Nearly SEVENTY are arrested in America over ISIS plots - and they include refugees who had been given safe haven but 'turned to terror' Federal and local law enforcement agencies have made dozens of arrests of men and women suspected of ISIS involvement Analysis shows that they include refugees who entered the United States as refugees Increasing pressure from Republicans not to accept refugees from Syria on scale demanded by White House Ted Cruz plans to introduce legislation forbidding refugee status to Syrian Muslims and moves also under way to defund settling refugees US authorities have charged at least 66 men and women with ISIS-related terror plots on American soil – including a handful of refugees, Daily Mail Online can reveal. The terror group has set its sights on Washington, D.C. as it vows to further infiltrate the West and ramp up its blood-soaked offensive.

Jesus Christ Almighty a new low in deceptive headlines The 70 arrested INCLUDED a HANDFUL of refugees (apparently 4) and they were BOSNIANS, not Syrian. Way to go, you're almost as good as FOX at this.
Which proves that it doesn't matter where Muslims come from, they turn on anybody that takes them in.
What the left fails to understand, or chooses to ignore for political purposes, is that Muhammad was a 7th century warlord, who killed many people in sadistic ways (the same ways ISIS is killing people today), so it's really not hard to believe that a so called "moderate" Muslim can easily become a terrorist when deciding to follow in the ways of Muhammad.
The Daily Mail? Sheesh! They're about a "fair and balanced" as the National Enquirer. Talk about another right wing rag.
A new low in missing the point. As Paris demonstrated, a handful in a crowd can kill a hundred or more in a very short time. And the Administration's inability to vet Bosnian refugees suddenly turns into ability when they change from Bosnian refuggees to Syrian refugees? Do Lefties have any thoughts to go through their mind before their knees jerk? Eight ISIS suspects posing as refugees arrested at Istanbul airport http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/620249/Eight-arrested-Istanbul-airport-amid-ISIS-fears Yes, Fox News even questioned the Administrations claims that the Benghazi Attack was just a "spontaneous demonstration to a video". Should Fox even be allowed to be on the air if they are going to keep challenging the Adminstration's narrative? Gee, and it seems like just yesterday when Hillary was screeching that "DISSENT IS THE HIGHEST FORM OF PATRIOTISM!
The Daily Mail is a British tabloid that has found fun and profit in pandering to American right wingers. As a tabloid, they know the art of sensationalism, fear mongering and yellow journalism, that is so appealing to the American right. Of course, that includes misleading the audience into believing that these arrests just happened. And they "can reveal" it now, because they read it in the Washingon Post, a publication that their editors know the audience doesn't read. Moreover, the Post article, which is both accurate and responsible (unliked the DM piece) notes that these arrest have taken place of the past two years, not in recent days, ans the Mail tries to mislead its readers into believing. https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/national/isis-suspects/ - - - Updated - - - And you know that how, exactly? Oh, that's right, you made it up!
So, you're telling us that because of events that happened 1400 years ago, no Muslim can be thought of a moderate??????? Not that that makes any real sense. But it sure is a great expression of fear and xenophobia, not to mention religious bigotry. If you wonder why ISIS describes Westerners as "Crusaders", its because the radicals there say the exact same sorts of thing about Christianity as you just did about Islam.
Muslims, today, are taught to view Muhammad as Christians view Jesus. Both are viewed as sinless, blameless men, worthy of emulation. All you have to do is look into the biographies of both men to see stark differences. A Muslim can only be "moderate" if he/she chooses to ignore substantial amounts of their religion. The second they stop doing that, they are extremists.
The story was all over the map, and extremely long. A few eye catching lines. I think this thread is based on almost complete fabrication. - - - Updated - - - We'll go with untrue.
Finally a Democrat With Half a Brain Emerges: Senator Schumer: Syrian Refugee Pause May Be Necessary And what was your first clue? Was it the AK-47's hosing down innocent civilians at that concert in Paris? Republican Paul Ryan Led the charge for common sense, and it looks like more Democrats are starting to cross over the isle to clearly the only sensible conclusion. Thank goodness. After repeated applications of a 2*4 to the head a glimmer of hope emerges, the crazy suicidal grip of their previous plan begins to give way to reason. http://thehill.com/blogs/floor-action/senate/260471-schumer-refugee-pause-may-be-necessary
I don't think these Democrats would be "sensible" as much as they are opportunistic. Internal polling is probably telling them that they have more to lose by supporting this program at this time, than not supporting it. Once public opinion changes on the subject, they'll be right there with a brand new "principled" standpoint. Whatever helps them win.
Try and keep up. Tom Fitz posted this link trying to bash my link. The story's true. https://www.washingtonpost.com/graph...isis-suspects/
And it's just been revealed that Obama has instructed his WH staff to NOT divulge any of the background info on the Syrian refugees to local law enforcement or the governors in the states they're to be resettled in.
The DM article is true only to the extent that the raw facts are there. The fact that they tried to mislead you into believing that this just happened is another matter. But, since you bought that narrative, you're obviously going to cling to it, regardless of the facts.
I suspect you know next to nothing about Islam, and have no basis whatsoever for making that claim, even though it does an excellent job of making my point. As a matter of fact, we know next to nothing about the real life of Jesus Christ. The Gospels do not cover most of his life. We have no idea whether he had a wife or family, how he made a living, whether he was involved in politics, or anything else.
Most terrorist acts in Europe/UK are committed by homegrown Muslim terrorists. Both in the UK and in France. They were born in Europe. They grew up with us, went through our education system and finally turned on us. Forget about Syrian refugees. The biggest threat to all of us is Saudi Arabia. They financed radical mosques all over the world. All those guys were brainwashed in mosques. The step in the right direction would be to immediately shut down any mosques where hatred is preached. Across Europe.
But they're refugees "fleeing" strife from Islamic regions of the world who are intolerant of western culture and turned to terrorism as a result... Just like the Boston bombers, just like at least one of the men involved with the terrorist attack in France recently. When are liberals going to put 2 and 2 together?
Actually the lead and most of the first few paragraphs of the article are crafted to create that impression. But you don't have to take my word for it. Several rigth wingers here on this very thread fell for it. It's a plainly sensationalist piece. It was cribbed from information in the Washington Post, rewritten so that the dates of the arrests are WAY DOWN in the copy ,and wrapped with the paranoia fueling opportunism of some GOP governors and Paul Ryan.
