Over the weekend we learned that at least one of the ISIS terrorists who carried out the worst terror attack in France since World War II came into Europe by posing as a Syrian refugee. Despite this fact, President Obama has no plans to re-evaluate his calls to increase the number of Syrian refugees the United States accepts.
"We're still planning on taking in Syrian refugees," White House Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes said on "Fox News Sunday." "We had very robust vetting procedures for those refugees."
As a reminder of Obama administration policy on this issue:
In an announcement made Thursday afternoon, the White House confirmed plans to bring 10,000 Syrian refugees to the United States. There is no word yet on what the vetting process will be for refugees or how the White House plans to assure Americans the process will prevent ISIS terrorists from making their way into the United States.
"The United States, at the direction of the United States[Nations?], has played a leading role in addressing the dire humanitarian crisis in the Middle East and North Africa," White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said Thursday during the daily briefing. "One thing that the United States can do is to begin to let more Syrian refugees into the United States. This year, this fiscal year that will end this month, the United States is on track to take in about 1500 Syrian refugees. The president has directed his team to scale up that number next year and he's informed his team he would like them to accept, at least make preparations, for 10,000 refugees."
Officials at the FBI and Homeland Security have repeatedly warned that there is no infrastructure in place to properly vet refugees coming into the country, making the United States a prime target for ISIS terrorists claiming asylum.
"We're a compassionate nation and this is a tragic situation but I also have to be concerned as Chairman of Homeland Security about the safety of Americans in this country and the concern that I have and that the FBI testified to is that we don’t really have the proper databases on these individuals to vet them passed and to assure we're not allowing terrorists to come into this country and until I have that assurance, I cannot support a program that could potentially bring jihadists into the United States," House Homeland Security Chairman Michael McCaul said a recent interview with Fox News. "We don't know who these people are and I think that’s the bottom line here and until we know who they are, we cannot responsibly bring them into the United States."
On Saturday, the first round of new Syrian refugees arrived in New Orleans. ISIS has repeatedly said they will use the current refugee crisis to transfer trained fighter from Iraq and Syria to Western Europe and the United States to carry out attacks.
These aren't refugees ... they are ISIS assassins.
This from the same group that said ISIS is contained.
This administration has committed to taking in 185,000 Syrian “refugees†over the next 2 years.Obama assures that they will not be dangerous because they will be the most “vetted†immigrants in history.The FBI says they have no fingerprint records or criminal records to review on these folks because they are “fleeing†Assad, whose government would have records. So how are they vetted? Sounds like the blindness of another we will not know what’s in it until we pass it moment.
What intelligence agency in Syria did they contact? Or did they just ask canned questions and if they gave the right answers they were allowed in?
If we don't know where the planes are landing we'll know once the 'refugees' are resettled. Show up there en mass and let them know we don't want them here because we can't trust them.
Take to the streets Americans before some rag head starts throwing hand grenades in the stands at a football game!
The title of this article should read, “...OBAMA HAS NO PLANS...FOR ANYTHING, HE’S BEEN WINGING IT SINCE ‘09”.
Immigration Form:
1. Are you a refugee? Yes. No.
2. Will you vote democrat? Yes. No.
End of form
Vetting process:
"Raise your hand if you plan to go to America to do harm to Americans."
"No one?"
"Ok Joe, this group is cleared."
"You boys have a nice flight!"
Why not go en mas to Washington, D.C., and refuse to let the President out of the White House, hmm?
We should be targeting the source of our anger. He should be working for us and not for a bunch of Muslims from the Near East.
I agree.
Agreed!
My guess is, they’ll be given a nice, recently repossessed home near you and me. (Courtesy of our wonderful economy via Obama policies)
They start moving into my neighborhood, they’re gonna feel very unwelcome and very uncomfortable. Just a hunch...
I’m with you!
Why is the HOR financing it?? They always do find just enough traitors to vote against law-abiding US citizens, don’t they?
One final note to all ISIS refugees:
Be advised that bombs are not allowed in the overhead bins. All bombs must be placed in checked baggage, only.
This is an effective way to give a boost to ISIS in this country. Obama wants to bring them in legally. If they were refugees they would have headed for Muslim countries. They are mainly young males who are full of demands and surely will hate us.
Ofail has no way to vet these people. He has no clue who they are. Or maybe he does.
THAT is awesome. It makes the feigned ignorance and insane “priorities” of the democRATS absolutely crystal clear
If only there were a target on the source of our anger, that would greatly please me.
They asked them if they are terrorists, and they said they weren't.
