Is Obama Opening Floodgates To Hamas?

Is Obama Opening Floodgates To Hamas?

Two weeks ago President Obama issued a little-noticed presidential memorandumthat has profound ramifications for our national security.

Under the Migration and Refugee Assistance Act of 1962, President Obamaauthorized $20.3 million to aid Palestinian refugees in the Gaza Strip, whichincludes aid to help them “migrate.”

Given that Arab countries in the Middle East don’t want the Palestinianssettling in their countries, Obama’s action begs an obvious question: Wherewill these Palestinian “refugees” migrate to? Since tens of thousands of Muslimrefugees have gained expedited entry to the U.S. over the past few years underour refugee acts, it is not unreasonable to assume that at least some of thesePalestinians will end up migrating…here.

Who are these people? Let’s not forget that the Palestinians elected theterrorist organization Hamas to govern them. Observers of the culture of theGaza Strip describe it as a culture of hate and a breeding ground forterrorism. You may recall the video we emailed you last month showingPalestinian children being trained to be terrorists and used as human shields.

The article below asks the question, “What security measures are in place tokeep Hamas terrorists from gaining free access into the U.S.?”

We would take that a step further. What security measures could possibly besufficient to ensure that every Palestinian “refugee” who migrates to the U.S.is not a Hamas terrorist, or at least a Hamas sympathizer?

$20.3 Million to aid refugees

Obama opening floodgates by inviting Hamas to“migrate” to the U.S.A.?

Onhis first official day in the White House, President Barack Obama was on thehorn to President Mahmoud Abbas.

“The spokesman for President Abbas revealed that Mr. Obama had told thePalestinian leader that their conversation was his first with a foreignstatesman since taking office.” (TimesOnLine, Jan. 22, 2009).

Some thought that first call to the leader of the Palestinian authority was forspite. Others for statesman like reasons, still others for appeasement.

Given that a clip from Al-Jazeera televised Hamas-controlled Palestinians“burning up the phone bank from Gaza” to rally support for his presidentialcampaign, perhaps the telephone call was made out of gratitude.

Seven days later on January 27, President Obama signed PresidentialDetermination No. 2009-15, which allocates $20.3 million for Palestinianmigration and refugee assistance.

Today a memo sent by President Obama to Secretary of State Hillary Clintonseems to invite Hamas to “migrate” into the United States of America.

The presidential determination covers the “Unexpected Urgent Refugee andMigration Needs Related to Gaza.”

“By the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of theUnited States, including section 2(c)(1) of the Migration and RefugeeAssistance Act of 1962 (the “Act”), as amended (22 U.S.C. 2601), I herebydetermine, pursuant to section 2 (c) (1) of the Act, that it is important tothe national interest to furnish assistance under the Act in an amount not toexceed $20.3 million from the United States Emergency Refugee and MigrationAssistance Fund for the purpose of meeting unexpected and urgent refugee andmigration needs, including by contributions to international, governmental, andnongovernmental organizations and payment of administrative expenses of Bureauof Population, Refugees, and Migration of the Department of State, related tohumanitarian needs of Palestinian refugees and conflict victims in Gaza.(Italics CFP’s).

“You are authorized and directed to publish this memorandum in the FederalRegister,” President Obama instructs the new Secretary of State.

Two days before Obama’s inauguration, Israel began pulling its troops out ofGaza.

One week after his inauguration, President Obama designated $20.3 million tothe Palestinians in Gaza.
