Excerpts... America’s newest Muslims arrive in the afternoon crunch at John F. Kennedy International Airport. Their planes land from Dubai, Casablanca and Karachi. They stand in line, clasping documents. They emerge, sometimes hours later, steering their carts toward a flock of relatives,... This was the path for Nur Fatima, a Pakistani woman who moved to Brooklyn six months ago and promptly shed her hijab. Through the same doors walked Nora Elhainy,....Ahmed Youssef, an Egyptian who settled in Jersey City, where he gives the call to prayer at a palatial mosque. “I got freedom in this country,” said Ms. Fatima, 25. “Freedom of everything. Freedom of thought.” .... The events of Sept. 11 transformed life for Muslims in the United States, and the flow of immigrants from countries like Egypt, Pakistan and Morocco thinned sharply. But five years later, as the United States wrestles with questions of terrorism, civil liberties and immigration control, Muslims appear to be moving here again in surprising numbers, according to statistics collected by the Department of Homeland Security and the Census Bureau.... ...In 2005, more people from Muslim countries became legal permanent United States residents — nearly 96,000 — than in any year in the previous two decades. More than 40,000 of them were admitted last year, the highest annual number since the terrorist attacks, according to data on 22 countries provided by the Department of Homeland Security. Many have made the journey unbowed by tales of immigrant hardship, and despite their own opposition to American policy in the Middle East... they still come here because the United States offers what they’re missing at home.” ........

And it should continue in earnest if they are here illegally, they need to go back. If they are in prison, they also need to go back. Deporting middle eastern illegals first is a good way to start enforcing current immigration law.
"The other important component is that we should be seeking who gains entry into our country...not letting them get into a queue...or even sneaking over the southern border. Good post."
Again, 100% agreement. Thanks.
Thanks very much for this information. I had not ever seen it before.
A trusted, and well informed freeper sent me this information regarding the al Fuqra group you cited. Thought you'd be interested. The freeper complimented you on your knowledge of this group. Thought you'd like to know...

Not a single one of these Muslim skunks should be allowed into this country. I don't trust any of them.
Tell the well-informed freeper that you spoke of "thank you" for the compliment. :-), but I don't have that much knowledge - only what I've heard and the few things I've seen and looked up on the internet about them. I am just floored that, at least on the surface, it seems that people are asleep on this issue. I don't believe our government is asleep, I believe they are - at least, I hope they are - in the background following up on all these groups. I am on several other forums where some people are in such total denial that anything sinister is going on. I think it is terribly naive to think that way. Oh, and thank you for the link. I will definitely take a look at it.
Why the f**k are we allowing this? They blow up the WTC and we reward them with increasing their numbers here. Bush is the blame, for his absolutely disgusting new arrangement with King Abdullah to bring in 75,000 NEW Saudi visa-holders. I am so sick of this Arab ass-kissing Bush clan.
Isn't that nice that they love this country so much that they immigrate here! I feel so proud don't you? Good grief!!!!
This is absolute insanity. The sooner our leaders start GETTING IT, the more likely it is we will have an America at all.
Because love means never having to say you're sorry.

Germany, Spain, and The Netherlands could tell us some horror stories as well. Except that Germany has become so spineless they free terrorists to exchange them for German citizens.
You're welcome and I'll pass the comment along. Freeper informs me that more info is available if you desire.
Unbelievable, isn't it?
And we are bringing in the suicidal. Their religion is a freak show and their lives aren't much better. I wonder how many come over here believing they are the seeds of the apocalypse.
Bttt!
We have been told that the Constitution is not a suicide pact. As many of them continue to enter the country, I am beginning to wonder if that is true or not. The barbarians are at the gate and the gate is wide open.
