“They had indeed changed their mind. On Friday, President Trump signed an executive order banning citizens of seven predominantly Muslim countries—Iraq, Iran, Syria, Somalia, Sudan, Libya, and Yemen—from entering America under any visa, for at least 120 days. Asgari, who is Iranian, was sent back to Switzerland. “

First off, it isn’t Trump’s ban, it’s Obama’s. Trump is just reinforcing it with an executive order Obama himself signed.

Unfettered Islamic immigration has been hurting the civilized world for a long time. A little discomfort now, to get it right, is worth it. Boo fricking boo, media.

Let’s see, do we miss out on the odd scientist or a few hundred terrorists? I’ll pass on the scientist to keep the terrorists out.

Oh, another article from The Atlantic.

The Atlantic is filled with garbage, crabs and sewage. It’s also the name of an ocean.

“A few days ago, she was set to give two talks at American universities, as she was mulling a job offer from the University of Michigan, and she had learned that MIT had shortlisted her for a postdoc position. All of those options have since evaporated. “There is excellent research being done in the U.S. but I won’t have the opportunity to even think about there now,” she says. “I have to go to Europe.”

I guess she can’t be all that great if these places can’t wait 90 days for her visa to be reviewed.

Trump’s executive order may stop the next Merrikhs, Mirzakhanis, Sabetis, and Naderis from realizing their ambitions—in America, at least. [...] “There is excellent research being done in the U.S. but I won’t have the opportunity to even think about there now,” she says. “I have to go to Europe.”

No, all they have to do is wait 100 days until there are more screening procedures. If they pass they can still get in. But then, everyone already knows this.

I think its fair to consider exceptions on a case by case basis. But only the weak minded are swayed by these sob stories.
