Congressman Josh Breechen says recent polling from the Washington Institute showed that “among the Gaza population, 57% of them have a favorable opinion of Hamas’ murderous activities,” this comes after Hamas killed 1400 Israelis on October 7, with 32 of the deaths being Americans, and 11 Americans being part of 200 of the Hostages that were taken. The Oklahoma Congressman says, “and to think that we are going to utilize the same lack of process that we saw with Afghanistan, under a Democrat administration, where even their own Investigator General said that it was ‘lacking in really vetting these people coming from Afghanistan,’ it is incredible to me to think that we would potentially parole into the interior of the United States, those that by strong majority support Hamas.” Commenting, there's a real threat already that’s being played out in the interior United States” from the people coming in through the southern border, “the FBI uncovered that there's over 600 people that are on there on the special interest alien list, 600 people that have come across our southern border from Iran and that is out of a sum total of 70,000 that have come across the southern border on a special interest list from all over the world representing over 100 different countries. So when you hear people talk about the 250 [people] that are on the terrorist watch that have come across under the Biden administration, you don't hear the 600 number of those specific to Iran that are on the special interest list.”
