U.S. Visa Process Missed San Bernardino Wife’s Zealotry on Social Media

New York Times ^

Tashfeen Malik, who with her husband carried out the massacre in San Bernardino, Calif., passed three background checks by American immigration officials as she moved to the United States from Pakistan. None uncovered what Ms. Malik had made little effort to hide — that she talked openly on social media about her views on violent jihad.

She said she supported it. And she said she wanted to be a part of it.

American law enforcement officials said they recently discovered those old — and previously unreported — postings as they pieced together the lives of Ms. Malik and her husband, Syed Rizwan Farook, trying to understand how they pulled off the deadliest terrorist attack on American soil since Sept. 11, 2001.

The last paragraph says it all for me "In Pakistan — as in the United States — there is no shortage of crass and inflammatory language. And it is often difficult to distinguish Islamist sentiments and those driven by political hostility toward the United States. At the time Fehda Malik’s comment was posted, anti-American sentiment in Pakistan was particularly high; four months earlier, American commandos had secretly entered Pakistan and killed Osama bin Laden."

There is no vetting process. It is simply paper work. No different than any other bureaucratic government program. If you check the right boxes and have a pulse they pass you through.

[Buckeye McFrog]

You’ve got a relatively small number of typical schmuck bureaucrat employees, perpetually stuck in third-gear, facing a literal avalanche of visa applications. We’re sitting ducks.

[Sacajaweau]

I think they even ask if you’ve been involved with terrorists...or something similar.

“anti-American sentiment in Pakistan was particularly high”

So why are they coming to America?

[ridesthemiles]

Did this terrorist also collect various benefits since she didn’t work & she had a kid? She wasn’t using her ‘husbands’ name.

The Department Of Islamic Security did Obama’s bidding

[CodeToad]

Missed?? They never looked. She was never vetted in any way, shape, or form. Even her name was bogus.

[Cementjungle]

They didn’t miss it. It got her instant approval.

Because we give them tens of thousands in aid every year in the form of social welfare benefits and they can lay about and spout off their anti-american bull crap in luxury waiting around fort heir ISIS orders to shoot up the local mall or grade school.

“I think they even ask if you’ve been involved with terrorists...or something similar.’

They ask that. The “journalist” should have asked the State Dept representative in the interview if anyone had ever checked the “yes” box.

[AFret.]

There is no vetting process. It is simply paper work.

Exactly right...we are importing our own demise.

That is true but why do we continue on this path? Even when they become citizens and vote democrat is the carnage worth it? I don’t get it? What is the end game? Not just the U.S. but all the Western countries.

They didn’t miss it. They never looked. DHS prohibits checking social media as a violation of terrorist’s privacy.

[beekay]

Where and who is the third shooter?

[Jim from C-Town]

For the Democrats it is worth it. They don’t understand religion and belief systems as they are mostly agnostic and atheists. Yes,almost all, they are about Earthly pleasures and nothing else.

They believe that they can kowtow Islamists like they do Christians. They don’t understand that Christians are compliant cheek turners. Islamists are head hackers.

[drypowder]

maybe the reason the FBI and DHS missed these terrorists activities on the web was because they were too focused on monitoring the US patriot and Christian websites. After all, this regime believes and has stated that US patriots and Christians are America’s real terrorist concern.

[Adder]

To make their mark and leave a few stains on the country they hate.

And our “leaders” can’t wait to let them in...fundamental transformation, doncha know.

[riri]

ha. I guess I am never immigrating anywhere. Ah, maybe Hungary, Russia or the Czech Republic will take me.

[Mastador1]

Missed it? I doubt it! I’m sure that the hand of obama and his puppet master jarret are all over the policies to insure that these zealots are given a free pass.
