U.S. to accept at least 10,000 Syrian refugees
(Worthy News) - The U.S. will take in "at least 10,000" refugees from Syria in fiscal 2016, which starts Oct. 1, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said on Thursday.
Administration officials on Wednesday said that since the start of the Syrian civil war, the U.S. has taken in about 1,500 people fleeing the conflict.
When counting the total number of refugees — not just Syrians — from around the world coming to the U.S., the country was on track to accept a total of 70,000 this fiscal year, Earnest said. Now the administration is looking to bump that up to closer to 75,000, he said. [ Source ]
Obama Orders US to Take 'at Least 10,000' Syrian Refugees
President Barack Obama has ordered his team to admit at least 10,000 Syrian refugees next year, the White House said Thursday, amid criticism that the United States has not done enough.
Refugees from Syria and its region must undergo strict security checks to weed out extremists, even after being registered by the United Nations.
An estimated four million Syrians have fled during four years of war. [ Source ]
This should be interesting to say the least ... so what do you think?
I think Americans are too apathetic to do anything meaningful. No one marches on D.C.
Keep them isolated somewhere until we can send them back
no
Put them all inside one of those mega churches, run off the false teacher and someone preach the gospel to them while they are here. Someone like Johnathan Cahn would do.
amen
Cunning Invasion.
He refused to let Christians in but.... it's OK to get others! SO.... let's use a huge church to house them..... preach to them ! ....if they want a place to sleep and be fed. ...they need to hear the Gospel!
Trojan horse
Time to get on our knees and commit ourselves to God for the crisis that is coming.
