After State Dept “Glitch,” Millions of Muslims Could Get Green Cards, Citizenship

By Debbie Schlussel

More moronism from Hillary Clinton’s State Department . . . and it could bring tens of thousands more–and possibly millions more–Muslim aliens into the U.S. who shouldn’t be here.  AND give them citizenship.

Affirmative Action Immigration for America’s Enemies

As you probably know, the U.S. government holds a lottery for green cards for would-be immigrants from countries that are “under-represented” in immigration to the U.S.  This means that mostly Muslims–from the Middle East, Asia, and Africa–have the vast advantage for the 50,000 spots granted from the lottery.  You only need look at citizenship swearing-in ceremonies in any major city in America to see the majority of the room is Muslim.  It’s a ridiculous program.  I call it affirmative action for America’s enemies.  Look at the graphic, below, of who is applying for the spots:  four of the top five countries from which applicants come are Muslim or on their way there:  Bangladesh (Muslim), Nigeria (50% Muslim with jihad going on every single day), Ukraine (not Muslim, but has a sizeable Muslim community, including the family of HAMAS’ top “rocket scientist”), Ethiopia (about 34% Muslim and growing), and Egypt (Muslim).    The program, by the way, was enacted by George H.W. Bush, yet another one of his disastrous pan-Arabist contributions to America.  And his son, George W., is the one who ramped up the program to include mostly Muslims after 9/11, ‘cuz–you know–that “will make them like us better.”  Thanks, Bushies.  And, sorry, NO, I don’t miss him yet.
The green card lottery is administered by the State Department, which screwed the whole thing up, last month.  In early May, the State Department sent written notice to 22,000 applicants that they’d been chosen in the lottery and would be granted green cards.  But it was a mistake.  The computer picked mostly people who applied only in the first two days of the program.  Since then, the State Department has informed these people they were punked and must be entered into the lottery again.
But there’s a legal problem.  The government sent these people letters–yup, notice IN WRITING–saying they were in.  A written notice, promise, or commitment like that is usually legally binding and cannot be revoked.  Most of the people that got these letters were from the Middle East and Africa a/k/a Muslims.  And an immigration lawyer is already preparing to sue on their behalf.  Sadly, I think they have a very good legal case . . .  all because we leave our borders and immigration policy up to a computer lottery and affirmative action for our enemies.  It’s absurd, but true.  And I think these 22,000 mostly Muslims might win such a suit, and if they do, everyone else in the lottery–15 million mostly-Muslim green-card seekers will have grounds for suit and a good case, too, that they were treated unfairly. Potentially 15 million mostly-Muslim immigrants could gain entrance and green cards.  And even if we only include the 22,000 and still hold the lottery for the 50,000, that’s 72,000 largely Muslim aliens we admit into our borders and to whom we grant green cards and ultimate citizenship, with no adequate way to check who they are (and spending on average less than five minutes per alien to even perform that waste-of-time check).

The State Department’s Inspector General is reviewing the government’s green-card lottery after this year’s results were scratched and thousands of people who had been told they won a chance for a U.S. resident visa were later notified they would have to re-enter the drawing.
A record 15 million people from around the world submitted entries to the so-called diversity visa program lottery, which each year offers a quick path to permanent U.S. residence for 50,000 people selected by random draw.
Under the lottery program, visas are made available to applicants from countries with low rates of immigration to the U.S. Lottery winners have a chance at moving to the U.S. without a family member or an employer as a sponsor, the most common routes to obtaining a green card.
In early May, the State Department notified 22,000 people that they were chosen. But soon after, the State Department said the electronic draw would have to be held again because a computer glitch caused 90% of the winners to be selected from the first two days of applications instead of the entire 30-day registration period.
Disappointed applicants, who hail from the Middle East, Africa and Europe, created a Facebook page dubbed “22,000 Tears” and began collecting signatures for letters to the State Department and U.S. lawmakers in protest.
Kenneth White, an immigration attorney in Los Angeles, contacted the State Department in mid-May requesting that the 22,000 winners be allowed to go forward with their applications and that a second drawing be held for the remaining slots, arguing it would still be a random drawing.
“We have asked the Department of State to honor its commitment, made in writing, to all those who were selected for further processing,” said Mr. White in an interview. “Thousands of people were devastated by the news of the invalidation.”
On Friday, Mr. White received an email from Erich O. Hart, the general counsel for the Office of Inspector General of the State Department. “The Department has asked the Office of Inspector General to review the Diversity Visa Lottery matter and we have agreed to do so,” said the email which was seen by The Wall Street Journal.
An official with bureau of consular affairs, which administers the program, said Sunday, “We would certainly work closely with the OIG if there is a review.”
David Donahue, a Deputy Assistant Secretary of State who oversees the program, said the original draw was voided because it “did not represent a fair, random selection of entrants as required by U.S. law,” according to a State Department website.

Like I said, stay tuned for the lawsuits, with lawyer Kenneth White and others leading the charge to open the porous borders wide open. This is a disaster in waiting.
This one is on Hillary Clinton’s doorstep.  Hers and Barack Obama’s.  The Bushes made this absurd program what it is–a Muslim immigration vehicle.  And Hillary and Barack screwed it up even further.
