"But despite growing protests by local residents against the refugee arrivals, the Twin Falls area can count on being a prime spot for refugees for years to come, thanks to one man's rising business enterprise.

That man is Hamdi Ulukaya, a Kurdish Muslim and immigrant from Turkey who created the billion-dollar U.S.-based Chobani yogurt empire.

Five companies have already taken him up on the idea. Ikea, MasterCard, Airbnb, LinkedIn, Western Union and UPS have all agreed to hire more refugees or provide free services to them."

Do NOT buy CHOBANI Yogurt anymore!

This guy isn’t “American”. He’s Muslim. He’s Turkish.

He’s a Democrat. Of course he wants to flood Idaho with immigrants. He wants to be Governor someday, doesn’t he?

If this guy says he’s a Kurd, why does he want to import tons of people who want to kill Kurds?

He’s not a Kurd.

Eat less yogurt and send them back to their hellholes taking this jerk with them.

Hiring more ‘refugees’ means higher in-company disappearances of product - the companies owe them, you know.

I was going to move back to Idaho after retirement. I’m thinking that’s probably a bad idea now.

Well, I have been looking for another yogurt since they stopped making the mint with the chocolate bits. Now I have a reason to look for another brand.
