FULL TITLE: Protests at JFK after 12 travelers are held overnight in confusion at Trump immigration ban - including Iraqi who worked as a U.S. army translator for ten years

One of the Iraqi refugees who was detained for 14 hours when he flew to the United States after Trump signed an executive order has now been released from New York's JFK airport.

Hameed Khalid Darweesh walked free from detention on Saturday afternoon after arriving in America on a flight from Istanbul the night before.

The 53-year-old had worked for the U.S. government in Iraq for 10 years as a translator, engineer and contractor and had a valid special immigration visa to relocate to America.

Darweesh pumped his fist in the air outside the airport following his release, as a crowd of supporters cheered him on.

Doesn’t matter. Ban them all. I could care less if he had posters of Ivanka up on his cave wall. Ban them all.

Everything seems to be operating the way Trump has planned.

The guilty are stopped, the innocent are allowed.

THAT was the message all along.

Held in confusion?

Naw...they knew the score. Islam is a parasite on humanity.

Better safe than sorry, vetting takes time.

As I recall, Anwar al-Awlaki also spend a lot of time training U.S. personnel. Obama droned him.

Yep, true to form, The Seditious #FakeStreamMedia drags out their single "anecdote" to smear President Trump.

"including Iraqi who worked as a U.S. army translator for ten years"

"That covers legal permanent residents - green card holders - and visa-holders from those seven countries who were out of the United States after Friday, when President Donald Trump signed an executive order with the temporary ban. They cannot return to the U.S. for 90 days."

What's the 90 days for? Vetting? And I'm not too sure how the green card system works - This gives foreigners the legal right to reside in the US? So isn't he bypassing law here? Don't get me wrong, I think it's freakin great being that prevents green card holders from going to a terror producing country to be radicalized and returning to the USA like the Boston marathon bomber did, but isn't this Trump bypassing a law? This is legal through exec. action? I guess so considering what B. Hussein got away with.

This guy is turning out to be the greatest POTUS in US history. In ONE week look what he has accomplished, no messing around.

This was only the kindergarten launch of the EXTREME VETTING process. It appears to be working just fine.

We must remind Mr. Darweesh that he is not a citizen of this country, and his protest of U.S. foreign policy is of no consequence to us. He is authorized entry into the U.S only at our discretion and his, and every other documented legal immigrant in the country, Visa may be revoked at any time.

We have noted his protest in his file, and have informed him that we will be keeping an extra sharp eye on him to make sure he stays out of trouble.

Have you noticed that all muslim actions have ceased in the United States in the last month or so? They’ve gone quiet as mice.

I was once delayed by American Airlines for 19 hours at JFK. I didn’t consider it a hate crime, or call Jerold Nadler. Big damn deal...he’s out now, and saying he loves America and likes Trump. End of story.
