It's a question of them and US

Article Abstract:

Tariq Ramadan, a Swiss Muslim perceived as being somebody who could help transform the way Islam relates to the West, is profiled in the light of efforts by some within the US government to keep him out of the country. Colin Powell, the US Secretary of State, expressed his displeasure with the Department of Homeland Security when the latter revoked Ramadan's visa only nine days before he was scheduled to take up his appointment as the Henry R. Luce professor of religion, conflict and peace-building at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana.
