Assad: There are 'definitely' terrorists among Syrian refugees


Posted: Feb 10, 2017

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad claims in a new interview that there are "definitely" terrorists among the Syrian refugees displaced by his country's civil war. “You can find it on the net. The same picture that you saw them, in some cases ... those terrorists in Syria, holding the machine gun or killing people, they are peaceful refugees in Europe or in the West," Assad said during an interview with Yahoo News published on Thursday. When asked about how many terrorists could also be posing as refugees, Assad maintained that no one knows the exact statistics. "Nobody knows, because nobody knows any terrorists to give a percentage," he told the publication. The Syrian president also underscored that “you don’t need a significant number to commit atrocities.” Assad pointed to the 9/11 attacks, stating that they were committed by fewer than 20 terrorists out of "millions of immigrants in the United States." "So it’s not about the number, it’s about the quality, it’s about the intentions,” he argued. Assad also commented on the President Trump's position on drastically limiting the inflow of refugees into the U.S. "I am not American to justify it, only as American people would say this is against the interests of the United States or [in their] interest," he said. "I can only speak as president, for me the priority is to bring those citizens to their country, not to help them immigrate." Trump says his executive order halting the flow of Syrian refugees is necessary because of the possibility of terrorists among their ranks, though critics have pointed out that Syrians haven't been behind any successful strikes against the U.S. in recent years.;

Well sure, there are bound to be some terrorists hiding among the refugees. That's why we vet them so thoroughly before allowing them to immigrate.

The process can take as long as two years, because there are so many double- and triple-checks built into it.

We're not just saying "Oh you poor dear, you look so forlorn, here's a plane ticket, please move immediately to the US", after all.

And since when do we listen to him? - anonon

He is the expert on committing atrocities though isn't he? While it may be true that some of the terrorists could be hidden in among the refugees and we may not separate them all, I can't in good conscience say that none of those poor people should not come here to start over and get away from that mass murderer in their own country. Terrorists can come from anywhere. Perfect examples: Timothy McVeigh, James Von Brunn, Jared Loughner, Daniel Cowart, Ted Kaczynski... all white, all terrorists, ALL AMERICAN BORN.

Exactly, getting in bed with the Russians means - getting in bed with Assad

Like Putin is. Assad himself is a terrorist who has killed his own subjects and is not to be trusted. He is responsible in great part for the many refugees pouring out of the borders - their choice is to fight for him or Isis, and of course neither is anything but appalling to most Syrians, so they flee with their families.

Russia warned us of the Tsarnaev brothers. - And we did not listen.

Assad is warning us about the Syrian refugees.

What does Assad have to lose by warning us of these terrorists?

Think about it or do something. Case closed.
Of course he is warning about - "terrorists"

He wants them back there fighting for him!

Does anyone recall that President Obama wanted to declare war on Syria way back when it was proved Assad had murdered his own people? But of course congress would never approve it.

Assad is not to be trusted.
