Update April 30th: Two Muslim Congressmen try to block Geert Wilders appearance in America, here.
I’m off again today, this time to DC and, alas, have no time to post much, but wanted to get this excellent article from Fox News posted before I catch the train. Hat tip: Richard atBlue Ridge Forum.
Thank goodness some sane heads are quoted throughout. Australia’s success in turning back the invaders is mentioned. And, the only thing missing is any mention of how Libya became a launching pad for the invasion with Hillary’s help.
Geert Wilders: The “Islamicization” of Europe is well underway.
The humanitarian disaster unfolding on the Mediterranean is likely already providing a “shield” for Islamist terrorists to infiltrate waves of migrants attempting the perilous crossing from North Africa to Europe, terrorism experts and other strategic observers are warning. And they say a UN plan to resettle 1 million refugees in Western nations would turn the situation into a full-blown security crisis.
The exodus now unfolding, as well as the UN call to take in refugees from war-torn Middle Eastern and African nations over the next five years, is providing a “shield for the passage of jihadists to Europe,” said one analyst.Once absorbed into the societies of Europe and other rich countries such as the United States, ISIS operatives would be set to eventually gain all the freedoms of other citizens of those countries – including the freedom to travel, often without having to go through the extra scrutiny involved in obtaining a passport visa.
“ISIS has threatened to [infiltrate the migrants] and German intelligence already said that this is a real threat,” Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders told FoxNews.com from The Netherlands. “An open door policy would – both for the USA and Europe – mean that the threat of Islamists and terrorists entering our countries would increase to a very dangerous level.”
Just a reminder that the UN High Commissioner for Refugees already has 11,000 Syrian refugeespicked out for your home towns. Tell your Member of Congress and your US Senators—NO resettlement in your town!
Red states turn blue as towns are colonized across the heartland!
If your community is considering “welcoming” refugees, please pay attention! Spartanburg are you listening!
Once you open a resettlement office in your town, the flow will NOT end!
I tell every group I speak to that the schools will be the first place to suffer if you open your city or town to refugees! See my Ten Things Your Town Needs to Know, here. And, remember it isn’t just the cost to taxpayers that will be felt, it is that education for American kids will suffer as teachers struggle to bring non-English speaking students up to speed!
Local and state taxpayers will pay for interpreters required by a Clinton-era Executive Order!
Yesterday Houston, today Wichita. Bye Bye! Red state America. https://refugeeresettlementwatch.org/2015/04/26/houston-tx-dazzling-diversity-turns-red-states-blue/
WICHITA, Kan. (AP) – The Wichita school district, which already has one of the most ethnically diverse student bodies in the state, is trying to respond to the challenges presented by an influx of non-native English speaking children from Latin America, the Middle East and Africa.
The district has more than 350 students from other countries and 160 from other U.S. states who speak minimal English. Currently, 81 languages are spoken in the district, The Wichita Eagle reported. It has 11 classrooms spread throughout the district devoted to teaching recent immigrants and refugees.

Because federal law requires schools to provide information to parents in their preferred language, an Arabic speaker is on call to help teachers and others communicate with families. And the district contracts with Propio Language Services, an interpreting service that enables teachers and parents who speak any language to converse by phone through an interpreter.
[….]
The number of students speaking Vietnamese, Lao and Cambodian has decreased while students speaking languages from Africa and the Middle East have increased dramatically in recent years, Hale said. Many in the latter group are refugees from camps in central Africa, Iraq, Lebanon and Jordan.
The 10 main language groups, in order, are: English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Arabic, Lao, Cambodian, the Chinese family of languages, Bengali, Urdu and Swahili.
Ten years ago, fewer than 4,300 Wichita students required ESOL — English for Speakers of Other Languages — service. This year, 9,316 students qualified for services, or about 18 percent of the district population.
Wichita school board members recently said they worry a new block-grant funding plan for schools will prevent the district from getting more funding to provide services for the refugees and other immigrants.
“That’s a huge concern, because we will not be receiving additional money for those students,” said board president Sheril Logan.
Who is responsible for wrecking the school system in Wichita?
Start with the refugee contractors! Call them and ask for their “abstracts” to see what amenities they are bragging about and how many refugees they are bringing in.

