Pandith: ‘Rationale’ of Trump’s Order Means Every Country Should Be on List

‘What every security expert knows is that the greatest threat that we have right now is what’s happening inside of the homeland’

PANDITH: "Governor, that’s assuming that on January 19th that there was one kind of intelligence, and on January 20th there was another kind of intelligence. That is assuming that President Obama didn’t want to keep America safe. And that in fact he didn’t have the kind of wisdom to be able to put certain countries on that list. America is made up of the most diverse group of Muslims anywhere in the world. And they represent every country on the planet. But the rationale of this executive order, you would have to put every country in the world on that list. What every security expert knows is that the greatest threat that we have right now is what’s happening inside of the homeland. And we have ISIS cells in every single state. What we ought to be doing and what the president can do to succeed in defeating ISIS is to look inward to raise up civil society that can push back and not allow radicalization from happening."
