It's clear that there's only one way to save this country from Trump:
Announcement
Collapse
No announcement yet.
How long will the Trump administration last?

(To be more exactly, I should mention that the countries rulers of SA belong to the Salafist subgroup ... which is actually the same radical subgroup of Islam, whose members in western countries often are found to recruit for the IS (and which therefore are under surveillance in germany) ... which makes it interesting that you and Trump see no problem with not including SA (and other countries with a high salafist pecentage) in the muslim travel ban)

actually exported terrorism to the USA (the majority of the attackers of 9/11 came from SA)
that gives lots of money to groups all over the world (including in the USA) that spread a fundamentalist form of Islam that definitely is no all to compatible with western values (and actually supports making sharia the law of the land)
a country that also has lots of people who support terrorist groups with lots of money
Perhaps, if such a travel ban exists, it is rather the fear from refugees that will require resurces (food, medicine, shelter) to be spent on them and not so much a fear of terrorists(just like the current isolation of Quatar surely has more to do with dominance in the region and economy, than with terrorism)
If you want to use Saudi Arabia as a model for a travel ban, why not also import other things that Saudi Arabia has ... for example women being forbidden to drive a car ... or certain regions of the country being off limits if you don't have the correct faith, or womennot being allowed to do business without the permission of husband/father/brother ... or even by abandoning democracy and making Donald the ruler of the country with leadership being heritable within male members of the Trump family?
That said, however I am missing any reference to an actual travel ban regarding Saudi Arabia.
Googling only found me a travel ban for Jews and people from 3 countries with Ebola, but none that is similar to the travel ban which Donald wants to instate in the USA
So please enlighten us with a link to a believable (i.e. not Breitbart) source for the existence of a travel banLast edited by Proteus_MST; June 7, 2017, 14:09.Tamsin (Lost Girl): "I am the Harbinger of Death. I arrive on winds of blessed air. Air that you no longer deserve."

Which is actually a bit strange for me because during the ramp up for the election, I don't remember him being a die-hard Trumpster except for a little of that he's not Hillary thinking. He didn't go over to the totally wackjob side until he must have figured he could push our buttons by doing so. But in the end just comes across as a foaming rabid dog.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple
