"German intelligence warns of IS ‘hit squads’ among refugees"

"Official says country has to accept it is home to terror ‘sleeper cells.’"

German intelligence services have evidence that “hit squads” from the Islamic State terror group have infiltrated the country disguised as refugees, the deputy head of Bavaria’s spy agency told the BBC Thursday.

“We have to accept that we have hit squads and sleeper cells in Germany,” Manfred Hauser, the vice president of the Bavaria region’s intelligence gathering agency, BayLfV, told the Today program.

“We have substantial reports that among the refugees there are hit squads. There are hundreds of these reports, some from refugees themselves. We are still following up on these, and we haven’t investigated all of them fully,” said Hauser.

In other words, the risk incurred by the current policy is worth it. Just because we don't understand it, doesn't mean it's not a sound policy. We are just telling everybody now, so that as the attacks continue and/or intensify, fingers are not pointed in our direction, accusing us of missing it or whatever.
