MR KIRBY: Good afternoon, everybody.

Got a special guest with me here today to kick off the briefing – Mr. Simon Henshaw, the Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Population, Refugees, and Migration, is going to walk you through for a few minutes some more details about the screening process for refugees. We’ve talked about this over the last few days, about how extensive and thorough it is, and I asked Mr. Henshaw to come give you a little primer on that. He’ll also be able to stick around for a couple of questions and then we’ll get on with our normal daily briefing.

So with that, I turn over the podium to Simon Henshaw. Sir.

I’m sure the mass murderers will have a list of all the beheadings they did in the deserts across the Middle East along witha full detail on the stonings and rapings they did while serving as a terrorist with his black hoodie and all. You know on the Terrorist Crime Database....Damn our government has some silver spoon-fed idiots (or pretending to be while setting the pins up to let ISIS in for $$$)

[NonValueAdded]

He sure used a whole lot of words to impart zero information.

If you want to get scared out of your skin. Read the entire briefing...nothing but meaningless Foggy Bottom bureaucratese gas.

Compare to Oct. 21: “FBI Director James Comey on Wednesday told Congress that the federal government cannot conduct thorough checks on all of the coming influx of 10,000 refugees from Syria.

Appearing before the House Committee on Homeland Security, Comey said Syrians who aren’t already in the FBI’s database are unknown to the agency, meaning their backgrounds cannot be adequately scoured for a risk of terrorism.

‘We can only query against that which we have collected,’ Comey told the committee under questioning.

‘So if someone has never made a ripple in the pond in Syria in a way that would get their identity or their interest reflected in our database, we can query our database until the cows come home, but there will be nothing show up because we have no record of them.”

Great find!

Is it true the UN is doing the screening for the US government??

[plangent]

Not one word on the “refugees” that sneak in, around the screeners, with fake Greek Passports.

[Travis McGee]

The UNHCR has subcontracted the vetting process to the Oranization of Islamic States. No kidding. That's why we are only getting 2% Christian refugees, even though 10% of Syrians are Christians, and they are suffering the worst prosecution.
