Ban on Tariq Ramadan Lifted
The ban on Tariq Ramadan visiting the United States has been lifted. About time. His appointment at Notre Dame had to be abandoned a few years back because the US wouldn't grant him a visa. I may not agree with everything Tariq Ramadan believes, but I certainly don't think he's outside the bounds of moderate Islamist thought. He's a professor at Oxford. He's Swiss. I never did get it, but it certainly exercised some of the usual suspects a lot when he was earlier offered the Notre Dame job.
