State Department Using 'Diversity Visas' to Encourage Immigration to U.S. from T
mitciv
The "diversity visas" are designed to encourage immigration from countries that do not otherwise send significant numbers of immigrants to the United States.
Nationals of the four states listed by the State Department as state sponsors of terrorism--Cuba, Iran, Sudan, and Syria--also received "diversity visas" from the State Department to immigrate to the United States in 2010. These include 98 from Syria, 298 from Cuba, 1,084 from Sudan, and 2,773 from Iran

Therefore, it is pure evil.
You gotta have some sort of US embassy to apply for one. Cuba and Iran don't have formal diplomatic relations with the US. Been to Cuba, they don't even have to stamp your passport, you can for the novelty of it. BTW did I mention I'm Mexican..............lol Now, where the white women at?
All leftists must be evil or ignorant, or both. Either way, they need to leave the United States.
"I don’t believe it," said one high school senior. "I can't believe it."
Yet, Danish Minhas and Nur Mohamed are jailed and due in court Thursday morning for the murder of 43-year-old Tabassum Khan. Khan was Minhas's mother.
"Nur Mohamed confessed to stabbing Khan several dozen times," said Sgt. Brian Harris of the Houston Police Department.
According to police, Mohamed is a Somalian-born student who was recently caught with drugs on campus. His friendship with Minhas, a Pakistani-born senior who made good grades and worked in Lee High School's administrative office, blossomed in Spanish class.
On the surface, they seemed like an odd match. Classmates knew Mohamed as the guy who brought drugs to school. They knew Minhas as the guy who made the morning announcements over the campus intercom.
Even the Houston police knew of Minhas. On the day his mother was killed, Minhas was supposed to report to HPD Headquarters to interview for an internship. It would have been his second interview for the spot.
"Danish Minhas was in the law enforcement community," said Harris. "He received several leadership awards."
But according to police, Minhas confessed to recruiting Mohamed to kill his mother. Police found her dead in her apartment back in November.
The motive?
Investigators say Minhas simply didn't want to follow her house rules.
"These were not unusual restrictions- curfew, be home at night, stay off the freeway- very simple rules any parent that's responsible would ask their child to do," said Harris.
LOL...make us leave Right-winger...what pure drivel...
