Donald Trump is expanding his Muslim ban, not rolling it back
WAPO ^ | July 24, 2016 | Jenna Johnson

Posted on 07/24/2016 2:08:02 PM PDT by PROCON

Donald Trump made clear this weekend that he has not rolled back his proposal to ban Muslims from entering the United States, despite top allies insisting that he had.

In accepting the Republican nomination on Thursday night, Trump said the country "must immediately suspend immigration from any nation that has been compromised by terrorism until such time it's proven that vetting mechanisms have been put in place." Trump made no mention of Muslims in the speech, leading many to conclude that Trump had formally changed his position — just as a number of his top allies, including his running mate, said he had.

During an interview this weekend with NBC's "Meet the Press," host Chuck Todd asked Trump whether his comment should be interpreted as a "slight rollback."

Japanese Court Rules Blanket Surveillance Of Muslims Is ‘Necessary’ To Stop Terrorism

The Daily Caller ^ | June 30, 2016 | Jacob Bojesson
Posted on 7/1/2016, 12:21:13 AM by 2ndDivisionVet

Muslims in Japan lost a lawsuit over the government’s surveillance of them in May, with the court saying it’s a “necessary” counter-terrorism tactic.

Japanese police have monitored places of worship, halal restaurants and Muslim organizations for years in what they label a counter-terrorism measure. A 2010 leak of 114 Japanese police files quickly spread across the world with 10,000 downloads in 20 countries. The files contained personal information of 72,000 Muslims in several countries, showing just how widespread the surveillance is.

A group of 17 Muslims living in Japan sued the government for infringing on their constitutional rights. The Muslims eventually received close to $900,000 in compensation, but the country’s Supreme Court still finds the profiling and surveillance tactics “necessary and inevitable” to prevent terrorism.

“We were told we don’t have a constitutional case,” said Junko Hayashi, a lawyer for the plaintiffs, according to Al Jazeera. “We’re still trying to figure out, how is it not constitutional?”
The court case didn’t make much noise in Japan — the debate instead focused on how the leak will hurt counter-terrorism efforts in the future.

About 70,000 Muslims live in Japan. The vast majority, 90 percent, are foreigners

Swiss Do the Unthinkable: Deny Muslims Citizenship

In a move which no doubt has American immigration officials baffled, the Swiss are denying citizenship to Muslim after Muslim for failing to integrate into their society!

Exactly. They say it like it’s a bad thing.

Forget countries.

No muslim from ANY country should be allowed in.

Good, because the news, almost on a daily basis anymore, shows why it’s needed.

Here’s how. Any Muslim that will not repudiate the concept of Sharia law in this country is committing sedition:

18 U.S.C. § 2384 : US Code - Section 2384: Seditious conspiracy

If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

Muslim is no more a legitimate religion than scientology. It’s a cult that makes the moonies and hari krishnas look respectable.

It really vexed me the other day to see 4 Syrian refugees looking at rifles in our local gun store.

If I had my camera, I would have taken a photo and sent it to the local authorities.

He ought to expand it to where he deports all Muslims who were not properly vetted by Obama.

I hope and suspect there are many 'undocumented features' that Donald Trump will rollout once elected. Obama has implemented many special interest politically correct destructive and asinine policies that can and will be reversed or discarded.

The lying press keep saying that it has nothing to do with muslim terrorism...if this is so, did Germany have these kinds of attacks before the arrival of many, many muslims? How about hundreds of women being attacked on New Years Eve, people being attacked with an ax while riding on a train, a gunman shooting at people at a shopping mall and a male attacking a female coworker with a knife at the restaurant that they both worked at. These are all very sensationalistic and out-of-the ordinary crimes that have happened within a year. Was this always part of the normal German news cycle or has something changed?

Yep, the Democrats always set the agenda and the Republicans always adopted it a few years later. What traitors.

I so like that it is going to be moving day this January. Lots of corruptocrats moving out and people who represent us moving in. Oh, the joy! Donald will have eight years to clean house. This will have a great impact, not only in Washington but throughout all of the states.

The war in Lebanon in the seventies began about five years after the PLO was allowed to move into Lebanon. The PLO secretly began storing up and hiding weapons and then when the time was right all hell broke loose. Car bombs and every kind of violence turned the “Paris of the Orient” into a full on war zone.

In addition to the problems that muslims cause there are many countries that have very crime ridden and dysfunctional societies. If they couldn’t run their own countries properly, why would we want them here?
