I think the main problem is the lack of education and not the religion(s). And the eastern world is poorly educated.

There's a direct correlation because their lack of education is what allows Islam to be so overbearing. I have a lot of Muslim friends and many are intelligent people. The common denominator between them is that they realize Islam is a bit ridiculous in 2017. That's what happens when you get a view of the developed through the Internet. Not all Muslims have that luxury though. There are some countries in the Middle East that are still poorly developed, and many of them were countries listed on the temporary ban list.

As for the muslim ban - I can understand that you want to protect your country but is it the right solution? How can I differ between a muslim and a terrorist? Are you going to put a c4 and a swastika infront of him and see what he picks? It's nearly impossible to differ.

You can't differentiate them and that's why the proposed ban is so broad. The upside is that it's a blanket solution to having extremists enter the country and the downside is that we get less migrants. One is obviously more important to us than the other, as it very well should be. The US is not in an any type of migrant shortage crisis, but there is hysteria worldwide about terrorism.
Japan is one of the most developed countries in the world and has one of the strictest immigration policies. They aren't crucified for it, and they shouldn't be. Same with Austria. Austria is so fed up with immigration that they're
offering migrants cash bonuses to leave their country. These are two of the highest-ranking countries on the Global Peace Index, too.
Islam has to go through some type of reform. People scrutinize the US, and other countries, for being "discriminatory" because they don't want these migrants in mass amounts. Real discrimination is what some of the most developed Muslim nations do to gays, women, and apostates though. Many Muslim people have owned up to their responsibility of modernizing and not following the Quran to a tee, but many Muslim nations are still extremely oppressive. How could anyone deny this?
