Letting in the
Wrong Refugees
By Michelle Malkin
Sep 19, 2014
Fresh terror busts in Australia expose a common Achilles' heel of the
West: Indiscriminate refugee policies turn free countries into breeding
grounds for jihad. It's the same game in America. Soldiers of Islam
have weaponized our blind generosity against us.
In Sydney this week, authorities detained a half-dozen Muslim plotters
and arrested a top collaborator in an alleged conspiracy to kidnap and
behead a random Australian citizen. The accused mastermind? Afghan
refugee turned Aussie Islamic State recruiter Mohammad Ali Baryalei. He
and his aristocratic family were welcomed Down Under decades ago.
Baryalei returned the favor by taking to the streets of Sydney to
recruit and radicalize dozens of fellow Muslim immigrants or their
children.
Baryalei's minions include Australian jihadist Khaled Sharrouf, the
homicidal son of Lebanese immigrants. Sharrouf is now based in Syria,
where he infamously tweeted a photo of his elementary school-age son
brandishing a severed human head.
The Sydney Beheading Bust comes on the heels of a separate outbreak of
violence by Afghan refugees aligned with the terror group Hezbollah. In
late August, Aussie police broke up a bloody riot involving members of
the "420 gang" -- Muslim teenage boys and young men who post
sword-wielding, AK-47-toting selfies on social media. The
self-described "Shia soldiers" quote Hezbollah militant imam Hassan
Nasrallah online, while wreaking havoc in Sydney slums offline.
International "human rights" wags have attacked Australian officials
for trying to crack down on unfettered immigration from
terror-sponsoring states. Now, many of those ungrateful imports are
crying "Islamophobia" as law enforcement authorities try to stop the
head-choppers from spilling blood on their soil.
Australia, we feel your pain. America's unselective and desultory
asylum and refugee policies have also enabled jihadists of all stripes
and blades to recruit, convert, plot, pillage, rape and kill.
In our heartland, Minneapolis has become "Little Mogadishu" -- a haven
for Somali refugees targeted by Islamic supremacists. It's a deadly
two-way street. As former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy noted in
"The Grand Jihad," "We not only import Somali aliens, including their
'traditional leaders.' We also send back aspiring Islamist militants,
including suicide bombers. Since 2006, the FBI has detected that many
Somalis are returning to fight on behalf of al-Shabaab, and more are
launched from Minneapolis than from any other U.S. haven."
