The new US President has imposed a controversial 90-day ban on travellers from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.
Donald Trump has said that the seven affected countries were identified by Barack Obama’s administration as “sources of terror”.
He said: “To be clear, this is not a Muslim ban, as the media is falsely reporting. This is not about religion — this is about terror and keeping our country safe.”
But in my view this will probably “give ISIS more propaganda” in some parts of the world & it will backfire as a recruiting sergeant for ISIS and other terrorists across the globe.
Recent terror attacks in the US - including the San Bernardino attack and the Orlando nightclub shooting - were not committed by citizens from the seven banned countries.
Amnesty International said refugees are fleeing war and human rights abuses in these countries, adding: “The ban is cruel, inhumane, and violates international law.”
Brutal fighting and civil war have ripped Syria apart over the past six years, forcing millions of refugees to flee the country.
More than 400,000 people had been killed during the conflict by April 2016, according to an estimate cited by a UN envoy.
So this ban is totally not acceptable in my view.
Please give your comment to support humanity.
