Clinton signed orders which ended the ban on Professor Tariq Ramadan of Oxford University, who was barred due to alleged terrorism ties which he denies, State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said on Wednesday.
He added that the ban had also been lifted for Adam Habib of Johannesburg University, another prominent Muslim scholar.
"As we look at it, we do not think that either one of them represents a threat to the United States," Crowley told a news briefing, adding that the U.S. government hoped to encourage more interaction with the Muslim world.
Great to see the STATE Department vetting terrorism suspects. I guess we'll take their word for it.
