A proposal to admit 10,000 Syrian refugees to the United States has ignited a bitter debate in Washington, but more than 10 times that number of people from the embattled country have quietly come to America since 2012, according to figures obtained by FoxNews.com.
Some 102,313 Syrians were granted admission to the U.S. as legal permanent residents or through programs including work, study and tourist visas from 2012 through August of this year, a period which roughly coincides with the devastating civil war that still engulfs the Middle Eastern country. Experts say any fears that terrorists might infiltrate the proposed wave of refugees from United Nations-run camps should be dwarfed by the potential danger already here.
âThe sheer number of people arriving on all kinds of visas and with green cards, and possibly U.S. citizenship, makes it impossible for our counterterrorism authorities to keep track of them all, much less prevent them from carrying out attacks or belatedly try to deport them,â said Jessica Vaughan of the Center for Immigration Studies.

This is damned criminal, to open the floodgates to refugees from this country.
Do all of our supposedly elected officials forget that Syria was aiding and supplying insurgents in Iraq with weaponry that resulted in the death of hundreds of American servicemen?
Do they remember that? Because I sure as hell do, and this makes me hopping mad.
Insanity. This is pure, criminal insanity.
I heard that it started with Johnson, slashing the number of Europeans allowed to come in favor of other groups.
Now we have 100,000 potential terrorist (women and children included) that have come from Syria in three years?
they wanted to try Bush for war crimes.
When is obama going to be tried for treason?
And the congress?
Anyone remember how the French handled their revolution.
The guard stepped out of the way.
Obama is determined to flood us with muslims and dem voters.
============================================
Obama demands compassion for Syrians....but his Heart of Gold has a more lucrative tinge. Sucking up to refugees is a Gimme-The-Money scheme. Every sentence Obama utters is going to be used to enrich him and the missus.
===========================================
Obama's failure to utter a discouraging word about Christian slaughter by Muslims is a facet of the obamas get-rich-quick schemes. That's the way the cunning Clintons got-rich- quick....looking the other away at human rights abuses....just as long as the wealthy abusers ponied up big bucks.
Obama's using the presidency as a cash cow......just as Hillary used the State Dept as a cash cow to enrich her family members and all of the Clinton factotums, their cronies, and donors made out like thieves.
The Clintons soak up humongous foundations donations, pocket huge honoraria and collect enormous paychecks from insider business deals involving armaments, oil, telecoms, mining, uranium deposits, etc etc etc.
Malik was screened by (1) Homeland Security officials, (2) the US State Department, then (3) a third screening after applying for a green card, the NY Times reported.

Homeland Security seeks $41.2 billion budget for 2016
February 4, 2015 By BioPrepWatch Reports
Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson announced a $41.2 billion budget request Monday for the 2016 fiscal year.
The budget would improve the unity of effort at the department, Johnson said, focusing on harmonizing DHS business processes. Along with the budget, a new Common Appropriations Structure was also submitted to Congress, which would standardize financial planning, programming and budgets for all DH agencies, Johnson said.
There are five areas the department focuses on each year, and the budget is in alignment with those five missions, Johnson said.
<><> The first mission is to prevent terrorism and enhance security in the country by implementing security for the land, air and at sea.
<><> The next mission is to secure and manage the countrys borders, and reduce the number of illegal immigrants and amount of contraband getting into the United States.
<><> The third mission includes enforcing and administering immigration laws and providing safe and secure detention of illegal immigrants in federal custody if they are a flight risk or a public safety concern.
<><> The fourth mission deals with safeguarding and securing cyberspace, which impacts economic security. The 2016 budget would invest in technology and staff to reduce cybercrime and improve the security of federal network defenses.
<><> The fifth mission, Johnson said, is to strengthen national preparedness and resilience so the country can prepare and respond to any type of disaster.
Johnson said before Congress approves any funding for the next fiscal year lawmakers should approve funding for the current year.
The Presidents FY 2016 Budget provides the resources necessary for the Department of Homeland Security to further strengthen our efforts to fulfill our wide-ranging missions, while also being agile and vigilant in the face of ever-evolving threats and recent world events, Johnson said. But prior to acting on the FY 2016 Budget, I urge Congress to fully fund DHS for the rest of this fiscal year, as the current continuing resolution is disruptive, creates uncertainty, and impedes efficient resource planning and execution.

As lawmakers clash over refugees, Syrian immigration quietly tops 100,000 since 2012
Fake Syrian passports a concern

Mehlman said the same concerns raised in regard to the refugees - mainly that no reliable documents can be issued in a country in complete meltdown - apply to the Syrians already here.
"All civil order has collapsed, and meaningful background checks are impossible," Mehlman said. "Instead, we rely on cross-checking databases. However, many people with ties to terrorist groups are not in any databases, which means there is no way we can identify them before they arrive here."
