Quote:Given the fact that you have an inordinate opportunity for infiltration, we also have to consider the demographic composition of the "refugees."  right now we believe that roughly 80% are MILITARY AGE MALES.  let that sink in a minute before you respond.  This isn't a normal contingent of women and children who just need food and water.  This has all the markings of a quiet cultural INVASION.

Do you have a link for that? The only reputable sources I can find say that anywhere from 2-10% of Syrian refugees coming to the US are military-aged males. The highest estimates I'm finding are that 72% might be military-aged males, but those are either being denied requests or sent to countries closer to Syria. I'm calling bullsquat on you here.

 

Quote:Not true. It was expected that nearing the conclusion of the agreement a new SOFA Would be negotiated and the military requested about 24k.

I'm also going to challenge you to provide me with links from reputable sources, not Johnny Rightwing's speculative blog, that say that it was anticipated from the start that the SOFA would be renegotiated. I've read the White House transcripts from its signing, and nothing there indicates that it was to be a temporary measure. In fact, all the language they used in the joint press conference seems to indicate that there was never any intent to extend it.
