The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) recently approved a final regulation to lift a longstanding prohibition on Libyans coming to the U.S. to attend flight school, to work in aviation maintenance or flight operations, or to study or seek training in nuclear science. The final regulation has been approved by OMB and can be signed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Jeh Johnson.
The prohibition was originally put in place in the 1980s after the wave of terrorist incidents involving Libyans. Not even two years after the U.S. consulate in Benghazi was attacked, which resulted in the deaths of four Americans, the Obama Administration justifies lifting this ban by claiming the United States’ relationship with Libya has since improved.
I just don't see how someone can do this and say they are looking out for America's interests.
Is there something inherently dangerous about Libyans biologically that they're not be allowed to study an field in this country? Gaddafi is dead, Libya and the U.S are no longer enemies. Why have this ban forever, and about Benghazi so what? Should Libyan students never study or train here because some militants killed our ambassador in their country?
Yeah, remember when we banned Saudi's from studying in the US?
Neither do I.
LMAO...You shut him/her up.

Libya is undergoing its worst spasm of violence since the 2011 ouster and killing of former dictator Moammar Gadhafi. Thousands have fled the country, including diplomats and foreign nationals. Scores of embassies have closed down and international organizations have shut their offices.

Yeah, that's it. The risk is to high, and the reward is too low to even consider allowing this.

Obama: Ban Lifted on Libyans Coming to the U.S. To Train as Pilots, Nuclear Scientists
What do you expect from a guy named Barak Hussein Obama.
He is looking out for America's interests allright, with his inept foreign policies, which are non-existent, and by playing golf while the country is in chaos and everything is falling apart around the world. If that's not incompetence, I don't know what is.

Racism huh? Highlighting the Hussein was telling.
