U.S. May Help bin Laden's Family Relocate Here?!



I can only pray that Obama and the State Department are not this idiotic.

Apparently, Omar bin Laden (son of Osama bin Laden, the most wanted terrorist in the world) is stranded in Iran and is seeking refuge. And who is coming to his rescue? Yup — the United States.

A son of Osama bin Laden said about 20 members of his family stranded in Iran are seeking sanctuary in a third country and that the U.S. may agree to accept them.
Omar bin Laden, the al-Qaeda leader’s fourth son, said in an interview with Al Arabiya television that Iran is refusing to allow his relatives to go to Saudi Arabia.
Shiite Muslim- dominated Iran is a regional rival of Sunni-ruled Saudi Arabia. Al-Qaeda, a Sunni group, is hostile to Iran.
“The Americans offered to help them out of Iran and even hinted at the possibility of receiving them in the U.S.,” he said in the interview, which was aired late yesterday and posted on the Dubai-based channel’s website.
Omar bin Laden said none of his brothers has been accused of terrorism by the U.S. or any other country.
The elder bin Laden’s relatives held under house arrest in Iran include five of his children and one of his wives, Al Arabiya said.
The family had been living in Afghanistan and fled to Iran after the U.S. military began air strikes on the country following the Sept. 11 attacks in 2001.
The idea that this is even being considered is outrageous. If this is allowed to happen, the outrage over SB 1070 and the mosque at Ground Zero will sound like minor grumblings of miscontent.

The idea that we would welcome the family of the founder of al-Qaeda — the organization responsible for the 9/11 attacks that killed almost 3,000 innocent civilians — is so horrific that it’s beyond comprehension.

Omar bin Laden has admitted that he received training in al-Qaeda camps beginning at the age of 14. He says he left al-Qaeda at the age of 20 because he objected to killing civilians — but does he condemn the actions of al-Qaeda? Does he object to other members of al-Qaeda killing civilians? Would he help smooth the way for an al-Qaeda terrorist to kill civilians?

We’re talking about a man who refuses to criticize his father, the son of a murderer and a terrorist, and the son of the founder of an organization that we are at war with.
How could we possibly even consider, even for just a moment, letting any member of Osama bin Laden’s family come to the United States?

It is lunacy, and — it shouldn’t even need to be said — it seriously endangers homeland security.
Why can’t the geniuses in our state department figure this out? The thought that this is even being considered, even fleetingly, is so mind-blowingly stupid that it makes me sick.

Note:
Within the last 48 hours there has been a show of shock, disbelief and outrage over the possibility of allowing bin Laden's family using the United States as a place of refuge.  Not a peep out of any of America's newspapers or media - so far, not even Fox News has covered this story.

Do we wait until Obama rolls out the red carpet for the very family that took part in attacking the United States on Sept. 11th?  Do our men in the fields of battle lay down their arms and come home to an America that has put a huge sign over the Statue of Liberty that simply says, "KICK ME"?  

For America to allow a mosque representing the terrorist's ideology to be built at Ground Zero; to even consider allowing this Islamic terrorist family to find refuge in the land represents "Live, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness" is murdering the very treasures America once held so dear and giving in to the enemy.

If America still stands for "Freedom" than we must stand up and demand our leaders stop acting insane!  Stop asking "Can't we all get along?" to the families of terrorist and start having the courage to know when to draw the line - when to stop the madness!  No, we can't all get along; not yet and certainly not while there are groups such as Hamas, Hizbollah, Iranian madmen and nations who stand with these madmen, ready to slaughter all peoples who represent democracy.

America, you have not reached a Dead End - not yet!  Let your "mis"-representatives in Washington know how you feel and what you expect of them - before America dies from the lack of courage and consistency.
