The fact is, Trump’s “immigration ban list” may be based on illogical thinking, and even have nefarious motives behind it, but when looking at the facts it certainly is not a “Muslim ban”, which is what countless “fake news” sources have labeled it.
If it was a “Muslim ban”, Indonesia, with 87 % of its population being Muslim, would be on the list. It’s not.
If it was a “Muslim ban”, Pakistan with 96 % of its population being Muslim, would be on the list. It’s not.
If it was a “Muslim ban”, Egypt, with 90% of its population being Muslim, would be on the list. It’s not.
If it was a “Muslim ban”, Bangladesh, with 90% of its population being Muslim, would be on the list. It’s not.
Now, when and where did the list of countries banning immigrants come from? Well, the fact is, it came from “the Visa Waiver Program and Terrorist Travel Protection Act of 2015“, which was adopted long before Trump was elected as our President. The list includes: Syria, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Libya, Somalia, and Sudan.
So, why are so many of our media personalities constantly beating the drum and calling it a “Muslim ban”?
