629: Passport Terrorists!
Passport Terrorists, European Visa Restrictions
A new security narrative focuses on "passport fighters"—Western citizens with European or American passports fighting for ISIS who could return home to launch attacks. Senator Feinstein and Representative Mike Rogers specifically highlighted Germany and Spain as points of concern. This rhetoric is seen as a precursor to clamping down on the ESTA visa waiver system and expanding surveillance powers in the UK and US.
