1,037 Syrian Refugees Admitted in May: Two Christians, 1,035 Muslims
CNS News ^

(CNSNews.com) – The number of Syrian refugees admitted into the United States jumped to 1,037 during May – an increase of 130 percent over the previous month – but the proportion of Christians among them remains miniscule: two Christians (0.19 percent) compared to 1,035 Muslims.

May’s figure of 1,037 Syrian refugees brings the total number since the beginning of 2016 to 2,099 – compared to 2,192 for the whole of 2015, according to State Department Refugee Processing Center data.

Earlier years since the Syrian civil war began saw much smaller numbers arriving – 20 in 2011 (dated from mid-March); 41 in 2012; 45 in 2013; and 249 in 2014.

Of the 2,099 Syrian refugees admitted so far this year, six (0.28 percent) are Christians, 2,043 (97.3 percent) are Sunni Muslims. The remaining 50 are 17 (0.8 percent) Shi’a, 30 (1.4 percent) other Muslims and 10 (0.47 percent) Yazidis.

Doesn’t seem like a large number, but if I were a betting man, I’d say that better than half of them are militant or sympathetic to militant Islam.

Don’t want them Christians coming in and setting up a business that would deny service to the GAYSTAPO people; they want mussies who’ll be cab drivers and deny service to a blind person with a seeing eye dog instead.

I live in Germany, and have been around a couple of the Syrians. At least from the group I’ve chatted with...no one has much enthusiasm for Assad or the ISIS crowd. Most Syrians were agreeable to Assad leaving one way or another...it’s just that they didn’t realize that the alternate choice might end up being some extreme version of Islam.

When you go and look at recruitment...the Syrians who packed up and left Syria....are about the last folks you’d want to approach for some radical ISIS recruitment theme. So, when you look around Europe....it’s typically 2nd generation French-Muslim or Turks or some other Middle-Eastern group who grew up in the European school system and just reached some failed state of life that gets recruited.

I do agree...there might be a couple hundred ISIS thugs who played the fake immigrant routine and just sits around to wait for orders. But the bulk of the Syrian crowd are fairly negative about ISIS and their focus ahead....along with Assad needing to leave.

A Syrian family moved in 2 doors down from me. They seem nice enough. The father is a doctor, and the mother is a stay-at-home mom. They def. act the part of a westerner, but I am constantly leery of them. Taqqiyah is very real.

There are several factors which I kinda noticed....from the group I was around. None of the women wore the head-gear or facial covering, and they were fairly determined to be westernized (to include the drivers license, get a job, and being independent).

I also noted that they all had craftsman backgrounds....bakers, oil production, mechanic, pharmacy, etc. Education in Syria....at least prior to this civil war period...was a good bit higher than you’d see in the other regional countries.

ISIS has an agreement with 0bongo that their Trojan Horse now in America not wage their attacks until AFTER he leaves office. In the meantime he'll PRETEND he's targeting ISIS in the Middle East while escalating their invasion of America.

What other possible explanation could there be for his frantic escalation of 'refugee' immigration to America?

WHY, are we continuing to allow Muslims to enter our country as refugees?

I’m serious! Why hasn’t this been STOPPED?
