The former secretary of state will stand in solidarity if Trump starts registering people.


Madeleine Albright snapped back at the news of President Donald Trump’s plan to shut some people out of America with a call for human solidarity.

The former secretary of state tweeted Wednesday that she is “ready to register as Muslim” herself, even as Trump prepares to single out travelers from Muslim-majority countries.

Albright, an immigrant who was born in Czechoslovakia in 1937 but left at the age of 2 after the Nazi occupation, also tweeted a picture of the Statue of Liberty with the famous words:

“Give me your tired, your poor, / Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, / The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. / Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, / I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

There is no fine print on the Statue of Liberty. America must remain open to people of all faiths & backgrounds. #RefugeesWelcome

”America must remain open to people of all faiths & backgrounds,” she wrote below the image.

Albright’s tweets came in response to news of a draft executive order that would ban refugee admissions for up to four months. It would also temporarily halt visas for people from the Muslim-majority countries of Syria, Iran, Sudan, Libya, Somalia and Yemen. By issuing this order, Trump would make good on his campaign promise to ban immigration from countries “compromised by terrorism.”

Albright acknowledged on a Thursday press call, organized by refugee groups, that a registry of Muslims in the U.S. was not part of the proposed executive order. But, she said, “by targeting Muslim-majority countries, there is no question that this order is biased against Muslims, and when one faith is targeted, it puts us all at risk.”

In November 2015, Trump was asked by a reporter if he thought there should be a database that tracks Muslims in this country. Trump’s answer was indirect and focused mainly on building a wall along the Mexican border. When pressed again by the reporter, he said, “I would certainly implement that, absolutely.”

Trump later tweeted that he did not suggest a database, yet his post still raised eyebrows:

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump
I didn't suggest a database-a reporter did. We must defeat Islamic terrorism & have surveillance, including a watch list, to protect America

Shortly after Trump was elected, it was reported that his team was considering the possibility of reviving a registry of immigrants and visitors from “higher risk” countries. And Rex Tillerson, Trump’s nominee for secretary of state, sidestepped the question of whether he would support a Muslim registry during his confirmation hearing:

Well she supported the Muzlims in Bosnia, so I am not  surprised she is converting. The only question is why she took this long.

So... basically, none of you got her POINT!

Oh looky who dropped down from the rafters as soon as I posted.    It took a few minutes this time you are slipping

Isn't it funny how the BO hates to be picked up on her own trolling.. and throws some personal abuse in for good measure. Well done   

You can spin her "point" any way you wish, like the author of this thread, Mady is an Islamophile.

Which goes to show how little you understand of what is said to you.

I don't support any religion. I think they're all daft.

I support people.

Yes yes - all very melodramatic and 'moral signaling' from this woman.

Trump is following up on what Newt Gingrich preached for years without any backlash from the luvvies.

Trump should be in line for a Nobel Peace Prize for this initiative to quarantine the enemies of Western civilisation.

Trump will be doubly vindicated if he's voted in for a second term.

Get off your high horse, little fella.

For starters, nobody is defending any religion.

Moreover, you're the one who continues to defend a self-confessed sexual predator, who is accused of raping, beating, and then threatening to kill children.

How do you live with yourself?

Reneging dissonance

You haven't done too much thinking at all, Boges.

Tell us, why do you continue to defend a self-confessed sexual predator, who is accused of raping, beating, and then threatening to harm or kill children (and/or their families).

And, why do you support Saudi terrorists?

I'll be happy if it means America's blacks can finally get a chance of securing a job within reasonable distance of where they live. The hopelessness of long-term unemployment is why so many blacks are finally driven to commit crime ... for material gain and out of sheer boredom.

Those 11 million South American 'Illegals' in the US is not America's problem.

The blacks should have priority over all immigrants and refugees to America - including the whites.
