Migrant crisis: Can the US take more than 10,000?
BBC News ^ | SEPT. 11, 2015 | Paul Blake

Posted on 09/13/2015 4:51:15 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

The Obama administration has said it will allow 10,000 Syrian refugees to resettle in the US over the next year. Is this enough? And are there any risks? An estimated 340,000 asylum seekers have arrived in Europe this year, coming from as far as Eritrea, Iraq and Nigeria.

But the largest portion are coming from Syria, and US officials have been at pains to show how much the US is giving in aid.

According to the White House's National Security Council, the US is the single largest donor to the Syrian crisis response, having given over $4bn (£2.6bn) since the crisis began.

But some, such as UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon's special representative on migration, have said that throwing money at the problem is not enough - it's about taking people.

...And are there any risks? ...

Only the risks of lone wolf attacks, organized attacks, converting others to radical islam, beheadings, kidnappings, murder, mayhem. Yes, just a few of the things suggested by radical imams.

Nowhere at no time have muslims ever peacefully coexisted with others. We don’t need more muslims.

Millions have fled Syria in the past 2 years or so, and there’s no telling how many have already come to the US.

Interesting how the stories of Mexican kids in detention centers disappeared from the news.
A more PC immigrant has appeared.

We can't take any. Nor can anyone else. The civilization-ending insanity encouraged by the cheap labor global elitists has got to end. NO MORE immigration or resettlement ANYWHERE!! Return these arrivals to their homelands. Solve problems in place, and stabilize populations. That includes people learning the language, accepting the culture, and being productive. Those that won't do so should return to homelands where they were born or locked in camps.

I'm quite serious. If people won't adapt to their surroundings, the only answer is camps where they stay until they know their new language, laws and culture. There's no other way to put the genie back in the bottle.

The world leaders who cause the mess? They're the ones who should be charged with genocide.

Yeah, I'm that extreme. Civilization is on the brink.

Hopefully, Russia can stabilize a portion of Syria where the good ones can stay, and they can get brutal with the terrorists.

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon’s special representative on migration, this POS has been issuing the orders to Europe and look at the mess we’re in now.

The evil UN isn’t elected by the people of the Continents they’re determined to disrupt and destroy.

It’s a Satanic organisation, run by genuinely evil so-called people.

I agree. It’s time for Korea to show some “love” and open its doors to these “refugees”.

I wonder what the response would be if the refugees were Jewish.

They’d have closed the borders long ago.

Already in some U.S. cities, I see a huge number of women wearing Hijabs (muslim headscarves), often pregnant. They are already invading. I don’t know where they are coming from or how they are getting here, but they are multiplying like flies. The 10,000 number is a lie.
