Somali Muslim migrant Mohammad Barry in February 2016 stabbed multiple patrons at a restaurant owned by an Israeli Arab Christian; Ahmad Khan Rahami, an Afghan Muslim migrant, in September 2016 set off bombs in New York City and New Jersey; Arcan Cetin, a Turkish Muslim migrant, in September 2016 murdered five people in a mall in Burlington, Washington; Dahir Adan, another Somali Muslim migrant, in October 2016 stabbed mall shoppers in St. Cloud while screaming “Allahu akbar”; and Abdul Razak Artan, yet another Somali Muslim migrant, in November 2016 injured nine people with car and knife attacks at Ohio State University. 72 jihad terrorists have come to the U.S. from the countries listed in Trump’s initial immigration ban.
What’s more, all of the jihadis who murdered 130 people in Paris in November 2015 had just entered Europe as refugees. In February 2015, the Islamic State boasted it would soon flood Europe with as many as 500,000 refugees. The Lebanese Education Minister said in September 2015 that there were 20,000 jihadis among the refugees in camps in his country. On May 10, 2016, Patrick Calvar, the head of France’s DGSI internal intelligence agency, said that the Islamic State was using migrant routes through the Balkans to get jihadis into Europe.
“‘Davos Man’: Mass Muslim Migration Makes Europe More Secure,” by Virginia Hale, Breitbart, November 16, 2017:
Third world migrants have ‘greatly helped’ economies in Europe, and can help prevent violent extremism, according to World Economic Forum (WEF) Global Agenda Council on Migration chairman Dr. Khalid Koser MBE.
Speaking with Refugees Deeply, the executive director of the Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund (GCERF) said extremism and terrorism are “absolutely… a homegrown issue” that has nothing to do with immigration.
Koser claims that migration is not only beneficial to societies and economies but can also help ‘prevent’ violent extremism.
“If there is a link between violent extremism and migration, it is that violent extremism is driving people from their homes, not that people are coming to our shores to commit violent extremism.
“It’s so obvious that it shouldn’t need to be said, but it does need to be said,” added Koser, who edits the Journal of Refugee Studies, and holds fellowships and professorships at a number of institutions including the United Nations University – Maastricht Economic and Social Research Institute on Innovation and Technology (UNU-MERIT).
Contradicting his claim was a report published in August which found that refugees and asylum seekers have been involved in more than half of terror plots in Germany since the onset of the migrant crisis — including the deadly Berlin attack in which a Tunisian rammed a lorry into crowds at a Christmas market.
Asked about the national security dimension of illegal immigration, he contended that there is “no evidence that irregular migrants are any more inclined toward criminality or terrorism than nationals”.
“There’s no doubt that there are certain groups of irregular migrants in certain cities that are committing crimes, whether it’s pickpocketing or fraud or petty crime,” he acknowledged.
“But overall the data suggests that criminality, and absolutely extremism and terrorism, are a homegrown issue more than an imported issue.”
Complaining that too much attention is focused on “national security, terrorism, extremism and crime”, Koser argued that the migration debate should be shifted to prioritise “human security” concerns including the deaths of people in the process of trying to migrate illegally, and racism.
“It’s quite clear that the real security concern is that a large number of migrants, asylum seekers, and refugees are facing human security challenges, whether because they’re fleeing persecution, dying in transit, or facing discrimination in their new country,” he said.
The MBE recipient said it was a “big mistake” to suggest “that because an important but small number of people have become foreign terrorist fighters, that immigration has failed in Europe.
“Integration in Europe has been immensely successful,” he insisted. “Millions upon millions of people have come to Europe and flourished and helped our economies greatly.”
A variety of datasets show that mass immigration from outside Europe is a net cost to nations’ treasuries, with non-EU migrants costing Britain £16 billion a year net, while across the continent they have more than double the unemployment rates of Europeans.
One field in which non-EU migrants do make an outsized contribution, data from across the continent suggests, is crime.
In France, estimates of the proportion of prisoners who are Muslim range between 40 to 50 per cent, in a country where the Muslim population is estimated to be eight to 10 per cent, while 20 per cent of high-security prison inmates are Muslim in Britain, where just five per cent of the population follow Islam….

Worse criminals than Muslims are our own leaders who DENY any link between Muslims and Terror and these imbeciles get elected repeatedly repeatedly instead of being tarried and feathered

“Third world migrants have ‘greatly helped’ economies in Europe, …”
That’s correct. Bureaucrats in the swelling welfare departments all over Europe stuff their pockets with the taxpayers money in order to facilitate the import of third world migrants in order to enlarge their offices so that they can import more etc. etc.
Jaladhi says
Simply speaking these Muslims can never be believed. For them truth and lies are reversed whenever anything connected with Muslims is concerned! Who the hell even elects them ot any high position!
Benedict says
“But overall the data suggests that criminality, and absolutely extremism and terrorism, are a homegrown issue more than an imported issue.” –
That’s also correct. When millions of Muslims are uprooted and planted in new countries belonging to the region of dal al-Harb extremism and terrorism soon becomes homegrown.
Abinavam Narayanan Rajaram says
Whether from Arab nations, African nations or Asian nations or from any other continents- – the thumb rule should be careful scrutiny of all immigrants if ever the concerned country wants to preserve its culture and stability. This is not a retrograde step but a minimum of minimum safety standards to be meticulously followed. Otherwise each defaulting nation will have to face chaos and anarchy in the long run however best its police force seems to be. Just living on a moral ground of humanism is no solution to the current problem. The basics of Islam is Dhar-ul-Harab and Dhar-Ul-Islam (world parts ruled by non-muslims and hence a Hell and world parts ruled by muslims and hence a Heaven). And it is incumbent on every devout muslim to convert the hell into heaven, be it by any means, moral or immoral, ethical or non-ethical. Every country, before it invites immigrants, need to carefully understand the political overtone of this tenet. This politicisation of Islam should make all non-muslims ruled countries extremely alert, as otherwise they will be certainly under great peril, losing their very foundation.

To IQR and ANR. Absolutely spot on comments. An aside; I donated to JW yesterday and immediately afterwards got a notification that someone was trying to get into my computer. Avast said they’d taken care of it and had blocked the invader.
I also donated to Pamela Geller. Didn’t get any notification from Avast on that donation. Am wondering if my computer is still safe.
To Robert Spencer. Does your security also cover donors? Guess I could also ask the same question of Pamela’s staff.
I pray for your safety, Robert, together with that of Pamela.
And to think of the millions killed in WW1&2 who died fighting for democracy and freedom of speech. Together with the millions of non-muslims who’ve been murdered over the 1,400 yrs of the depraved history of islam.

Arthur says
Try Googling “Kalid Kosher Biography”! All you get is the propaganda about how he’s an expert on international migration, human trafficking, etc. On this page
https://www.brookings.edu/experts/khalid-koser/
his education is listed as
Education
Ph.D., University College London, 1993
B.A., University of Cambridge, 1990
I searched University of College London’s library for theses in 1993 and Kosar and found no thesis.
https://ucl-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/primo-explore/search?vid=UCL_VU2&mode=advanced&sortby=rank
By contrast, visiting the public alumni page
http://www.ucl.ac.uk/philosophy/alumni/alumni-directory/1990-1999
it is possible to confirm that theses from other students around that time exist in the catalog. Not surprisingly, Khalid Kosar does not appear on the alumni list.
Considering that the UCL has opened a branch in Qatar in 2012, there are clear ties between the UCL and Qatar. Was Khalid Kosar “awarded” his PhD administratively at the request of the Qatari government? Is his “expertise” nothing more than a fiction created to justify his placement at high levels within the UN? Searching the library catalog, I cannot find any articles written by Khalid Kosar. How does one become an expert in academy without publishing a single paper? (Granted, he may have published in non-indexed sources, but where are the papers?) Is Khalid Kosar a propaganda minister appointed by the Qatari government? Is his educational background a complete fiction?
Why doesn’t anyone do a background check on people these days?!

