Well, first I would need to know more details about that policy to decide if that's actually a good thing or a bad thing. So far, it seems that the idea behind that is mainly for vetting purposes. Maybe the only goal for this is to detect signs of radicalism amongst Muslims or them having links to ISIS or other extremist elements. But I wouldn't say that it is "anti-Islamic" yet because, again, so far I don't see how it undermines or restricts Muslims' freedom to practice their religion the way it is right now.
With the same logic you used, I could also argue that the US government is anti-American because the NSA has been storing Americans' emails and other personal information in a database without even telling them.
