Pakistan Could Be Added To Trump’s Muslim Ban List

[TOPGUN]

I do not think that will happen but I could be wrong...... lets see what happens whatever happens will happen for the best for both nations.

Pakistan could be in trouble, as U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to sign two executive orders barring immigrants from seven Muslim countries from entering the United States. On Wednesday, Trump reportedly signed a controversial order temporarily barring Muslims from seven countries – Syria, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Sudan and Somalia.

While the seven countries on Trump’s so-called Muslim ban list include some of those with large Islamic populations and where there is a high terrorist threat, some might say that Pakistan fits the criteria perfectly. And while the nation with 195 million population, approximately 97% of whom are Muslims, hasn’t been included on the Muslim ban list yet, there is a high chance Trump could add Pakistan, along with Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan, to the list.

High chance Pakistan could be included on the Muslim ban list
There are several reasons Pakistan could be included on Trump’s Muslim ban list. First of all, Pakistan’s proximity to war-torn Afghanistan, Iraq and Iran (the latter two are already on the list) increases its chances of getting on the infamous list.

Second of all, the U.S. believes Pakistan has for years sheltered terrorist elements, while India’s claims about its traditional enemy allegedly harboring terrorist groups don’t exactly cleanse Pakistan’s reputation on its involvement in terrorism. Third of all, the mention of Pakistan has regularly popped up during terrorist attacks on the U.S. in recent years.

History of Pakistan’s involvement in terrorism in the U.S.
On December 2, 2015, 14 people were killed in the San Bernardino shooting, which was carried out by a Pakistan-born lawful permanent resident of the U.S.

The even-more headline-making Orlando nightclub shooting in June 2016 killed 49 people and wounded 53 others. The terrorist attack/hate crime was carried out by an American-born U.S. citizen of Afghan descent. In December, Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani accused Pakistan of exporting terror to his country.

In May 2010, a Pakistan-born resident of the U.S. attempted to carry out a terrorist attack in Times Square in Manhattan, New York. A year later, when United States Navy SEALs killed al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden in Pakistan, then-President Barack Obama accused Pakistan of sheltering terrorists.

Obama’s accusations on Pakistan’s links to terrorism were the turning point in relations between the U.S. and Pakistan, which were once close allies. In recent years, Islamabad has been accused of not doing enough to eliminate terror groups operating from its territory.

As the new U.S. President Donald Trump has repeatedly said, he wants to keep Muslim immigrants who might harm Americans from entering the U.S., there’s a high chance Pakistan could still be included on his infamous Muslim ban list, given the country’s involvement in terrorist attacks in the U.S. in recent years.

What should Pakistan expect from Trump’s Muslim ban?
At this point, it’s unclear how the new U.S. administration perceives Pakistan, given that the Obama administration believed that Islamabad is sponsoring terrorism in the war-ridden region. However, it’s probably safe to say that if Trump doesn’t officially ban Pakistanis from entering the U.S., the nation’s citizens should probably expect in-person interviews with American immigration officers and additional security checks at U.S. airports involving special security screenings.

And even if Pakistanis manage to get into the U.S. through the nerve-wracking interviews and thorough security checks at airports, they would still be viewed differently by Americans, making them feel like “second-class” people and completely out of place, not to mention the suspicious gazes from Americans.

Trump to reintroduce torture and secret overseas “black sites”
While Trump’s temporary ban against the Islamic countries is expected to last several months until the U.S. adopts a permanently stricter border policy, Trump is also considering enhancing enforcement power for border agents and reintroducing torture techniques at the border. In addition to keeping refugees and some visa holders from the Muslim countries from entering the U.S., Trump reportedly wants to reintroduce secret overseas “black site” prisons that allow agents to interrogate terrorism suspects.

The new executive orders, which also include building the infamous wall on the border with Mexico, are expected to drastically change how America deals with immigration, border security and the fight against terrorism. It would also drastically reshape U.S. relations with the Muslim countries on the list, as the move has already fueled anger around the world.

