Albania is actually mostly atheist/agnostic country. It has three religions on paper but most people are not religious at all. It is a staunch US ally and part of NATO as well.

That logic doesn't hold water. If the rule was banning any country that has any muslims then it would ban 98% of European countries, as all have a %percentage of practicing muslims.

This rule seems more like a childish fit, to appease to the base voter that voted out of fear of muslims in general.



Yeah, there was an article on HN today from a Venezuelan writer (which HN flagged away ...) describing Chavez's and Trump's tactic, which is to paint a group with the bad guy label, and whip people up to hate that group, and in turn love the guy who says only he can save them.
