If We Dont Let Muslims into America, Theyll Kill Us Our immigration policy should not be a hostage crisis. February 1, 2017 Daniel Greenfield
Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is a New York writer focusing on radical Islam
Trump's executive order is "going to get Americans killed," Senator Murphy declared.
The Connecticut Democrat was joining a chorus of the clueless warning us that if we dont let Muslims into America, theyll join ISIS and kill us.
Singing their brains out in the same stupid chorus were Senator McCain and Senator Graham (a self-inflicted wound in the fight against terrorism), Senator Ben Sasse (the terrorist recruiters win by telling kids that America is banning Muslims) and Senator Heitkamp (confirms the lie terrorists tell their recruits: that America is waging a war on Islam.)
Senator Cardin went one better by whining that keeping potential Islamic terrorists out, promises to make the U.S. less safe and places our courageous servicemen and women in even greater danger as they fight against terrorism. Just tell it to the Marines shot and killed by a Muslim immigrant at a Chattanooga recruiting station and Naval reserve center.
Theres only one problem with this hostage crisis theory of immigration. Its insane.
If theyll go off and join ISIS if we dont let them in, what happens when we do let them in?
Why would we want to take in people who express their disagreement with our politics by shooting up a gay nightclub or a social service center that helps the developmentally disabled?
When normal people dont like a policy, they protest or write a letter to the editor. They dont plant a pressure cooker bomb next to a little boy or stab college students with a butcher knife.
Let us in or well kill you is the least compelling immigration argument ever.
We have our current wave of terror despite legalizing some 100,000 Muslims a year. If we dont manage 100,000 this year, they are saying that maybe more of the 100,000 from a few years ago will join ISIS and start killing us. And if we dont legalize 100,000 five years from now, the 100,000 coming into the country this year will become the terrorists of tomorrow.
Thats not an immigration policy. Its a hostage crisis.
But lets take one big step back.
ISIS recruitment has nothing to do with our immigration policy. Unless the worlds greatest ISIS recruiter was Obama.
ISIS had zero recruitment problems under Obama. There was no shortage of Muslims lining up to run over, rape, behead, bomb and mutilate non-Muslims even when his refugee policies bent over backward to favor Muslims. Instead thats when lone wolf terrorism by ISIS supporters, some of whom had come here as first or generation refugees, took off.
At the height of Obamas pro-Islamist policy, ISIS was picking up 2,000 new recruits a month. Even as he rolled out a plan to fight ISIS with aggressive tweeting, the Islamic State gained tens of thousands of recruits. There were investigations of ISIS sympathizers in every state and hundreds of Muslim settlers in America had traveled to join ISIS. Others carried out terror attacks here.
Since none of this could be Obamas fault, the media took to blaming random people who might make Muslims hate us. A guy who posted a YouTube video was blamed for a Muslim terror assault on our diplomatic compound in Benghazi. Hillary Clinton saw to it that he went to jail. A pastor who planned to burn the Koran got a phone call from the commander of United States Central Command. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer suggested that burning the Koran might not be protected by the Constitution. Assistant Attorney General Thomas Perez refused to rule out blasphemy laws.
None of this shameless unconstitutional pandering to terrorists stopped or even slowed down the tide of Muslim terror attacks. No ISIS recruit lifted a sword and then refused to behead a crying Kurdish teenager because Obama offered Muslims an incredibly generous refugee policy.
Instead Islamic terror got worse.
The same was true in Europe. ISIS had no difficulty finding recruits despite the generous migration policies of the European Union. Germany opened the doors to Muslims and suffered a series of devastating Islamic terrorist attacks. After a million refugees, ISIS still had no trouble finding recruits. Some of these recruits were the very refugees Germany had taken in.
Islamic migration didnt make Germany any safer. It didnt prevent ISIS from finding recruits. Instead opening the borders filled Germany with potential ISIS recruits.
Just as taking in large numbers of Muslims filled our country with potential ISIS recruits.
