Peace- and women’s rights activist and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Tawakkol Karman has expressed concern about the measures taken by President Donald Trump who signed an executive order in which people

with roots in seven Muslim-majority countries including Yemen were targeted with certain travel restrictions.  

In a statement shared on her official Facebook account, Karman stated that the statement “radical Islamic terrorism” launched by Trump who had pledged to protect America from it and has recently began to take measures including banning on Muslims entering the" New World "- as America was called by the founders- means: we are terrorists because are Muslims. 

She pointed out that Trump and his aides came to the White House with the conviction that “our Islam is a religion of terrorism and its followers are a nation of terrorists," explaining that such belief is attributed to intolerance, hatred and racism, and is based on no reasonable grounds.

"I could not imagine where the world would be led by this racism, just as I could not have imagined that a UN administration with such harmful specifications would have reached the White House," she added. 

Mrs. Karman continued to say, "We are before an administration that wants a new world without Muslims, and this kind of world is actually a very old one, which would bring us to the era of the Crusades are rather than to a United States being opened to all races, colors, religions and ethnics as the founder wanted.”

She showed that Trump’s ban on Syrians refugees traveling to America excludes Christians of Syria, seeing that this indicates that he has reached record levels of irrationality. 

"The classification of people according to their religion is morally reprehensible, and even the most fanatical ordinary people in the civilized world could profess it openly,” she thought. 

Karman denounced Trump’s executive order also indefinitely bans entry for all Syrian refugees and establishes a religious test for refugees moving forward, prioritizing Christians and members of religious minority groups in Muslim countries.

He expressed disappointment at what has taken place in the United States, emphasizing that she has never expected that things would have reached this point. 

"We don’t know how many executive orders and discriminatory measures would be taken by Trump administration before the Americans wakes up and put an end to this absurd, which detracts from the United States and makes it lose its soul, conscience and the most important factor of power,” she worried. 

Karman concluded by saying, “do we have the right to express this truly justified concern: what is the size of the risks facing millions of Muslims hailing from the United States itself or remaining there as residents under a US administration overflowing with this amount of incitement and hatred?"

On Friday, Trump had signed an executive order that bars citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States for the next 90 days and suspends the admission of all refugees for 120 days.
