Jews were kept from entering in 1924 on as it was feared not that they would attack people in this country, but would take away jobs others needed. There had been a big influx of eastern European Jews and this slowdown came at a time they most needed to escape the anti-Semitism that was building up then.
"The Immigration Act of 1924, or Johnson–Reed Act, including the National Origins Act, and Asian Exclusion Act (Pub.L. 68–139, 43 Stat. 153, enacted May 26, 1924), was a United States federal law that limited the annual number of immigrants who could be admitted from any country to 2% of the number of people from that country who were already living in the United States as of the 1890 census, down from the 3% cap set by the Emergency Quota Act of 1921, which used the Census of 1910. The law was primarily aimed at further restricting immigration of Southern Europeans and Eastern Europeans, especially Italians and Eastern European Jews."
My uncle was possibly the last Jew to get out of Germany in May 1939 and take a ship to the USA. In order to do so, he had to have a sponsor who would take all economic responsibility for him. G-d forbid that the USA would have to spend any money supporting him. My great uncle, Max Turn of La Grande, Oregon, took this responsibility, and got him a job with his nephew, Morris Goldfoot. It turned out to be a good match in Morris's new business of wholesale meats, and they became partners and brothers in law after a few years. During the first part of WWII, Jews couldn't get to the USA, Palestine or anywhere. They had to have documents showing they had been baptized as Christians. Of course Jews were not allowed.
During WWII, we were at war with Japan. We stopped Japanese immigration. At the same time, we had many recent immigrants here from Japan. They were all rounded up and placed in internment camps. They had to sell their homes at outrageously low prices, taking a loss. The California Japanese were brought up to Portland and placed in the International stockyards that had held cattle for the duration of the war. Somehow, some wound up in Eastern Oregon, far from the ocean where they were feared the most to be able to warn Japanese submarines, and were allowed to farm.
The Middle East has gone crazy; meshugana. ISIS is a very Muslim movement that is intent on taking over all the Middle East countries and then work on Europe. This is reflecting the same experience Islam went through in their beginning stages when they did and reached Spain, etc about 1,500 years ago. You can see that ISIS is bloodthirsty and loves to cut off heads, just like they used to do.
Iraq and Syria have been destroyed by ISIS and are now in their hands with the USA trying to deter them without having boots on the ground. The fact is that they have now taken over these places and have Iraq's air force jets and only need pilots which they may or may not have at this point.
One thing they do have are lots and lots of people dedicated to giving their lives for their cause. I suppose it's a psychological thing to belong to a cause for them, even though it is of taking lives, something we in the West are highly against.
We have laws on the books about screening immigrants, but no one has been following them. We need something more other than the brief screening in order to assure our people that no one intent on helping the ISIS cause would be entering our country and causing any mass deaths like has already happened.
Our president has laid out a plan that would call for the stopping of entrance of people from 6 Middle Eastern countries which happen to be Muslim majority countries. That's because ISIS's cause is of a radical Muslim philosophy.
Let me tell you something. In 2013, when Obama was President, I tried to get a Syrian to the USA who was my friend. He had been told that his birth mother was Jewish, not a Muslim. His father had fallen in love with her. He was excited about it and wanted to study Judaism. He felt Jewish, he told me. I did everything I could under the sun to get him here and couldn't. Syria was on a list. He was a young man. I was not a relative. He had none here. Nobody wanted a Syrian here that would need a job-he would be taking away a job from others. He was an engineer. I was told that only-only if he were a famous person, like an atomic scientist, could he ever get here, and then it might take a year or so to do so. Yes, I was even conversing with my Senator. It was impossible and now...now I just met a lovely young man working in a restaurant from Iraq, and before that met many from Iraq working in a parking garage. Refugees have been coming in, but I still couldn't get my friend in, and he couldn't do it, either.
This is not a perfect world. It takes time to change people's attitudes.
9/11 started the fear and worry about Muslim immigrants. "The September 11 attacks (also referred to as 9/11)[ were a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks by the Islamic terrorist group al-Qaeda on the United States on the morning of Tuesday, September 11, 2001. The attacks killed 2,996 people, injured over 6,000 others, and caused at least $10 billion in property and infrastructure damage and $3 trillion in total costs." These killers came from Saudi Arabia, a 100% Muslim country.
What we still fear are things like what happened in Boston. Those immigrant brothers weren't even from the Middle East proper, but were Muslims. "On April 15, 2013, two homemade bombs detonated 12 seconds and 210 yards (190 m) apart at 2:49 p.m., near the finish line of the annual Boston Marathon, killing three people and injuring several hundred others, including 16 who lost limbs."
The acts of the few cause the attitudes for the whole group. That's why the Chinese have always been so aware of their actions affecting the whole family and bringing dishonor to them. Killings have happened by Muslims; in acts killing 1 or as many as 53. This doesn't help us to think that they're not out to get us all. An act of 1 dying give all Muslims in the USA a bad name. People who are a minority, such as Jews, Blacks, Orientals, Native Americans, all recognize this fact. Muslims must, too.
"Since 9/11, an additional 145 Americans have been killed in 50 separate acts of deadly Islamic terror or Islam-related honor killing in the United States. Hundreds of mass murder plots have been thwarted or botched. The real story is not "Islamophobia" but American tolerance - which rightly refuses to punish the individual based on group identity. "Evidently much of this tolerance is from Hollywood, but the rest of us know it can still happen. That's because nothing has changed in the world to cause it to change. " Studies show that between 5 - 25% of Muslims in America believe that violence in defense of Islam is justified. "
I have to add this one because meshuganas can crawl out of the woodwork:
Sharia law is a Muslim law. We live under American laws. A religious law should only apply to those of that religion; not to others.
Trump is President because he answered the call to protect our country better. He's not the first to check out our immigration system. You can't accept a 3 month halt to 6 countries who are the worst, loaded with radicals while a better screening system is created? You know, I can't get into Iran, or Saudi Arabia. I'm a Jew and I'm an Israeli as well as an American. I wouldn't dream of blowing anyone or anything up. My password is TO LIFE! Yet I'm not allowed. It's not a perfect world. Not yet. Maybe when Saudi Arabia allows people like me to visit their country--not even to live there, as these immigrants want to do, then we might stop worrying about radical Muslims entering our country without any malice against us in their hearts.

Any country, especially our country, has to right to defend itself and its population, and part of that defense involves screening people entering as immigrants.
Our country used to turn back people who were ill. We've made progress.
Now it's only people who belong to a group who might want to kill us that need screening.

| How did this young couple get into the USA? They were ISIS This July 27, 2014, file photo provided by U.S. Customs and Border Protection shows it's only common sense to really screen Muslim immigrants. She, I remember was one of the worst. She was even a mother to a young child. |