During his presidential campaign, Trump was hell-bent on cracking down on immigrants entering the U.S. illegally. He insisted that America had become too “politically correct” to actually defend Americans from terrorism threats.

Trump: “You’re going to see” if we’ll ban Pakistan
In an interview with ABC News on Thursday, Trump addressed his controversial Muslim ban and revealed the chances of Pakistan being included in the list. In his first-ever media interview after his inauguration, he reiterated his campaign pledges to ban immigrants from Islamic countries. The President said it’s not his intention to ban all Muslim, only those coming from countries with high terrorist threats.

“No it is not the Muslim ban. But it is countries that have tremendous terror,” Trump told David Muir of ABC News.

Trump added that he’ll ban the countries from which “people are going to come in and cause us tremendous problems.” He insisted that the U.S. is already having “enough problems” and reiterated that there are people who want to enter the country to do “tremendous destruction.”

When the ABC News host asked Trump if people from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia will be included on the Muslim ban list, he gave a very ambiguous answer.

“You’re going to see — you’re going to see,” Trump said, adding that America would do “extreme vetting” in all cases from now on.

He also said that his country won’t allow anyone in if there is “even a little chance” they could harm America.

Most of them have changed nationalities and would never comeback unless and until they get thrown out. A US medical doctor may make around quarter million to million $. there is no way they can leave that luxury.
There is no way they'll ban permanently any country, this is temporary. But expect lot of visa refusals for few months from now.
I'm not sure about the rumors but France started to refuse many visas since last attack.

 

[Unite & Defend]

It won't happen. But if it did, I can predict thousands of skilled Pakistani professionals coming back home

i hope it will not affect trade between both countries ..

Why are some Muslims getting triggered over this ban?

The US is not a panacea. Don't see what can be lost from this ban.

 

[Pakistani E]

Why are all Muslims getting triggered over this ban?

The US is not a panacea. Don't see what can be lost from this ban.

No one is getting triggered, most Pakistanis here are happy if you actually read what they are saying. So am I. Americans like to parade themselves around as some morally superior beings of great integrity who have unflinching dedication to human rights and liberty and lecture other states, electing Trump was just the beginning of the exposure of their true faces. I am happy about it. No more hiding behind the shroud of decency.

Brother these Indians think that America needs them for China that they have got an edge over us. These stupid people think that they can make Pakistan isolated. These noobs and their President Miss Modi don't know a bit about trump. They got thrown away by Russia for moving towards france and now they are in a search of a constant master but no one is throwing a bone at them. Trump is going to make America a protected economy and it will hurt the Indian's most. I am just giving them the reality. He will not stop Pakistanis, We are not an American job based economy, it is India Israel and Mexico that are going to get hurt if trump imposes a border tax or outflow tax. Pakistan is all Europe based not US based, They don't read the data reports and come to the forums to convey ill managed dilemma that just got birth in their uneducated brains.

What does India have to do with this anyways?
Trumps policy..please deal with him and the Americans...
Indians are just spectators here, so please stop with the verbal jihad on india!

Sorry I should have worded it better. I didn't mean just Pakistanis.

Just what I've been hearing from Muslim twitter users and that Iranian actor boycotting the Oscars. It just seems like people are getting real touchy over it even though it doesn't really change anything.

do you even check the authenticity of this report......
nowadays so much fake propaganda is posted on PDF then any website against Pakistan....
Pakistan was not on the list and nor they are thinking of including Pakistan....
This report must be from some Hindu or Indian paid agent ....
Right now Hindus are like a little kid going to their mummy and daddy if things don't go according to demands.......they are like " we would go to our daddy u.s.a and tell tales against Pakistan ....dady u.s.a will make them pay...."
but in real nothing happened except fake promises .....
once again there is no discussion about being included in banned list ...have some confidence in yourself ....dont pay attention to propaganda ....

DaFaq is everyone on about?!
What do Indians and Hindus have to do with this?! You Pakistanis need to stop looking for the Hindu boogeyman!
This has more to do with the karma of the umma than anything india or Hindus have done!
