CNN has the article Why ISIS is celebrating Trump’s immigration ban.

In a recent Washington Post op-ed, retired US Army Gen. and former CIA Director David Petraeus said he has grown increasingly concerned about anti-Muslim rhetoric in the United States.

“As policy, these concepts are totally counterproductive,” Petraeus said. “Rather than making our country safer, they will compound the already grave terrorist danger to our citizens. As ideas, they are toxic and, indeed, non-biodegradable — a kind of poison that, once released into our body politic, is not easily expunged.”

In the spirit of being fair and unbalanced, CNN goes on to add the following to their article:

The number of American Muslims who radicalize is small, especially when compared with other Western countries, said William McCants, director of the Brookings Institution’s Project on US Relations with the Islamic World.

Law enforcement experts estimate that about 250 Americans have tried to join ISIS, far fewer than the thousands who have flocked to Syria and Iraq from countries such as France and Belgium.

“I would argue that American Islam is doing something right in contrast to these other countries,” McCants said.

I would argue that the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans provide somewhat of a barrier for American Muslims wanting to go to the Caliphate compared to those lining in Europe. Perhaps it is not only American Islam is doing something right but America (USA) that is doing something right, Well, that is until Trump arrived upon the scene. In the USA, we have far more acceptance of diverse people that some countries in Europe. We do not ban the wearing of religious garb as they do in France. We do not insist on English being the official language. There are a lot of things we do right that Trump wants to start doing wrong.
