Following Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor, President Franklin Roosevelt suspended all naturalization proceedings for Japanese, German and Italian immigrants in the United States.
Donald Trump currently calls for a temporary — not permanent — suspension of Muslim immigration into the United States due to the current radical Muslim threat posed to this nation. And thus the name-calling, pejorative adjectives and labeling have begun as a part of today’s invective tidal wave against this man. The media have their collective panties in a twist over Trump’s position.
Trump’s policy of temporary immigration restriction is the only rational self-defense position — notwithstanding the “political correctness” crowd’s pontifications otherwise.
It’s not a matter of if, but when Islamic terrorists will attack Washington or New York City. America will then be brought to its knees. From this, perhaps the media and the leaderless Washington politicians will finally realize that America is in an unmitigated war with al-Qaida and the Islamic State group. These forces declared war on the United States long ago.
