According to a draft document obtained by Associated Press, analysts at the US Department of Homeland Security’s intelligence unit concluded that citizenship in the targeted countries is an “unlikely indicator” of a person’s potential to conduct a terror attack.
It added that few people from those countries have carried out attacks or been involved in terrorism-related activities in the United States unlike what Trump claims.
The countries listed in the temporary travel ban were Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.
