How would you explain the executive order not covering Saudi Arabia when 15 of the 19 hijackers in 2001 were Saudis, out of interest?

Excellent point. Its a bit of bandwagon tub thumping from the usual yoghurt weavers. IMHO he is an ass, but he has shaken up a tree that needed a good f***ing shake up, and with his hilarious narrative must come an organised, erudite and sensible counter narrative. Maybe then we will see real positive action/change.
Bring it on.

I'm not aware than banning stuff ever achieved anything - as odious as the bloke is. He has, of course, just confirmed in writing that the West is anti-muslim.

Bannon is probably the most worrying of Trump's appointments imo.

Don't wait for me!
Oldham - >2,500 (1.27% of constituents)
Rotherham (Labour - interesting choice) 0.85%
But to be fair they only got the internet last year.

Probably because it was 16 years ago and no doubt Saudi Arabia is on a shorter leash now that the US is producing more oil and maybe as I stated in my original post, security procedures are at an acceptable level there.

I love these online petitions. People think it's going to make a difference, that by signing it should be acted upon because blah blah I'll sqweam and sqweam, boo goo. Let's leave Mrs May to run the country shall we? I think she might know Trump is a prick already...unfortunately you have to speak to these people. But do carry on with this tokenism.

Hilary probably promised not to challenge his victory and turn up to his inauguration in return for him leaving the Saudis out and free to donate to the Clinton Foundation.

Facepalm all you like, that is clearly how it will be viewed in some quarters.
Looks as if he's creating a carrot to use alongside the stick. If he had banned travel from all Islamic countries he has isolated himself, having a tiered view (i.e. good vs bad Islamic countries) gives the impression that the less behaved (in his eyes) have the possibility of redemption. Presumably redemption will involve choice trade deals etc.
I also get the sizeable feeling that some of the nations not on the list have commercial angles he wishes to maintain.

But why? That's the interesting bit. Do explain, I'll respect your views. Intrigued that's all.

You don't think that maybe your buddy Obama dropping a bomb on a Muslim country on average every 20 minutes, 24 hours a day of his 8 year reign of terror might have be seen more of an anti muslim agenda than a travel ban on a handful of countries?
