keep throwing a visaed person into the den of terrorism untill something sticks? The family did mention, the older brother was questioned by the FBI? several times over the years.
Makes me wonder how many of Americas visa residents, who have to go home and reenter every so often are under the control of the FBI. that really scares me.

I know a few people with long term visas, who have to go home every year or so, reenter and update the visa to be legal. They want to live in the USA, their home countries are not safe.

I think this requirement of our visa system needs a serious change. Some authorities may be grabbing hold of persons who are refused citizenship and using them in their hunt for terrorism. growing terrorists.
