Sad as it may seem, the need for security at some level is always a requirement in any rational society. That security to enter the US on a visa is much tighter is a necessary part of security form the mad Islamists and others who would destroy us and our way of life.
By taking precautions we do lose something that is valuable to us, the exchange of ideas and ease of travel, but Friedman's alternative idealistic alternative of changing Islamic thinking and encouraging them to be more like us provides no short term security from the lunatic Islamic fringe. Sad but true, the world is a dangerous and hostile place.
