Syrian Migrant Among Paris Bombers

PARIS—One of the assailants in Friday’s deadly attacks in and near the French capital recently entered Europe as a Syrian migrant, people familiar with the matter said, exposing gaps in the continent’s security as it copes with the biggest refugee crisis in decades.

French investigators were able to match the remains of one of the suicide bombers who attacked France’s main stadium to a Syrian passport that was used to enter Europe’s free-travel area and apply for asylum, the people familiar with the matter said.

European security officials have worried that Islamic State operatives would bring terror by mixing with the cohort of Iraqi and Syrian migrants who are fleeing war each week.

Screening migrants represents a formidable security challenge at a time when European intelligence agencies are straining to keep track of thousands of their own nationals who have rallied to Islamic State, officials say.

France, which blamed the Sunni insurgency for Friday’s attacks, faces an especially difficult task because its security services have been suffering from what they describe as a relative blindness in the region since Paris stopped cooperating with the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

“This is what we had feared,” a senior French official said.

And of course, as this is going on Obama wants to welcome them here- as in today. As in yesterday if possible. I WILL give Trump credit for this. I saw he said something about Obama should reconsider this. Of course, we know he likely won't.

Homegrown or “refugee” what is the difference? The only way to prevent these attacks is keep them off your soil. There are few leaders in the West that seem to get it.

Little doubt immigration is now the biggest issue for upcoming elections in the U.S. and Europe. I don’t see how Europe can close the barn door now.

It should not be a surprise that recent “refugees” where involved in the shooting/bombing.

Thousands of Muslim migrants ‘disappear’ from camps

If they wanted to really find the missing “refugees” all they need to do is go to the mosques. That is where they vanish to . They go there to get their money , weapons and instructions for their hits .

Yet Obama just imported 10,000 potential Syrian terrorists yesterday.

Paul Ryan: Where are the impeachment indictments legislation anyway?

Something will have to be done sooner rather than later. Before the number of outsiders gets too equal. Wake up call.

When I went to Warsaw I realized you’d never see an attack there because Arabs would stick out like sore thumbs over there. In Paris, they can blend in easily.

Well, over the years, from what little I have read, the French welcomed or at least tolerated their being in their Country. Now when muslims act like muslims[ kill people and blow things up] they get upset. Get ready to read and hear a lot of tough talk from the authorities. But do not expect much, if any, actions during the following weeks and months.

But before anyone criticizes the French, it is only a matter of time before what is happening in France begins to happen over here. Unlike in France, they did not come over here, they were brought here by various church groups with the blessings of both political Parties. And muslims being muslims, sooner or later, they will begin doing what muslims do. Which is killing people and blowing things up.
