Syrian refugees and nearly all refugees are brought in the US by churches.

[The True Adonis]

I once lived in one of the only 25 counties in the United States that accepted refugees for years and all of them were brought in by various Church organizations partnered with the UN.  If you want to blame anyone for letting them in, its the Church, including MANY Christian organizations.  That is the real travesty behind it, at least in the United States.  

Here is an interesting article on the process.

Fleeing War, a Syrian Family Makes a New Home in North Carolina

[The True Adonis]

Some highlights of the article:

This morning, in particular, Hussein, 36, is worried about a delay in food stamps and health benefits, part of the aid package that refugees receive from the U.S. government. He knows a Syrian family in Texas who received theirs in a week, he explains, using Google Translate on his phone

[The True Adonis]

Hussein and his family landed in Greensboro on September 9, exhausted by two days of travel. They were the second Syrian family to find refuge in North Carolina last year and among just 249 Syrian refugees resettled in the United States. They knew little about America except for the notion that this is a country that celebrates individualism, which they had picked up from Arnold Schwarzenegger action films. And they knew nothing of life in Greensboro, a city of about 280,000 in the central part of the state

Sanders will put an end to this horseshit.

Feeling the Bern, buddy!

Kim LeBlanc, their caseworker with Church World Service, the resettlement agency that would help them adapt to their new life, sat in the near-empty waiting area at the airport, watching a monitor for a family of seven. She saw a woman dressed in black, her head covered in a hijab, carrying an infant; three children in winter jackets; and a man with curly black hair cradling a toddler in one arm.

The caller from UNHCR told Hussein that his application had been switched to the United States. There was no explanation. "Is that okay?" the caller asked. "And if I say no?" Hussein replied. "Then we cancel your resettlement application." He said yes.

[The True Adonis]

Officials offer no explanation for why Hussein and his family were accepted and others were rejected, left behind in Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey in refugee camps, makeshift shelters, squalid apartments, or worse. The UNHCR and the State Department do not discuss individual cases.

"Some of these first cases were just really lucky," said Sarah Ivory, director of the Church World Service's refugee program in Greensboro. "They were just processed early before there was any backlog."

The UN reported this month that 25 counties have agreed to accept 70,232 refugees. The U.S. has not set a limit, but is currently considering 10,527 whose names were submitted by the UN. The process can take up to two years. So far, just 7,000 have left for new homes. Over the next two years, the UNHCR expects to resettle 130,000.

TA melting hard...hahahaha.

Refugees arrive in the U.S. as legal residents, which means that they are entitled to a Social Security number and basic federal benefits, such as food stamps and Medicaid. The children can enroll in public schools.

Refugees also receive a one-time grant of between $925 and $1,125 per person from the federal government—for Hussein's family, that came to $6,475. The money is meant to get them through the first few months. Additional short-term assistance is available for up to six months. Then they are on their own




Hussein and his family say they didn't know what to expect from life in America, but it certainly wasn't poverty. It wasn't the utility bills that weigh on Hussein. It wasn't an hour bus ride to the health department for immunization shots. Or a half-hour bus trip to the supermarket.

Last year Ivory's agency resettled more than 234 refugees from 11 countries and 30 ethnic groups. They find their way to Greensboro because of family ties or simply because Church World Service, one of nine resettlement agencies that work with the State Department, has an office there and is able to help with housing, schools, and jobs. But it's local volunteers who provide the support families depend on to adjust to a strange and often lonely life.

TA melting hard...hahahaha.

I don't support the disgusting Christian and other religious shit churches that open the doors like this.  THEY are the ones bringing them here.

The Republicans only came around after the Paris attacks.  Before they were just fine with letting the refugees come in.

Go ahead, support your Church.  This is the shit they do.

Two days after Hussein and his family landed, the Kuseybis pulled up in front of the bungalow that Church World Service had found for them and unloaded the donations.

The couple took the children to a park and out for ice cream. Before Halloween, they took everyone to a pumpkin patch and for a hayride. They took Hussein and Aysha to the Department of Motor Vehicles for identity cards and Hussein to the doctor twice for his high blood pressure.

Zane arranged for Internet service so that the family can use social media websites to keep in touch with relatives still at home and spread across the Middle East.

Sometimes, Aysha cries when Lana leaves. In Syria, she was always surrounded by relatives. And even in Jordan, her neighbors were Syrian refugees like her. Resettlement workers say that these highs and lows are typical for refugee families. "Is it worth it?" Lana wonders. "I struggle with that answer all the time. All I can say is, I hope it will be.

And the Muslim call to prayer, an echo of another life, came into the house five times a day in Arabic through an app on the smartphone.

There were some setbacks too. Hussein failed the written test for a driver's license, administered in Arabic, stumped by questions like the one about the alcohol level for drunk driving, an issue he had never considered because as a Muslim he doesn't drink.

[The True Adonis]

Hussein drives his Honda minivan. When he first took the written test for a North Carolina driver's license, he was stumped by a question on the legal limit for a motorist’s blood alcohol content. As a Muslim who doesn't drink, he had never thought about it.  Mostly, he was frustrated that he was not working.

[The True Adonis]

  

Even with a job, Hussein still worries about the bills, which he can barely cover with his earnings from his $8-an-hour job with irregular hours.

But it's the loss of dignity that hurts him the most. As the Arabic saying goes, "Better to die in your own country with dignity rather than live in another as a stranger with no dignity."

[The True Adonis]

Hussein pulls out the notification from the Housing Authority of the City of High Point. The rent for the subsidized house is half of what he pays now, and includes utilities. He shows me pictures. The house is brick, with three bedrooms and a bigger kitchen with newer appliances. And it's only five minutes from his job.

I guess the priests feel that these refugees are less likely to sue or go to the police?

All religion all of it is shit

They are the ones who have to initiate the whole process. Basically, what you have is these Church organizations vouching for and doing all of the paperwork for these refugees.  They file it by the thousands and then hook them all up with government programs, as many as they can get them on.  The Churches do get incentives for all of this.

Its a shame that we let Churches basically run immigration from Islamic countries and then take away the programs that could help those already here and trying to work. 

Yes, your churches do deserve a LARGE amount of blame for this.

[Set It Up]

If church mattered or was real people like coach wouldnt be arrogant loud mouthed little pricks. What church agrees with the way he acts? Coach is a living example of the stupidity of churches and religion. Unless there is a church of being a loudmouth arrogant dickhead that i dont know about.
