I was listening to my daily news and a point was brought up about how ISIS wanted a refugee crisis. I started to think about it. Then I realized they Weaponized immigration. What I mean by this is that their strategy is reaching much further than their controlled area. By pushing out so many people they are forcing other countries to step in and act. Jordan has erected tent metropolis' for them. They are financially draining the region. Just think of all the resources it takes. Now just look at these other countries were immigrants are fleeing in hopes of arriving in Europe. Some of them are going to Greece were they are already financially unstable. Now they are going to other countries in Europe and are drawing on their government for assistance. The more money any government spends on these immigrants they will only add to the instability of their own economy. The less stable a country is the less likely they will be willing to fight in the War on Terror, primarily ISIS. This is effective strategy. I didn't see it coming. There are no end of of immigrants that want to flee to Europe from any of the war torn countries.

This is a new tactic? What are the other implications? How would so many immigrants affect the make up of their new communities and country as a whole?

This will reshape the political landscape in Europe and will reshape the threats as well.

Money is a weapon system, the lack thereof equates to an ineffective weapon. In this case, people are a weapons system as it takes a toll on the resources of a country, an unforeseen constraint on an already challenged European Union economy and the cultural shift likely to come. The thing to watch is whether these migrants will assimilate or conclave themselves as a subsection of society.

The unspoken challenge is to find the imbedded terrorist (lone wolf/wolfpack?) with these groups as they are within the populations coming into Europe and next to hit the ever open arms of the Great United States of America....you are a fool if you do not think they are not using people as a weapon system.

Immigration is a tool that ISS can use to inbed lone wolf or packs. What better way to get their sucide personal to other countries.
