Fantastic logic. First, based on your own words, you do believe that Muslims can be easily recruited to become terrorists. That in itself is worrisome. At the same time, how many Christians, Buddhists, Hindus and Jews do you think would be influenced to become terrorists? None?? Right!
So for a Muslim to become a terrorist, all the motivation they need is for someone to tell them that some country is Anti-Muslim.. right? And then they will sign up in hordes for their holy jihad. How wonderful this peace loving religion is. How nice it would be, if you yourself, could shelter some of these peaceful loving refugees in your own home. Have you done so yet?
Now, how about a situation where America invites a million of these so called "refugees" amongst whom there will definitely be many terrorists infiltrating in the guise of persecuted youth and wannabe students. Just like how Europe has had fun opening it's borders to these people?
So, based on your ideas and well wishes for America, we should open our borders and wave friendship flags and invite a million refugees. Now, once these peace loving innocent youth and persecuted people step foot in here, what guarantee do we have that they won't play the same mind games and recruit people right here? Hell,.. in a year or two, we might have these ISIS recruiting offices right here in all our 50 states!
I'd rather have these refugees stay right where they are and think whatever they want to think about America. We don't need them to tag us as "Friendly" or "Non-Friendly". Nobody cares about what they think. America is a land of immigrants, but not for those who wish to come here and harm us. Let them recruit abroad and we can target their training camps and eliminate them right where they are. It would be more difficult to target them if they lived amongst us.
After 9/11, thanks to these jihadis, we Americans started losing our right to privacy, started being strip searched at airports and a whole lot of our basic freedoms were just lost. Imagine the day when we invite millions of them here...whatever little freedom we have will be lost too in the name of national security.
I totally agree with what President Trump did. Better play safe than regret.
It's quite frankly hard to know where to start addressing such a barrage of nonsense. For starters, my assessment of how easily people can be recruited to commit acts of barbarism is not exclusive to Muslims as you claim, it's pretty much universal. Sadly, there is a segment of humanity -- regardless of nationality, religion, or race -- that is capable of either directly committing atrocities or turning a blind eye to them the minute anyone provides them with anything that even remotely resembles justification. Nazi Germany is a perfect illustration of that point despite the near total absence of Muslims among that population.
Moving on, your apparent belief that only Muslims can be be influenced to become terrorists is humorous for a couple of reasons. First, because it suggests a staggering degree of ignorance. Timothy McVeigh, Dylan Roof, the Unabomber, Michael Page, Eric Rudolph, are a few examples of lone wolf type non-Muslim domestic terrorists. On top of that, we have groups like the KKK, and a whole host of white nationalist militia groups that have either committed or plotted to commit a steady stream of domestic attacks over the years (ever read a newspaper?) .
But, there's another reason that makes your sense of moral superiority to Muslims even more laughable. You seem to buy into the simpleminded idea that since many terrorists are Muslims, that that's proof that Muslims are by nature more prone to evil. You apparently haven't yet figured out that the reason certain groups or nations resort to terrorism is because that's the only means they have of waging war. So, for example, if we as a nation don't commit acts of terrorism ( in the strictest sense of the word ) against a country like Iraq, it's not because we're better people, it's because it would be stupid to attack using suicide bombers when we can blow Iraqis up from the safety of actual bombers. Meanwhile, even though we killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians ( ie the equivalent of a few hundred 9/11's ) and effectively destroyed the lives of about 25 million Iraqis, people like you still manage to feel that Muslims have cornered the market on evil. I promise you that if we handed ISIS some nukes, an air-force, a navy, etc. , that they'd instantly stop being terrorists and start killing us in a manner you deem more civilized.
As far as how easy it is to convince people to commit acts of terror, as I recall, 70% of Americans backed the invasion of Iraq and all that was needed to motivate them to back that atrocity was "for someone to tell them that some country" hates Americans. There are about 1.6 billion Muslims in the world. Imagine how much trouble we'd be in if the day ever came when 70% of Muslims became as gullible/stupid as Americans.
As I said earlier, among every group on the planet there are people who will happily descend into barbarism the minute they're convinced another group is a threat to them. In Syria, those people are called ISIS while in America they're called Trump supporters. The only difference between those two groups is the belief that the other group "started it". Let's recall that Trump favors torture, the killing of innocent civilians, and more broadly responding in kind to ISIS's atrocities. In other words, the man you support is not much different than the people we call our enemies. So how hard was it to convince you to embrace Trump's brand of terrorism? Clearly not that hard at all.
