Muslim-owned hotel in New York offers easy citizenship "birth tourism"

And they'll get their healthcare from Obamacare no doubt. Anchor babies. Jan Brewer has it right. If you're here illegally and you have a baby here that is thus an American citizen that's YOUR problem. Take the baby or leave it but YOU'RE going back.

We are way past due for another look at the Fourteenth Amendment.

Jihadwatch:

Making more Muslim American citizens, cheap. And the way Turkey is going, it is increasingly unlikely that the children born in New York via this method will grow up to be ardent secularists. "New York hotel pioneers birth tourism," from Breaking Travel News, June 10 (thanks to Logans Warning):

A New York hotel is staking its claim to have invented a new hospitality niche -
birth tourism. The Marmara Manhattan offers "an exclusive package for new mothers that wish to give birth in the USA", with the additional bonus of the newborn child gaining US citizenship.

The hotel, which is part of the Turkish hospitality chain, exploits the 14th amendment to the US constitution, which states that all children born on American soil "are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside".

The Marmara Manhattan, which is located in New York's Upper East Side, told The Times: "What we offer is simply a one-bedroom suite accommodation for $5,100, plus taxes, for a month, with airport transfer, baby cradle and a gift set for the mother." There are also medical fees of about £20,500.

However the price is a cheap and easy one to pay for US citizenship. Many will eventually use the newborn - known as an "anchor baby" - as a stepping stone for the immigration of extended family.

The hotel has so far sold 15 of the packages.

According to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, the practice is entirely legal as long as the women can pay their medical bills.

However there are noises being made in Washington to close the loophole.

Gary Miller, a Republican congressman, told The Times: "They come to this country and have babies. The children are citizens. The children are eligible to go to school.

They receive food stamps and social programmes. The American taxpayers
are paying for it....

Yep.
