IRAQI REFUGEES and domestic terrorism. “It took twenty years before the Somali refugee program began producing ‘home-grown’ terrorists in any numbers, and they were home-grown in a real sense; many were disaffected second-generation immigrants rediscovering their Somali roots and ancient Somali loyalties. The Iraq refugee program seems to have eliminated the twenty-year lag, admitting at least two fully-formed militant Islamic terrorists in April and July of 2009, according to the indispensable Lawfare blog. Upon admission as terrorists, and while they were probably still receiving welfare and other assistance from the US government, the two resumed their careers in support of terrorism aimed at American troops. Luckily, the FBI was in control of their terrorist planning, and the two have now been arrested and indicted.”
