New Jersey: Muslim migrant indicted for smuggling Muslim from Afghanistan who was deemed a security threat into US

Aug 13, 2019 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Todd Bensman at the Center for Immigration Studies notes: “Of special significance in the case is the allegation that one of the Afghans whose smuggling Saify is alleged to have successfully arranged was an interpreter fired from U.S. Army employment as a security threat and who had been denied one of the special immigrant visas on that basis.”

Here is yet more evidence that the border issue is a national security issue. The Left and the establishment media, however, will ignore this and continue to charge all those who support border controls with “racism.”

“Afghanistan National and Former U.S. Military Interpreter Charged for Role in Human Smuggling Conspiracy,” US Department of Justice, August 2, 2019:

NEWARK, N.J. – An Afghani citizen and United States Lawful Permanent Resident was indicted today by a federal grand jury for his role in a scheme to smuggle undocumented aliens from Afghanistan to the United States.

U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito of the District of New Jersey, Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, Special Agent in Charge Anthony Salisbury of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Miami, and Special Agent in Charge Brian Michael of HSI Newark, made the announcement.

Mujeeb Rahman Saify, 32, is an Afghanistan national who received a Special Immigrant Visa and became a U.S. Lawful Permanent Resident in 2009, after serving as an interpreter for the U.S. military in Afghanistan.  Since 2009, Saify has resided in New York and Newark. Saify was charged in the District of New Jersey with conspiracy to smuggle aliens to the United States, encouraging and inducing alien smuggling, and attempting to bring aliens to the United States.  If convicted, Saify faces a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, as well as forfeiture.

According to the indictment, between July 2016 through February 2017, Saify conspired with members of an Afghanistan and Pakistan-based smuggling network to smuggle two Afghanistan nationals to the United States.  The Afghanistan nationals did not have prior authorization to enter the United States and one had been denied a U.S. visa.  The indictment alleges that Saify made contact with the aliens and arranged meetings with the co-conspirators to discuss smuggling arrangements.  Further, according to the indictment, Saify received payment, gave instructions to the aliens to facilitate the smuggling venture, and he used email and phone communications to facilitate and coordinate the criminal operation….

    Why do folks from New Jersey have hunched shoulders and flattened faces?

    Because when you ask them what’s wrong with Islam,
    they will shrug their shoulders…

    And when you tell them the answer by showing them reports from
    Jihad Watch, Creeping Shari’a and from thereligionofpeace.com
    they will take their hand and slap their foreheads as if they should’ve
    “had a V-8” !!!

    ………………….

    Glad this was caught. But how many more situations are there just like this? End Muslim immigration into teh West. It is down 90% in the US–but obviously could still be better.

    This is an example of blue on green Afghani attacks on Americans. This time brought home. The phrase comes from the Afghan soldiers we trained who wore blue uniforms; would did sneak attacks on the American soldiers who trained them. We wore green of course. This is an example of Islamic gratitude.

    Historic lesson often repeated. No one has been able to tame Afghanistan . When Alexander tried it he had to marry a local princess just so he could leave.
