BREAKING: Despite Terrorism Concerns, U.S. to Accept 10,000 Syrian Refugees
Townhall ^ | 9/10/2015 | Katie Pavlich

Posted on 09/10/2015 11:56:34 AM PDT by conservativejoy

In an announcement made Thursday afternoon, the White House confirmed plans to bring 10,000 Syrian refugees to the United States. There is no word yet on what the vetting process will be for refugees or how the White House plans to assure Americans the process will prevent ISIS terrorists from making their way into the United States.

"The United States, at the direction of the United States, has played a leading role in addressing the dire humanitarian crisis in the Middle East and North Africa," White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said Thursday during the daily briefing. "One thing that the United States can do is to begin to let more Syrian refugees into the United States. This year, this fiscal year that will end this month, the United States is on track to take in about 1500 Syrian refugees. The president has directed his team to scale up that number next year and he's informed his team he would like them to accept, at least make preparations, for 10,000 refugees."

Earlier this week, House Homeland Security Chairman Michael McCaul expressed serious concern about national security and the acceptance of refugees from Syria.

“We’re a compassionate nation and this is a tragic situation but I also have to be concerned as Chairman of Homeland Security about the safety of Americans in this country and the concern that I have and that the FBI testified to is that we don’t really have the proper databases on these individuals to vet them passed and to assure we’re not allowing terrorists to come into this country and until I have that assurance, I cannot support a program that could potentially bring jihadists into the United States,” McCaul said in an interview with Fox News. “We don’t know who these people are and I think that’s the bottom line here and until we know who they are, we cannot responsibly bring them into the United States.”

"Both the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI have told me privately that they don't support bringing in Syrian refugees because of the threat they pose to Americans," McCaul continued.

Details about the importation process for refugees have not been released. When they are, we'll be sure to bring them to you.

Yea. I expect that Syria will send only their best and brightest...terrorists.

I can see the selection process being just like the Harvey Korman scene in Blazing Saddles:

Achmed! Your qualifications?

Murder! Rape! Beheading! Rape!

Wait. You said Rape twice.

I like Rape!

Good! Good! You’ll be perfect!

They’re not coming for jobs. They’re coming for foodstamps and welfare. Otherwise known as Jizya.

My God, this POS really wants to get us killed, doesn’t he?

Given the goal of ISIS to infiltrate refugee groups with at least 10% trained terrorists, he stands a good chance of getting that done.

Boston’s mayor already said Boston wants them. Those other 2 Muslim refugees worked out so well for us at the marathon!

And if the killing begins .... Does anyone think this lunatic president would do a thing about it? He won’t even mention the Americans being killed by illegals, or police officers they’re offing.

We’re a country full of complete idiots for not impeaching and jailing this basturd.

Perfect timing on your post. For anyone interested, here is an option: “Aid to the Church in Need”

“Patriarch pleads for halt to ‘tsunami’ of youth emigration from Syria”
Wednesday, September 2, 2015

“Despite all your suffering, stay! Be patient! Don’t emigrate! Stay for the Church, your homeland, for Syria and its future! Stay! Do stay!”

“ACN stays course helping Christians stay put in Syria”

Have given some dollars myself and our teen leadership team at the Parish are looking at doing a fundraiser.

The Saudis won’t take them, but will build them mosques.
“Mosques”=ROP recruitment, agitprop, armories and Command & Control Centers.
The federal government and Uniparty are waging war on the American people.

The Iran deal is about as much a DEAL for America as receiving 10,000 probable terrorists.

0bamandingo is an agent of the Islamists. Not so secret anymore. WAKE THE F UP, AMERICA.

THIS 'MAN' MUST BE STOPPED BY CONGRESS!!!!

“They’re coming for foodstamps and welfare.”

Wherever you find muslims, the “infidels” are taxed.
Go Trump, Cruz. Impeach Obama. Remove Boehner.

I guess Boston, being so Progressive and diverse and all, wants the terrorist’s to know there are no hard feelings.

Probably need to remove all the pressure cookers from the Home Depots though. Just in case.

For every 100 Muslims you let in, America will need 4 additional FBI
agents, 10 more Police and 10 more Welfare workers to handle welfare
and food stamp requests.
