So what's good enough for our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan is too harsh for border trespassers and "refugees" is that what I'm hearing? What other country in the world pays for air conditioning under similar circumstances? They probably have big screens, computers, Xbox, telemundo and nice food, too.

Since when did this rabble know air conditioning? They will probably freeze their butts off.

This is like Saudi Arabia's tent cities which are used to host the annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca:

There is criticism that these livable units could house almost all of the 4 million Syrian refugees that have been displaced by the country’s civil war.

Great comments, haha!

"Each one has a 3 ton cooling unit attached"

"Where did they stay during that 2000 mile walk"

"See the green boxes on the side of the tent (picture 10 shows that they all have them)? those are heat/air conditioning units. Service members in Afghanistan and Iraq did not always have the heat/air conditioning units but they survived."

"What is the temperature 1 mile away in Mexico where they came from?"

"96 degrees?? Do they think we can't see the air conditioners??"

"Summer vacation. Then welfare and free medical."

"Looks like summer camp compared to most places in Honduras and Guat."

They're claiming asylum, right? Running away from bombings, war, genocide, etc?

If this is worse, perhaps we should send them home.

It isn’t even fake news anymore. It has simply become fake noise.

I’m sure these are far better accommodations than they had in whatever shithole country they came from.

That place is in better condition that the Basic Training barracks at Ft. Knox in 1980.

I wish we had it that good!

A thread about pics kinda needs pics.

Better conditions that 3d Armored Division troops were housed in in 1990-91 in Saudi Arabia & Kuwait; than initially in Iraq in 2003 and in all of the Combat Out Posts in Iraq and Afghanistan, 2001 to now.
