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

New York subway jihad bomber came to US via chain migration

Dec 11, 2017 5:49 pm By Robert Spencer

Another program that should be ended immediately. There will be the usual howls of “racism,” but how many people must die in jihad massacres before officials stop falling for that?

“DHS: Suicide-Bomb Suspect Arrived by Chain Migration,” by John Binder, Breitbart News, December 11, 2017:

The terror suspect who allegedly attempted to detonate a suicide-bomb in New York came to the United States from Bangladesh as a “chain migration” relative of an individual who had immigrated earlier into the United States.

In October, President Donald Trump called for an end to this “chain migration” process in his immigration principles.

On Monday 27-year-old Akayed Ullah, a Bangladesh national, injured three individuals when he allegedly tried to detonate a suicide bomb in New York City in a planned terrorist attack.

Ullah, as confirmed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), entered the U.S. in 2011 as a chain migrant.

Under “chain migration,” new immigrants to the U.S. are allowed to bring an unlimited number of poorly-screened foreign relatives with them, creating a never-ending flow of immigration from some terror-ridden countries.

Ullah came to the U.S. through the F43 visa, allowing him to obtain a Green Card simply because his father’s brother or sister had recently been naturalized as a U.S. citizen. This process is known as “extended-family chain migration.”

Trump has repeatedly demanded an end to chain migration, saying “Chain migration is a disaster for this country and it’s horrible.”

As Breitbart News reported, more than 140,000 Bangladeshi nationals — larger than the population of Dayton, Ohio — have entered the United States since 2005 for no other reason than to reunite with extended family members.

  • 8,508 Bangladeshi nationals entered U.S. in 2005 as chain migrants
  • 9,936 entered in 2006
  • 7,765 entered in 2007
  • 7,795 entered in 2008
  • 12,974 entered in 2009
  • 11,407 entered in 2010
  • 13,136 entered in 2011
  • 13,379 entered in 2012
  • 11,346 entered in 2013
  • 14,170 entered in 2014
  • 13,034 entered in 2015
  • 18,051 entered in 2016
  • Since 2005, 141,501 Bangladeshi nationals have entered U.S. as chain migrants

This is the second time in three months that a foreign-born suspected terrorist entered the U.S. through an immigration program that Trump has called for the end to.

Another suspected ISIS-inspired New York City terrorist, Uzbek national 29-year-old Sayfullo Saipov who is accused of murdering at least eight individuals, entered the U.S. in 2010 by winning one of the 50,000 visas randomly allotted every year under the Diversity Visa Lottery.

The Visa Lottery dolls out 50,000 visas annually to foreign nationals from a multitude of countries. The countries include those with terrorist problems, including Afghanistan, Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Syria, Trinidad and Tobago, Venezuela, Yemen, and Uzbekistan.

Trump most recently slammed the visa lottery, saying:

We want a system that is merit-based. They come in on merit, they don’t come in on a lottery system. How about the lottery system? Folks did you see that? That’s the guy in New York City. The lottery system where they put names in a bin… so what they do, I would say but more than just say, they take their worst and they put them in the bin and then when they pick the lottery, they have the real worst in their hands… and we end up getting them.

No more lottery system. We’re going to end that. We’ve already started the process.

We want people coming into our country who love our people, support our economy and embrace our values. It’s time to get our priorities straight.

About 9.3 million foreign nationals have come to the U.S. as chain migrants between 2005 and 2016, Breitbart News reported. In that same time period, a total of 13.06 million foreign nationals have entered the U.S. through the legal immigration system, as every seven out of 10 new arrivals come to the country for nothing other than family reunification….

    What genius decided that all members of an extended are equally sane and responsible human beings? Nobody has crazy cousins or criminal uncles anymore? I want names. I want to know whom to mock and whom to pillory. I bet they have degrees in social “science” or anthropology. I bet none of them have to take a bus to work.

    We need to end immigration for 30 years tops. We also need to deport all illegal aliens and visa lottery winners. Migrants that Obama let in also must go.

    Well, alas the global jihad is upon us here in the good ol’ USA.

    Western Civilization, unbeknownst only to the dhimmest of dhimwhit deniers about the scope and magnitude of the jihad threat, is obviously under siege everywhere, and seemingly so in just the last few years.

    We must cut back seriously the importing of muslims en masse to America by pinching off “refugee” resettlement, “asylum” immigration & visa lottery programs, place a moratorium on new mosque construction, and begin monitoring VERY CLOSELY the mosques that do exist; requiring by law that all official mosque discourse & literature, and most importantly sermons, are conducted and disseminated in English only, as well as begin citizenship revocation and deportation by means of enemy combatant designation of those imams and individuals who threaten America, and start figuring out how to drive islam out of America,

    These things need to happen soon, or we are going to be seeing a lot more of these types of attacks, as well as the islamization and gradual subjugation of our society here, until there is eventually open paramilitary warfare in the streets, which is exactly the direction our Western European allies are headed.

    Go ahead and laugh: People scoffed and laughed at such notions only a few years ago in France, Sweden, Belgium, Norway, the Netherlands, and England only a few years ago… Now look at them.

    Islam has no place in America or anywhere in the West.

    The sooner we realize this, the sooner we can stop this grand betrayal and save a future for our children and grandchildren here in America; one free from a life of the warfare, oppression, misogyny and misery islam brings with it everywhere it spreads.

    STOP THE HIJRA

    Ok, now we know it was chain migration. When will it be dissected to the core? Who was the first in this chain? Where did the infection start and how far does the rot go? Im betting lottery.

    ……………………..

    Yes, President Trump has vowed to end chain migration. I hope he does.

      Yes, I heard that- Great news!
      I’ve been reading some other good things that hopefully yield some good results:
      DJT has pulled us out of the Global Compact on Migration: Perhaps something good will come of this.
      Other rumblings here and there about Somali deportations, etc…
      Cross your fingers!

    Any sane person would tell you that they would much rather put up with bigotry or racism over death and destruction. The prejudice charge is wearing thin.

    The numbers are staggering…over 22 MILLION immigrants in 11 years means a population that is 3 million MORE than the entire population of the state of NY! Those type of numbers suggest REPLACEMENT of our population as opposed to the supplementation that our Democrat party would like us to believe.

    We should have chain deportation and deport the entire extended family of the bomber.

    Everybody has deadbeat relatives, and in violent societies, many have terrorist or criminal relatives, including patriots who have served the U.S. as translators or spies. Better to help them get these relatives to third countries, as it is cheaper than dealing with them in the U.S. and also makes a good reward for those who have served the U.S. and want to help family.

      There is simply no legal or logical reason to bring these Muslims here. On top of the threats they pose, the US still pays staggering amounts of foreign aid to their home countries.

    Why?
    Why are these evil, VICIOUS turds, still allowed to just float past customes! Right into the U.S.A.?
    How far could I get (a white Christians) trying to live off the dole in any muslim country??????

    Its time to suspend all immigration into the USA until we can better screen who is trying to come here. Mass immigration is a threat to the national security of the USA. We are letting the fox into the hen house.
