Selective Xenophobia

Yesterday, a Republican senator introduced legislation to ban Palestinians from the United States, and to revoke any visas issued since October 1.

This xenophobic Republican senator argues that the policy would protect Americans from the threat of Palestinian terrorists. I may be wrong, but I don't recall any Palestinian terrorist attacks in the United States ever.

After the Twin Towers attack on September 11, 2001, it was reported that 15 hijackers were citizens of Saudi Arabia. When Trump imposed his Muslim ban, Saudi Arabia was NOT on the list of banned countries. Saudi Arabia ambushed and strangled Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi in their embassy. His body was dismembered and disposed of. The United States government never imposed any sanctions to Saudi Arabia for Khashoggi's murder or the September 11 attacks.

The Orange Turd sold weapons to the Saudis for billions of dollars. In fact, he vetoed Congress bills prohibiting arm sales to Saudi Arabia. Even the Biden administration continued the arm sales to Saudi Arabia.

It is a known fact, that Saudi Arabia have transferred American made weapons to al Qaeda terrorists. Methinks that instead of imposing xenophobic legislation, it is time to stop selling weapons to Saudi Arabia, a breeding ground for militant Islamic terrorist activities.
