Kuwaiti government introduced a US-like travel ban on passport holders of five Muslim-majority countries, according Gulf state.
The Kuwaiti new blanket ban includes Syrians, Iraqis, Iranians, Pakistanis and Afghans.
The ban is in place and citizens from those countries are not able to obtain visit, tourism or trade Kuwaiti visas.
The Kuwaiti state ascribes the travel restrictions to the instability and the existence of terrorist groups in those countries and that the ban would be lifted once the security situation improves.

So the United States has aspirations to be like Kuwait? Nice to see the bar raised so high.
I have zero interest in my country modeling itself after any M.E. country.
Then why are you all for importing terrorists?

The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), now threatening Baghdad, was funded for years by wealthy donors in Kuwait, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, three U.S. allies that have dual agendas in the war on terror.

I'm just curious.
The reason for the temporary stay on accepting refugees was to put in place a better vetting procedure so that we can take better care to make sure we don't import terrorists along with the refugees.
If you truly do not want to be like a ME country, then you would be all for this because it's intent is to make sure we don't become an instable, terrorist ridden hell hole.
