Holy fuck Sup Forums, I tried to verify this claim made by Donald J. Trump and guess what? HIS STATEMENT IS COMPLETELY FALSE: Obama never banned Iraqi visas!
also you can read the executive order and compare it to Obama's
OP is CTR.

>muh CTR
Instead of proving me wrong you prefer to call me a shill huh? Why is the far-right so stupid?
Go search for yourself you fucking moron. Obama never banned Iraqis, he just made the visa application process more secure, generating some delay.

so exactly what trump is doing now then? are you really retarded or just a shill?

>As a result of the Kentucky case, the State Department stopped processing Iraq refugees for six months in 2011, federal officials told ABC News – even for many who had heroically helped U.S. forces as interpreters and intelligence assets. One Iraqi who had aided American troops was assassinated before his refugee application could be processed, because of the immigration delays, two U.S. officials said. In 2011, fewer than 10,000 Iraqis were resettled as refugees in the U.S., half the number from the year before, State Department statistics show.
>Obama never banned Iraqis, he just made the visa application process more secure, generating some delay.
Trump's EO is only for a period of 90-days. So if you want to call Obama's ban merely a 'processing delay,' then you have to do the same with Trump. Regardless, he didn't lie.

I love how they always use sob stories to force terrible policy. Someone helped the US once so we better let everyone in without any vetting :^)

This post is absolute LIES. Typical Liberal LIES. It is an objective fucking fact that Obama banned Iraqi refugees, and it is also an objective fucking fact that Obama is the one who came up with the list of 7 countries. Get fucked. I hope your wife's son lynches you.

Are you literally retarded? Trump said: > [Obama] banned visas for refugees from Iraq for six months Obama _never_ banned visas.

It's to take advantage of how maldeveloped people are. They think they are making some kind of heroic, dramatic decision like their life is a sitcom and any moment now some emotional piano theme will start playing. It's really, really, sick stuff.

>BANNED VISAS FOR REFUGEES
Adam Kelly
Why is so hard to understand that a delay processing visa applications (this is, aliens who don't hold any permit to enter into the US asking the govt for such permit) it's not the same than banning people who already have a goddammit visa!
You're right it wasn't an executive order it was part of the "omnibus" spending bill signed into law 2015. Suck it. Read some spending bills. Addendums were added in 2016 which expanded the list of countries to include Somalia and Libya.
>My policy is similar to what President Obama did in 2011 when he banned visas for refugees from Iraq for six months.
Read.

Wow great work mate. 0.2 shekels have been deposited into your account. CTR / CREW is great!
Owen Baker
Everything he said is correct you retard.
Trump banned visas just like Obama did, in that sense his order is similar. Trump took it one step further by halting nationals from those 7 countries period.
Nothing he said is incorrect.
