Another 16 detainees that Australia refuses to
resettle are on their way to four locations in US, by

President Trump promised the Aussies that we would take up to 1,250 of those the Australians don’t want in their country—Obama’s dumb deal is Trump’s dumb deal now.
“It’s time the government faced up to the failure of offshore detention and the US resettlement deal. All the refugees and asylum seekers should be brought to safety in Australia.”
President Trump promised the Aussies that we would take up to 1,250 of those the Australians don’t want in their country—Obama’s dumb deal is Trump’s dumb deal now.

We
learn from Radio
New Zealand that the 16 ‘refugees’ from Muslim
countries are going to Chicago, Las Vegas, Texas and Arizona (cities in TX and
AZ not named).
Trump’s
travel ban has eliminated those from Somalia, Sudan and Iran, but golly-gee,
this bunch is from those safe countries of Afghanistan, Pakistan
and Rohingya from Bangladesh/Burma.
Radio New Zealand:
Another 16 refugees, including three children left Nauru yesterday to be
resettled in the United States.
The group comprised, four Afghans, four Pakistanis, three single
Rohingyans; and one Rohingya couple and their three children.
The Refugee Action Coalition said they would be settled in various
locations, including Chicago, Las Vegas, Texas and Arizona.
This
bring the total number of refugees from Nauru resettled in the US to 155, while
just 85 refugees from Papua New Guinea’s Manus have so far been accepted into
America.
About
750 refugees remain on Manus and about a thousand on Nauru where they were
detained by Australia five years ago.
Radio New Zealand continues….No Iranians, Somalis or Sudanese have been
accepted for resettlement in the US this year, after US President Donald Trump
tried to ban people from the Muslim countries from entering America.
“The
[Australian] government’s claim that the US deal is going to provide
resettlement for the refugees they have kept on Manus and Nauru is less
credible by the day,” Mr Rintoul said.
“They
have admitted that up to 500 refugees will be left behind on Manus and Nauru
regardless of the US deal, yet they refuse to accept New Zealand’s offer to
resettle 150 people,” he said.
Do
whatever you have to do Australia, but these illegal aliens are NOT our
problem!
Pottery barn rule does not apply! I repeat: this is
Malcolm Turnbull’s political problem, not ours!

As
always, don’t like what you see, contact the White House, link
in upper right hand column here. I assure you that this ‘deal’ is way out of
the ordinary for the international understanding of how ‘refugees’ (are they
even refugees?) are to be resettled.
