Any immigration ban that doesn't include Saudi Arabia seems disengenuous

If the basis is a fear of Islamic terrorism, a justified concern, then excluding the largest producer and funder of terrorism on Earth by an order of magnitude simply because they have lots of oil makes the whole thing ring hollow.

Until the GOP gets out of bed with fricking Saudis, nobody will take this seriously.

Agreed. It is unfortunate that our entangling 'alliance' with them precludes any sort of meaningful action against them.

Can't ban places where you have hotel interests.

Tell that to Obama, he chose the "countries of concern" that trump used.

I've yet to see a satisfactory rebuttal to this in any of those other threads either.

Probably depends.

What changes has the Saudi IS made to fight the WOT since 9/11?

How many Saudis have joined AlQaeda, ISIS or terror efforts since 9/11?

Please tell us that you really aren't so incredibly fricking stupid that you think its only the GOP.

Please tell us that you have enough brain cells to rub together to grasp the consequences of every American being expelled from Saudi Arabia.

Z oil is the reason

We're too dependent, which is a problem environmentalism should come forward and give an account of their doctrine force on the American people

Is this an issue of principle or not?

If this is TRULY about protecting America from terrorism, it shouldn't matter.

Saudis make up a large portion of the foreign fighters in ISIS.

Ideologically, it is also the home to the Salafis.

A significant number of ISIS members are native Saudis
