Japanese court rejects Syrians’ asylum bids, by Ann Corcoran
3/20/18
Japan
is one of the few countries in the world steadfastly attempting to maintain its
“cultural and ethnic homogeneity” in the face of mounting pressure to open its
borders.
See my posts over the years as western mainstream media, the United
Nations, and international communists and open borders agitators regularly
criticize Japan’s wish to save itself (just as they are now doing the same to
Hungary and Poland).
Have
you noticed that there are no Islamic terror attacks in Japan? Japan for the
Japanese….. From Reuters at USNews:
TOKYO (Reuters) – Two Syrian asylum seekers on Tuesday lost a bid to
overturn a government decision to deny them refugee status, in the first such
lawsuit in Japan since civil war erupted in the Middle Eastern state in 2011.
The
Tokyo District Court upheld a government ruling made five years ago, that the
pair’s bid for asylum was not admissible under international refugee law.
“The world understands the Syrian situation – it’s getting worse. But
the Japanese court hasn’t understood that at all,” one of the plaintiffs, Joude
Youssef, told a news conference. [The nerve! So Middle Eastern
countries can’t stop fighting among themselves and that is Japan’s problem!—ed]
Speaking
in Arabic through a Japanese interpreter, Youssef said he planned to appeal the
court’s decision.
The
second asylum seeker was not at the news conference.
Lawyers
said Youssef had the right to stay in Japan, under a humanitarian status that
allows residency but not full refugee rights. It was not clear if the second
plaintiff would appeal.
Notice
how the Reuters reporter can’t help
but throw in this next bit about worker shortages and an aging population
implying that the Japanese are stupid and should be inviting in the third world
workers (who would of course change Japan forever!).
Immigration and asylum
are sensitive subjects in Japan, where many pride themselves on cultural and
ethnic homogeneity even amid a shrinking population and the worst labor
shortage since the 1970s.
Youssef,
a Kurd from the north of Syria, had applied for asylum in Japan in 2012, after
saying he was persecuted for organizing pro-democracy demonstrations.
The Japanese government rejected the claim a year later, saying he
lacked proof of his involvement in protests in Syria.
The
second plaintiff had claimed asylum after refusing military service in
Syria. [Think about this,
because he refused military service in Syria he expects Japan to take care of
him!—ed]
Although
a major donor to international aid organizations, Japan has remained reluctant
to take in refugees.
It accepted only 20 last year, with a record 19,628 people applying for
asylum. Japan,
hang in there!
