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.
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.

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...
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.
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.

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.

Thanks CC for being here.
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.
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.
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?

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. Don't you?
thank you as i know the popular answer 'round these parts' is that no one can say anything that's any thing less than walt disney regarding syrian refugees, so a bit nervous about my post, but i do stand behind it.
