While there are all of these protests going on in the USA about President Trump's Muslim Ban, the fact is that these protests do not reflect reality at all. In fact, major Muslim nations and business leaders are not calling for an end to the protests, but for MORE bans.
One of the most famous people alive in Pakistan today, Imran Khan- a philanthropist, politician, and celebrity sports figure, is publicly imploring- praying- that Donald Trump will ban Pakistani Muslims from leaving for the West:
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan hoped that the United States will also slap visa ban on Pakistanis so that the people here could focus on their own country.
“I pray that [US President Donald] Trump stops giving us [Pakistanis] visas because then we will try fixing our own country,” Imran said while addressing a party gathering in Sahiwal on Sunday.
“The prime minister would go abroad even if he gets a headache. If it [the ban] happens, we will have to improve Pakistan and stand on our own feet.” (source)
His reasoning reflects what President Asad of Syria and many wise people in the West have noted- instead of running away and seeking to live off of welfare benefits at somebody else's expense, Muslims need to stay at home and rebuild their own nations.
Likewise the United Arab Emirates, one of the wealthiest and most powerful Muslim nations in the world, had something positive to say. In a Tweet from Dhalfi Khalfan, the UAE Security Chief, supported via Twitter President Trump's ban, saying that the United States has the right to decide who stays and who leaves their nation:
Translation: We completely support Trump in his ban on entry to those who may cause a breach in America’s security.
In other words, even the Muslims are saying that the USA has the right to make their own laws in accordance with their way of life.
These things that both are saying is nothing new at all. In fact, it is just a dose of good-old-fashioned common sense and courtesy that should be expected of anybody. What makes it so surprising is that for so many years, American politician and businessmen have been little more than glorified pimps who have earned their wealth by prostituting American labor, fiscal capital, and intellectual capital that does not belong to them to anybody willing to buy. Through decades of theft, deceit, and in many cases outright robbery the American public has been bled dry and the nation is on the edge of complete disorder which has affected not just America, but the entire world.
Chaos is profitable for some, but it is always bad for the majority and causes more problems than it solves. What America needs is a return to law and order, which is often times just a return to common courtesy. This is something that anybody- even the Muslims- who care about their nations understand.
