Correct, but it appears that the article is saying all Palestinians would be barred.

    No. See https://www.jsonline.com/story/opinion/2023/10/19/israel-war-palestinians-suffer-hamas-gaza/71227826007/

      These countries are not the US. The US does not bar a specific ethnic groups. Of course, it can bar individuals suspected of being terrorists.

        The US should not bar entry to a specific group of people unless it can show that everyone in the group is a threat to the US. With Palestinians I don't see how that can be done since many Palestinians already live in the country and are good citizens.

          From https://www.voanews.com/a/middle-east_voa-news-iran_bidens-iran-travel-ban-repeal-reignites-debate-about-whether-us-can/6202745.html

          Biden repealed former President Donald Trump’s travel ban on Iran and 12 other nations within hours of taking office on January 20. He said the visa restrictions on citizens of those nations, seven of them predominantly Muslim states in the Middle East and Africa, were inconsistent with a U.S. tradition of welcoming people of all faiths and undermined national security.

            It says most don't support Hamas but how many don't support terrorism?

            From the above link: What I learned – and what is most important for you to know about Palestinians – is that although Hamas is a terrorist organization, few Palestinians adhere to their terrorist ideology.
