if Donald Trump wins and we have to move out of our home?"' Mr O'Malley said. 'These are very, very real issues, this is a clear and present danger in our politics within.'

'We need to speak to what unites us as a people: freedom of worship, freedom of religion, freedom of expression and we should never be convinced to give up those freedoms in exchange for a promise of greater security,' Mr O'Malley continued.

'Especially from someone as untried and incompetent as Donald Trump,' he added.

On the flip side, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders was asked about a neighbour of the San Bernardino shooters who believed the Muslim couple was acting questionably, but did not report them to the police because she didn't want to racially profile.

'Obviously if you see suspicious activity, you report it. That's kind of a no brainier,' he said. 'Somebody's loading guns and ammunition into a house, I think it's a good idea to call 911. Do it.'

Because of the San Bernardino shootings, the candidates once again had the opportunity to show their differences of opinion on the topic of gun control, which has produced heated moments in previous Democratic debates.

This time around, it was Mr O'Malley who got loud.

'ISIL videos, ISIL training videos are telling lone wolves the easiest way to buy a combat assault weapon in America is at a gun show,' the former governor said.

'And it's because of the flip-flopping, political approach of Washington that both of my two colleagues on this stage have represented there for the last forty years,' he said, smacking Mrs Clinton and Mr Sanders.

'He is becoming ISIS 's best recruiter. They are going to people showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists Hillary Clinton

'Whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's calm down a little bit, Martin,' Mr Sanders responded.

'Yes, let's tell the truth, Martin,' Mrs Clinton said.

When it was his turn, Mr Sanders explained his political reality – that a pro-gun control message is a killer in his gun-happy state.

'Excuse me,' Mr Sanders said, aiming his ire at Mr O'Malley.

'Do not tell me that I have not shown courage in standing up to the gun people, in voting to ban assault weapons, voting for instant background checks, voting to end the gun show loop hole and now we're in a position to create a consensus in America on gun safety,' Mr Sanders said.

Mrs Clinton said she agreed with Mr O'Malley on beefing up gun restrictions.

'I applaud his record in Maryland. I just wish he wouldn't misrepresent mine,' she said.

Much of the beginning of the debate was spent on discussing the 'daylight' between the three candidates' plan for how to defeat the ISIS threat.

Mr Sanders said he did not want the United States to serve as 'the policemen of the world' and wished to see an international coalition, which would include Russia, fighting against ISIS, saying he would not commit American ground troops.

'The troops on the ground should not be American troops, they should be Muslim troops, I believe that countries like Saudi Arabia and Qatar need to step up to the plate,' Mr Sanders said.

ABC's Martha Raddatz noted that the administration has tried that 'over and over again,' asking Mr Sanders what happens if it doesn't work.

'My plan is to make it work,' Mr Sanders said.

'To tell Saudi Arabia that instead of going to war in Yemen, they, one of the wealthiest countries on earth are going to have to go to war with ISIS,' Mr Sanders continued.

'To tell Qatar, that instead of spending $200billion (£134billion) on the World Cup, maybe they should pay attention to ISIS, which is at their doorstep,' Mr Sanders added, to big applause.

Mrs Clinton also talked of her opposition to sending ground troops to Iraq and Syria to fight ISIS.

'That is exactly what ISIS wants,' she said. 'They've advertised that, they want American troops back in the Middle East, they want American soldiers on the ground fighting them, giving them many more targets and giving them a great recruiting opportunity.'

Mrs Clinton agreed with Mr Sanders on the need to build an international coalition and used the opportunity to again smack Mr Trump.

'Bringing Donald Trump back into it,' Mrs Clinton said. 'You don't want to alienate the very countries and people you need to be part of the coalition.'

Mrs Clinton and Mr Sanders differed on their opinion of what to do with Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad.

Mrs Clinton said she wanted to simultaneously work on removing him from power, while fighting ISIS, while Mr Sanders suggested that the US simply prioritise the ISIS fight.

Martin O'Malley interrupted Mr Sanders and Mrs Clinton on the situation in Syria, saying: 'May I offer a different generation's perspective on this?'

Mr Sanders called out Mrs Clinton for being 'too much into regime change and a little bit too aggressive without knowing what the unintended consequences might be.'

'You've got to think about what happens the day after,' Mr Sanders added.

Mrs Clinton explained that Syrian rebels needed to be assured that Assad was on his way out in order to guarantee that they would support the US in the fight against ISIS.

'We will not get the support on the ground in Syria to dislodge ISIS if the fighters there who are not associated with ISIS, but whose principal goal is getting rid of Assad, don't believe there is a political, diplomatic channel that is ongoing,' Mrs Clinton said.

Mr O'Malley interrupted the two higher-polling candidates and his comment was met with boos.

'May I offer a different generation's perspective on this?' the 52-year-old governor said, trying to take the attention away from the 74-year-old Vermont senator and the 68-year-old former secretary of state.

After the grumbling subsided, Mr O'Malley said the US needed to get out of the Cold War mentality of always looking at 'who was wearing the jersey of the communists and who was wearing the US jersey.'

He suggested that that was why the US was interested in taking out yet another dictator, with al-Assad being politically aligned with the Russians.

'We have a role to play in this world,' Mr O'Malley said. 'But it is not the ... role of travelling the world looking for new monsters to destroy.'

Mrs Clinton, overall, was more positive about the ISIS fight, suggesting that a lot of necessary pieces were already coming together.

'We now finally are where we need to be,' Mrs Clinton said, a remark that was immediately criticised by Republicans.
