Article from former 25 year veteran of State Dept, a refugee coordinator. In Chicago Trib:
"As a recently retired 25-year veteran of the U.S. Department of State who served almost eight years as a refugee coordinator throughout the Middle East, Africa, Russia and Cuba, I have seen first-hand the abuses and fraud that permeate the refugee program and know about the entrenched interests that fight every effort to implement much-needed reform. Despite claims of enhanced vetting, the reality is that it is virtually impossible to vet an individual who has no type of an official record, particularly in countries compromised by terrorism. U.S. immigration officials simply rely on the person’s often rehearsed and fabricated “testimony.” I have personally seen this on hundreds of occasions.

Yes this is one State Dept employee, although an employee with actual experience. And notice the employee says what is common sense, you can't vet someone who has no official record. As I often on here asked, how can you take the word of Syed who is vouching for Mohammed?
Are there still people on here who think the vetting was ok?
