Muslim refugees, yes – Christian refugees, no

Christians are in imminent danger across the world, and yet they are being refused refugee status, while Muslim refugee immigration goes on unimpeded.

U.S. policy regarding refugee resettlement would shock most Americans if they only knew. The United Nations picks who gets to come to the U.S. as a refugee. The mandate of the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is to determine which of the world's huddled masses comes to the U.S. as humanitarian refugees. And predictably, this U.N. body is favoring Muslims. Christians from Muslim lands are being refused refugee status.

This is occurring despite the fact that in their home countries, under the Shariah, Christians face persecution and many times certain death for their religious beliefs. At the same time, whole Muslim communities are entering the U.S. by the tens of thousands per month, despite the fact that in their home countries they face no religious persecution.

This is no accident. We know that the U.N. is driven largely by its largest bloc of countries, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation. The OIC is one of the largest intergovernmental organizations in the world. It is a religious and political organization with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, an organization dedicated in its own words to "eliminating and destroying Western civilization from within."

It is horrifying but true that Afghan Christians are being refused refugee status by the U.N. and many Western nations, including Great Britain. The U.N. claims that Afghan Christians do not meet the criteria for refugee status that is stipulated in Statute 6B of the UNHCR, which requires refugees to have "a well founded fear of persecution by reason of his race, religion, nationality or political opinion."

Is this why we expended incalcuable blood and treasure in Afghanistan? So that Christians would face persecution and slaughter? What was the objective? Shariah?

UNHCR trends for 2006 indicated that worldwide there were more than 32.9 million "persons of concern," including around 11 million who were designated as "refugees." Most of these came from Somalia, Darfur in the Sudan, Ethiopia, Iraq, Pakistan and Myanmar – all Muslim countries except Myanmar and Ethiopia (which has a huge Muslim population). That means that many refugees from these countries are non-Muslims seeking to escape religious persecution. But they are just the ones being denied.

The U.S. ranks third among the world's nations in the number of refugees we host. Since 1976, millions of new citizens have entered the United States as legal humanitarian refugees, according to reports from the U.S. State Department. The large groups of Somalis that have recently come to the U.S. are certified as "humanitarian refugees" under our State Department rules. Whole Muslim communities are imported into the United States. When they get here, they are supported by social services provided by the Office of Refugee Resettlement of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The cities that receive these huge numbers of refugees are determined by Refugee Councils.

WILL IRAN UNDO OBAMA LIKE IT DID JIMMY CARTER?
The Iranian Hostage Crisis, which began on November 4, 1979 and continued 444 agonizing days, was a huge factor in undoing the presidency of Jimmy Carter. Will Iran play a similar role in defeating Barack Obama who was elected president on November 4, 2008, the 29th anniversary of the Iranian Hostage Crisis?

With early reports indicating that the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt may win as high as 40% of the seats in that soon to be Islamic disaster area of a country’s elections, this 4-part documentary (I received via email earlier this week) on the Brotherhood featuring candid comments by MB members and opponents in Egypt and Europe is especially important.

This would be a great series of videos to get a skeptical friend to watch if they are still open to learning the truth about the aims and strategies of the MB.

the United Nations is a bunch of crap; they should not be deciding anything for us, and most certianly not our immigration policy. the persecuted Christians in Muslim countries suffer terribly but they are denied acess to Western countries, while Muslim “refugees” pour in unabated. when will our leaders wake up to this demographic danger?

ott, but why are the OIC & the Arab League considered legitimate organizations? Something called the Organization of Christian Countries or the Caucasian League would be, I suspect, considered racist & discriminatory.

A churchgoer who left pork products outside a mosque during a hate campaign against Muslims has been put behind bars.
John White, 63, left rashers of bacon outside the religious building in South Shields, and similar products outside worshippers’ homes.
‘Such foul discrimination is offensive to all right minded people, regardless of their religious beliefs.’
But the judge said White, who lives near the mosque and has attended a church in the same street for over 30 years, must be kept in custody until he is sentenced in September.
So, White will be kept in prison until his sentence is passed in September – for 5 counts of “religiously aggravated harassment, alarm or distress.
Afghan Christians might be expected to behave intolerably like above.
A taxi driver ranted racial abuse outside a Jewish school after getting stuck in a traffic jam.
Taha Osman shrieked ‘All Jewish children must die!’ after his car was hemmed in by parents picking up pupils outside King David School in Crumpsall.
Two mums on the school run and a teaching assistant were singled out in a foul-mouthed and ‘frightening’ tirade witnessed by kids, Manchester Crown Court heard.
Osman – an Iraqi Kurd who has settled in Britain – also shouted that Jewish people were ‘animals’ who ‘should not be allowed in this country’.
Now there is good British behaviour and a welcome addition to the country.

Well I guess we know now why Obama never wanted to address the immigration policy; what a traitor!! I am convinced he is the ONE mentioned in the bible.
