That seems high, what was the total amount handed out each year?
Tell them to go ahead and cross the Mexican border just like everybody else.
Wonder how many cells Iran has here?
More recruits for “Obama’s Army”.
The standards themselves are pretty low: a high school education OR employment in two out of the last five years. The high school education can be by third world standards which, admittedly, might be just as good as some places in the USA. The work experience can include anything from rag picking in Timbuktu to prison guard in Tehran.
The most stupid of all is that all eligible entrants are thrown into a single pot for random drawing. So, naturally, the overwhelming number of entrants are marginal candidates from eligible third world countries.
More DNC "gifts" against America which
should not be forgotten.
Would that be 4453 muzzies??
I’m sure the Iranian gov. will be happy to choose the folks to fill these spots, complete with documents and books on “How to construct a bomb”.
Iran is proud of the fact that their Al Quds force consists exclusively of soldiers who required at least two years of training before rising to their job destabilizing the West and our allies. I wonder if State is subsidizing their travel costs to get here too.
I’m sure they’re all Zoroastrians...
Some of those Iranians will no doubt be thanking God for their deliverance from the prison state of Iran, but mixed in among them will be terrorists who can’t wait to get to the U.S. and start planning attacks on us.
The State Department’s loyalty to the U.S. is high questionable in my judgment. They’ve long perceived that their job is to explain other nations to the U.S., rather than explain the U.S. to other nations.
Throw in the Baha’i, Christians, and the 4 remaining Jews, and I’d be OK with that.
This is simply insane. The "State Sponsors of Terror," will make sure the people they allow to come "meet" our requirements, but you can be sure they are sleeper cell types and to consider anything else is not only wrecklessly blind, it borders on treason IMHO.
STATE DEPARTMENT ISSUES ANNUAL "DIVERSITY VISAS" TO TERRORIST COUNTRIES
For the record, individuals submit the applications, not the governments and the winners are chosen at random. However, when you accept applications from countries filled with anti-American zealots, it should be no surprise when most of the winners are also anti-American zealots.
Tag ‘em and track ‘em
We should be so lucky to get no muzzies. However, I’m sure they’ll make up 98% of the visas.
George Schultz, Reagan's Secretary of State, was one of the few exceptions to this rule.
New recruits were asked to report to the chief for a brief exchange before they reported to their first foreign posting. Schultz had a globe on his desk and asked them to point to the country which they would be representing. Inevitably, the new recruit would point to their assigned post.
Schultz would rise from his desk, stick his finger on the United States and shout "No! Dammit! That is where you will be posted! This is the country you will be representing! Don't you ever forget it!"
last year, ..the State Department awarded 2,427 Diversity Visas to people from Iran, Syria and Sudan — 1,842 for Iran; 553 for Sudan; and 32 for Syria
