Radio Derb Is On The Air: Gulf War Three And Muslim Immigration, Etc.

This week’s title piece ponders what is beginning to look like Gulf War Three:

So thirteen years of war in Iraq and Afghanistan, trillions of dollars, and thousands of U.S. military fatalities, left us with the Middle East in chaos and dire, immediate terrorist threats against our civilian airplanes. Is it time maybe we should try something else?
For a clue as to the kind of thing we might try, check out this latest report from the Center for Immigration Studies.

In the period from 2010 to 2013, says the report, we took in nearly 300,000 immigrants from predominantly Muslim countries.

What would have been wrong with a smaller number — say, zero?

Here’s Steven Camarota, co-author of the report:

“All of that does raise national security concerns, and I don’t think there has been any consideration of that … The primary threat from a group like ISIS to the homeland is through our immigration system … No one’s suggesting that they’re going to launch a missile and hit New York, but rather they’re going to board an airliner and blow it up. They’re going to park a car in a public place, they’re going to go on a shooting spree, or any one of those things.

“Our immigration system is a vital part of national security. Everybody doesn’t seem to recognize that. The question is, what are the implications of our rapidly growing Middle Eastern population? The numbers certainly raise it.” [Study: Mideast Immigrants to US Pose Huge Security Threat by Todd Beamon, Newsmax, September 25th.]
They certainly do. But gosh, restrict Muslim immigration? That would be racist. So … bombs away!

The full Radio Derb playbill:

Holder returns to His People. (From the Department of Justice for Them.)
Holistic individualized consideration (cont.) (A possible replacement.)
The GOP wishes you Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! (New Jersey GOP to immigration skeptics: Drop dead.)
Our other underclass. (Not the new Italians.)
Carbon dioxide is good for you! (Glaciers, a climate skeptic, a march.)
Gulf War Three? (Bombs away! … or else we might have to control immigration.)
They’d walk a mile for a camel. (Smoke ’em if you’ve got ’em, Iraqis.)
A deeply non-pressing issue. (Rehabilitating Pluto.)
GOP, gun, foot. (Someone please put them out of their misery.)
Mayoral politics claims a victim. (Communist takes New York, rodents hardest hit.)
Double-entendre of the week. (Better from the back.)

It’s all there at Taki’s Magazine.
