Petition to the White House: Bring in 65,000 mostly Muslim Syrians to live permanently in US!
by Ann Corcoran
Editor: I know some of you who have subscribed to RRW don't like getting too many e-mails in one day, but honestly this issue is reaching a fever-pitch and we must at least try to keep up with the news being driven by the events in Europe and the uptick in lobbying activity by Obama's federal refugee contractors as they push for massive numbers of refugees, especially Syrians, to be admitted to the US in fiscal year 2016 which begins on October 1 (in a few short weeks). As a subscriber you will be getting more e-mails that are directly generated by wordpress. Also, if you are a longtime reader and think we are repeating too much information, keep in mind that we have hundreds (yesterday thousands!) of new readers every day and they need to be brought up to speed.
Here then is additional confirmation that the nine major federal refugee contractors*** are going warp speed to press the Obama Administration to bring 65,000 Syrians to the US in the closing months of the Obama Administration. I know the number 65,000! sounds like insanity (and it is), but remember these are hard left NGOs that are working to change American communities by colonizing them with third world 'diversity' and to top it off they are paid by the head to do it---by you, the US taxpayer!
They need to get as much done as possible in case a certain Republican is elected in 2016. Yesterday we told you about the International Rescue Committee David Miliband's press release pushing for 65,000 (and remember the UN is picking the Syrians from their camps and that so far of the 1,400 or so we have admitted since January 2012---95% are Sunni Muslims). The percentage jumps to 97% for this year. They are not clamoring to save Christians!
Lavinia Limon This is Lavinia Limon the CEO of USCRI. She was Bill Clinton's director of the Office of Refugee Resettlement. To learn more about her see our many posts over the years here: https://refugeeresettlementwatch.wordpress.com/?s=Lavinia+Limon
Now we see that another contractor, US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI), has started a White House Petition asking Obama for 65,000 Syrians!
Time is of the essence! Obama will be sending his annual "Determination Letter" (for FY2016) to Congress for consultation in a few short weeks. Congress usually rubber stamps whatever the President asks. You must make sure they don't rubber stamp it this time!
Here is the White House Petition (no mention of persecuted Christians!):
Resettle Syrian Refugees in the U.S
By the end of April 2015 , the UN estimated 6.5 million people had been displaced in Syria, while more than +4 million refugees had fled to countries such as Lebanon (1.2 million), Jordan (608,000) and Turkey (1.75 million) and thousands more in Europe.
Germany expects to accept 800,000 asylum seekers this year, four times more than in 2014 and more than any other EU country. The US has so fare admitted less than 1000 Syrian refugees.
United States of America; the most powerful nation, the largest economy, and the champion of democracy and human rights should stands for its values .
The International Rescue Committee has argued for the U.S. to accept at least 65,000 refugees.
We are asking the President and the government to pledge to resettle at least 65,000 Syrians by 2016. As of this writing they have 10,180 signatures and hope to reach 100,000 this month!
See our petition here. Citizens concerned about what is being done to their communities are only asking for a say in how much resettlement they get, while the contractors are looking to virtually double the number of needy people to be "seeded" into unsuspecting towns. (In recent years, Obama has admitted about 70,000 refugees each year from all over the world, 65,000, of course, would nearly double the number for FY2016).
For our thousands of new readers, here (below) are the nine major refugee contractors that like to call themselves Voluntary Agencies but are largely paid by the US taxpayer to colonize American towns. These nine phony non-profits (quasi government agencies!) are choosing the towns where Syrians will be resettled.
If you are affiliated with one of the six (in red) so-called faith groups, it is time to ask what the h*** are they doing to America in your name!
Church World Service (CWS) Ethiopian Community Development Council (ECDC) Episcopal Migration Ministries (EMM) Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS) International Rescue Committee (IRC) US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI) Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services (LIRS) United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) World Relief Corporation (WR) One final thing! This is a list of USCRI subcontractors around the US. Note they are the contractor operating in Twin Falls, Idaho. This petition tells you exactly what USCRI has in mind for your town----hundreds, perhaps thousands! of Syrians for each of them! You need to look at the list!
On second thought, one more thing! Go here to the list of 190 or so refugee subcontractors around the US. If your town or city is on the list, or even within 100 miles of any of these offices, you are a target!
Contact local elected officials and do some preemptive community organizing and demand that your community have a say in the secretive resettlement process.
