Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

72 Muslims from countries covered by Trump ban convicted of terrorism

Feb 11, 2017 2:41 pm By Robert Spencer

How many is too many? What number of Americans killed by jihadis is enough for the Left? Is there any limit that will make them say, “All right, now we have to call a halt to this” and restrict immigration? Or is open borders the unalterable goal no matter how many Americans die in jihad massacres?

“Report: 72 convicted of terrorism from ‘Trump 7’ mostly Muslim countries,” by Paul Bedard, Washington Examiner, February 11, 2017:

Since 9/11, 72 individuals from the seven mostly Muslim countries covered by President Trump’s “extreme vetting” executive order have been convicted of terrorism, a finding that clashes sharply with claims from an appeals court that there is “no evidence” those countries have produced a terrorist.

According to a report out Saturday, at least 17 claimed to be refugees from those nations, three came in as “students,” and 25 eventually became U.S. citizens.

The Center for Immigration Studies calculated the numbers of convicted terrorists from the Trump Seven:

— Somalia: 20

— Yemen: 19

— Iraq: 19

— Syria: 7

— Iran: 4

— Libya: 2

— Sudan: 1

The Center’s director of policy studies, Jessica M. Vaughan, based her blockbuster report on a 2016 report from the Senate Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on Immigration and the National Interest, then chaired by new Attorney General Jeff Sessions, that report found that 380 out of 580 people convicted in terror cases since 9/11 were foreign-born.

She received further information on many in the report to conclude that 72 of those convicted of terrorism come from the seven nations target by Trump….

    I hope President Trump will win in the end – or we will read about another terrorist attack 🙁

      nicu, yes we will.. I am afraid there are plans underway as we sit here.. There is no doubt that many of the savages that Obama dumbed into our backyards have already made plans to kill us. My only hope is instead of malls, schools, work places, or any gathering such as churches will not be first on their list.. Maybe the Holly weird crowd, or the nutty courts would be more spectacular in their eyes.. So that the innocent people who OPPOSE letting them in will not be the first target.. Just saying… Justice is justice. Hate to be that frank but, I for one am totally tired of the savages, attaching then the ones who protect their “right” to kill us would wake the dead brains up. Pres. Trump is doing what he said he would do, and the left and Islamic lovers are doing what they always do. Let us hope Trump does pull off the plan to protect us!!

    There’s something ‘sick’ about people who are willing to place their loyalty and allegiance to a particular political ideology (Leftism/Liberalism) above their own personal safety (as well as that of those they love)!

      Some are in denial, you are told by your own president that Islam is a religion of peace. He didn’t or would call it Isis but call it isil so until you really know what the real truth then nothing will change. Canada us no better .

        Dawn, that is exactly why, THAT President is GONE… Our President Trump does not speak that way, and does not believe that crap that Trudeau does.. Better update your political lineup. BTW clean out that pony who does tricks for the Muslim killers who now occupy Canada.. I am quite sure when the pony comes south to meet with OUR PRESIDENT, he will be told that up front. He may be paying for a wall on the northern border if Canada does not watch it’s immigration policy of Muslim terrorists…

    Both sides of the political isle will claim ‘false facts’, or ‘alt facts’.

    If this list is fact…When it comes to Jihad and terrorism, one would think we could at least be able to find common ground on a list of factual data.

    …People’s lives ARE at stake after all.

    Does the Justice Department have a list of crimes committed by refugee criminals by country of origin?

    Again many of the middle class supporters of refugees know that they will never come into contact with these refugees because of the exclusive areas the open border folks live in. They have no concern about the safety of the rest of us.

    Exactly. Which number of JIHAD KILLERS is TOO MANY?

    Would that the US had used extreme vetting before 9/11 and kept out a certain 19 SAUDI CITIZENS who committed the attacks.

    All Muslims are called to jihad even though few believe in Islam strongly enough to offer up their lives.

    To stop worldwide jihad, the countries which condone it, must be admonished and punished using travel restrictions and sanctions. When they stop helping jihad, they can resume normal relations.

    …………………

    This should surprise *no one*.

    • Mark Swan says

      Feb 12, 2017 at 12:55 am

      Yes, 72 convictions. I think that the appeals court which said there is “no evidence” any
      of those countries have produced a terrorist, should make sure they got the facts before making a statement, let alone making a ruling after such an incorrect statement has been made.

      • gravenimage says

        Feb 13, 2017 at 12:16 am

        Yes, shocking dishonesty. I guess they only realize they can’t deny it if it involves directly slaughtering dozens of Americans.

    If the POTUS can’t keep bad guys out of the country, who’s going to do it? Nancy Pelosi? Maxine Waters? Madonna? Michael Moore???

    The only way to keep America safe from Islamic terrorism, is to ban Islam…

    • Jan Aage Jeppesen says

      Feb 12, 2017 at 1:03 pm

      Surely Islam is an UnAmerican religion. Can President Trump fill in the void after Senator McCarthy?

      The vetting proces should start with the simple question: “Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of or supporter of a religuous faith or congregation that does not teach, that all men are created equal?”

      That will do the trick! 😉

    Jihadi “immigrants” will persecute and kill Christians. Democrats, progressives, leftists, totalitarians hate Christians and Christianity. Nuff sed. And, lagniappe for the democrats etc; the peaceloving jihadis, their children, and their grandchildren will vote, in some places 103%, for democrats, forever. Think not? Check out all the urban welfare plantations and their voting records since 1964. This is why under St Obama we had 19000 Mohammedans and 190 Christians from Syria.