ISIS recruitment numbers fell for reasons having nothing to do with our immigration policy. Muslims stopped joining the Islamic State because it was losing.
Islam only cares about winning. Either youre killing non-Muslims. Or youre a loser. Muslim martyrs dont die for their beliefs. They die while killing others for their beliefs.
If we really want to cut down on ISIS recruitment, the best way to do that is by beating Islamic terrorists. Leftists argued that our presence in Iraq was feeding Al Qaeda recruitment. So Obama pulled out. And Al Qaeda in Iraq turned into the Islamic State and became its own country. It went from a small group of terrorists to fielding an entire army. Obamas pullout from Iraq allowed ISIS recruiters to build a country and an army.
Appeasing Islamic terrorists doesnt work. It has never worked. And it will never work.
Closing the door on Muslim terrorists doesnt endanger us. Opening the door does. Closing the door on terrorists wont get Americans killed. Opening the door has gotten Americans killed.
When we are told that limiting Islamic immigration will make Muslims more likely to kill us, we are letting Islamic terrorists take our immigration policy hostage. Islamic immigration is the gun held to our heads and the demand enforced by that gun. The more migrants we let in, the bigger and deadlier the gun becomes. Its time to end this immigration hostage crisis.
If keeping Muslim migrants out of America will make them kill us, why would we let them in?
It appears only you and I actually read the entire piece.
Greenfield is not an idiot. I suggest you read the article carefully. I predict you will come around.
Greenfield: If We Dont Let Muslims into America, Theyll Kill Us
..........
As if some of the ones already let in this country already aren’t planning to do. This guy is a first class idiot. The more Americans earnestly pray for transparency and truth the more God reveals. And lately we have become privy to an enormous amount of skullduggery. Keep praying America for God’s Will and God’s Way.
...and it’s quite obvious that none of you frigging idiots read the actual article.
We need send them Rick Perry, and cancel his capitulation.
[[I wonder if he practices being stupid.]]
He doesn’t have to practice at it, he’s an expert at being stupid.
We let the 9/11 terrorists into the country, and look what happened. Greenfield is a moron.
WE LET THEM IN BEFORE 9/11 YOU FOOL!!!!! We will NEVER forget I guess has been forgotten!!!!! I guess it is going to take ANOTHER 9/11 to SHUT THESE IDIOTS UP!!! It will be a terrible shame that MORE Americans will have to lose their lives before these communist marxists are SHUT DOWN completely!!!! I can ONLY HOPE and PRAY that their family members are the ones KILLED in mass numbers!!! San Francisco would be a GREAT TARGET!!!!
Self defense is legal here, we’ll just have to kill them before they kill us.
Read the rest of the posts!!!!!!!!!!!! Try #9 and #10 for starters!!!!!
...as soon as I read the headline I knew Greenfield was showing how stupid some people are....and sure enough, the usual suspects.
Post in haste,repent in leisure.
.
Oops, I guess I made the same mistake a lot of others did. My bad.
He is a first class idiot for the title of his article. Many wouldn’t read it . . only the headline.
READ THE ARTICLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.
Yeah, my “leisure” was a full 2 minutes...Read the other posts I made...
If the civilized world is to survive, Islam must be understood for what it really is: Its not a religion, form of government, or anything recognizable to the civilized mind. Islam is a disease, an incurable disease of the mind that is highly contagious among the feeble minded and is now spreading among the worlds feeble minded at an epidemic rate. As with any disease, one cant reason with this disease, negotiate with it, or treat in a manner other than how one would treat any other incurable disease.
As past efforts to contain this disease have failed, carriers of this Plague of Islam must be eradicated wherever they're found, for if they're not, this disease could eventually end not just Western Civilization, but it could undo over 5,000 years of human civilization.
I thought terrorism had NOTHING to do with Islam
I meant they were pro conservative....
I’ve had to “repent” often myself-———one FReeper once said that posting without reading the entire article is a long FR tradition. :-)
