No I can’t. But a policy change from our current pro-Democrat one of unending mass immigration towards one of low-moderate immigration would allow more scrutiny of all legal entrants. It would hopefully allow someone like Atta to be screened out, and would hopefully disallow student visas from most Muslim nations.

Conservative immigration reform would also abolish the absurd Diversity Visa Lottery and end extended family chain migration. Together with allowing fewer refugees, these changes would likely cut off most Muslim immigration. It would definitely slow it down, and reverse the insane upwards trend of Muslim immigration since 9-11

Do you disagree that ending mass immigration and reducing the numbers we allow in from all the various channels would result in fewer terrorists being admitted? Or that it would allow greater scrutiny of the lower numbers we do allow in?

RE: t would hopefully allow someone like Atta to be screened out, and would hopefully disallow student visas from most Muslim nations.

The words “hopefully” is speculative. We cannot at this point in time, discern what would and would not have happened or whether or not someone like Muhammad Atta would or would not have legally ( because that is what he did ) arrived in the USA.

All these talk about “chain migration” is beside the point as it had nothing to do with Muhammad Atta and his ilk. He was not here as a migrant.

My main interest is this — let’s say we have a President Buchanan in 2001, what would he have done in 9/11 occurred?

Would he have gone to Afghanistan?

If not, what does he propose to do?
