The Dangers Ahead in Afghani Mass Resettlement

A policy that was ill-advised in one period can be catastrophic in another. Judging from President Biden and his administration’s performance, it’s clear they’ve learned nothing in the past 25 years. Only now, the stakes are higher than ever.
The fateful events of 9-11 were followed by one news story after another telling an incredulous America about the dysfunction in America’s immigration controls. 9-11 hijackers had overstayed visas, obtained multiple driver’s licenses and engaged in all manner of activities inconsistent with the terms of their original admissions to the U.S., and yet no one had flagged their unlawful presence. Additionally, schools enrolled students without proper verification of status.
Similarly, in 1993, Ramzi Yousef (who bombed the World Trade Center the first time) came legally through the U.S.-Canada border although flags had been raised in Dubai regarding his terror connections. Agencies charged with intelligence sharing failed to communicate with one another.
