Importing Terrorist
Every 9/11 Americans are reminded of the WTC terrorist attacks. However the United States is attacked more frequently than many of us would like to believe. Often our policing agencies work in unison to foil terror plots our country is facing on a daily basis. For instance, on September 24th, there were two separate and unrelated bombing attempts. One such attempt was on a 60 
story downtown Dallas skyscraper and another was in Springfield Illinois. Earlier this month, several men in Colorado and New York are being charged or sought after for their roles in attempting to commit mass destruction on the United States.
I can’t help but wonder who’s doing this and how did they end up on US soil in the first place. With the exception of Timothy James McVeigh (Oklahoma City bombing, April 19, 1995) the majority of other terrorist were either Muslim and/or Middle Eastern. Fifteen of the nineteen 9/11 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia, two from the UAE, one from Egypt and one from Lebanon. So I ask, why do we insist on allowing immigration of individuals from known terrorist hotspots (Jordan, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia and Egypt, parts of Lebanon, Palestine, Kuwait, Afghanistan, UAE, Pakistan, and India)? My initial thought is cheap labor, but most terrorist from 
these countries are skilled labor immigrants, well educated and do not come cheap. Are we importing Middle Eastern immigrants to appease their governments so that they will keep supplying oil? With double digit unemployment and a robust surplus of college graduates with degrees in technical and scientific fields, it has become obvious that the United States does not need to import skilled labor. In fact, we have a vast surplus of un-skilled and un-lettered citizens within the U.S. So why this great need to import and import recklessly? Within minutes of the September 11th plane bombings the FBI already had names and faces of all 19 terrorist who were directly involved in the planning and attacks on the WTC. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is associated with many of the September 11th bombers. We now have a confession from him as the master mind behind 9/11/01 and let’s not forget the WTC bombing of 1993 where six Americans lost their lives and thousands were injured. Yet, these men were allowed in our country and were never monitored. Nothing was done until after the fact and after the fact is always too late!
Many debates have and will continue to take place as the decades pass as to why September 11th happened in the first place. But, be prepared and forewarned that there is probably no one reason as to why the United States government continues to allow immigration of individuals from the Middle East. Many of these immigrants have terrorist ties just as the nineteen did. Arguments will be made that it would be discriminatory of the U.S. to disallow Middle Eastern immigrants; however, I beg to differ. If your citizens continue to murder mine in mass droves, do I not have the right to discriminate and remove them from my soil? Truly, discrimination is never a popular solution; but, if the U.S. government represented its citizens jealously, at least 6,000 plus of them would still be alive today. And, at 44 years old I would be able to go see the World Trade Center for the first time in person.
So the question remains, Why does the United States government continue to import Middle Eastern citizens?
