If the Boston Marathon Massacre had never been committed, but instead someone had written a screenplay depicting such an attack, it would have been a black comedy featuring Keystone Kops and crazy Chechens. But it’s not a comedy. Four people are dead and over 170 wounded, many of them maimed for life, who should never have been harmed—because the attackers had no business being in our country.

Yes—our country!

Many of America’s problems today are best understood by contrasting Enoch Powell’s famous dictum

“The supreme function of statesmanship is to provide against preventable evils”

with the practices favored by our “statesmen.”

Since 1965, our rulers have enthusiastically supported calamitous immigration policies, and have always lied about the rationale and the foreseeable consequences.

Now, as the Gang of Eight seeks to hammer the last nail in America’s coffin with their new democidal Amnesty/ Immigration Surge scheme, they are channeling the spirit of communist playwright Lillian Hellman, about whom Mary McCarthy quipped, every word she wrote was a lie, “including ‘and’ and ‘the.’”

They tell us that there are 11 million invaders who would benefit. But the numbers, as in 1986, will certainly be higher—guesses range up to 24 million (pdf) and even 40 million, plus an ultimate additional 120 million to 200 million through the unfixed “family reunification” feature that has been in the law since the catastrophic 1965 Act.

They tell us that they will collect fines and back taxes from the Amnestied invaders; that the Amnesty will be hard and demanding; that “triggers” must be hit, before the amnesty will be completed; that a “commission” of border state governors would have the legal power to halt any amnesty, based on the lack of fulfillment of various requirements.

Lies, lies, lies.

We cannot trust the leaders of our two-party bipartisan duopoly on anything—let alone this nation-breaking legislation.

It has been estimated that it would cost $2,000 per background check of each criminal candidate for amnesty—that would mean as much as $80 billion for the initial “immigrants,” plus another $400 billion for their “relatives.”

We all know Obama will do no such thing. Heck, even the beneficiaries of the 1986 amnesty were never vetted. Obama is already keeping some violent illegal alien felons out of jail, while freeing others. He loves non-white criminals.

Besides how would one even do a background check on these paper people? They have tons of “documents”—all of them fraudulent. No one knows who they are.

Thus Boston is devastating to the Gang of Eight’s irresponsible Amnesty proposal. But it is even more devastating to legal immigration, which the Gang wants to increase massively. Above all, it is devastating to the refugee and amnesty programs.

As VDARE.com’s Thomas Allen and Refugee Resettlement Watch’s Ann Corcoran have documented for years, the refugee program—in which foreigners are accepted for admission here while they are still overseas—is a racket, with which private agencies profit off of the American taxpayer by bringing in grifters who are almost never victims of persecution.

Then there are the Somali Jihadis, who play persecuted, game us for refugee status, and then return to Somalia to wage Holy War.

Then there are all of the “refugees” who claimed to be relatives of “refugees” already here. DNA screening proved that the second group of grifters had no relation to the first group.

But let’s say you were able to find the proverbial honest refugee. These people are the most primitive cusses on the face of the earth. They don’t understand the concept of a doorknob. They cook by setting the kitchen floor on fire. And they immediately form gangs, and prey on the civilized, white Americans in the formerly beautiful cities they get placed in and destroy—e.g., the Somalis and Hmong who have stolen public parks from the Americans of the Twin Cities. No sane government would accept them. They constitute one endless Mariel boatlift.

And then there is the Asylum scam—people who arrive in the U.S. as visitors and then demand to stay.

Perhaps the most famous asylum scammer: African Moslem Nafissatou Diallo, who gave an Academy Award-worthy performance as she recounted to American authorities the gang-rape she never endured back in Guinea. Diallo was subsequently involved in money-laundering, and last December she shook down French politician Dominique Strauss-Kahn for millions of dollars, after having unsuccessfully sought to have him falsely imprisoned for yet another “rape.”

Who said crime doesn’t pay?

Miss Diallo has never been punished, let alone deported.

The Boston Bombers’ family, the Tsarnaevs, were also asylees. Asylum from what? These are not the kind of people who flee terror; they are the kind whom others flee!

They’re from Chechnya, an area whose people are in competition with the Afghanis and Somalis—just coincidentally, all Moslems—for the title of most warlike people on the face of the earth.

When the terrorists’ uncle Ruslan said that “Chechens are peaceful people,” and that the bombers had put “a shame on the entire Chechen ethnicity,” I laughed out loud. What was the shame, Uncle Ruslan—that they killed so few people?

