UN Orders 9000 Refugees to US

Obama Paying to Relocate 9,000 of His Muslim Buddies Here in the U.S.

The country is about to receive another “surge” in refugees, but this time, they won’t come across our southern borders. This time the refugees are Muslims, and the United Nations is involved. The United States Department of State announced recently that the first group of 9,000 refugees from Syria have been selected by the U.N. High Commissioner on Refugees (UNHCR), and will be resettled into communities all over the U.S.
WND.com has reported that resettlement agencies have been lobbying the administration to accept at least 75,000 Syrian refugees over the next five years. So far, the U.S. has accepted only 300 refugees, out of more than 3.2 million people displaced by the Syrian civil war. In the past, however, this country has been in the forefront of accepting Muslims from Iraq, Somalia and the Congo. In fact, the United States allows approximately 70,000 refugees into the country annually.

The State Department statement says the initial 9,000 Syrians are only the tip of the iceburg:

The United States accepts the majority of all UNHCR referrals from around the world. Last year, we reached our goal of resettling nearly 70,000 refugees from nearly 70 countries. And we plan to lead in resettling Syrians as well. We are reviewing some 9,000 recent UNHCR referrals from Syria. We are receiving roughly a thousand new ones each month, and we expect admissions from Syria to surge in 2015 and beyond.

The actual number of refugees America accepts is not the end of the story, however. The refugees are placed on a fast track to citizenship, and that allows them to bring their extended families into the country under the government’s Refuge Family Reunification program.

Concerns about the threats posed by Muslim immigrants remain. When an individual is afforded refugee status by the U.N. for possible resettlement in the United States, he or she is investigated by the Department of Homeland Security. That vetting process takes an average of between 18 and 24 months.

Ann Corcoran of Refugee Resettlement Watch says the U.S. is being criticized by aid groups for being slow in taking in refugees from the Syrian War. She has written that screening has been stepped up since 2009, when two Al-Qaeda members entered the country posing as Iraqi refugees. Now the government is even more concerned, alert that ISIS and other Islamic fundamentalists may be trying to enter the U.S. Thus far, Muslim countries in the Middle East have not offered a permanent home to Muslim refugees from Syria.

Since 1992, the U.S. has accepted nearly 2 million refugees from Islamic countries. Authority for the program comes from the Refugee Act of 1980. Aside from the acute security concerns, the cost of taking in refugees is enormous. Corcoran estimates the cost of the U.S. refugee resettlement program could exceed $10 billion a year.