Joe says
It doesn’t matter. We are suppose to believe in his “education” rather than facts. I noticed that he doesn’t cite facts, he only cites the conclusion that he drew from them. For example, he doesn’t state the difference between domestic and imported terror. He probably thinks that a terrorist who has been in the country for two days is homegrown.
He is also drawing attention away from the problem, Islam. Foreign and domestic terrorists often know how to read Islamic ideology. That is the problem.
Charles says
It seems, more and more, through their totaly inept and incompetent “Leadership”, that Europe will soon slide into yet another 1000 year long Dark Age!
And this massive importation of savages from the 4th (Muslim) World will be the spark and fuel that causes and sustains it!
I guess their only hope now, is a massive Revolt on the part of the few remaining SANE peoples of Europe. But that looks less and less likely with each passing week.
GOOD BY! EUROPE………
CommoHull says
Who is this guy?! I googled him to get some background on him (to see if he could be a Muslim) and there’s nothing. His official bio starts with his graduation from two universities in the late 90’s then goes on to list all the think tanks, foundations, schools, etc. he’s been affiliated with – and the MBE.
For an internationally renowned expert on immigration, I thought for sure there’d be a Wikipedia entry, at least! But nothing. Strange. What’s he hiding?
Jack Diamond says
There is this on his GSPC page (hard to keep up with this guy’s elitist credentials, they’d fill a book):
“He has field experience in Afghanistan, the Balkans, the Horn of Africa, Southern Africa, and Western Europe.” Those would be fascinating to know more about.
Khalid (what exactly is his Islamic background?) is careful to never use the words “Muslim” or “Islam”
in anything I’ve read so far. He also clearly holds “us” ultimately to blame for any problems with the migrant community, and yes, he was awarded an MBE for his “services to asylum-seekers and refugees.” Services he continues to render.
Jaladhi says
He was awarded MBE – it shows how stupid is the British government!!
Jack Diamond says
He is a dual national Pakistani in the UK. His Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund attempts to “break the cycle of radicalization” (among Muslims) in various Islamic hell holes. It attempts to break the “cycle” by giving people money for schools, sports clubs etc. which will prevent “extremism” by giving youth something better to do. The call of Islam with something even better to do, is never addressed. Why someone who is Muslim would be drawn to terrorism (aka jihad) under any circumstances, even if they lack a sports club, is not addressed. Feeling displaced and hopeless are the reasons “a few” turn to radicalization, according to Khalid Koser.
He says, if “we” fail to integrate people properly, if we displace, return, “anger” refugees and migrants, if we give in to “Islamophobia”, we then risk them turning to extremism. Muslim refugees/migrants that is, no explanation why this wouldn’t apply to non-Muslim migrants.
As always, it is our own fault if it happens.
In this video he admits to being a British Muslim. There is your answer. If you can bear the victimology narrative of interviewer and interviewee:

CommoHull says
Well, that explains it. Thanks, Jack!
Westman says
Dr. Khalid Koser, puffed-up Master Of The Universe, was recently seen in Europe waving a paper, personally signed by Allah, declaring that the importing of Islam will cause, “peace in our time”. There was a mysterious set of letters next to Allah’s signature, “W.I.D.” Experts are still trying to determine its meaning.
Voytek Gagalka says
“Third world migrants have ‘greatly helped’ economies in Europe…”
By what means? By issuing hefty welfare checks (a.k.a. Jizyah hand-outs) to those said migrants? Perhaps only under standards of Keynesian economics, where spending is considered as “growing” (economy), where production is completely divorced from economy and not counted as a grow, exactly as much as leftist ideology and practice is divorced from reality and thus considered as “progress.”
jewdog says
No, the thing that will really make Europe more secure is for everyone to either recite the Shehada or pay the jizya, and then acquiesce in the imposition of Sharia. That’s what’s on the horizon, so you might as well get it over with. Think of it as preemptive dhimmitude.
WPM says

He probably meant home groomed.
