Report Reveals that 100 Afghans Looking for Resettlement in the US are on Terrorism Watch Lists

This comes at a time when the Biden administration is making an attempt to import thousands of Afghans into the American heartland during the next few weeks. Defense Department officials are the ones issuing warnings about the potential for fraud.

According to an official who works in the vetting and screening process that’s occurring in “third safe countries” for Afghans looking to be resettled in the US, “up to 100 of the 7,000 Afghans evacuated as prospective recipients” of Special Immigrant Visas (SIVs have been “flagged” as “potential matches to intelligence agency watch lists.”

Another official confirmed that in “most cases” the Afghans were “cleared by follow-on screening” for being resettled in the US.
