We should not allow individuals dedicated to overthrowing our constitutional system of government to come here. Our immigration procedures and policies should guarantee that we are not importing tribal hatreds and that most ancient of evils, anti-Semitism.
Polls show that significant percentages of Muslims around the world adhere to radical beliefs that are contrary to our concept of freedom. Many harbor anti-Semitic attitudes and buy in to conspiracy theories about who attacked us on 9/11.
We know that we already have a problem with radical Islam in this country. Minneapolis, of all places, is a hotbed of jihadi recruitment. Yet record numbers of Muslims are coming into the country every year due to our immigration and refugee policies.
I raise this issue again because recent headlines demand our attention.
Posters appeared Tuesday on a university campus in England with the caption "Hitler Was Right."
Earlier this week, it was reported that German intelligence officials are alarmed by what they are seeing in the so-called "refugee crisis." A high-level intelligence report warned, "We are importing Islamic extremism, Arab anti-Semitism, national and ethnic conflicts of other peoples as well as a different societal and legal understanding."
Unfortunately, the political left doesn't seem to be paying any attention. Some politicians are demanding that we let hundreds of thousands of Muslim refugees into the country.
Common sense suggests we should consider a freeze on Muslim immigration while opening our doors to Middle East Christians, who are facing what can only be described as genocide.
