Syrian refugees admitted into US since Paris jihad murders in November: 525 Muslims, 1 Christian<\/h1>\n
Relax, kaffir. What could possibly go wrong? Barack Obama and John Kerry have magic powers that shelter them from the consequences of their actions. They need not be concerned about the fact that last February, the Islamic State boasted it would soon flood Europe with as many as500,000 refugees<\/a>. And the Lebanese Education Minister recently said<\/a> that there were 20,000 jihadis among the refugees in camps in his country. Meanwhile, 80% of migrants<\/a> who have recently come to Europe claiming to be fleeing the war in Syria aren\u2019t really from Syria at all.<\/p>\n So why are they claiming to be Syrian and streaming into Europe, and now the U.S. as well? AnIslamic State operative<\/a> gave the answer when he boasted in September, shortly after the migrant influx began, that among the flood of refugees, 4,000 Islamic State jihadis had already entered Europe. He explained their purpose: \u201cIt\u2019s our dream that there should be a caliphate not only in Syria but in all the world, and we will have it soon, inshallah.\u201d These Muslims were going to Europe in the service of that caliphate: \u201cThey are going like refugees,\u201d he said, but they were going with the plan of sowing blood and mayhem on European streets. As he told this to journalists, he smiled and said, \u201cJust wait.\u201d We are waiting in the U.S. as well.<\/p>\n \u201cSyrian Refugees Admitted Since Paris Attacks: 525 Muslims, 1 Christian,\u201d by Patrick Goodenough, CNS News<\/a>, January 25, 2016 (thanks to The Religion of Peace<\/a>):<\/p>\n (CNSNews.com) \u2013 The United States has admitted 526 Syrian refugees since Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS\/ISIL) terrorists attacked Paris last November, and just one (less than 0.2 percent) is a Christian.<\/p>\n Sunni Muslims account for 512 (97.3 percent) of the 526 Syrian refugees approved for resettlement in the U.S. since the Nov. 13 attacks, which prompted fresh concerns that terrorists could use refugee admission programs to enter Western countries.<\/p>\n The remaining 13 comprise three Shi\u2019ites and ten refugees identified as \u201cMoslem,\u201d according to data from the State Department Refugee Processing Center.<\/p>\n The lopsided proportion of Sunni Muslims to Christians admitted since Paris largely mirrors that since the beginning of fiscal year 2016:\u00a0 Over that period, which began Oct. 1, 817 Syrian refugees have been admitted, of whom six (0.7 percent) are Christians and 798 (97.6 percent) are Sunnis.<\/p>\n Looking further back, of the 2,690 Syrian refugees admitted into the U.S. since the civil war started in March 2011, 54 (2.0 percent) are Christians and 2,517 (93.5 percent) are Sunni Muslims. (The remainder are other minorities, including Shi\u2019ites, heterodox Muslims, Zoroastrians and atheists.)<\/p>\n In contrast to those Christian\/Sunni ratios \u2013 0.19 percent\/97.3 percent since the Paris attacks; 0.7 percent\/97.6 percent in FY 2016; and 2.0 percent\/93.5 percent since the conflict began \u2013 Christians account for an estimated 10 percent of the Syrian population, and Sunnis for an estimated 74 percent.<\/p>\n Whether fleeing from the Assad regime, ISIS, other opposition groups, airstrikes by the U.S.-led coalition or by the regime-supporting Russians, or from violence and collapsing services and infrastructure in general, more than 4.5 million Syrians have fled their homeland since the civil war began and are registered with the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).<\/p>\n President Obama has pledged to take in 10,000 Syrian refugees during FY 2016.<\/p>\n Administration officials have said that while persecution on the grounds of religion is one of five grounds for determining whether an applicant should be granted refugee status, the U.S. admission program does not and should not prioritize one religion over another.<\/p>\n (The criteria, as per the 1951 Refugee Convention, are persecution for reasons of religion, race, nationality, political opinion or membership of a particular social group.)<\/p>\n One senior State Department official told lawmakers last month that Christians were underrepresented among U.S. Syria refugee admissions because fewer Christians were leaving \u2013 because they feel safe<\/a> (in some cases because they support the Assad regime).<\/p>\n However, the international Christian charity Barnabas Fund estimates that some 600,000 Syrian Christians have fled their homes so far.<\/p>\n In a recent op-ed<\/a> in a British daily George Carey, the former Archbishop of Canterbury \u2013 the titular head of the world\u2019s Anglicans\/Episcopalians \u2013 decried the response from Western governments and churches to the targeting of Christians in particular at the hands of ISIS.<\/p>\n \u201cSo serious is the problem that you might expect the nations of the West would come to the rescue of these historic Christian communities, or that the Church would be demanding the world act now,\u201d he wrote. \u201cFar from it.\u201d<\/p>\n Carey went on to quote Barnabas Fund\u2019s observation that \u201c[w]hile displaced Muslims may find safety in neighboring areas controlled by their own faction and armed forces, or escape to friendly areas, Christians do not have these options.\u201d<\/p>\n He urged British Prime Minister David Cameron Carey [sic] to find ways to admit \u201ca good number of Christian Syrians\u201d among refugees to be allowed to resettle in Britain. Cameron has pledged to welcome up to 20,000 Syrian refugees over five years.<\/p>\n The Australian government, meanwhile, pledged last September to prioritize among 12,000 Syrian refugees it will take in \u201cthose most in need \u2013 the women, children and families of persecuted minorities<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n Australian Muslim groups complained, but the government is unrepentant. Immigration Minister Peter Dutton last week reiterated that persecuted minorities will be prioritized, saying that while the U.N. can make referrals Australia will ultimately decide who to accept<\/a>\u2026.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Read the Original Article at Jihad Watch<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
