Trumps Travel Ban Travails

President Trump has reissued his travel ban list (minus Iraq), which of course is still essentially the same list of countries who were under extra scrutiny under President Obama (now minus one). Although you would never know this from the pro-refugee, pro-immigration liberals, who weep every time a refugee is refused entry.

Many Americans Remember Iranians Treatment
Of Hostages - Even Though Liberals Don't.

Now I am happy to admit that President Trump is possibly a tower short of a shopping mall, but in this area I actually think he's being rather restrained, as there are many more Islamic paradises he could have included in the list. So with his minimalist list of Iran, Libya, Syria, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen (six of the seven countries on the original 27 January order), the US have subjected the citizens of those countries to a 90-day travel ban and extra background checks.

Bucket Lists

Recently I was asked if I had any bucket list requests .... I said no.

Typical Bucket List .....

My reasoning is that it always seems to me that many of these are really all about creating memories for the benefit of the families left behind (which I don't have), rather than for the person who is expected to pass on. Of course, there are also life bucket lists, and I guess if pressed I would say that I would have liked to have moved to the US for a while, or been into outer space, and circled the moon like those two space tourists plan.

Heavy Load

Apparently King Salman of Saudi Arabia is not one to travel lightly.

Many Boot Licking Lackeys Required ...

He also doesn't seem to believe that the cost cutting measures in his country should apply to him. He is now on a regional tour of South East Asia, partly to explain why the Saudis have increased the cost of a pilgrim visas to Mecca and partly to invest in other countries labour, as they can't rely on Saudi's to take up the slack when the oil runs out.

False Idols

When a Glasgow shopkeeper was murdered in cold blood in his tobacconists, by Sunni Muslim Tanveer Ahmed from Bradford, because he was from the 'wrong' Islamic sect, his killer was rightly sentenced to a long stretch in prison.

Face Of A Cowardly Murderer .....

But apparently he is considered to many in Pakistan, to be a hero and warrior, for stabbing an unsuspecting and unarmed man to death in cold blood.

Clear And Present Danger To Themselves

This blog has posted before on the phenomena of those Westerners, who apparently against all common sense put themselves and others in grave danger, by going to locations where they are likely to be taken hostage or killed, usually simply for being white, and usually a non-believer as well.

Philippine Navy Finds The Remains Of Another Hostage Taking ....

Normally these are people, are men or women of a certain mind-set, who somehow come to think that they are not in ant danger of being ill treated by the very people who they are going to 'help'.
