No surprise there.  There is no evidence they are terrorists, is there?  They want asylum.

The 8 Syrians were a family- 2 couples and their 4 children each, who approached immigration and asked for refuge.  You would do anything you could to save your life and the lives of your children if you were in the same situation.

You would think we've never had defectors come to this country.  We've got two presidential candidates who wouldn't be here if their parents didn't come to the US for asylum.

The linked reports come across as pure fearmongering. Really, two couples and kids, and they made it sound like terrorists.

A tragedy is a HUGE, HUGE, HUGE money-maker for all media.

 

Lots of ratings.

Lots of advertisers.

this reminds me of something i have read today......and something that has been mentioned on other threads.

 

 

via facebook:

 

To those who say they don't see enough Muslims in US media condemning ISIS, I agree. Ask CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, ABC, NBC, etc. why they won't have us on. We are LITERALLY begging them to let us on air. But ISIS gets ratings, we don't.

CNN has had an official Muslim woman rep on numerous times, she's pretty good.  Also an older male Muslim, but I've seen more of her.

I don't know about this case specifically but terrorist do use women and children. They have video that they themselves have put out of training as young as three year olds. Yesterday it was a woman who tried to trick the police by yelling help and then detonating her suicide vest. So women and children is no guarantee anymore. And the fake passport is not something an innocent person would use. These are just my opinions and Thinking out loud. 

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.

That is what I'd call family values. Doing what you have to do to keep your loved ones safe. God bless them.

Although I do think the news people take advantage of such incidents, overall, I think we need a lot of information available to us.

 

I believe danger of this type is on the rise now.  We need to be very informed and vigilant.  I wouldn't change my life, because there's probably no point, but we should be paying attention.
