CSI Refugee Center Expects Influx of Syrians

TWIN FALLS • The College of Southern Idaho’s Refugee Center is expecting an influx of Syrian refugees starting in October. Projections show the center will likely receive 300 refugees from around the world during the upcoming federal fiscal year. That’s the same number as this year.

Refugee Center director Zeze Rwasama anticipates the biggest populations of newcomers will be from Syria and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

“That can change at any time depending on what’s out there,” he said. The U.S. Department of State approves the number of refugees coming to Twin Falls.

There aren’t any Syrians in Twin Falls yet, Rwasama said, but the Refugee Center is prepared for the influx. “We’re not anticipating any challenges.”

Worldwide, aid groups are calling on the United States to do more to help Syrians displaced by a five-year civil war.

The war has claimed the lives of more than 220,000 people and driven some 9 million of the prewar population of 23 million from their homes. Of those, more than 3.8 million have fled to neighboring countries.

To date, the U.S. has resettled just 648 Syrians.

May as well settle them in Minneapolis with all our other turd world friends.

Hijrah” is the Islamic doctrine of migration to spread Islam and Sharia law throughout the world. Ann Corcoran, below, describes HOW this “refugee resettlement” happens to America, directed by the U.N. and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and run by 9 agencies, to seed Islam in hundreds of America cities.

Here is a list of those 9 contractors:

Nine major federal resettlement contractors are choosing which towns get refugees; contracted by the US State Department, citizens kept in the dark and they are mostly muslims...

Church World Service (CWS)
Ethiopian Community Development Council (ECDC) (secular)
Episcopal Migration Ministries (EMM)
Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS)
International Rescue Committee (IRC) (secular)
US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI) (secular)
Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services (LIRS)
United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB)
World Relief Corporation (WR)

I’d be interested in hearing from people that live in that community how it affects them.

Not to worry. I’m SURE they will all be displaced Syrian Christians...

Graduated from Twin Falls High in 1965, and have returned to Twin over the years. I have been here the past few years, taking care of my parents.

As I see it, the 300 refugees will automatically go on Public Assistance, probably won't try to assimilate, and will not contribute to the future of the community.

But its a done deal and the community has little input into the process.

What’s the population there? Are they having to raise taxes and lower standards in the schools? Will the crime rate increase?

"Not to worry. I’m SURE they will all be displaced Syrian Christians..."

Many have been misled by propaganda from Russia and Italy about them. They're extremely anti-Israel and anti-American in both Syria and Lebanon.

CSI: Refugee Center is the main reason — part of the costs will be spun off to a broadcast network.

Thanks, George.

Population in Twin Falls is about 45K -- with another 150K in the Magic Valley -- although the Magic Valley is about 130 miles by 80 miles. (Population doesn't include all the cows in the valley!)

Probably won't have to raise taxes much, since the Federal government is picking up the tab -- although the State will need to handle increased services costs.

Education costs/standards are not determined at this time because we don't know the mix of parent/child in the bunch.

Crime? Time will tell...

"But its a done deal and the community has little input into the process."

That's because the American people are unwilling to rise up and throw off the oppressor. Every day Obama expands the invasion in a thousand different ways. By the end of his term how many invaders will have been brought to the US or encouraged across the Mexican border? And how many of them will be naturalized and registered to vote whether naturalized or not? The Left never intends to lose power again and they would rather rule in the hell of a collapsed US than serve in the US as it was before Obama.
