I understand that some of them are actually quite good businessmen.

Heh! Heh! This made me think of your offensive "street thug" comment on the 'View from the far left' thread that got you banned.... Street smarts beats bureaucrats every time. THE ease with which the eldest member of the 21 July terror cell bluffed his way into Britain was exposed yesterday, as Italian police said he secured a UK passport simply by posing as a Somali asylum seeker. Hamdi Adus Issac hoodwinked the Home Office by inventing a name - Hussein Osman - and claimed he was fleeing the Somali war when he was in fact an Ethiopian who had spent five years living apparently peacefully in Italy..... ... "He falsely declared he was a Somali citizen to obtain the status of political refugee and economic assistance more easily," he said, clearly implying that welfare was an attraction. Claiming Somali status has been a common tactic among bogus asylum seekers. No documentation is needed and without it the Home Office could grant citizenship based on nothing more than the say-so of the applicant. commonsensewonder.com
