Trump banning 7 major Muslim countries citizens entry into the US

[JTZ]

They are getting hammered on this. Trump and press secretary called it a ban now they say it isn't a ban. Talk about a three ring circus. This is sad.

Great analysis, I recommend taking the 10 minute to read it. Her last point is on the money.

Assad says everyone he's fighting in the Syrian Civil War are terrorists. He's a brutal dictator and I don't know why anyone takes anything he says seriously. There are bad hombres all around, including Assad himself: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_armed_groups_in_the_Syrian_Civil_War

But asked if some of those who fled are “aligned with terrorists,” Assad quickly replied, “Definitely.”

"Aligned" is quite a weasel word. I suppose he considers any person who lives in an area controlled by opposition groups is "aligned" with terrorists. And to be sure, ISIS controls a significant amount of territory, and there's no question about them. But we should be very skeptical of agreeing with Assad's definition of who's a terrorist and who isn't.

As for the future of Syria’s 4.8 million refugees, Assad said, “For me, the priority is to bring those citizens to their country, not to help them immigrate.”

Read: torture and murder the opposition.

Syria is a hellhole and I don't begrudge anyone trying to get out of there ASAP.

Assad is not a good guy but he is not wrong.

1. "Aligned" was not the word he used. Reading comprehension fail.
2. He never claimed that there a substantial amount of terrorists, in fact he implied the opposite. Another fail. What was your point agin?

Remember this not a Muslim ban. The same if the ban was for Beachwood and Kiryas Joel  that would not be a Jewish ban.

Call it whatever you want, if Jews acted like Muslims then it would justified as well.

Why do you think I chose those two?

Do you use that same logic for all races and religions?

Wow I didn't know that. Did they tailor the municipality to the Jewish community?

City was incorporated in 1915. Jews weren't allowed in Beachwood back then.
After WW2 Jews started moving in and wanted to build a Reform temple. The locals didn't want it and eventually the OH supreme court rules that they be allowed to build the temple.
Frum Jews started moving to Beachwood in the 60s. The Reform Jews didn't like that and it lead to this nasty fight:

Eventually the courts ruled in the shul's favor and there are now 5 massive shuls built right next to one another. It's impressive, but shortsighted though as makes all the houses within a mile of them cost 2-3x as much as housing outside of the mile costs.

No other religion promots terror as Islam does! But if any other then yes why would any one won't a terrorist in their back yard.
