A growing number of migrants worldwide are fleeing "sickening atrocities" and often encounter cruelty and xenophobia instead of compassion, the UN's rights chief said Monday.

"Conflicts in Syria, Iraq and elsewhere have unleashed a toxic brew of malevolent forces, including the commission of sickening atrocities, and the emergence of human trafficking gangs," Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein said.

"These are the circumstances that migrants are increasingly fleeing. The trauma they have suffered is appalling, (and) they deserve the international community's sympathy and compassion," he told the opening of the UN Human Rights Council's main annual session in Geneva.

Instead, they were being met by "a rising roar of xenophobia", he said. ...

Repatriate them ALL to the Middle East.

Set up a Safe Zone. Ship them back.

Problem solved.

Except that less than 20% of them are actually refugees fleeing violence. The other 80% are opportunists, and overwhelmingly male.

And as Olog-hai said, why aren't Muslims nations that aren't involved in wars right now taking in any of them? The answer is that the Islamization of both Europe and America is quite intentional.

A question is my mind since this started has been: why haven't any enterprising reporters asked a good sample of 'refugees' if they would have chosen a Muslim nation if they could have gone to any of their choice?

I've seen next to nothing in the way of interviews with 'refugees' to learn of their motives.

Send the UN to Jordan.

One week later send all the "Refugees" to the UN's door step.

“A growing number of migrants worldwide are fleeing “sickening atrocities””

We can tell from the gratitude they show to the people in the countries that greet them with open arms.

they deserve safe zones in their own or neighboring countries. They don’t need to be sent 10,000 miles away from home.

Why doesn’t the UN address Saudi Arabia’s xenophobia? Or other Muslim nations?

UN hypocrisy at its finest.

Well, fine, but that hardly includes welcoming hardened Moroccan street gangs in the name of universal fellowship. “Love your rapist” is going to be a tough sell.

I'd like to know from the UN, why it is the responsibility of Western society to take in millions of crazed Muslim psychos that are unfit to have such aid made available to them. Compassion should be for the Christians, Copts, Jews, Orthodox, etc. who have been Muslim victims in these Middle East hell holes. Western society's genuine compassion is not a suicide pact with barbarians.

While we’re at it, evict the UN and turn the site into a sewage plant.
