Obama Admin Considers Resettling Syrian Refugees in U.S.
2013-06-12
"The United States usually accepts about half the refugees that the U.N. agency proposes for resettlement. California has historically taken the largest share, but Illinois, Florida, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia are also popular destinations
("popular destinations"..?!)."

#7  Can they not be resettled in some Muslim paradise such as Soddyland, Kuwait, Egypt, Jordan, etc.? Why America?

What "skills" do the Syrian Resistance have that they can add to our communities?


At least one of them knows how to turn a heart into a meal.

#5  Areas of Alaska could use a community out there, in the back, without neighbors to bother them. In fact there are a number of unpopulated islands in the Aleutians that would be prime for development.

#4  Settle them and they rarely assimilate and never go back.

Better to take a page from the Palestinian book and establish refigee canmps until Syria is safe enough to return. Put those camps in Kurdish Iraq (for any Kurd refugees) and Lebanon (for any Christian or Shi'te) and Jordan (for Sunni). Then the neighbors are invested in ensuring the covil war is settled.

#3  Popular destinations ?

Evil Islamophovic, historic republican enclave communities of course. Begin the gerrymandering Voting Rights Act legal actions at once! You know the drill.

#2  Settle them in predominantly rich Democratic Party neighborhoods. Just what the US needs...combat trained Moslems and shell shocked Moslem families.

Moslems ready to fight for what they believe in as your neighbors. In the schools, in the supermarkets. And as we know in Boston, they adapt so well to American community life.

Sent them by the thousands, Obummer. Follow your inner Hussein.

Of course, settling them all around Hollywood might have its good points. West Texas needs population...and its dry and hot just like back in the Middle East. How about southern Arizona...out toward Ajo somewhere....near the Mexican border. Let the incoming meet the incoming.

What "skills" do the Syrian Resistance have that they can add to our communities? How do you spell "can of worms"?

#1  Despite its extant humanitarianism, I'm interpreting this as yet another sign the Bammer has failed or lost in Syria.

WHICH IN TURN IS N-O-T GOOD VEE IRAQ, AFPAK, IRAN'S NUCPROG, + ESPEC AGZ CHINA OVER IN EAST ASIA [ECS + SCS].

Iff the Bammer's goal remains the formal removal of Assad from power, the only way he can effec do it now is to send in US ground troops to do what the Rebs didn't.