This was one more case of the Obama Administration re-writing (perverting!) refugee law when they declared that Guantanamo Bay prisoners were really “refugees” to be resettled by the South American country of Uruguay. We told you about the outrage here in December (see who in the Obama Administration made the call).
Now, the bloom is off the rose for Uruguay (the ‘refugees’ do not want to work) and the former prisoners expect you, the American taxpayer, to help them out financially.
MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay (AP) — Four freed Guantanamo Bay detainees protested in front of the U.S. Embassy on Friday night, saying they were angry about being asked to leave a Uruguayan hotel that had been housing them and demanding Washington help them financially.
Former Gitmo prisoners (aka ‘refugees’) pray outside US Embassy in Montevideo.
Adel bin Muhammad El Ouerghi said he had been asked to leave the Metro hotel, a budget inn where he and some of the other five former detainees periodically stayed.
The four Syrians, one Tunisian and one Palestinian have been housed in a four-bedroom house in Uruguay’s capital since the government took them in after their release in December. But “we are too many to stay in the house,” said El Ouerghi, who spent much of the last few months at the hotel.
As a humanitarian gesture, the men were invited to resettle in this poor South American country of 3.3 million people by President Jose Mujica, who has since left office.
They allegedly had ties to al-Qaida and spent 12 years in the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. But they were never charged, and the U.S. released them because officials decided they were no longer a threat.
El Ouerghi said the men wanted to speak with the U.S. ambassador to Uruguay. He said the United States should help the men financially, an argument he and a few of the other former detainees have made repeatedly.
Citizens of Uruguay are disgusted!
While the men’s arrival to Uruguay was greeted by fanfare, the smiles and posing for pictures quickly turned to complaints and controversy. By their own admission, they have struggled to adjust, and on several occasions have complained about not getting enough help from Uruguay’s government.
In early February, a controversy erupted when people in Uruguay learned that the men had been offered jobs but did not take them.
Endnote: Uruguay got a lot of publicity last year when the government said it would take in Syrian refugees, but it appears they got the first batch and said no more Muslim men!
Gee, is that Eric Holder or Loretta Lynch he wants to “whack?”
Little Mogadishu is of course Minneapolis!

I wish I knew all this excitement was going on when I was in the neighborhood on Friday!
This is a story about a friend of the six (latest batch) terrorists charged with planning to join ISIS so they could participate in killing for Allah. He also tweeted the photo of the FBI’s confidential informant.
A man who made death threats on Twitter against federal law enforcement officials in connection with the case against six Minneapolis men accused of trying to join ISIL now faces federal charges of his own.
Mahamed Abukar Said, 19, was charged Friday with two criminal counts for threatening “to assault and murder a federal law enforcement officer.”
According to the criminal complaints, he tweeted a photo of the government’s confidential informant in the case against the six defendants accused of conspiring to join ISIL. He also threatened federal prosecutors with a “massacre,” investigators allege.
Included in the federal complaint were copies of Said’s alleged tweets, including one that said, “Ima whack that us attorney general.”
The criminal complaint said that Said lives in Minneapolis with relatives, “attends school, and is on probationary supervision in Hennepin County for a fifth-degree controlled substance offense.”
Said appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Steven Rau, who signed the complaint, filed and also signed by FBI Special Agent Michael Iverson.
The charges note that in addition to a threat to kill the U.S. Attorney General, Said added, “The Feds are getting two choices. Either they gon free my bros or they gon have a massacre happen then they gon take me too.”
Wake up Minnesota! You paid to raise this punk and his friends!
Tell the church resettlement contractors to stop bringing refugees like these charmers to the state! And, everybody reading this should tell your Members of Congress, US Senators, and Presidential candidates to STOP the resettlement of Somalis to America! They are not our problem and we are presently bringing in between 800 and 900 a MONTH!
This is one of those warm and fuzzy stories telling us about the joys of diversity in the midst of cowboy country. Frankly, it made me think it might already be too late to save our conservative values and American way of life. The newcomers are going to want their stuff, their government services, and the Democrats will be right there to give it to them. Why would any of them vote Republican?But, of course that is why our Republican leadership is looking more and more like Democrats these days!

This is a city of contrasts. It is a hub of first-rate medical institutions with almost one-fourth of its population uninsured. One of the nation’s most ethnically mixed metro areas and, at the same time, one of its most economically segregated. Routinely ranked top in the country for job growth, with a school system where 80 percent of students are disadvantaged.
An amalgam of promise and pitfalls.
It is also a region of dazzling diversity – and becoming more so every day.
More than 1 million immigrants – nearly one of every four residents – call Harris County and the surrounding 10-county metro area home.
From 2000 to 2010, Houston gained 400,000 foreign-born residents, more than any other U.S. city except New York. Last year, the county received 4,818 refugees from 40 different countries, the most of any county in Texas.
The newcomers have done more than shift our demographics. They have created a metropolis where one-third of business owners are foreign-born, where the number of Buddhists, Muslims and Hindus has tripled in the last three decades, where more than 100 languages are spoken by students attending Houston public schools.
Even in a nation where the number of immigrants has doubled since 1990, the Houston area stands apart.
So who is helping turn red states blue?

For a little deeper study, I selected Catholic Charities. The US Conference of Catholic Bishops settles the largest number of refugees in the US and they are also in your pockets for the care of ‘unaccompanied alien children.’
Looking at a recent Form 990 for Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston we learn that they had a gifts and grants flow of $25,525,040 and they fed off the government trough to the tune of $16,463,451. I also hoped to find the salaries for their key employees but those pages were blank!
What can you do? Find out exactly what these Houston refugee contractors are telling the feds about the amenities Houston offers refugees by asking for their abstracts—ask for abstracts going back for five consecutive years. What is an ‘abstract?’ Go here to learn more about this important document.
It is Sunday morning, ask your local Priest if he believes the Catholic Church should be taking millions and millions of dollars from the federal treasury. Ask if that is Christian charity?
