DHS Emails Reveal U.S. May Have Terrorist “Hands Off” List
Judicial Watch ^ | MAY 09, 2014 | Judicial Watch

The Obama administration appears to have a terrorist “hands off” list that permits individuals with extremist ties to enter the country, according to internal Department of Homeland Security (DHS) documents obtained by a United States Senator.

It’s unimaginable that any government would do this, but it seems like the Obama administration is constantly breaking new ground. The disturbing details of this secret initiative were made public this week by Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley, who has obtained DHS electronic mail discussing what could be a terrorist “hands off” list. The exchange includes a 2012 email chain between U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) asking whether to admit an individual with ties to various terrorist groups. The individual had scheduled an upcoming flight into the U.S., according to an announcement issued by the senator.

The person was believed to be a member of the Muslim Brotherhood and a close associate and supporter Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, according to the mail exchange obtained by Grassley’s office. The terrorist suspect had also been in secondary inspection “several dozen times of the past several years,” the agency emails reveal, but had not undergone a secondary inspection since 2010. This seems to imply that the suspect has been on the U.S. government’s radar for some time.

This is just like muzzies getting a pass through TSA and an exemption from having to be subject to Obamacare. White-bread American citizens are 2nd class! Who took the money for these pay-offs?

The people that fostered this need to be in Gitmo with the rest of those aiding terrorism!

“I am trying to think of a reason why any government would allow this person into the US”

While you are thinking of a reason why DHS does this, tell me the reason why DHS fondles 9 year old girls at airports, confiscates sewing kits from elderly ladies, forces a cancer survivor remove her prosthesis, steals over $500,000 in jewelry, electronic devices and other items from airline passengers, etc.

Space limits me from listing all the stupid and corrupt things that DHS does.
