See, http://slate.msn.com/?id=2072317&device= National Review, Oct. 28 In a damning cover story, the magazine obtains the visa applications for 15 of the Sept. 11 hijackers and concludes that all of them should have been denied entry to the United States. State Department consular officers, ignoring immigration law, admitted hijackers who had no visible means of support, had no credible reason to enter the United States, clearly lied on their applications, and withheld required information. Hijackers listed fake destinations in the United States ("Wasantwn"; "South City") or none at all. The State Department is supposed to bar suspicious applicants for temporary visas, but, NR argues, lax enforcement and a specific policy of "courtesy" toward Saudis allowed the terrorists to beat the system.—D.P.
