And then there were the five Syrian men caught in Honduras — 5 Comments

  1. If they’re not on a terrorist watch list, there’s no way to determine that they aren’t jihadists. Any claim that they’ve been vetted is a lie. ‘Vetting’ can only identify KNOWN terrorists & terrorist sympathizers.

  2. How does dhs vet anyone coming out of Syria, Libya, Chad, Sudan, Afghanistan, Yemen, etc.? Phone call, email, or fax? Or perhaps a forged document? Give me a #$%ing break.

  3. Bush II’s Iraq intel and Gitmo interrogations were what gave America the edge in terms of finding terror networks before they even infiltrated countries.

    That source has been cut off since 2009 at least.

  4. Could we not try to go after the forgers of such documents? I wonder if that would help, at least in the mid- to longer-term. Or what are all those vaunted anti-forgery tricks in the new banknotes and so on for, if it’s still so relatively easy to forge papers? I know, fake Bennies are one thing and fake passports another, but still.

    This whole subject of the prevalence of false papers among the migrants has had me thinking of the detailed and critical role played by forgery in Forsyth’s Day of the Jackal. I re-read it for fun on occasion. Not to mention the fact that the novel puts the equally important black-market arms dealer in… Brussels!

  5. Could we not try to go after the forgers of such documents?

    They’re the TUrks. Meaning, it’s a nation state backing them.
