I honestly think that there should be no one allowed to come to our Counry from a terroist country. It just opens our doors to violence against us.
The general rule of thumb has been that the US wants to take advantage of other countries, not the other way around. Think of all the US companies that move production offshore because the labor in other countries will work for a lot less money. Think of all the stories of sweatshops you have heard about. I won’t even get into the rather detailed topic of economic imperialism carried out by the US.
Off the top of my head I can’t think of any countries that have requested aid from us and then turn around and backstab us although we have sold weapons (including weapons of mass destruction) to countries that we now consider terrorist threats. This is one of the reasons why we knew that Saddam had chemical weapons (at one time). We sold them to him. Besides I believe most of the humanitarian aid we provide to other countries is through the UN.
The idea of closing our doors to people from terrorist countries is on the same level of thinking as white supremacy advocates. Because all blacks are [insert stereotype], all Jews are [insert stereotype], and ALL people from countries that have been known to house terrorist groups MUST be on a mission from Allah to kill us all! Everyone who lives in America either immigrated or had ancestors who immigrated (besides the Native Americans). To deny entry into the country for any other reason than overpopulation is rather un-American in my opinion simply because this country is defined by its immigrants.

Leave it to Robin Williams to come up with the perfect plan... what we
need now is for our UN Ambassador to stand up and repeat this message.
Robin Williams' plan...(Hard to argue with this logic!)
I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not heard of a
plan for peace. So, here's one plan:
1) The US will apologize to the world for our "interference" in their
affairs, past & present. We will promise never to "interfere" again.
2) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting with
Germany, South Korea and the Philippines. They don't want us there.
We would station troops at our borders. No more sneaking through
holes in the fence.
3) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and
leave. We'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the remainder
will be gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of who or
where they are. France would welcome them.
4) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90
day visits unless given a special permit. No one from a terrorist
nation would be allowed in. If you don't like it there, change it
yourself, don't hide here. Asylum would not ever be available to
anyone. We don't need any more cab drivers.
5) No "students" over age 21. The older ones are the bombers. If they
don't attend classes, they get a "D" and it's back home, baby.
6) The US will make a strong effort to become self sufficient energy
wise. This will include developing non polluting sources of energy
but will require a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan wilderness.
The caribou will have to cope for a while.
7) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel
for their oil. If they don't like it, we go someplace else.
8) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we
will not "interfere". They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds,
rain, cement or whatever they need. Besides, most of what we give
them gets "lost" or is taken by their army. The people who need it
most get very little, anyway.
9) Ship the UN Headquarters to an island some place. We don't need
the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, it would make a
good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens.
9b) Use the buildings as replacement for the twin towers.
10) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no
one can call us "Ugly Americans" any longer.
Now, ain't that a winner of a plan.
"The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying 'Give me your poor,
your tired, your huddled masses.' She's got a baseball bat and she's
yelling, 'You want a piece of me?'" - Robin Williams>
