Homeland Security Chairman Warns U.S. Doesn't Have Proper Vetting System For 10,000 Syrian Refugees

Yesterday the White House announced the United States will take in at least 10,000 Syrian refugees under instruction from President Obama.

"The United States, at the direction of the United States, has played a leading role in addressing the dire humanitarian crisis in the Middle East and North Africa," White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said Thursday during the daily briefing. "One thing that the United States can do is to begin to let more Syrian refugees into the United States. This year, this fiscal year that will end this month, the United States is on track to take in about 1500 Syrian refugees. The president has directed his team to scale up that number next year and he's informed his team he would like them to accept, at least make preparations, for 10,000 refugees."

Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee Michael McCaul is expressing grave concerns about the move and is warning that the U.S. doesn't have the systems in place through Homeland Security or the FBI to properly vet refugees coming from the terrorism hotspots of Syria and Iraq.

“The President wants to surge thousands of Syrian refugees into the United States, in spite of consistent intelligence community and federal law enforcement warnings that we do not have the intelligence needed to vet individuals from the conflict zone. We also know that ISIS wants to use refugee routes as cover to sneak operatives into the West. I implore the President to consult with Congress before taking any drastic action and to level with the American people about the very real security challenges we face," McCaul released in a statement. "It is heart-wrenching to watch innocent Syrians fleeing the violence in their country, and we can do more to help. But the best way to solve this crisis is at the source. The President needs to develop a real strategy for victory to defeat ISIS and remove Assad from power, which is the root cause of the problem. This is the culmination of a failed foreign policy to deal with the threats and now we have a humanitarian crisis on our hands.”

As McCaul mentioned, ISIS has vowed to use the refugee crisis to infiltrate western Europe and eventually, the United States.

Since we will have to pay for them anyway. Let’s only take 10,000 women and children. There should be a lot of widows & children. Absolutely NO single, widowed or divorced adult males!

I have a personal ideological dilemma here. While I am highly concerned about ‘vetting’ any new Muslim refugee, immigrant or otherwise, I am equally concerned about vetting anyone that works for DHS, too. Remember TSA falls under DHS......

Frankly, I don’t trust them, and I certainly don’t believe them. I think they are Obama’s oft mentioned “....well funded, well trained, well armed civilian defense force equal to the DoD.....”. That’s all I need to know about DHS and their profiles of homegrown American right wing terrorists.

If we could only send back one illegal Mexican for every Syrian Christian we take in—it would be a good deal.

We are witnessing the destruction of Western civilization followed by the genocide of Christians, Jews and all who do not submit to Islam

The West is opening its door to hundreds of thousands of potential jihadists that have been indoctrinated since childhood to kill all the “infidels” that do not convert to Islam.

Islam: “Let us smile to the face of some people while our hearts curse them.” Al-Hassan said: “Doing taqiyya is acceptable till the day of judgment [in perpetuity].

OK, Josh, who normally directs us?

I’m not sure if I really want to know that answer to that.
