Is Trump's travel ban Islamophobic? (video)



US President Donald Trump's ban on some Muslims entering the US sparks worldwide outcry.


Despite protests at US airports, from lawyers in court, and political leaders abroad, President Donald Trump is refusing to drop his travel ban on citizens from seven Muslim-majority countries.
He says it's about protecting US citizens and preventing what he calls terrorist attacks.
His executive order recalls the September 11 attacks in 2001, when passenger jets flew into New York's Twin Towers.
But the 19 hijackers on those planes were from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE, and Lebanon - none of the countries on Trump's banned list.
