Steven A. Camarota, director of research for the Center for Immigration Studies, said the problem with 245(i) is twofold: Not only are the background checks more thorough in home countries, because they are done by embassies and consulates with local connections, but 245(i) applicants who are turned down in the United States can ignore the decision and the INS usually won't find them. Hadayet reportedly had failed in an application for asylum before applying under section 245(i). "Just like other terrorists in the past, he has exploited a host of loopholes," Mr. Camarota said.

Weren't we told that Section 245(i) only applied to foreign nationals who were the victims of INS paperwork snafus, and that it couldn't be exploited by terrorists?
More than a million Illegals have benefitted from various incarnations of Clinton's Section 245(i) Amnesty. Every one of them, including Hashem Hadayet, displaced a legal immigration applicant who was playing by the rules and waiting their turn in line.
Is this really the way we want to do business?

Yes, we were. And I remember who did the telling.

You weren't waiting for a retraction, were you?

Hadayet's wife won legal residence through the diversity lottery, through which the State Department awards about 55,000 immigrant visas a year to applicants from a list of countries with low rates of immigration to the United States.

diversity = applied racism

apply liberally, lather, rinse, repeat.

As always , excellent comments!

Boy this is an easy way for the Jihad group to implant their sleepers.

Molly Hennenburg had a good segment on this on Fox last night and wrapped it with the Qatar visas for sale scandal. She ended the report by stating that many caitol hill people are starting to change their minds.

Tonight FOX Pulse program should really light a fire in formerly complacent public. Mexicans smuggling Arabs.

"Every one of them, including Hashem Hadayet, displaced a legal immigration applicant who was playing by the rules and waiting their turn in line."

Now, that's a new one. Are you certain that's the case? I have never seen that mentioned anywhere, and I've read a lot on 245(i).

Having said that, it's a damned shame that evil people take advantage of what was designed primarily to benefit good people. But criminals will be criminals, and they will take advantage of loopholes and opportunities to do evil...it's their nature.

We also saw terrorists walk into the country legally, no way to stop that either, unless you are willing to completely shut-off the ability for anyone to come to the US, for business, vacation, family visits, anything at all...

To keep this incident in perspective, our representative Republic form of government saw us vote a criminal into office not once, but TWICE in the past ten years. Does that mean that the system doesn't work and should be abandoned?

No, it simply means that NOTHING is perfect.

Thanks for the ping.
