The Center for Security Policy<\/a> recently posted an article listing the things all Americans need to know about the current wave of Syrian refugees<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The list is a as follows:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Many are not from Syria<\/a>. They are not refugees–they are migrants. That would be fine if they were willing to assimilate rather than trying to recreate the mess that they left.<\/li>\n
  2. Most of them are not widowed women or orphaned children. According to a Pew Research Center<\/a> review of Eurostat<\/a> data, 72 percent of asylum applicants are male<\/a>, and over half are men under the age of 40.<\/li>\n
  3. Those in charge of ensuring our security don’t think that the refugees can be properly vetted.<\/li>\n
  4. Most are not from the minority groups ISIS targets for persecution.<\/li>\n
  5. Some have ISIS sympathies.According to the article: Some 16 to 23 percent<\/a> of the estimated 3 million Syrian refugees who have fled the country are Christians<\/a>. Even though ISIS has specifically targeted religious minorities (notably Christians and Yazidis<\/a>) for persecution, less than 3 percent<\/a> of the Syrian refugees admitted to the United States<\/a> so far are Christian, and 96 percent are Muslim.<\/li>\n
  6. It costs more money to resettle refugees in the U.S. than in countries that neighbor Syria.<\/li>\n
  7. The wealthy Arab-Islamic countries<\/a> surrounding Syria aren’t taking refugees because of security concerns.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The article concludes:<\/p>\n

    Critics of President Obama\u2019s<\/a> plan for resettling Syrian refugees in the U.S. are labeled xenophobic bigots by those seeking warm fuzzy feelings and accolades for doing the supposed \u201cright thing.\u201d\u00a0 It\u2019s time for the president to stop demonizing his opponents, take a look at the facts, realize that they run counter to his narrative, and change course before we\u2019re placed in a dangerous situation similar to the one Europe now faces.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    It is time to mix common sense with compassion, something the Obama Administration seems reluctant to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
