Atlantic writer knows
refugees are lying and so do those charged with admitting them, by Ann
Corcoran 3/20/18
But we continue to admit them anyway—to
America and to Europe.
Thanks to reader Paul for sending this unnecessarily long article in the April issue of The Atlantic by
author Graeme Wood.
I don’t know why it takes so many words
to confirm that yes, many lie, that this is an invasion, that the at-once
diabolical and gullible Lefties are driving it, and so what if Germany is now
seriously screening the migrants. Is that comforting to know? No! It is too
late for dear Deutschland!
That said, I do hope our US screening
process is beefing up as Wood tells us the Germans are.
My question for Germany is this: So you find out they are lying, do you now
have the spine to put them on planes back to the Middle East and Africa (I
doubt it!)? Graeme
Wood at The Atlantic: (Emphasis is mine)
Three years ago [at the height of the Obama Administration —ed], overcome by the squalor of my home, I
decided to hire a cleaner. I scanned Craigslist, feeling a prick of guilt; few
things arouse class angst as reliably as the purchase of domestic help. Then I
remembered another option. Near my
Connecticut home was a refugee-resettlement center. On weekdays, dozens of
recent arrivals loitered there, eager for work. This seemed to offer a solution
to both my squalor and my angst. To pay a Craigslist gig worker felt a little
icky. To pay a refugee—well, that felt magnanimous, almost patriotic. [Clearly Graeme wasn’t reading RRW!—ed]
I wrote to the resettlement center, which sent
me a stack of résumés. Even
the ones from Congolese herders were well formatted and in English—the result,
surely, of polishing by the center’s staff. The stories, I found, made
propulsive reading, despite the outline form. I was tempted to request more
résumés for the understated drama alone. Each was the timeline of a life
interrupted in a distant, volatile land and now picked up, improbably, in a
snowy New England town.
The other trait
distinguishing these résumés was that nearly every one contained what I, as
someone whose job often involves listening skeptically to people’s stories,
would call irregularities, little details that seemed odd, that begged for
explanation.
An Afghan with no formal education
claimed to know a language not spoken in any country she had visited; an
African doctor whose CV could have gotten him a job with the World Health
Organization in a week was working a cash register in Bridgeport. Two refugees
claimed to be from, respectively, Zambia and Tanzania, countries without war or
persecution that could justify asylum. (The refugees had almost certainly
claimed different nationalities in their application for asylum.) Another said
she was from the Democratic Republic of the Congo—a major generator of
refugees—but spoke languages that suggested origin in the now relatively safe
country of Rwanda. It
was as if the center had sent me a dozen jigsaw puzzles, all with either
missing pieces or extra ones.
All of the refugees were qualified to
clean my house. (The doctor was overqualified, and I wondered whether I should
be cleaning his.) But detail
after detail hoisted my eyebrows. An asylum officer had heard each story—or
some variant of it—and judged the claimant credible enough to welcome him into
the United States. For my part, it was hard not to conclude that most of
the stories were shot through with lies.
It is not clear if Wood ever hired any
of them.
Mr. Wood moves on to discuss
Germany…..The new migrants tend to be young and male, and therefore at times
unruly, and the far right has stoked fear of swarthy men’s lust for European
women. But accompanying
the xenophobia are worrisome facts. Two years after the peak of the influx,
more than 80 percent of refugees were jobless, in a general population whose
unemployment rate is 5.5 percent. Successful integration is not assured. [Why is it xenophobic to point out the problems? That is what is wrong
with writers like Mr. Wood. Can’t they just admit that maybe he and his
Leftwing open borders pals are wrong without the virtue-signalling!—ed] LOL! But at least history is not a
stranger to him….
For
those worried about the erosion of German culture, it was evidence that the
Muslim world, having failed to sack Vienna in 1683, is now coming back in a
bum-rush.
He could have quit right there.More here if you have an hour.
Germans (Brits, French, etc.) are
systematically being replaced. It is an invasion. It isn’t first
and foremost about economic migrants vs. real refugees and how government
authorities can tell one from the other.
That is what Austrian Martin Sellner tried to tell the good citizens of the UK a
couple of days ago.
It is about the Hijra—-the Islamic doctrine of conquest via
migration!
Mr. Wood goes on to laboriously describe
how Germany is now trying to throw off the invasion
fears with a typically German bureaucratic paper-pushing vetting process which
I hope is being employed at our Department of Homeland Security because it is
still not too late for us!

extending back for nearly ten years is here.
