The documentation provided by those countries was less than sufficient to prove that there was no security risk. The Trump administration decided to impose a temporary ban whilst working out ways to obtain more information. Iraq has now agreed to supply more information and has been taken off the list. According to a Whitehouse press briefing, the list is not set in stone; countries could be added or removed at a later date.
BTW Terrorism is not Saudi Arabia's default method of 'attacking' America; their method appears to be influence via financial investments.

I don't think Mr K mentioned the BBC in his posts.
Main issue with the ban is that Homeland Security said it would not make the country safer. So why is Trump wasting time on a measure that does not make the country safer when he could be spending time on measures that make it safer? It looks more like posture and placating his always-believers.
