Christians are in imminent danger across the world, and yet they are being refused refugee status, while Muslim refugee immigration goes on unimpeded.
U.S. policy regarding refugee resettlement would shock most Americans if they only knew. The United Nations picks who gets to come to the U.S. as a refugee. The mandate of the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is to determine which of the world’s huddled masses comes to the U.S. as humanitarian refugees. And predictably, this U.N. body is favoring Muslims. Christians from Muslim lands are being refused refugee status.
This is occurring despite the fact that in their home countries, under the Shariah, Christians face persecution and many times certain death for their religious beliefs. At the same time, whole Muslim communities are entering the U.S. by the tens of thousands per month, despite the fact that in their home countries they face no religious persecution.
This is no accident. We know that the U.N. is driven largely by its largest bloc of countries, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation. The OIC is one of the largest intergovernmental organizations in the world. It is a religious and political organization with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, an organization dedicated in its own words to “eliminating and destroying Western civilization from within.”
It is horrifying but true that Afghan Christians are being refused refugee status by the U.N. and many Western nations, including Great Britain. The U.N. claims that Afghan Christians do not meet the criteria for refugee status that is stipulated in Statute 6B of the UNHCR, which requires refugees to have “a well founded fear of persecution by reason of his race, religion, nationality or political opinion.” Read more at http://www.wnd.com/2011/11/372525/#YJiTCOj4cLJVKU8E.99

Thanks to the Obamadministration and an historically overly liberal State Department..
I realize this is from 2011. I was hoping to get some input and more info on this topic. I have mentioned this a few times to people and have been called a lunatic and a liar. I tried contacting a few missionary organizations and those dealing with Islamic countries and was told basically No comment. Anyone know the official government stats on this stuff? If they are even available for the last 4 years. It would be interesting to see the breakdown by religion and location of those granted refugee status. Also, who in fact is setting US refugee and asylum standards. If it is the UNHRC this should be made public knowledge.
There will be a lot of regret among UN members on the Day of Judgement!

This country is broken beyond peaceful resolution. It is almost evenly divided into two hostile camps defined by opposing moral, social, economic and political philosophies. The Liberals won’t yield and the Conservatives damn well shouldn’t.
Start hammering your elected with this Christian-Muslim bias by the United Nations which has been going on for decades - who in our State Department is allowing this to happen also...what are our State Department rules about immigrating Muslims and Christians...who is let in first? Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is hardly an American citizen since he lied about he reasons for becoming such...! And while you are at it tell your elected to stop and and all Welfare for the Tsarnaev family and arrest his mother for Grand Theft if she enters America. Take Action Freepers!
The Leftist District of Criminals loooooooooooooooves Muzzies like you wouldn’t believe. Christians OTOH are anathema to them.
Well, Obama is a muslim.

What the hell is the UN deciding ANYTHING for us for?
PFL
It’s time there were some Muslim and other refugees FROM the United States.
There seems to be at least a little more balance in Canada’s immigration policies now. Under too many years of Liberals in power in Ottawa, our immigration policies followed that of the UN. Lots of ROP types and few, if any, Christians. Under seven years of Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper, our immigration policies seem to be a little more fair, not favouring ROPers as much.
I have some church friends who came to Canada from Liberia about three years ago, via Cote d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast) and Ghana. In Liberia, they pastored a Pentecostal church. Civil wars in Liberia led to their becoming refugees in Cote d’Ivoire; war in that country led them to seek refuge in Ghana, before they were accepted as refugees to Canada. Unfortunately, two of their kids remain in Ghana.
They work very, very long hours, doing work that many ‘Canadians’ woud not do. They send some of their money back home, but most of it goes to the building of a church, school and clinic in Liberia.
When I feel discouraged about my divorce, unemployment, having no family and my financial woes, I merely have to consider what they have gone through. Their faith in the Lord is so amazing. I look at them and realize I should thank the Lord each morning, just to be drawing breath.
Canada did a good thing, not just for these folks, but for itself as a country, by accepting them as refugees. Can the same thing be said of the Chechens and other ROPers let into the States by the Klintoons, GWB and Hussein?
The UN is an Islamist/Communist organization that works with our Democratic Party to further breakdown Western Civilization. Helping Christians would be counterproductive from a UN point of view.
Damn right! Keep up the pressure people, DON’T BE APATHETIC!
