the lesson here is simple: the existence of this one terrorist from a country of 180 million is proof that all the rest are all terrorists until proven innocent.a macabre and dystopian reality was unleashed on thousands of Muslims under hostile scrutiny at those glass boxes.
I know this mixture of apprehension and hope because it recurs amid the departure from rationality that attends the act of border crossing.Rightwing American populist leaders rage against globalization and demand that manufacturing jobs must return.but you are still unlucky by birth—and you are now also subject to humiliation and detention by the whim and fiat of an American president even if you never broke the law.
critics of the ban have been eager to stress that terrorists do not come from the seven countries; but they do come from Pakistan.it would seem to be a matter of simple fairness to extend the same empathy to millions of others whose skills also do not match the economies of the countries where they were born.
And alongside these accounts came many an earnest plea for more privileged Americans to show greater empathy toward this hypothetical everyman—a tragic collateral casualty of recent economic history.
the president has gone out of his way to mock and bully those expressing compassion for the victims of his unjust and racist order.and the White House oafishly reversed its prior reversal of DHSs announcement that green-card holders would be exempt.
Seeing so many accept the unacceptable during a time of relative peace should be reason for all of us to be concerned about what might be to come in more turbulent times.The order (and Trump himself) suggested possible exceptions for Christians from these countries even while Muslims overwhelmingly remain the principal victims of ISIS and associated terror groups.
no serious thinking person expected that a full-on ban on Muslim immigration could have possibly been accomplished with any immediacy.that this land might— become a safe and agreeable Asylum to the virtuous and persecuted part of mankind.
