Syrian passport at Paris attack scene belonged to asylum seeker: Greek minister

Athens (AFP) - A Syrian passport found by police at the scene of the mass shooting in a Paris concert hall belonged to an asylum seeker who registered on a Greek island in October, a Greek minister said Saturday.

"We confirm that the Syrian passport holder came through the Greek island of Leros on October 3 where he was registered under EU rules," said a statement issued by Nikos Toskas, the minister for citizen protection.

French police said the document was found "near the body of one of the attackers" in the investigation into the main attack of Friday's carnage, at the Bataclan concert hall, where 82 people were killed.

The authenticity of the passport was being checked, but its discovery indicates a possible Syrian connection which has been a working hypothesis for investigators after assailants hit six separate locations in Paris.

European security officials had long feared that jihadists could take advantage of the mass migration influx, mainly from war-torn Syria, that Europe has been experiencing since the beginning of the year.

"If this is established, it would be the first such case. In any event, this proves that the unchecked flow poses an unequalled challenge for European security. We simply don't know who is coming through," the expert added..............Makes you feel secured here in the US

Passport?

Nobody brings ID on this kind of job.

Confirmed by French prosecutor. Cars used registered in Belgium, a few of the attackers from there too.

And then again, they may have purposely left the passport to help the people making the investigation a clear message of who they were, and why they were there.

The Left is already trying to claim the passport is a false flag.

Would they care about OpSec if the intent was to end up martyring themselves?

"Somebody better inform Obama"

Obama tried Fast & Furious to gin up an excuse to disarm Americans because of the availability of guns. He's trying again, this time by importing hideously violent Islamists. They will quickly gain access to firearms, commit any number of massacres, and Obama and the liberals will point to the availability of firearms as an excuse to stop the sale of firearms and as an excuse to confiscate them.

When you see the passport was found, ya know something's up.

And the "passport" is nearly always found in these things.

I would suspect that it’s a fake ID/passport....there’s been a lot of talk about this increasing.

If they wanted people to know who they were, from where they came, and to be afraid this could be repeated, they would.

The message is— I came in with the Syrian refugees, of which the numbers are legion. We are arriving in your cities. Think you are safe now?

INFORM OBAMA? WHY?

He already said ISIS is contained, but then he does live in his own private ‘Fairy Tale’ world...with many, many armed guards watching over him...

WE NEED TO INFORM AMERICAN’S ...TO BE PREPARED AND READY WHEN THEY COME HERE...