These people make Gypsies look like saints!

But the rest of this family is even more charming.

Take the father. Please.

Anzor Tsarnaev comes here, claiming to seek asylum, gets it, and then the poor persecuted dear, a garage mechanic, goes back to Russia. He’s been an international commuter ever since (with what money, pray tell?) So he’s an open-and-shut case of fraud. Yet the feds have done nothing about him.

Papa Bomber feels so confident that nothing will happen to him that he says he is going to visit us just to fight for his surviving bomber.

Next, consider the father’s Toronto-based sister, redhead lawyer Maret Tsarnaeva, 45, who held her own press conference on Friday.

Aunt of Marathon Bombing Suspects: "I'm Suspicious That This Was Staged"

PBSNewsHour, Published on Apr 19, 2013

During the course of about three minutes, Maret tells the assembled reporters that she brought the brothers in with her, by way of Canada, and then when a reporter asks about Canada, denies that she ever said that—“Listen to me, guys, I’m a lawyer”—and then says that the brothers were not in Canada, and that their parents, not she, brought them into the country.

“The father of these two boys — he knows them as angels. I know them as angels, too. Where is the evidence that these two boys are terrorists?”

The reporters let her intimidate and/or charm them out of pursuing her contradictions. [Toronto woman claims to be Boston bombing suspect’s aunt, By Charlene Close, The Associated Press, and 680News staff, Apr 19, 2013]

The aunt insists that the crime was “staged” and her nephews “set up.” (She also says she applied for “refugee status” for the family, not asylum.)

So, you can’t trust the aunt to give you the correct time of day… but she’s a pistol.

Now, to the mother. Like her sister-in-law, Zubeidat K. Tsarnaeva, 45, refuses to believe that her little angels had anything to do with this attack. The same U.S. government that was supposedly this persecuted family’s salvation, and which she, her husband, and her in-laws have been playing like a fiddle, framed her sons! It’s a big conspiracy! Look at the film of them walking one behind the other—they would never walk that way down a crowded street!

Ahem!…why is the devout Moslem mother not presently in this Promised Land? Because she’s a thief, who was caught stealing—allegedly caught, Heaven forfend we should be prejudicial—$1,600 worth of merchandise from a Lord & Taylor last year. She was afraid of doing time. Doesn’t she realize that as a Moslem asylum-seeker, she’s above the law?

To me, the mother’s conspiracy theory has a familiar ring.

On February 26, 1993, Moslem followers of the Jersey City blind sheik, Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman, blew up the World Trade Center, killing six and wounding over 1,000 people.

Those days, I taught college in Jersey City.

Among other subjects, I taught a couple of sections of Speech. One of my night students was a lanky, 20-something Arab. After the attack, he didn’t show up for two weeks.

When he re-appeared, at one point he interrupted me to ask, out of nowhere, simply “You believe that?”

The room grew very quiet. It was obvious what he meant. I cross-examined him.

You mean that there was no bomb, and all of the police, local, regional, state and federal were in on a conspiracy to lie to the American people?

A psychopathic, conspiratorial smile spread across his face.

And all of the media, local, state, and national were in on the conspiracy?

He thought we were on the same page.

I countered, addressing his classmates now, “It’s like with Holocaust-deniers. I’ll never understand these guys. If I were a Nazi, I’d be shouting from the rooftops, ‘He did it! The Führer killed six million Jews!’ But instead, they deny everything. It’s as if they’re saying he was an incompetent loser!”

He didn’t get it. Like Nazis, Moslems do not take their irony supplement.

To return to matters Chechnyan, the Russians considered Tamerlan Tsarnaev so dangerous that a couple of years ago, in a rare act of cooperation, they warned the FBI about him. The FBI, however, in an increasingly routine act of Politically Correct incompetence, cleared the future killer.

The feds also obviously did no vetting of the kid bomber, whom they naturalized on—I kid you not—September 11, 2012. So much for the citizenship vetting process.

Our system of immigration law is broken. But the solution is not breaking it more by amnestying and admitting even more invaders.

I will add this as a Jew: White, Christian Americans built this country. They have every right to demand that it stay a majority white, predominantly Christian country. That, ultimately, is what is at stake in the Treason Lobby’s 2013 Amnesty/ Immigration Surge.
