Ted Cruz Facebook graphic compares Syrian refugees to Trojan Horse
Red Alert Politics ^ | November 17, 2015 | Rebecca Downs

Ted Cruz's strong views on Syrian refugees are far from secret. He has warned that members of ISIS could enter the United Sates posing as refugees. And, on Monday night his Facebook page featured a post with a Trojan Horse.

Radical Islamic terrorists could secretly sneak into America posing as Syrian Refugees!

Posted by Ted Cruz on Monday, November 16, 2015

The Trojan Horse was used by the Greeks to beat the Trojans during the Trojan War. While the Trojans thought the horse was a peace offering for their victory, it actually contained Greek fighters hiding inside of it and enabled Greece to win the war. The analogy to today's situation is an obvious and frightening one.

The post doesn't merely point out the similarities, but also is a warning for Obama as it says "No Syrian Refugees in America."

The link, brings users to where they can enter in their information. The page reads "Tell President Obama That Syrian Refugees Infiltrated By ISIS Don't Belong in America."

Trump made this comment over a month ago.

Too little, too late.

Trump has been on the Syrian migration/Trojan Horse analogy for weeks.

Interesting. Looks like it might make a good end-run around the media’s spin.

American citizens should be familiar by now with the "Trojan Horse" analogy!

After all, Democrats imposed their disastrous, oppressive, coercive "progressive" will on citizens disguised within just such a "Horse" named the "Affordable Care Act."

Cruz’s team finally finished their focus groups and discovered that Trump-lines work best, so now he’s using them.

Outreach to the typical Facebook user is a good idea.

CRUZ has always been a step ahead of Trump. Here’s the proof. Donald has evolved on this issue BTW, Cruz has not.

You are not able to focus are you? My statement was on the Trojan horse, nothing else, I like both, Cruz is my #2 pick.

The point being, Cruz was warning about this before Trump, I could care less about a single comment...Cruz has been leading and putting actual teeth into refusing the refugee’s. Trump and his followers are now lying about it.

The Trump supporters look mighty small trying to dog on Ted Cruz where as he is trying to actually do something about the terrorist in passing lesgistlation in Congress to protect American lives that they continue to yap about.

Disingenuous much ?

Nice try to blame someone for being not focused when your game was to spin something that has direct ties to terrorist.

It’s called : redirecting ploy, but in your case someone has called you on your disingenuous BS..
