Refugees Using Welfare to Vacation Back Home
Patriot News Daily ^ | 1/26/2017 | Staff

Posted on 01/31/2017 4:36:03 AM PST by HomerBohn

Thousands of refugees are taken in by Switzerland on an annual basis, granted asylum in the country due to war-torn conditions in their home countries. But while Swiss residents may be okay with their government taking in the tired and poor, they may not be too happy about a recent report in the Basler Zeitung.

According to the Swiss newspaper, thousands of refugees head back to the African nation of Eritrea every year, despite the fact that it is supposedly too dangerous for them to live there. The paper reports that many of these refugees have been rejected for asylum status in Switzerland, but Swiss authorities are unable to deport them back to Eritrea due to the dangerous conditions on the ground.

The paper said that as many as 50 Eritreans a day are traveling from Switzerland back to their home countries for vacation. To compound matters, many of these refugees are wards of the state in their adopted land. In other words, they are using Swiss welfare dollars to return at will to a country that is, by government policy, too dangerous for them to go back to.

We’ll leave it to the Swiss to get a handle on their own refugee problem, but this is a reflection of a growing problem across the Western hemisphere. In Europe and the United States, liberal governments are being taken advantage of by countries that cannot stand on their own merits. Remittance payments, welfare checks, and direct humanitarian aid come pouring into these countries; criminals and ne’er-do-wells come pouring out.

It’s not that we don’t have sympathy for the plight of true refugees, and it’s not that we want to see the U.S. and Western Europe turn their backs on those in need. But there comes a point where kindness turns into idiocy, and we are rapidly approaching that point if we haven’t crossed it already. Terrorism is only one facet of the danger. Cultural degradation and economic instability cannot be ignored, either.

There has to be a middle ground. We can send aid to failing countries without making their problems our own. We can provide humanitarian assistance without laying out the welcome mat to every displaced wretch in Northern Africa. We can fulfill our international obligations without putting our security at risk.

The same scheme must be ongoing in the United States.

The welfare bucks hauled out of any nation that stupidly shoveled it into the Muslim Immigrants will end up financing the terrorists! How clever to give the bleeding heart welfare to those entrants that don't work because they won't work, and the bucks help finance the west's enemies. Stop all immigration and stop welfare payments to Muslim leeches!

If it is safe enough for them to return on their own, it is safe enough to stay there. Once out, you are done.

They are not refugees, as they are not fleeing oppression , persecution, or death.

They are economic migrants gaming the system.

NTL REVIEW/BY DAVID HANSON----The Muslim Tsarnaev brothers (Boston bombers) offer us a teachable moment about what have become near-suicidal US immigration policies not being enforced---that are on the books:

(1) that foreign nationals must at least avoid crime,

(2) stay off public assistance,

(3) that the US is disinclined to grant "asylum" (triggers endless SS checks) to “fearful refugees” from war-torn Islamic regions,

(4) that force taxpayers to foot the bill for these types to go back and forth between America and their supposedly "hostile Muslim homelands" on the taxpayers' dime.

===============================================

Berieved, besieged Boston bombing survivors were outraged that Tsarnaev family's trip to the US for the trial was paid for with their tax dollars b/c the US govt mandates that struggling taxpayers foot the bill for these people to go back and forth between America and their "supposedly" hostile homelands on the taxpayers' dime.

Taxpayers footed the bills for the entire buck-sucking Tsarnaev's for a long, l-o-n-g time. When these immigrants get to the US they claim "asylum" b/c that triggers endless monthly Social Security checks ......that's just for starters.

=================================================

BACKSTORY Immediately after the Boston bombing, then-Democrat Mass Gov Deval Patrick ordered Massachusetts govt agencies to conceal welfare documents from taxpayers. But sources who saw 500 pages of welfare documents (requested by a state legislator) told News Center 5 that the entire Chechnyan immigrant Tsarnaev family collected upwards of $100,00 tax dollars free and clear. MA taxpayers financed the killing and maiming of their own friends and neighbors.

================================================

MASSACHUSETTS TAXPAYERS WERE UNKNOWINGLY FORCED TO FINANCE THE TSARNEV BROTHERS' DIRTY DEEDS BIGTIME ---After the Boston bombing, Massachusetts Democrat Gov Deval Patrick refused to divulge info WRT massive public assistance to the bomber killers/Chechen immigrants.

