Trump's Refugee Plan Will Prioritize Christians Suffering Religious Persecution
NPR ^ | Jan.26, 2017 | Richard Gonzales

Posted on 01/26/2017 9:09:06 PM PST by Innovative

President Trump has signed a flurry of executive orders during his first week in office and apparently he isn't done yet. He is expected to sign a series of executive actions related to national security as early as Friday.

One is related to combating ISIS and others will impact U.S. refugee policy, according to a White House official.

NPR national political correspondent Mara Liasson reports that the actions include a 120-day moratorium on any new refugees entering the United States to give the government time to come up with a plan that prioritizes Christians suffering from religious persecution.

Another action would indefinitely block new Syrian refugees from entering the United States. There will be a 30-day ban on immigration from seven countries with predominantly Muslim populations: Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Yemen and Sudan.

POTUS Trump is a good man.

He should follow it up by starting the grand project of making America energy independent. Too many Oil and Gas scientists and engineers in Texas are still unemployed and have been for a long time.

Christians know two things ... preaching and Bible.

I think I could develop a way of filtering out the phonies

See if any of them wince.

The problem is is people lie. A Christian is NOT going to admit to being a Christian surrounded by murderous violent jihadis. There is a reason 99.99% of all European refugees are Muslim. Anyone who admits to being a Christian is thrown off the rubber raft in the Med.

Check the men for circumcision. Offer them a pork sandwich. (There may be some Christian sects that still practice circumcision and follow dietary laws, though).

It's quite easy to determine who's a muslim. Put a koran on the ground. Tell them to spit on it, walk on it, and rip pages out for TP. If they refuse to do it they're muslims.

You can't tell by words, as muslims are permitted and even encouraged to lie to non-muslims. They are fantastic at deceptively acting sincere.

>> a plan that prioritizes Christians suffering from religious persecution.

And what, Mara, are the subordinate concerns? Do you have a clue?

Too easy. The “Holy Koran” allows lies and deceit
