The aftermath of that effort has done more to empower ISIS. It not only drew people to the movement. but we created a space where they can operate. grow. and lash out at us. Now we hear what can only be described as crazy talk in the Republican Presidential primaries not just about sealing the borders. but having a religious test for refugees fleeing terror. Remember. the 9111 attackers did not sneak across the borders. but exploited weaknesses in our visa system. Even in Europe. it appears that most of the people involved with the attack did not sneak in. hidden with Syrian refugees. They were actually people already in Europe. radicalized and moving freely about. It is appropriate to be concerned. angry. and determined to protect innocent people. to hunt down and eliminate these horrific threats.
