    Perhaps because Trump characterized it that way a dozen times on the campaign trail and shortly after his win.

    Was there ever a Muslim ban? Yes or no

    There was a travel ban from seven Muslim majority countries that more than one court found was discriminatory in intent.

    Was it a broad spectrum ban of Muslims per se?

    No.

    Another weak analogy, tbh.

    You've been on a roll lately.

    Seriously, DMC, do you find the NATSEC rationale compelling?

    Trump described it as a Muslim ban during the campaign, asked his lawyers to tailor a policy that would pass cons utional muster, and it took them two tries.

    No.
    Israel is a Jewish majority country

    Come on, winehole, a journalist commenting about the policies of a foreign country is exactly the same as banning the travelers from a foreign country. Words are legislation. Government is citizens.

    Looks like Hill really should have explained his remarks better about a Palestinian state IMO. His reaction to requests was too derpish to keep him on. What pundit refuses to talk about his views?

    Agreed. Low-quality sycophant. He needed to go.

    Yes, because it appears you have no idea what it means.

    Strawman per the usual

    A policy aimed at a region isn't aimed at the predominant religion per se, even if the predominant religion is the catalyst for the policy in the first place. Same with Israel. How can you go river to sea without going through Israel? Either Hill was being coy (thus the applause from the pro-Palestinian contingent) or he's ing stupid. Either way he lost his job with CNN.

    "Palestine – from the River to the Sea, from its north to its south – is our land, our right, and our homeland. There will be no relinquishing or forsaking even an inch or small part of it,"[10] and that "we shall not relinquish the Islamic waqf on the land of Palestine, and Jerusalem shall not be divided into Western and Eastern Jerusalem. Jerusalem is a single united [city], and Palestine stretches from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River, and from Naqoura [Rosh Ha-Niqra] to Umm Al-Rashrash [Eilat] in the south." - Hamas

    Shocking that a liberal professor sympathizes with terrorists.

    Run-of-the-mill leftists don't subscribe to or even understand such nuance.

    They understand it for Christianity only. All other religions are acceptable and they'll fight for those. They'll a bean if an American Christian does anything close to the "separation of church and state" violations predominately Muslim countries commit on a regular basis. Same is true for civil rights. Somehow being Muslim equates to a free pass on human rights and separation of church and state.

    You do realize there will come a day that I may be to bored with this to even indulge your triteness whatsoever, right? (Pretty much the reason everyone stops talking to you, eventually) Sociopath or not, you need to start making your questions and points at least try to count for something.

    That "someone" will certainly be you focusing on piddly or false stuff...

    You'll spend hours on a nothing sandwich, which is why everyone who has ever been your 'nemesis' has eventually walked away. The history doesn't lie.
