All eyes are on the 4 million people whove fled a brutal civil war in Syria thats been raging for four years. Several European countries are offering to take in many of the refugees. The United States has also offered to help by possibly taking in 10,000 people. Senator Richard Blumenthal wants to see the process sped up.
The magnitude of the refugee crisis is staggering and horrifying, said Blumenthal.
Currently, it takes 18 months to two years for a refugee to come to the United States because of the lengthy process thats involved. Sen. Blumenthal will submit a four point plan later this week to the powers that be in Washington that will hopefully eliminate some of the red tape. He announced some of his plan Monday morning in Hartford. Some of the points include:
Sen. Blumenthal adds that resources need to be in place before refugees arrive. But the other focus needs to be on resolving the war in Syria so that many of the families whove been displaced can one day return. For now, the focus is on bringing hope to people whove already lost so much.
We are a nation that opens its arms and heart and our diversity makes us the greatest nation in the world. Its not a weakness. Its a strength, said Blumenthal.
Evil minds. People that need to destroy good. Lying minions of the great liar.
What is his hometown? Use social media to tell that town that 5,000 of these folks need to be be placed there, and their community must assist and support them. Make it personal.
Hurry! Save ISIS from the Russians!
THEY are responsible for their situation and until/unless they take responsibility for the fix... it will NOT change. Running away (and BTW, replicating the SAME ghastly circumstances in your new home) will NOT work either.
Idiots and gullible morons whose NEW homes these creeps invade need to wake up!!
Like Donald says, this country is being run by really, really stupid people!!
Don’t we still have hit squads that take out bad actors like Blumenthal?
We are a nation that opens its arms and heart and our diversity makes us the greatest nation in the world. Its not a weakness. Its a strength, said Blumenthal.
I cannot believe this kind of talking point is still being trotted out. How in the world can anybody with any awareness truly believe this? Wish that it were true but in this day and age we can’t simply open up our “arms and hearts” to just anybody. And diversity is only a strength when all parties have, despite other differences, similar values and ways of life. IMO.
Very apt verses indeed. It’s the only thing that makes sense too.
These aren’t refugees. They are young (21-40 yo) healthy men waiting to form batallions and regiments. If they were refugees they would come with families.
Damn! Might have to start lighting up some of.......
I had better not.

We’ll surely need the Force and then some to defeat these morons.
The Liberals see new voters but the rest of us see new parasites and murderers who want to destroy our American culture and our Constitution and put us all into tyranny.
Just had a conversation with a Norwegian woman who refused to accept any of the facts. She think me saying men should stay and fight for their country is very unpleasant and one of the worst things she has read.
Gave a link how Sweden has more rapes because of muslims moving in and she still refused to accept it.
Some people have their heads so far up their own butts that they will never see the light.
they’re all cowards who refuse to fight for their freedom and we have people here who wants them . Stunning!
Make that “parachute prohibited.”
brings to mind Deuteronomy 28 also,