I put the word "permanently" in the title of my post because I think some new readers think that we take refugees on a temporary basis. Make no mistake! If the civil war in Syria ended tomorrow and the pipeline of Syrians was fully open, the resettlement would go on for years and all those getting in would be US citizens in short order.
One commenter posted this:
I spent most of my adult life enforcing immigration law. Today I read an article which is currently available on FOX Breaking News. They quote Asst. Secretary of State, Ann Richards, as saying all of the Syrians applying for refugee status will be interviewed by Department of Homeland Security (DHS), to insure they fit the definition of a refugee?
I wish Anne could explain exactly who these experts are within DHS that can determine these people are refugees or terrorists. First, what database will these DHS employees be tapping into to investigate the backgrounds of the applicants. Surely, President Assad isn’t going to allow his war torn government to cooperate with DHS. There is no other government in Syria, so what tools are available?
This will be a perfect way to slip ISIS operatives into America. ISIS and other radical Muslim organizations will stop at nothing to infiltrate and murder Americans. They will use women and children without thinking twice, as they have, repeatedly, in the past. Look at the photos coming in from Budapest and other European cities. They show mostly young males, many of which claim they are deserters from the Syrian army.
USCIS, a subordinate organization under DHS, has suggested we could “parole” in the Syrians. If Obama, who I’m sure will acquiesce to the UN requests, gets to much push-back from the GOP, he will simply declare a “Temporary Protective Status” (TPS) order. This is yet another form of amnesty that has been around through several administrations. Although TPS does not provide a “permanent resident” status, it is usually granted and then extended for many years. All of the people granted TPS receive a social security account and an employment authorization card.
TPS has been given to many nations over the years. I have never seen or heard of any attempt to determine how many of these people voluntarily return to their native country, when the status expires. I’m quite sure that practically every single person granted TPS still remains in the U.S.. I assure you Obama has no interest in sending anyone out of this country and never will.
A country without borders is not a country. A country that doesn’t enforce it’s immigration law ceases to be a sovereign nation. The Tsarnaev family od Boston Bomber infamy were refugees, supposedly fleeing religious persecution as Muslims in Russia. After the parents obtained their permanent residence (green card) in America they voluntarilly returned to the place they supposedly feared, Russia. I’m sure they had been “vetted” by DHS, prior to being granted their lawful immigrant status. Do you think Mom & Dad surrendered their green cards at the U.S. airport from where they departed?
The Russian authorities alerted the FBI about the Tsarnaev son being back in Russia, visiting his parents, and cavorting with suspected terrorists. Did the FBI stop his return to the U.S.? Nope! Could they have? Yup!
Two words: Eff No!
insane
As Antiochian Orthodox Christian, I am aware of the fact that the Obama administration has adopted a policy of denying refugee status to Christians from Syria (at least, possibly in general) applying for asylum on the plea of fear of religious persecution.

Heck No!
Muslims = discord, disharmony, and trouble.
No more of them.
WHY DID OIL-RICH ARAB COUNTRIES ABANDON MUSLIM REFUGEES?
And where is the Arab action to rescue fellow Muslims and Arabs from the claws of ISIS?

Let’s get a White House petition going that says NO MORE IMMIGRANTS! See how they like it!
bfl
Sure. Let them live in the White House.
Bring them in and stick them on Cape Cod and Kennebunkport . . .
I don’t invite people who are trained/taught to hate me into my home and I don’t remember giving MY gov’t permission to invite muslims into MY country.
Robe wearing mullah obama, how about you enacting an executive order stating that all of the our democrat Senators - and all liberal democrats who voted for you - Must each - accept a a family of muslims out of these proposed 65,000 - to move into their own homes. Yes Mullah Obama, how about that?
Dont bring em here
Honor Killings, kidnappings, beheading people of their own religion, that is why Arab states like the Eremites, Gulf States won’t take them in.
Look its an Intra-religious Shia vs. Sunni rivalry going on long before the modern state of Israel.
Note Israel has Knesset Arab MK’s and over 1.5 million Arab citizens. This is Muslim problem. All these countries are dictatorships of one nasty stripe or the other. The Mothers milk of Terrorism in the world.
They are not clamoring to save Christians
I do not believe in wars, unfortunately it may take another war to stop all this stupidity. and the way things are going we may be well on our way.
What!?! Are you serious?
Obama, the herpes of elected people. The gift that will keep giving long after he is gone.
