Spare us the sudden sanctimony on Syrian refugees (president sneers at citizenry)
NYPOST.COM ^ | 11/20/15 | RICH LOWRY

Posted on 11/21/2015 4:14:10 AM PST by Liz

Post-Paris Obama remarked that the murderous terrorist assault is a "setback;" but sneers that US sentiment against taking more Syrian refugees is an "atrocity."

Syrian refugees are most useful to Obama as a symbol of his alleged cosmopolitanism, and of the supposed backwardness of his opposition (we, the people).

Obama warned against that dark impulse inside of us, as if Americans are planning to draw and quarter Syrian refugees; he says slamming the door in their faces would be a betrayal of our values. Its remarkable this president is lecturing us on humanitarianism. When did Obama began caring about Syrians? What if those 10,000 Syrian refugees were sent back in their native country to be gassed, barrel-bombed, shelled or shot? Would Obama consider them just part of the ever-growing casualty count?

True, Europe faces a migrant crisis, so tell Germanys foolhardy chancellor to stop encouraging migrants to pour in; enforce national boundaries; refuse to accept anyone not processed properly. The US has a migrant overflow at the border, we need not be bidding for Syrian refugees.

That we are discussing a Syrian refugee crisis at all is another symptom of Obamas abject foreign policy failures. So, please, Mr. President, spare us your sanctimony and condescension.

AS ZINGIRL INSIGHTFULLY POSTED: It wasnt an ideology that sprayed bullets into a Paris concert hall killing innocents. Nor was it an ideology that stormed the Beslan school and tortured small children for 3 days before ending in a gruesome bloody horror with 350 dead children. IT WAS ISLAM.

HE MUSLIM DOCTRINE OF TAQIYYA....ITS OKAY TO LIE TO AN INFIDEL....For those with a discerning eye, taqiyya is all around us. Muslim refugees have pretended to convert to Christianity; an Islamic gunman gained entrance inside a church by feigning interest in Christian prayers. Examples abound on a daily basis.

In Turkey, to get close enough to a Christian pastor to assassinate him, a group of Muslims — including three women — feigned interest in Christianity, attended his church for over a year, and even participated in baptism ceremonies.

Said the Christian pastor: These people had infiltrated our church and collected information about me, my family and the church and were preparing an attack against us. … Two of them attended our church for over a year and they were like family. It was all a huge pretense to kill the Christian pastor.

=======================================

DUPING THE POPE Pope Francis is urging refugees be taken in and aided.....the Pope took in a family of Muslim refugees into the Papal residence.....and spoke of his being transformed by them.

Little does he know.

Hate-filled Muslims are saving their most vicious attacks for the Pope: the plan is to hang him in public from the Papal balcony and turn the Vatican into a mosque.....which means destroying 2000 years of priceless works of art.

News reports say there are scores of Muslims surrounding the Vatican....lying-in-wait in Muslim prayer rooms.

Michael “Mr. Donut” Moore wants Obama to send all 10,000 Syrian “refugees” to live with him at his house. I say we take the loudmouth lardass up on his offer.

Hold them at some point offshore from the Continental United States. Vet them THERE, before any escape and disappear into the background.

I am still offering the suggestion, that the island of Moloka’i, in the Hawaii island chain, be used for the reception center. There was once a leper colony at Kalaupapa, a small unincorporated community, and sufficiently remote from the US mainland. Route the “refugees” there, and THEN attempt to vet the applicants.

And remind them, every day, that this was a leper colony.

Germany was the strongest European country in the world until September 2015 because of one woman who knelt at the altar of PCness. Not anymore. You can’t keep admitting infiltrators intent on taking over and changing your nation and retain your sovreignty and identity. History has shown us that time after time.

Is the Obama Administration Trafficking in Illegals or Refugees Through UPS Flights?
Freedom Outpost ^ | 11/20/2015 | Tim Brown ? FR Posted by conservativejoy

Is the Obama Administration Trafficking in Illegals and Refugees through UPS Flights who are then dumped on states by bus?

========================================

VIDEO In a video that appeared earlier this month, a man is claiming that he videoed several buses that are carrying people who were brought in from a United Parcel Service flight. He says he saw prior to filming which he described as people who came in on a UPS flight into Harrisburg International Airport. He also claims that it was supposed to be a parcel flight, and responds to someone in the vehicle with him that it is not soldiers as they are not brought home in this manner.

SURIANS DUMPED ON STATES Apparently there were up to 30 buses waiting to take these people to their destination to states, which was unknown. He identifies the bus as #245, but fails to identify the bus company. He also provides the license plate number, which sounds like J0191B.

We know that the Obama administration has already resettled many refugees in New Jersey, according to Chris Christie. The New Jersey Governor said that his administration was given absolutely no notice of the resettlement. "We have refugees in New Jersey we don't even know about," he said. Christie claimed that at least 75 Syrian refugees had been placed in the Garden State since the beginning of the year, but he was never advised by the administration, which is using local charity organizations to resettle them in the state.

While being unable to confirm everything about the above video, there is no reason to doubt the Obama administration is involved in this. The administration even paved the way for New Jersey to set up asylum for tens of thousands of Syrians.

We have previously reported on how one airline was illegally flying in plane loads of Muslims from the UK, and that seems to be backed up by Tennessee Rep. Rick Womick (R) who claims to have flown in five flights with illegal Somali immigrants on board from London to New York City.

BORDER DUMP The Obama administration also orchestrated the flood of people coming across the Southern Border in 2014. It was not accidental nor without knowledge, but purposeful. And, he even went further than that. In April 2015, the Obama administration wanted to actually fly in millions of illegal immigrant children into the US at tax payer expense. He later sought to do that with direct flights from Honduras to the US. Of course, they would not be vetted for those flights, unlike every American who boards flights here in the US, having their rights violated by the same government who is supposed to be protecting those rights.

At the root of the issue is what authority has been given to use tax money to pay for resettlement of these refugees. That really is the bottom line. Whether some are terrorists or not really gets down to the same argument we make with regards to guns. A criminal is going to find a way to do what he wants to do.

Americans should be demanding the paper trail which indicates the public treasury is being looted for these acts; the US government should not be usurping authority not given to it to do what is unlawful and presenting it as acts of charity.

The fact is the cultural divide is so severe, nothing —not acceptance-—not welfare benefits-—nothing will ever change them.

his head will be on a pike in the front yard within the day because Michael Moore is the perfect example of what a fat, loud-mouthed, obnoxious, atheist liberal American looks like and the Muslims wouldn't be able to stand him. Plus he looks just like a human pig.

CALL CONGRESS NOW: 202-224-3121

MESSAGE: We need to hear you loudly opposing bringing Syrian (and other) refugees into our communities.

Americans are through being suckers for foreigners who have no interest in contributing to our nation.

Besides killing us, their intent is to get-rich quich on our tax dollars....sucking off the backs of struggling taxpayers and gorge themselves at the welfare trough.

<><> Demand that Congress suspend all Refugee Resettlement Programs until the Government Accountability Office conducts an audit on the program's cost.

<><>Demand Congress cease tax dollar grants to states to resume refugee resettlement.

<><> Demand Congress throw out the Social Security "asylum" ripoff which enables refugees to pocket hefty monthly SS checks without having paid a dime into the system.
