Should we take these refugees? (172)
lindsyjones: Why we should or should not approve refugees spread all over the world.
The most urgent challenge confronting us now is the fate of the refugees.
I'm not suggesting to undermine our commitment to helping these poor people, but the danger posed against not making the right decision is crucial to our safety.
With the 4.1 billion the president authorized for their help, we must do two things:
End the war now.
Meantime build a sustainable and functional camps then they can easily get back to their country when it's safe and peaceful.

I think the Syrians just want to stay in their own land, in their homes with their families. Best would be if they could return

I've no idea but there's 17million people being terrorised in Syria by Isis. Do we stand there and let them die or give them safe shelter?

Safe shelter is what I support All. But our safety is also our priority. How can we do both?
McAfee, said: stabilize and support them in Turkey and Jordan.
My suggestion build a camp in North Africa,
Finish the war. Return them back.

Lol Reb, your contempt and sarcasm makes me laugh.
Glad you don't seem concerned.
You must be untouchable.
But sure my Masters degree and doctoral deserve to be respected but even with my students I never wanted to be addressed as such.
I always wanted to be treated as a student. Now that said, thanks for your input.

And might I add? Is your country participating in these concerns?

of course Reb, and I'm sure there's so many that are far more intelligent, more brilliant and capable than me, but I am here and meeting people even as sometimes difficult like you provide pleasure with me in my learning.
Thank you.

I think Muslim refugees have to be stopped and Obama should accept Christians from the Middle East but in the latest news, he did not like to meet Christian leaders seeking refuge when they are the true victims. He's showing his true colors by favoring only Muslim migrants. This is a shame, unacceptable! He prefers potential jihadists...

We welcomed everyone else into the U.S. why not the Refugees.

You are welcome.
I hope none of them have been infiltrated as most believed who carried all the weapons to use in the attack.
My respect Reb.

I am not sure if you are aware of the dangers they are saying CC. But so far 26 states must have united the same reasons why they don't approve them. I have already mentioned so many good reasons. These are difficult times. If the primary objective is to protect America from these heinous acts then we must be very thorough and rigorous in their processing. The director of Homeland Security, used that word many times, to assure the public that they are not importing these terrorists with them.
It was proven that among the migrants in Europe were so many of these terrorists. Maybe you are not listening to the news and or you don't believe.
I welcome them, but alternative suggestion of General Mcaffee, already said that we should stabilize them in two countries, end the war and put them back home.

Joy I have not seen that specific documents that he only allow muslims?
Are you kidding? The Christians are as legitimate as anyone to be treated as refugees.
Please upload that document and video if there is any relative to that statement.
Thank you.

lindsy No matter what the states want or don't want knowing how our government doesn't work the refugees will probably be brought here anyway.
I'll bet that if I chose to watch the news I will hear the stories told differently in context.

I thought you'd say something like that CC<. I have the feeling you don't care anymore who runs the system, I heard you once said, they are all the same.
Thanks CC for being here.

I think it makes sense, if they don't want to stay and fight for their rights at home, that they should be allowed to to settle in Eastern Europe so that their return journey home is easier, if nothing else.
They would probably be a very positive influence on economies in Greece, Portugal and Spain where the refugees should each be given 10 acres each, a home, two cars, food stamps, health care coverage and library cards.

Lindsy because they are all the same.They remind me of how lawyers in fact some of them are lawyers and when they are in the court room.They put on a good show in the public eye and fight like the dickens and later on arrange to play golf etc.
They also like to complicate things too.
Oh by the way I also noticed on Yahoo News where Trump said that a safe zone should be created for the refugees in their own country.
I know for sure what happens cause I've served on jury duty watching them try a case.
You're Welcome lindsy.

CC your opinions are very neutral yet they offer a very good insight and I appreciate.
Boy how many times have I on jury duties.
But you are right, sometimes a very theatrical show they put on,

The proposal of majorities of the governors are now being discussed and most choose two countries like Turkey and Jordan, then easy way back home when the war is over. So my true immediate suggestion is to end this war once and for all. Not dragging it to 27 years like Afghanistan.
Question is: What does it take to finish this war?

I am taking it that you mean The United States Of America, when you say "we". If that is the case, let me say this - (it would be pertinent in any case) - Our country is financially strapped. No ifs ands or buts about it. We have traditionally been the foster mother for the globe. Don't get me wrong, I am not at all heartless. I did, however, watch in disbelief displace persons arriving here getting housing, higher education, and cash while I worked myself to death trying to get even a fraction of what they were getting. I am not alone in this frustration. So, to many, it is going to be a real hard sell, regardless of the intensity of their circumstances or hardships. And why always US?? Don't you think it is more than fair for some other large developed countries to take on this? How about Canada? Australia? We have set this impossible precedent by harboring so many. I know it is what our mission statement says, and it used to be the case that we could shoulder it. I think other countries need to start helping. We are maxed.------ This poll is Archived ------
Rohaan, yes indeed and I hear you. We have been given the number (Americans) of 10,000 as we speak which is not a very big number in my estimates. Why only us? Not really, Europe has a large share of these people, but the problem is, the number of the true refugees is confusing as there are more economic migrants than refugees.
Now Obama announced on the G20 summit the other day that the House release $4.1 billion dollars to assist them.
If all the countries of the world would account to this expense, I am sure it is a fair responsibility.
I have been employed for the last 35 years, contributed much and much of taxes and I know we are maxed like you said. But the money is already allocated whether you and I and all the US citizens have approved it or not.
Now would you agree on the camps and or Turkey and Jordan as suggested by General Macafee?

54 thanks for joining in and voicing your opinion.
We will send them back when the war is over. But all the refugees from Vietnam? The war is over and they are still here.

I wonder why The refugees from Syria don't seek out to live in places like central or South America or Africa or Australia... or are they?

I don't know if 'agree' is the right term, but I can say that I am all for getting innocent people out of harms way as expediently as possible. I am sure most would embrace even temporary placement as opposed to the terror and fear they must live with now.
