Trump Admin Has Two Unpublished Reports That Undercut Muslim-Ban: Report
According to a report by the Washington Post the Trump administration has at least two unpublished studies that contain data that undermine Donald Trump’s argument for the Muslim-Ban.
The studies suggest that Donald Trump’s Muslim ban would likely not help reduce terrorism in the U.S. or keep the country safe.
“One internal report, titled ‘Most Foreign-Born US-Based Violent Extremists Radicalized After Entering Homeland,’ analyzed roughly 90 cases of suspected or confirmed foreign-born terrorists, finding that most of them likely embraced extremist ideology after they arrived in the United States, not before,” the Post reported.
The second report, used classified FBI data undermine Trumps case because “most of the suspects cited in the report came from countries unaffected by President Trump’s executive order.”
Donald Trump’s new Muslim-ban was blocked by a federal judge in Hawaii on Wednesday. And a Maryland just came to a similar conclusion Thursday morning.
“In nearly half of the radicalization cases studied for the government’s internal report, officials found that the individuals came to the United States when they were younger than 16 and in many instances the terrorism charges filed against them came more than 10 years after their arrival, according to officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive material,” the Washington Post reported.
