No, they (well, Trump specifically) announced that Christians (not "non-Muslims") would be given priority consideration ahead of other refugees.

Perhaps it is because religious minorities are heavily persecuted in those countries.

If Trump wanted a Muslim ban, why wouldn't he ban Indonesians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, etc?

As a Muslim, I'm quite appalled by the nonchalant reaction on HN, so I'm just going to downvote and continue following the news.

Can you provide the source please? BBC says that the minority will have a priority e.g. Shia in Yemen.
