Dozens of Foreign Service officers and other career diplomats stationed around the world are so concerned about President Donald Trump's new executive order restricting Syrian refugees and other immigrants from entering the United States that they are contemplating taking the rare step of sending a formal objection to senior State Department officials in Washington.
In recent days, drafts of a so-called “dissent” memo have been circulating among diplomats and associates abroad expressing concern that the new restrictions -- which President Trump said would help “keep America safe” –- are un-American and will actually paralyze efforts to stop terrorist attacks inside the U.S. homeland.
"This ban ... will not achieve its stated aim to protect the American people from terrorist attacks by foreign nationals admitted to the United States,” warned one early draft reviewed by ABC News.
