Jeb Bush: Let's Focus On Helping Christian Syrian Refugees, Rather Than Muslims

[thereisnospoon]

We shouldn't take any at all, period.

Make some "safe space" for them there, in their own region.

We've never before used a religious litmus test for refugees. Fuck that.

We've never had millions of members of a bloodthirsty cult trying to immigrate here. These are people who have said they would like to impose Sharia on us all.

Fuck you.

Really? Which Syrian refugees said that?

You actually believe that's a serious question?

Ah, you're just talking out your ass then.

So there are no Muslims terrorists. Thanks for clearing that up

That headline isn't correct.
The real story is that the passport of a Syrian refugee was found next to a dead terrorist.
It hasn't yet been confirmed that it belonged to one of the terrorists.

Yeah, because it could easily have been one of the patrons who bought tickets to see an American rock band who had the Syrian passport

Yep, or it could have been planted there, or it could have belonged to the terrorist...who knows at this point?

You'd make a real shitty cop. Your powers of deduction are beyond ignorant.

Really?
Cops should make an immediate deduction without investigation?
In that case you're probably right.

All they had to do was look at the picture in the passport, moron.

He might not have had a face to look at.

The Syrian passport found near the remains of a suicide bomber at the Stade de France intrigues French investigators for many reasons.

“The single most intriguing fact is that the passport was there at all,” one French official source said. “It was not actually on the terrorist’s body, or what remained of it. It was lying nearby, as if meant to be found.”

French investigators fear that the apparent “planting” of the passport is part of a sophisticated propaganda war being waged by Isis. “There are three possibilities,” one source said. “He is the man whose name is on the passport. He was a false refugee, travelling on a false passport. Or he is someone else and a false passport was deliberately left there to sow confusion.”

In all three cases, Isis appears to have set out to stoke popular anger against Syrian migrants as part of their campaign to foment anti-Muslim feeling.

Ursula von der Leyen, Germany’s Defence Minister, appeared to doubt that Mr Almuhamed, whoever he may be, had taken part in the attack. She said linking the refugee crisis to the threat of terrorism would be wrong. “Terrorism is so well organised that it doesn’t have to risk … the sometimes life-threatening crossings at sea.”

Why the passport found near a Paris suicide bomber is intriguing French investigators

Glad to see Jeb has been taking my posts here to heart. Good man.

I think it is funny that the guys who claim to be Christian would not give a fellow Christian shelter. This all less than 2 months to Christmas...

Mary & Joseph; Inkeeper ring a bell?

The ironry is astounding.

They wanted shelter for a night, not a place to live for 20 generations, ruining it for those who's home it was.

Syrian Refugees don't want to move to America. They are looking to be sheltered from violence. IT is very easy to create a VISA that only lasts as long as the area is unsafe for Christians. We get it in the ear all day from the RW how America is a Christian country but when it comes to pony up they get all shy...

Please could none of these ala carte Christians give us any lectures on mortality... You use the Bible to forward your narrow agenda...

Why not just create refugee camps for them in Jordan or Iraq?

Why not put all American Muslims in detention camps, like the Japanese in WWII? You know, for national security.

We aren't discussing American citizens, moron. We're talking about foreign refugees. There's absolutely no reason to admit them to this country. We've never done it in the past, so why should we start doing it now?

How does ISIS benefit from being bombed into the stone age?

The U.S. has a proud history of admitting refugees of special humanitarian concern into the country. Following the admission of over 250,000 displaced Europeans in the wake of World War II, the first refugee legislation enacted by the U.S. Congress was the Displaced Persons Act of 1948. This legislation provided for the admission of an additional 400,000 displaced Europeans.

Later laws provided for admission of persons fleeing Communist regimes from Hungary, Poland, Yugoslavia, Korea and China, and Cuba. Most of these waves of refugees were assisted by private ethnic and religious organizations in the U.S. which formed the basis for the public/private role of U.S. refugee resettlement today.

In 1975 the U.S. resettled hundreds of thousands of Indochinese refugees through an ad hoc Refugee Task Force with temporary funding.

Riiight...because if you were going to plant a passport next to a body for political purposes you'd make sure it had the original photo.
Those terrorists sure are dumb, eh?

What do the terrorists have to gain by planting a fake Syrian passport on the perps?

Bush said that the U.S. should use a careful screening process to ensure the refugees it accepts are Christian.

In the wake of the Paris terror attacks, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) said Sunday that American aid toward refugees should be geared toward Christians who are fleeing persecution in Syria, as opposed to those who are Muslim.

"I think we need to do thorough screening and take in a limited number," Bush said on CNN's "State of the Union" on Sunday. "There are a lot of Christians in Syria that have no place now. They'll be either executed or imprisoned, either by Assad or by ISIS. We should focus our efforts as it relates to the refugees for the Christians that are being slaughtered."

Religion should have nothing to do with which refugees are accepted - so long as they go through a careful screening process. Our "Godless" Constitution gives us a "secular" government that applies equally to all religions - and Atheists. To my knowledge - there has never been a religious test for previous refugees throughout American history. No preferential treatment for Christian refugees!

The problem you have with that theory--is that Muslims have a religion called Islam and that's why they just massacred 129 in France. The are slaughtering innocents based on their religion.

Therefore they have made their religion OUR BUSINESS--when it comes to letting them into this country.

ISIS killed them all.

Furthermore, what does that have to do with where we put Syrian refugees?

Attacks from the West are proof that Islam is engaged in a Holy War...great for recruitment and motivating the faithful.
