$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('ROCKMAN', 'O')utcast - I agree with you about the INTENT. The rediculous part is how they framed the conversation. From what I can tell the President used the term ban but his folks are trying to explain it's a DELAY in the processing to make sure they know who we're letting in. But we will ban those with criminal records and, unfortunately, those with no documented paper trails proving who they are. Obviously with the deteriorated conditions in many of the countries such records were either destroyed or never existed in the first place.

How do you it's safe to allow a 30 yo Syrian man into the country if he doesn't have one official document proving his ID? Probably the vast majority of harmless middle age Syrian men will fall into that catergory.

So what then?


There was a method pioneered a couple years ago by Mercury One Charities, but it is tie consuming and labor intensive. Person A shows up at your refugee immigration request line. You take 'A' personal data, birthplace, place they grew up, place they lived before they became a refugee. You then in essence send a Private Investigator armed with that data to do a background check, visiting the place where they were born to search birth records, visiting the place they grew up and places they lived to interview employers and neighbors and religious institutions to build a profile of 'A' and determine if they are who they say they are, and if that person is a threat if allowed into the USA.

Like I said, time consuming and likely expensive, but when official records either do not exist or are hard to acquire it is the only way to actually vet a refugee so you know who you are getting. The last Administration had more of a roll the dice and hope they turn up well strategy.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Alfred Tennyson', 'W')e are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Cog', 'U')nless the USA has a desperate need for 30 year old Syrian men that I am unaware of, then leave them out.


Indeed, considering the large number of uninvited people (refugees, asylum seekers, economic migrants, whatever you want to call them) that come to the US from Central America, the Caribbean and South America I really don't see any reason why the US should also be trying to accommodate refugees from the Middle East.
