And I thought the govt turning a blind eye at the open borders was bad, now this.

The GAO said the State Department expressed disappointment with the report's findings and rejected recommendations that the department compile more comprehensive data on fraud activity and formulate a new strategy for combating it.

Either idiots, traitors, or both.

"We found no documented evidence of ... immigrants from state sponsors of terrorism committing any terrorist acts.."

It takes a while for them to ripen. Blind devotion to the false ideal of diversity at its finest.

From 2000 to 2006, the program allowed 3,703 people from Sudan, 3,164 from Iran, 2,763 from Cuba and 162 from Syria to enter the United States and apply for permanent legal resident status, the report said. That totals 9,792 new immigrants.

They should be more concerned about the OTMs (Other Than Mexicans) who have filtered in across the border with the unabated flood of illegals. Those account for ??? [unknown] numbers, and they don't know what those OTMs might have brought in with them, in the way of diseases or weaponry, etc.

The state department needs a giant flush, and has for decades.

"...some individuals including terrorists and criminals could use fraudulent means to enter or remain in the United States."

And the Bush State Department is pushing to allow 7,000, revised to 25,000, possibly revised to 100,000 displaced Iraqis to get special sanctuary into the USA, too.

We really don’t know much about these people from this article. It’s entirely plausible that most, perhaps an overwhelming majority, of them are just ordinary subjects of these terrorist governments trying to escape terror, fear, and persecution. Most ordinary people in these countries aren’t among the terrorist goon squads who rule through fear.

On the other hand...

Lady Margaret Thatcher
Culture, et cetera
THE WASHINGTON TIMES, June 22, 1999
Soviet America

“Britain and America are two of the most tolerant societies in history, having demonstrated that tolerance by welcoming refugees and immigrants from all parts of the world and then turning them into British and American citizens by inducting them into the national community. These immigrants learned our language and adopted our history as their own. Such cultural inclusion is, in fact, the only way to achieve a successful multi-ethnic society. . .

“The concept of multiculturalism threatens to unravel all that good work. Here is a genuinely utopian enterprise, more utopian indeed than the Tower of Babel. . . . The U.S. is moving toward a system in which the government presides over a number of different social groups, some of which have their own language and type of education. This approach undermines social unity and allows construction of a multicultural society, which is the very opposite of America’s previous practice. The government aims to supervise these different groups and keep the peace by redistributing income from one to another.

“Thus the utopia of multiculturalism involves a bureaucratic class presiding over a nation divided into a variety of ethnic nationalities. That, of course, looks awfully like the old Soviet Union. Such a system cannot work, and its failure is likely to inflict great damage on the people, their traditions, and their liberties.”

— Lady Margaret Thatcher, former British prime minister, writing on “Resisting the Utopian Impulse” in the spring issue of American Outlook
