ALLENTOWN, Pa. (CBS) — They are Egyptian, Jordanian, Iraqi – but mostly Syrian, and just under 200 arrived to the Syrian Arab American Charity Association in Allentown to receive food, supplies and medical care.

“No one comes here to make problems… they come here for a better life,” Syrian-born, Allentown resident Mohamad Salloum told Eyewitness News.

By here, Mohamad means America, but also Lehigh County where the need for resettlement assistance is increasing, hence – this monthly event.

I grew up in Whitehall. Went to Allentown Central Catholic. This is a disgrace. Although I wouldn’t even step into downtown allentown anymore. Horrible and dangerous. I guess they want it worse.

Best wishes and good luck to the decent, law-abiding, and America-loving citizens in the great Keystone State.
How unfortunate your sneaky, weasel-like, and shortsighted so-called leadership wishes to foist this dangerous nightmare on you. :-(

How do 200 people get from there to here? On a plane? A commercial airliner? Why doesn’t anyone ask those type of questions?

How did they sneak in? Allentown is a crap hole already - sorry to see this burden added to it.

Allentown does have a respectable art museum. At least it did back in the late '70s.

More permanent Democrat voters being sent to a PURPLE DISTRICT, nit a blue one.

Take note how almost ALL of them are being sent into Congressional districts that it will only take a few thousand Democrats votes to make them PERMANENT “D” seats?

Sorry to hear that Naps. I feel like crying reading this story. I guess they’ll be shipping them to all the inner cities around the country which are generally located in blue states. I gotta get out of this area!

While congress is debating about laws to stop Obama from bringing in his brothers, Obama continues to import them. If they came to ABE by plane, they had to go through a major airport first, so Immigration let them in.

Thanks. Back in the 50’s and 60’s it was an absolute beautiful place. I was not born then but many of my older friends speak fondly of the ‘old days’. It makes me sad too because even in the 70’s and 80’s it was ok.....not great but at least no shootings or anything like they do now. The city was founded with the Polish, Italian and German and some Russians. Today it is almost 70 percent Hispanic.....but of course you can’t speak negatively about it or your a racist......shake head.

Keep trying. I got through after about 20 tries.

I told them I would hold them personally accountable for any terrorist actions taken by any of THEIR refugees.
