TEHRAN — Families, businesspeople, athletes and tourists from seven countries in the Middle East and Africa found their travel plans — and even their futures — in a state of suspension on Friday after President Trump signed an executive order temporarily barring thousands from obtaining visas to travel to the United States.

The order is expected to freeze almost all travel to the United States by citizens from the Muslim-majority countries of Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen for at least 90 days. Three of those countries are considered sponsors of terrorism (Iran, Sudan and Syria), and three are designated countries of concern (Libya, Somalia and Yemen).

(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate. Whenever the Attorney General finds that a commercial airline has failed to comply with regulations of the Attorney General relating to requirements of airlines for the detection of fraudulent documents used by passengers traveling to the United States (including the training of personnel in such detection), the Attorney General may suspend the entry of some or all aliens transported to the United States by such airline.

Excitable, isn’t he? They should have let him beat himself to death.

Great pic/video. Hopefully these stone age freaks finally get their due. Obama really screwed us up in the Middle East. It is payback time.

“So if it’s only for 90 days, I presume the vetting process will be implemented in that time? Surely it will be implemented before the order is lifted.”

They will probably have to extend the deadline for 90 more days. hehehehe

For 35 years, Iranians have ended their week by shouting “Death to America” at Friday ‘prayers’.

Not letting them in is Captain Obvious material.

Yes, but will some ignorant anti-President Trump federal judge override this as a political statement? Can a federal government stay this? They already ignore our constitutional rights, what’s to stop them from saying that we cannot control our border as well?

Germany and the rest of the EU has rolled out the red carpet and their women are free for the taking.

Excellent!

As far as Iran goes, they can visit, but agents of the government will hold them in a small room, blindfolded, for 442 days before they can go home./s

There is no cause of action for these whining foreigners, period.

That’s right.

Just like EVERY OTHER COUNTRY in the world has the sole right control who comes into their country and when they have to leave.

It amazes me that people make out like it is only the USA that assumes this sovereign right.

[KC_Lion]

That is a great idea!

I wish I had thought of that.

[Cowgirl of Justice]

In Arabic, anyway.