But state welfare officials were forced to come clean b/c the info is available to lawmakers. State Rep David Linsky called on the Mass Dept of Transitional Assistance to provide the info..... issuing an ultimatum, giving them 24 hours to provide the info.

The Boston Herald published the state's response: 'My office is working to fully comply with your request,' DTA interim commissioner Stacey Monahan wrote, saying they were only providing a summary 'given the great interest in this matter.'

Chechen immigrants--the bombers' parents----were eligible as legal, non-citizen residents who claimed "asylum" status and met the eligibility criteria for DTA, DTA interim commissioner Stacey Monahan said in a letter to David Linsky, Chairman of the Mass House Post Audit and Oversight Committee.

Multiple state agencies, on orders from Democrat Gov Patrick, refused to comment on the bomber brothers' welfare haul.

<><> WRT Tamerlan receiving UI benefits, Labor dept spokesman Kevin Franck refused to comment....

<><> Univ of Mass-- Dartmouth spokesman Robert Connolly refused to comment on the financial aid app of 19 -year-old soph Dzhokhar. 'It is our position - and I believe the accepted position in higher education - that student records including academic records and financial records (including financial aid) cannot under federal law be released without a student’s consent.'

<><> The FCC would not discuss whether the suspected bombers had govt-paid Obamaphones.

<><> Cambridge housing officials would not comment on if the brothers had Section 8 rental subsidy offered by the HUD to low income households.

<><> Chechen immigrants--the bombers' parents--were legal, non-citizen residents who claimed "asylum" status and met the eligibility criteria for endless SS checks.

<><> In sum, while planning the bombing, the Chechneyan immigrants received every conceivable tax-paid public benefit available out there.

It can't be said too often: terrorism that has actually killed Americans weren't the refugees themselves, but their second generation!

Yes. If any so called refugee returns to their home land they are refused readmittance to the U.S. Also NO REMITTANCES if they are receiving one penny of governnent assistance. If caught sending any money to their home country all assistance ends and they are required to repay any public funds received

Same thing documented in Somali-sota. “Refugees” magically getting money for travel and demanding their low-income rent bills be put on hold while they are vacationing in their homeland.

Senator Gobashher stated on Cavuto’s program that Minnesota is proud of being the state with the highest population of Somalis.

Minnesotans need to awake from their stupor and get rid of this thing as well as the demented dummy Franken.

How about signing a statement like other nations enforce that states the immigrant will never apply for or receive welfare.

If an American wishes to migrate to another nation he must prove that he has enough money to support himself and plans to buy a home. If not he doesn’t get in.

Mexico has one of the most stringent policies governing immigration than any nation in the world. How telling. We get only the scum of their society and the same is true of the nations south of Mexico’s border.

According to the govt of Mexico, illegals on US soil are, in fact,
Mexican citizens, encouraged by Mexico to ride the US gravy train.

==============================================

AFFIDAVIT BY THE GOVERNMENT OF MEXICO
IN A SWORN AFFIDAVIT TO A TEXAS COURT, MEXICO
SWORE THAT MEXICANS ON US SOIL ARE MEXICAN CITIZENS.

A sworn affidavit by Mexico/s Consul General to a Texas court asserts that Mexico/s official govt policy is to encourage its poor people to migrate here illegally in order to access our generous welfare system

The Mexican consul's sworn testimony asserts that: "My responsibilities in this position include protecting the rights and promoting the interests of my fellow Mexican nationals, and, that the main responsibility of consulates is to provide services, assistance, and protection to Mexican nationals abroad."

A footnote states that Mexican nationality is granted to children born abroad of a Mexican born parent. IOW, anchor babies born in the US retain parents Mexican nationality.

==========================================

Ergo, illegals have two governments looking after their interests.....our govt subsidizing them, and the Mexican govt making sure they collect.

Its time the US govt look after the interests of American citizens.

Look at Britain, where a Muslim “refugee” with his four wives and 16 children are living in council housing and getting thousands of pounds annually in welfare, all this while lobbying for Sharia law. They are not interesting in assimilating and punish those Muslims who do.

Dear Mr. President (Vanity)

Dear Mr. President,

Please recognize as a matter of law, policy and fact, that any refugee who fled to America because they claimed they were in fear of their life in their homeland who subsequently returns to that country on vacation has clearly and unequivocally declared they no longer fear persecution there and must be promptly repatriated back to their country of origin.

Sincerely,
(nully)
