United Nations unhappy with slow movement of
Syrians to permanent resettlement, by
Ann Corcoran. 5/11/16
Not much new from the New York Times as they point out that Obama could be embarrassed at the
fall session of the UN because the flow of Syrian Muslims to your towns is
going too slowly for Ban Ki-moon.
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon
wants Obama to step up the Syrian Muslim resettlement to the US. Obama will be
on the hot seat at fall meeting of UN if he doesn’t deliver! Trump should use
that September meeting to highlight his views on relinquishing our sovereignty
to the UN.
There are two bits of information in
here that were somewhat informative and that is why I am posting it. Here is
how the NY
Times story begins:
UNITED NATIONS — The Obama
administration’s effort to step up asylum for Syrian refugees is going so
slowly, it may not meet the president’s deadline for accepting at least 10,000
by the end of the fiscal year.
More than seven months since the
president pledged to resettle the most vulnerable Syrians, the United States
has let in less than a fifth of that number — 1,736 through the end of April,
according to government figures.
That slow pace could undermine the administration’s diplomatic push to
advance the cause of refugees at a time when other countries are putting up
taller barriers to their entry. President Obama and the United Nations secretary
general, Ban Ki-moon, have said they will raise the issue of refugee
resettlement at this year’s General Assembly session, and Mr. Ban issued a
report on Monday calling on world leaders to rally around a new “compact on
responsibility-sharing for refugees.”
This is the first bit of information
you should know. I’ve been telling you about how the NO-borders agitators
are attempting to broaden the definition of what is a refugee. Watch for a
push for us to take in “climate refugees.”
The
report that Mr. Ban issued this week also pressed countries to start
negotiating a deal to embrace migrants who are crossing borders for reasons
other than war, including “hazards related to climate change.” Those
discussions, which he said he hoped would start this year, are likely to be
even thornier.
And, this is why Russia could continue to
gain dominance in the world—-they aren’t taking in the mostly Muslim
Syrian refugees! Putin isn’t marching to Ban’s orders! Of course, China
doesn’t take refugees either. Their thinking surely goes along these
lines—why burden our economies, bring in cultural upheaval and possible Islamic
agitators.
Russia, a major supporter
of the government of President Bashar al-Assad of Syria, has not resettled a
single Syrian refugee, according to the United Nations. More here.
Just checking “government figures”
as of May 10th. We admitted 1,943 Syrian refugees (of the 10,000 Obama wants) and 1,922
were some flavor of Muslim. That keeps the percentage at 99% Muslim for the
Syrians resettled in your states so far this fiscal year.
