Congressman slams Obama's Syrian refugee program; calls plan 'very dangerous' for America
WND ^ | 6/16/2015 | Leo Hohmann

A Texas congressman who chairs the House Homeland Security Committee is calling on President Obama to abandon his plan to resettle thousands of Syrians displaced by that country’s civil war, saying the plan is “very dangerous” for America’s security.

The problem is that ISIS has already said it will infiltrate the ranks of the refugees being sent by the United Nations to various Western countries, said Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas.

McCaul wrote a letter to President Obama Thursday expressing concerns over the administration’s announced plans to resettle some 2,000 Syrian refugees in the United States this year. Another 10,000 to 11,000 are in the U.N. pipeline destined for America.

Syrian refugees by the numbers

The totals of Syrian refugees resettled in the U.S. each year since 2012 are as follows:

2012: 41

2013: 45

2014: 249

2015: 587 (in less than six months)

The states that received more than 10 Syrians to date since 2012, according to the State Department, are as follows:

Arizona, 64

California, 119

Florida, 46

Georgia, 19

Idaho, 19

North Carolina, 37

Ohio, 27

Pennsylvania, 54

Tennessee, 21

Texas, 114

Utah, 12

Virginia, 18

Washington, 22

The religious affiliations of the 922 Syrians resettled in the United States since Jan. 1, 2012, are as follows:

Sunni Muslims: 798

Muslims (not identified as Sunni or Shiite): 49

Shiite Muslims: 8

Protestant Christians: 42

Orthodox Christians: 3

Roman Catholic: 1

Yazidi: 1

The total number of Muslims, 855, accounts for 93 percent of the overall total of refugees coming from Syria.

This isn't about refugees.

This is about deliberately causing chaos, and using the "divide and conquer" strategy to implement globalism.

This Congressman should be filing articles of impeachment over this, not sending some whiney letter to the Marxist, Muslim, Mau Mau, foreign exchange student from Kenya) who presently squats in the now disgraced White Hovel.

What right does the UN have to decide what “refugees” will be accepted or not by the USA? NWO in blatant colors! People should scream about AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY.

They are going to ubiquitously distribute these terrorists against humanity in this country to cause the most damage. You might as well go around planting claymores in every bush and hedge in the country.

You are correct. Obama is importing terrorists and causing chaos as fast as he can. He and his fellow travelers have no problem will a few broken eggs to remake the US as they see fit.
