President Obama has made abundantly clear that one of his primary goals in his presidency is to force the United States to be more diverse, less racist, less “zenophobic,” and, particularly, less “Islamophobic.” A perfect way to do all that is to ramp up immigration from majority-Muslim countries, which by the end of his presidency he will have done to the tune of over 1 million green cards issued to Muslim migrants.
The 1 million-plus figure comes via an analysis of Department of Homeland Security data by the Senate Subcommittee on Immigration and National Interest released Friday. The study found that from the time Obama first came into power until the end of FY2014, he issued a total of 832,014 green cards to migrants from Muslim countries, most of whom coming from war-torn and terror-plagued regions, including Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Egypt and Somalia. Here’s the breakdown of migrants from FY2009 to FY2014:
