When we think about who to exclude from immigrating to the US, the focus should not be on the victims of terrorism but the perpetrators. A look at the national origins of the actual fighters in Syria should give us a better idea as to who to actually exclude from immigrating to the US.
Nationality of Foreign Fighters in Syria:
From Middle East Countries
Tunisia
Saudi Arabia
Jordan
Morocco
Lebanon
Libya
Turkey
Egypt
Iraq
Algeria
Palestine
Sudan
Kuwait
Qatar
United Arab Emirates
Bahrain
Mauritania
Oman
----
From Other Countries

France
United Kingdom
Belgium
Germany
Netherlands
Kosovo
Denmark
Spain
Sweden
United States
Austria
Indonesia
Italy
Norway
Finland
Ireland
Canada
Switzerland
Kyrgyzstan
Luxembourg
Singapore
If we adhere to a focus on the fighters we should be concerned about, instead of the victims who we have no reason to fear, we might actually be safer. So, with this list in hand, it looks like we have a lot of excluding to do.
