The United States should forbid the construction of any new Islamic mosques until 'moderate' Muslims "stand up and denounce the Nairobi mall massacre, Fox News host Bob Beckel has said.

He said that no Muslim students should come to the US and no more mosques should be built in the country until moderate Muslims stand up and denounce what's happened in the name of your prophet.

Beckel said that the time has come for Muslims in the U.S. and other people in the world to stand up and be counted, and if you can't, you're cowards, the Washington Times reports.

According to the report, Beckel issued similar statements in July when Boko Haram Islamist militants mowed down 42 students in northern Nigeria.
