This factoid was included on the thread:

"50,000 Iranians, alone, come here each year on student visas, visits, etc. Some Arabic countries send over 100,000 people to the US. There is no tracking system as to where they go, when and if they leave, etc. Anyone who wants can come to this country. There's no follow up to make sure people leave."

Muslim Mob 'Terrorizes' Children in Indonesian Sunday School

(CNSNews.com) - Approximately 30 Christian children fled in panic after a mob of Islamic militants raided and vandalized their Sunday school class, which was being held in a private home last weekend in Curug, Indonesia, according to a Christian group called Voice of the Martyrs (VOM).

The violence came less than a month after three teenaged Christian schoolgirls were attacked and beheaded as they walked through a cocoa plantation on their way to school. One girl's severed head was reportedly placed in front of a church, eight miles from where the bodies were found, in what locals viewed as a stark warning to Christians.

VOM reported that in the most recent incident, the mob "terrorized" the children at the Curug Sunday school class and destroyed several desks and chairs, guitars, a keyboard, organ and fan in the classroom. Voice of the Martyrs is a Christian organization that documents persecution of believers.

The children began to flee in panic, according to VOM, after which the mob then allegedly evicted the remaining adults and children from the home "by force" and "sealed" it by plastering posters denouncing the school over the doors of the building.

Glen Penner, spokesman for VOM, forwarded a detailed message he received about the incident to the Cybercast News Service

The email quoted Peter Mendrofa, one of the Sunday school teachers as saying, "That incident was so quick. ... Some of them asked us to stop our Christian activities there while the rest were destroying our inventory inside the house."

Anton Neta, one of the Sunday school workers, said a few months ago that the Christian group signed an agreement with "local inhabitants" promising the house "would be emptied on January 1st 2006."

Neta said that despite the agreement the mob went ahead and raided the house anyway.....
