BAGHDAD -- Gen. Talib al Kenani commands the elite American-trained counter terrorist forces that have been leading the fight against ISIS for two years.
Im a four star general, and Im banned from entering the U.S.? he said.
His family was relocated to the U.S. for their safety, and hed had plans to see them next week, until he was told not to bother.
I have been fighting terrorism for 13 years and winning, he said. Now my kids are now asking if Im a terrorist?

This ban needs to be reviewed, Kenani said. We thought we were partners with our American friends, and now we realize that were just considered terrorists.
The general said he may try again to travel later this week, but he still doesnt have any guarantee he wont be turned around. He said the ban came as a shock, and no one in his circles had any idea it was coming.

There's Donnie, winning friends and influencing people all over the world.
