Anchor asks Trump supporter the question in response to his recent controversial comments about banning Muslims.
In reported cases of Jewish terror attacks, should all Jews be barred from obtaining visas in order to enter the United States?
This was a question posed by CNN's Ashleigh Banfield Tuesday morning during an interview with former Ronald Reagan White House administration official and current Donald Trump supporter, Jeffrey Lord, when asked if his preferred presidential candidate was not applying a double standard to Muslims.
"If you supplant the word 'Jews' for 'Muslims' in a lot of the rhetoric that we've had this morning, I think people would find it sort of cringe-worthy and reminiscent of a really ugly time in our history," Banfield said. "There have been Jewish terrorist attacks. Should we therefore ask no Jews to please apply for a visa?"
The CNN anchor then provided specifics examples: "From a period of 1980 to 1985 there were a reported 18 terror attacks committed in the United States by Jews, 15 of them committed by the Jewish Defense League," Banfield said. 'The head of the Jewish Defense league was in jail awaiting trial...accused of trying to bomb a mosque in Culver City, trying to bomb [US Congressman] Darrel Issa's office, an Arab-American."
"Are you really saying to me that there's an international Jewish conspiracy to take over the world?" Lord asked in response.
"There are no Jews coming to [the US] to destroy America," Lord added

I know I tune out now and again to regain sanity, but did I miss something?
Are the Jews chanting, “Death to America”? Are the Jews bound, bent, and determined to kill as many Americans as they can? Do they seek the end of The Great Satan?
Honestly, the run-of-the-mill reporters/journalists are not too bright.
back up that statement ...
libtards thow out a lot of crap they cant back up
Neither Christianity nor Judiasm nor Hinduism nor Buddhasim teach, promote or encourage the killing of unbelievers. Islam is the glaring exception.
It is sickening when the left tries to use moral relatism to gray everything. Have people used the religions mentioned above to kill in their name? Yes, but it is isolated and there is NO pattern or trend of it happening on a recurring and numerous basis. Unlike islam.
I wish we could round up liberal reporters and deport them, blocking them from coming back... ever. Stupid MSM reporters want to get us all killed by muslim fanatics.
What don’t these people get about the Koran? Yes, various individuals and groups do all kinds of things in the name of religion, but only Islam’s sacred writings demand the extermination of all non-Muslims. Islam is the only religion that cannot coexist peacefully with others. It’s doctrine says that all must be ruled by Islam.
When they find a synagogue, church, or Buddhist temple that is demanding that all submit or die, they can let us know.
"There are no Jews coming to [the US] to destroy America," Lord added
Libtards are stuck on stupid and just don't get it when it comes to moral equivalency. Sen Durbin declared American soldiers were the same as Nazis during the Iraq war.
On a side note, while in college (1980) Irv Rubin of the JDL was doing a lunchtime lecture, open to all. I attended. He stated that 'we' (America) was responsible for the holocaust because we did nothing to stop it.
I blurted out: "Nothing? What do you call WWII?"
His comment: "Too little to late"
I stated he was full of crap and walked out. He was yelling at me as I left, but I wanted nothing to do with him.
Hmmmm....maybe TALIBANfield doesn’t like Jews.
This is not hard folks. The issue is not if a Muslim, Christian or Jew carried out terrorist attack but that Islam commands it while Christianity and Judaism condemn it.
I don’t even remember a Jewish terrorist attack in the USA going back way longer than 30 years, none that I know of since WWII.
67% of religious base hate violence are against Jews in America, yet Muslims who perpetrated 9/11 and many other attacks, hijackings, shooting down of planes, etc. They are victims of hate crimes 11% last year
This woman should be out of a job. Don’t the media ever get tired of blaming Christians and Jews the religions of peace.
Not the first idiotic thing she has ever said and/or done...

CNN’s Ashleigh Banfield Mistakenly Condemns Eagles’ Guitarist Joe Walsh
CNN’s Ashleigh “if I had a brain I would take it out and play with it” Banfield ... another of the “Smart Girl” glasses wearing Presstitutes.
1st, Moslems are a collective who seek to dominate and cause political and societal change.
2nd, name a Jewish terrist and their collusion, as well, co-conspirators...
“CNN anchor: Jews carried out terror attacks, should they be barred from entering US?”
Most libs make fallacious arguments such as that one.
Here’s a comprehensive list of logical fallacies.

Let’s see if we can find how many fallacies this idiot made in that single statement.
I’ll start with... “FALSE ANALOGY”.
I think it’s a good exercise to sharpen our debating skills against the morons on the left.
One wonders what color the sky is in her world.
In early 2000, Banfield was hired by MSNBC. According to The New York Times, she “fit nicely with MSNBC’s positioning as the news network of choice for younger viewers” and network executives “also liked her frosted blond hair and trademark Clark Kent-style glasses.”
In April 2003, in a Landon Lecture Series speech at Kansas State University, Banfield raised concerns regarding media coverage of the conflict in Iraq. She spoke against “cable news operators who wrap themselves in the American flag and go after a certain target demographic” and specifically named Fox News Channel as an example. The New York Times reported that her speech angered NBC management, who rebuked her and lowered her profile. “They just fell in love with a new toy and they played with it and played with it and played with it until the paint came off,” said an NBC News correspondent of the network’s relationship with Banfield.
CNN’s Ashleigh Banfield.. a minor modern day version of Tokyo Rose.
My answer, can you point to a Jewish terrorist killing Christians and innocent Americans?, if yes, give me there names and we will revoke there visa! Arrest them and prosecute them to the full extent of the law!
As of right now all terrorist have been Muslims, if that changes we will take steps to mitigate that threat!
