“America is a proud nation of immigrants and we will continue to show compassion to those fleeing oppression, but we will do so while protecting our own citizens and border. America has always been the land of the free and home of the brave.
We will keep it free and keep it safe, as the media knows, but refuses to say. My policy is similar to what President Obama did in 2011 when he banned visas for refugees from Iraq for six months. The seven countries named in the Executive Order are the same countries previously identified by the Obama administration as sources of terror. To be clear, this is not a Muslim ban, as the media is falsely reporting.
This is not about religion – this is about terror and keeping our country safe. There are over 40 different countries worldwide that are majority Muslim that are not affected by this order. We will again be issuing visas to all countries once we are sure we have reviewed and implemented the most secure policies over the next 90 days.
I have tremendous feeling for the people involved in this horrific humanitarian crisis in Syria. My first priority will always be to protect and serve our country, but as President I will find ways to help all those who are suffering.”

Excellent statement!
Masterfully delivered!
Just curious, was there a similar outcry when it was Jews fleeing the Nazi ovens and concentration camps?
Amen. Read it… it’s all true.
Just a coincidence that they’re all muslim nations. The order cited 9/11, but amazingly, no country where the terrorists came from is included in this ban. There is not a single case of terrorism conducted by a Syrian refugee in this country. This will most likely be overturned by the supreme court. Most concerning is the complete incompetence of this administration, an order went into effect without previously informing state governments and other governmental authorities to prepare them and instruct them how to carry out the intent of the order. The highest echelons of our country is now in the hands of amateurs.
No. 1 & 2:
When the Jews were fleeing from the Nazis:
A. They did not try to change the beliefs of the host countries.
B. They did not commit terror in the host countries.
C. They did not want to change the rest of the population to Judaism.
There is no moral equivalence here. The liberal left is always trying to argue moral equivalence even for murderers and evil. Are you both one of them???
rt – lucky you are not involved in the running or defense of the country .
Bin Laden never conducted terrorism in the US – maybe he should have been admitted entry ?
There are those who commit the acts – usually just small time pawns , and then there are those behind it – organizing everything . It is no secret , that the main route of terrorists into the West today , is exactly that – Syrian refugees . They know it’s hard enough to work out who is who , and anyway , the liberals of the target country will always support them – easy !
