Actually, if that couple had won their case, every Muslim in Europe could have automatically gotten into the United States on the ground that they wanted to home school their children.

It would be a poor precedence to set.

“I fled my nation due to religious persecution, and not with want to stay and homeschool my children.”

That the Muslim in the White Mosque intends to make the US an Islamic nation, period!!!

He insists on letting 10,000 unvetted Muslims in but will kick out a Christian family that has been here for seven years.

It doesn't work that way. If "not being allowed to homeschool" is defined as "religious persecution," then everyone in the world who is not permitted to homeschool gets to claim political asylum in the U.S.
