My head is exploding. Pres. Obama is authorizing 10,000 Syrian refugees to enter the United States in the next 6 weeks??!!
The refugees are largely undocumented because…well, they are REFUGEES, escaping a politically dangerous environment with little but the clothes on their back. The U.S. is amenable to protecting political refugees, but in order to obtain protected status, the refugees need to tell the U.S. that they are under political persecution and their lives are in danger if they remain home. THOUSANDS of refugees are asking for such designation within the next few weeks. THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO ENTER unless their claim of refugee status is verified.
So what about the refugees allowed to enter? Should we ship hundreds of dozens of Syrian refugees to the United States? Why do they think they are safer in the U.S.? Who is paying for the airline tickets or ship travel? Charity organizations? Non-governmental organization? The American public?
I look at the images of refugees fleeing Syria, especially the young men, and I have one thought: why are you cowardly sickening bastards running? Why not stay and fight for your country? You expect the U.S. or NATO to save your country, yet you’re running into the arms of Western countries instead of turning and fighting for your country?
The U.S. should not shed one drop of blood in Iraq or Syria until foreign patriots stand up and defend their country. Otherwise, we should wait until those countries are destroyed by ISIS or al-Qaeda, anf then we should go in full-force to defeat the insurgents.
