And. how can we even think about bringing Iraqi soldiers to our shores in light of the current state of military hostilities between our two countries? Just yesterday. the Foreign Affairs Committee held a hearing on how Iraq Is rebuilding its military industrial complex. Including weapons of mass destruction. How do we know that there isnt a revolutionary cell among these Iraqi refugees? Who will take responsibility if any of these Iraqis commit a criminal act? I will not stand by and watch this abuse of the taxpayers trust. With a $300 billion deficit and a $4.2 trillion debt. I would think the resettling Iraqi exsoldiers and their families would be at the bottom of the priority list for the Federal Government.
