walid phares, fox news national security and foreign policy expert. all right, dr. phares, good to you have on the show tonight. >> thank you. judge jeanine: some kerfuffle when rudy giuliani was clear it wasn't about religion, it was about identifying those who are a danger or pose a dorj american citizens. now you were an adviser to donald trump during the president's campaign. what is your position? how do you feel about this ban and what do you think it will accomplish in the short term? >> judge, thank you for having me. indeed it is not about religion. i have read nothing in the executive order or any statement any, tweet that this was about any aspect of religion, not even ideology. i would say. what is happening right now is a choice. either we maintain the poflts previous administration, the obama administration where jihadism growing all over the region, specifically in the seven countries and beyond or we'll have more orlandos and californias, or want to change? this executive order is the beginning of a policy change and designates a number of countries
