A terrorist attacker "Egyptian national", living now in UAE and had a Saudi visa stamp (visited) ?
So, the 3 countries that Trump did not include in the #muslimban and none of the ones included? righty-oh the cluster fuck continues

If we need any more evidence that the ban was throwing darts at a dart board, hitting 100,000 people directly, and many more indirectly, just for cheap political points then, well, this would be another twig to add to the raging bonfire.

 

[Trickster]

Can't wait to hear the spin on this

 

[Mariolee]

Because of fucking course

 

[SeaOfMadness]

He also committed the Bowling Green Massacre

 

[jmood88]

I literally said, "get the fuck outta here" when I read the title. That is insane.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Three for three. Wonderful. The Onion strikes again.
Oh, this is reality?
Think of how much more dangerous that terrorist would have been if he had been from one of the banned countries. Makes perfect sense to me.

 

[FreedomFighter]

They'll probably keep quiet about the Saudi part... play up the Egyptian/UAE connection?

 

[Toxi]

I'm understanding the South Park guys' decision more and more.

 

[Familienoberhauptvogel]

Can't make that shit up.

 

[Shadybiz]

You have GOT to be shitting me...Jesus.

 

[sphagnum]

Time to add France to the ban list.

 

[BobLoblaw]

Wow. What're the fucking odds?

 

[capitalCORN]

Quelle surprise.

 

[rrvv]

where does it say Saudi visa?

 

[jellies_two]

where does it say Saudi visa?

It doesn't but I got that part from a reliable tweet a few hour ago.

[Log4Girlz]

Time to ban Iranians twice over now

 

[Mr. Giggles]

Time to add France to the ban list.

Have you EVER been hit with a week old baguette?

Yea, I'd add france to the list

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

Can someone explain how you get a Saudi visa if you live and are travelling from the UAE?

 

[Frozenprince]

It's almost like extremists that do these attacks are produced almost exclusively from Saudi Wahhabism.

 

[jellies_two]

Now I thought torture was un-american but now realise God has a very particular sense of humor.

He still use egyptian passport.

tbh having Saudi visa doesnt mean anything. millions go to Saudi all every year. If you want to make connection with that. might as well do it for majority of muslim.

 

[Bleepey]

The onion should do a real news section.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

I'm understanding the South Park guys' decision more and more.

You really cant make this stuff up.

 

[Vilix]

Well, thank goodness all those countries have been banned. 👍

Mecca? Yes I understand completely. It is still just the cherry on the top though. You know if he had an Iraqi visa the alt-right would be bashing everyone over the head with it right at this minute no matter the explanation for it.

 

[Crocodile]

Like how else can you react when you read a title like that?

 

[Log4Girlz]

Have you EVER been hit with a week old baguette?

Yea, I'd add france to the list

The Eiffel Tower is made of old baguettes

 

[jack_package_200]

And yet none of those countries are on Donny T's Muslim Ban.

 

[zeemumu]

He's too far gone on that ban. There's no turning back now.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

He's not going to roll back the ban with this news, he'll use it to justify more bans.

Of other countries that aren't those three.

 

[Herne]

What the hell was he thinking? He charged at armed officers with a machete? Did you see some of the hardware those guys were packing? Idiot.

 

[Vilix]

I think CNN is reporting the ban has just been blocked by a federal judge in Washington state.

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

He still use egyptian passport.

Oh, "Saudi visa" means he travelled to Saudi at some point. From the importance the OP placed on the visa, I thought it meant he got a visa to travel to France by way of Saudi Arabia somehow, which sounded convoluted.

 

[JonnyDBrit]

Apparently we're playing terrorist bingo with a title like that.

For bonus points: Not a refugee.

 

[JoeyJungle]

Don't worry, the muslim ban will extend to to all countries soon enough.

 

[Violence Jack]

The spin on this should be quite interesting.

 

[jellies_two]

i am not very good at this I'd prefer the guy with fire coming off his head really.

 

[More Fun To Compute]

What the hell was he thinking? He charged at armed officers with a machete? Did you see some of the hardware those guys were packing? Idiot.

Sounds like suicide by cop if anything. Although they were soldiers.

 

[Vilix]

Another maryter for the cause.

 

[shinobi602]

My alternate facts say he was actually Iranian.

 

[The Silver]

real life > satire

usa sure does have a dog fetish

 

[AcademicSaucer]

politicians from both parties love Saudi Arabia and will defend them to the end.

 

[black_13]

Wow as if you needed any more proof that saudi arabia is a big part of the problem and US wont dare do anything about them.

 

[djkimothy]

Good thing those citizens are bann-- oh.

 

[SolarPowered]

My alternate facts say he was actually Iranian.

I bet his grandma was Iranian.

BAN!

 

[TheRealTalker]

It doesn't but I got that part from a reliable tweet a few hour ago.
https://twitter.com/jimsciutto/status/827657479907573760

apparently he was barred from entry to Saudi in 2012

idk for what reasons

 

[kmax]

Saudi Arabia is the worst of the worst - but of course they'll never get banned.

Rich countries with a US friendly attitude will never ever get banned.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

What happens when every country in the world hates America? Aside from Russia.

 

[Abstrusity]

What happens when every country in the world hates America? Aside from Russia.

We hope that other countries arm the moderate rebels so we can fight the totalitarian regime. You know, like the US and between a quarter and half of the EU member states do.
