US halts Afghan immigration requests after National Guard attack • FRANCE 24 English
Opening fire with a revolver, the gunman critically injured two National Guard soldiers near the White House a day before Thanksgiving. Now the question is why? While investigators led by the FBI worked to determine a motive, the US president immediately seized upon the suspect’s nationality. The suspect in custody is a foreigner who entered our country from Afghanistan, a hellhole on Earth. We must now re-examine every single alien who has entered our country from Afghanistan under Biden. The administration then said it was halting all immigration requests from Afghan nationals. The Department of Homeland Security named the suspect as Washington state resident Rammanula Lakanwal, saying he entered the US in 2021 under a program to resettle Afghans who helped fight the Taliban and who feared reprisals after the Americans pulled out of the country. NBC News reported that Lacano served in the Afghan army for a decade alongside US troops and Reuters reported that he had his asylum request approved in April this year. The two hospitalized soldiers are part of a controversial deployment of the West Virginia National Guard to the US capital in a show of force over crime. In response to the shooting, President Trump has ordered 500 more Guardsmen to the city. A judge last week ordered the deployment to end pending appeal.
Two National Guard soldiers were critically wounded near the White House by Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghan national and US asylum recipient. The suspect is in custody, and investigators are probing a motive. President Trump responded by halting Afghan immigration requests and sending 500 additional Guardsmen to Washington.

There's no reason to let anyone from countries like Afghanistan into your country….
Afghanistan is a Terrorist country.
The so-called 'muslim ban' was not such a bad idea after all.
Thank you Mr president.
Stateside ain't what it used to be.
Religion of crap at work
Europe has major problems, the massive amounts of immigrants that have flooded in from very different cultures. Brussels and the EU elites don’t care about Europeans. Bring back borders and enforce returns of those here illegally or Europe is done for.
of course he would act like a child and blame an entire country.
😡 🤬 stop all immigration
Who’s he kidding? This is the immigration policy they wanted anyway.
But how come the actions of a bad whire person or a bad Christian doesn’t judge all white or Christian people? Funny how that works.
Of course, we all know that no American has ever killed an Afghan.
Plenty Stay in India some even stay here illegally I hope now u will realise why india security is really messed up

He did nothing extraordinary….he did what he was told in religious sermons of America…he is a victim
