BERLIN — Government travel advisories are common for war-torn, disease-ravaged nations, but a growing number of countries are warning their citizens about taking trips to the United States.

The United Arab Emirates, Bahamas, France, United Kingdom, Canada, New Zealand and Germany are among those urging caution to U.S.-bound travelers. The concerns include mass shootings, police violence, anti-Muslim and anti-LGBT attitudes and the Zika virus.

While it is too soon to determine if the warnings are hurting U.S. tourism, the warnings tarnish the image the U.S. promotes abroad of a country that prides itself on being a welcoming society and bastion of democracy.

This is all happening under Obama.

I would be totally unsurprised if it came out that Obama's Foggy Bottom urged some of those countries to issue those warnings! Now, where was it, a couple of weeks ago, that tourists from the US, Australia, and Israel were all stabbed in a mass stabbing (the American lady died)? Could it be? Yes, it was ... London, in the heart of the historical and theater area to which tourists go.
