Director of Intelligence: ISIS Is Hiding Among The ‘Refugees’


The director of National Intelligence issued this statement from a rare and informal public appearance at a U.S. intelligence community conference. He goes on to state that he has plenty of confidence in the United States’ ability to screen for potential terrorists, but worries about those of Western Europe, where the selected 10,000 refugees are coming from.

“As they descend on Europe, one of the obvious issues that we worry about, and in turn as we bring refugees into this country, is exactly what’s their background?” said Clapper. “We don’t obviously put it past the likes of ISIL to infiltrate operative among these refugees. That is a huge concern of ours.”

The Washington Times describes Clapper’s remarks as coming from a “rare and unusually informal public appearance at an annual U.S. intelligence community conference that kicked off Wednesday morning in Washington.

Clapper claimed that the U.S. has a “pretty aggressive” screening system for asylum-seekers, but worried about the ability of European nations to properly screen the hundreds of thousands of migrants flooding across their borders.

And he’s right to be concerned. The Islamic State isn’t known for making hollow threats. With all of the violence these refugees are causing in Hungary and the claims that there are ISIS fighters among them, the Obama Administration better know they’re doing.
