I have heard at least a half dozen times in the last few days that since 9/11 the United States has allowed 1.5 million Middle Eastern immigrants into our country and, so far, none have turned out to be terrorists. This seemed like obvious BS to me so I resorted to Google and, in a trice, I found this reference ... see: ABC Article. Here we learn that a few dozen suspected terrorists have arrived on our shores as political refugees ... including former bomb makers (IEDs) from Iraq.
More importantly, the Tsarnaev family was granted political asylum in the U.S. in 2002. As we all should know, this family produce the two Boston Marathon bombers. Technically the Tsarnaev brothers are not Middle Eastern (being from near Chechnya) but they are surely Muslim terrorists.
And here is a much more extensive list of terrorists who have been captured here since 9/11: The majority of which are Muslims and, I suspect, many had been welcomed into the United States. Take a little time to adsorb this extensive list of bad guys ... see: Wikipedia Entry.
There was also today this article which listed more terrorists here in the U.S. ... see:UK Mail Article.
It does seem that such false factoids quickly find there way into the popular narrative and, once there, are more difficult to eradicate than kudzu.
Afterward: See also: Breitbart Article.
