Israel also agreed to take in some orphaned Syrian children, and they have also allowed some Aleppo victims needing medical care come to to get treatment in Israel. It is gestures like these that give hope to some level of improved relations in the middle east.

When one considers the numbers of refugees Europe has taken in vs the U. S. and that FEAR now dominates from the Trump administration ….
Once we admired courage. Now fear is promoted AND so very many people allow themselves this fear.
And now the very people who helped us in Iraq, laid their lives on the line, literally are at the least held up from coming in. If they go back to Iraq their lives are in huge danger. So much for our integrity.
How many Muslims will now lay their lives on the line for us again? Insanity.

Another local group’s family didn’t quite make it in time. Their apartment is ready and waiting for them. We have a lot more to worry about from “born and bred” Americans than we do immigrants. The alt-right lives in an alt-reality.
