[THIS] ".. USA To accept 1500 This
year.." is code-Word for Accepting

I told you before Jack, Let us
know where you are so we
can return you to the asylum
for stupid people.
Jack
Schmuk!

And how many of the !0,000 Syrians
the US is planing to kill or make them
disappear???
If one million people disappear in the
US every year, that means the 10,000
Syrians are expected to disappear in
about 4 days !!
David
What's wrong with that. Infact
that's great news. I do hope
you are part 10 thousand

I will never leave the
safety and dignity of
my Arab country!
David
Dignity in an Arab country,
are you a comedian. What's
dignified about women
subjugation, the suppression
of other religions, the non
tolerance of human rights,
the list could go on and on.
The only dignified place in the
ME is Israel.

they are all criminals! they should be
applying in Turkey for emigration.
the young men chanting and getting
aggressive are cowards who have
fled the fight for their country

It wasn't too long ago that there were
protests all over the world. The
protesters held signs that said "Hands
off Syria". OK Now you want what?

It just proves the bigots are a minority

I hope you have taken it upon
yourself Merlijin to open your
house to the Syrians, after all
charity starts at home right.
Merlijn Taams
I hope you're
actually interested in
helping refugees and
don't just say that
because it's a
common anti-
refugee thing to say
David?
Are you a bigot or
believe refugees
should be treated as
refugees, because
it's the law?

Sure I am interested
in helping refugees,
genuine ones, not
the open door policy
that the EU has
imposed on Europe.
Where I'm from we
are taking only a few
and they will go
through a process
before we accept
them.

EU has no open door
policy to asylum

refugees because

The US is making plans to accept 10,000 Syrian
refugees in the coming budget year, the White
House has said, a significant increase from the
1,500 migrants that have been cleared to resettle
in the US since civil war broke out in the Middle
Eastern country more than four years ago.
In a news conference on Thursday, White House
spokesman John Earnest said: "One thing that the
United States can do is to begin to admit more
Syrian refugees into the United States, this year,
the fiscal year that ends at the end of this month.
"The United States is on track to take in about
1,500 Syrian refugees. The president has
directed his team to scale up that number, next
year.
"He has informed his team that he would like
them to accept, at least make preparations, to
accept at least 10,000 Syrian refugees in the next
fiscal year."
The Obama adminstration has been under
increasing pressure to do more than just provide
money to help meet the humanitarian crisis in
Europe.
"The solution here is to meet the most urgent
immediate needs of Syrian refugees, to make
sure that we can provide basic medical care,
basic shelter, basic food and water and even
some other things, like internationally run schools
in these refugee camps, to try to provide for the
basic needs of those Syrians that have been
forced from their homes," Earnest said.
Earnest said that about $4bn that the
administration has provided to relief agencies
and others is the most effective way for the US
to help meet the crisis.
But he told journalists that President Barack
Obama has decided that admitting more Syrian
refugees next year would help boost the US
response. The 2016 budget year begins on
October 1.
Tens of thousands of people from war-torn
countries in the Middle East and Africa have
risked their lives during desperate attempts to
seek safe haven in Europe.
Thousands of refugees arriving in Hungary have
been taken to closely guarded camps surrounded
by chain link fencing, barbed wire and patrolled
with police dogs.
Hungarian police said on Thursday that 3,300
refugees were taken to camps on Wednesday for
initial processing after crossing the Serbian-
Hungarian border.
'Not enough to make an impact'
Human Rights First, a non-profit organisation,
said on Thursday that the Obama
Administration's plans to resettle 10,000 Syrian
refugees are not enough to make a significant
impact on the global refugee crisis.
"The organisation urges the Obama
Administration to lead a global effort to address
the situation, including a commitment to resettle
at least 100,000 Syrian refugees during the next
fiscal year," the group said in a statement.
"This is not leadership, it is barely a token
contribution given the size and scale of the global
emergency.
"The administration’s announcement that it will
commit to take in at least 10,000 Syrian refugees
is far too little and is only a drop in the bucket
toward providing protection to the more than 4
million Syrians who have fled their country due to
horrific violence and persecution," said Human
Rights First’s Eleanor Acer.
Millions of Syrian refugees have fled their country
in search of security away from the civil war,
where a state of armed conflict has persisted for
the past five years.
