“Can the K-1 fiancé visa system be made more secure?” asks the Idiocracy entrusted with YOUR life.
And the answer is no—not given the existing norms held by the officials doing the screening. To wit, the agents and agencies performing- and dictating how screening is carried out do NOT consider it the least bit incompatible or problematic for a blushing bride to be clad in a tent and a nose bag, to practice a religion some of whose tenets are violent, supremacist and antagonistic to the country into to which she is migrating; to have customs and habits so foreign as to be frowned on in America.
I would not voluntarily seek out a dentist, doctor, manicurist or florist who dressed like Tashfeen Malik. Clearly the K-1 package floating around in nose bag and tent goes straight into a ghetto, never to emerge.
And no, it is impossible to make the visa system more secure when the screeners consider Jihad to be nothing more than a peaceful pillar of the Islamic faith. But more about the FBI’s PC manuals on Islam later.
She was granted a K-1 visa, even though the FBI now believes she was radicalized before she met Farook.
The State Department says Malik was thoroughly questioned during an interview at the U.S. embassy in Pakistan. She also filled out a questionnaire, where she was asked “Do you seek to engage in terrorist activity?” and “Are you a member of a terrorist organization?”
Five U.S. agencies also vetted her, checking her fingerprints against two databases. Neither her name nor image showed up on a U.S. terror watch list.
Malik did give an incomplete home address, which could have raised red flags, but it’s not clear if it was intentional. Now Congress is demanding to know what questions she was asked and to see her visa application.
“They say that the vetting process has got all these fail safes but apparently there aren’t enough fail safes, because she got through the system,” said House Republican Matt Salmon. “How many others have gotten through the system?”
