US ex-marine Steven Gern was fired from his job in Iraq and sent home after he uploaded a Facebook video supporting US President Donald Trump's temporary ban on citizens of seven countries entering the US.
The ban was instituted to prevent potentially dangerous people from entering the country before there was an efficient way to vet them properly.
Gern's video, which includes a description of what local Iraqis would do to any American they found, got 44 million views on Facebook.
"So here I am, on my way out of here," Gern said in a YouTube video. "Obviously they didn't waste..time getting me out of the country... Currently I've been locked out of Facebook. I'll probably never be able to come back here to Iraq again, but I'm happy with that."
Later, on the plane, he said, "Apparently it wasn't safe for me to remain in the location I was in."

It’s becoming criminal to tell the truth about Islam and muslims.
Islam is evil, cannot be reformed and will always present a threat to our safety as long as it exists, as it has since it has existed.
I SAW THIS, AND TOTALLY AGREE THERE ARE PEOPLE WE SUPPORT THAT WOULD SNUFF US OUT SO WE SHOULD KEEP THEM OVER THERE AND NEVER BRING THEM HERE.
I WANT TO SEE A TOTAL 5 YEAR PAUSE ON IMMIGRATION PERIOD.
IF WE NEED ENGINEERS, PROGRAMMERS OR DITCH DIGGERS WE HAVE 95 MILLION OUT OF THE WORKFORCE AND SHOULD TRAIN AMERICANS AND HIRE AMERICANS.
He got fired for supporting the Commander in Chief? WTH?
As much as I liked the video, in truth it could have exposed troops other than himself to violence. It wasn’t a good thing for a guy on location to do.
I’m not quite clear on his position immediately before he was “fired”. Was he already an “ex-Marine” working as a civilian?
Sent home? For supporting the President?
Give him a promotion.
A quick look at him and you Know he was already out of the Corps.
Oh, dear, I hope everything will be okay for him. When I watched that video recently, I wondered if he would be into trouble because of it. Not politically correct, I suppose.
.
He was sent home for his own good.
They would have killed him.
.
YELL A LITTLE LOUDER, you YAHHOO!!!!
Truth to Power. Islam is a war plan.
.
Had nothing to do with political correctness.
He put himself and his co-workers in extreme danger.

be in

>> “ Islam is a war plan.” <<
Yes, it is.
Freemasonry and mormonism are that same plan.
He’s a former Marine. From what I understand he had to leave because his video had over 44 million views. He had a high chance of being recognized.
He made a conscious decision and if he didnt know what his stunt would mean to his job (probably working a 200k+ contract) he should have because it was obvious. Did his stunt have the intended effect? Was it worth losing the cash to spread his message? I think he is satisfied by the trade off.
It’s also possible he was getting sick of his contract or had something else lined up if he could get back stateside, and wanted a quick ticket home. Whatever his motivation, he certainly looks like someone who did more in quiet and honorable service to his country than any black-clad college ‘protester’ could ever hope.
bttt
I agree.
