Tens of thousands of Muslim refugees to begin arriving in U.S. from Australia
Despite Trump’s criticized temporary “Muslim ban” and the American Civil Liberties Union launching a legal challenge to the ban in federal court, “tens of thousands” of Middle Eastern refugees and their families are headed to America over the next few years:
The first group of 1,250 mostly male Middle Eastern refugees is expected to soon arrive in the United States from Australia. The transfer of refugees comes after President Trump failed to shutter an Obama-era deal that could bring tens of thousands of the refugees’ family members to the U.S. in years to come.
Trump once called the deal “stupid” and “horrible,” yet it is going forward. The first round of refugees is on the way to the US. They are “primarily from Sudan, Somalia, Afghanistan, and Iran,” and they are no innocents. They are “being held in detention centers on Manus Island and Nauru Island” and have rioted in the past, causing injury and death. In fact, they are a dangerous group described as “illegal aliens in Australia who traveled to the country under the previous government which enforced a strict immigration policy that made sure the refugees would never be released from detention.”
This is only the beginning. Refugee resettlement expert Ann Corcoran warns that American neighborhoods will be absorbing these refugees and their “history of rioting and violence.”
“Report: Middle East Refugees to Begin Arriving to U.S. from Australia”, John Binder, Breitbart, October 1, 2017:
The first group of 1,250 mostly male Middle Eastern refugees is expected to soon arrive in the United States from Australia. The transfer of refugees comes after President Trump failed to shutter an Obama-era deal that could bring tens of thousands of the refugees’ family members to the U.S. in years to come.President Barack Obama signed the Australian-U.S. refugee deal during his last months in office — promising to take 1,250 Middle Eastern refugees off Australia’s hands.The refugees are being held in detention centers on Manus Island and Nauru Island. Despite Trump’s original statement calling the deal “a dumb deal,” the president has now broken two long-promised campaign pledges: Throwing out deals that don’t benefit Americans and stopping the flow of foreign refugees.According to NPR, roughly 50 foreign refugees are now on their way to the U.S. The other 1,200 are expected to follow soon after.While the U.S. will have to resettle the 1,250 refugees across communities, Americans will see no benefits to the deal. In exchange for resettling the refugees, roughly 50-60 Central Americans who are currently residing in Costa Rica, will be resettled in Australia.Refugee resettlement expert Ann Corcoran previously told Breitbart Texas that the move by Trump to follow through with the deal is one of the “worst” decisions he has made during the first six months of his presidency.“On the surface, this is a purely insane thing,” Corcoran said at the time. “We have never done anything like this.”“This is probably the worst deal I’ve seen within the last 10 years by the refugee resettlement program,” Corcoran continued.The so-called refugees are actually illegal aliens in Australia who traveled to the country under the previous government which enforced a strict immigration policy that made sure the refugees would never be released from detention.According to extensive research from migration expert Nayla Rush, 850 refugees on Manus Island are men, while more than half of the refugees on Nauru Island are men as well. Rush’s research concluded that the refugees are primarily from Sudan, Somalia, Afghanistan, and Iran.Although some of these countries are included in Trump’s travel ban, the Australian government has confirmed that the refugee deal will be exempt from the travel ban guidelines.Corcoran has said the refugees the U.S. will have to resettle in American neighborhoods have a history of rioting and violence…….This was not the first time the refugees rioted and became violent at the detention centers. Back in 2014, the Manus Island refugees led a riot that left one dead and another 60 injured, as ABC News reported at the time.An independent report that investigated the refugees’ riots found that the destruction occurred after the groups of mostly Middle Eastern men were angered over their detention, despite being warned not to enter Australia illegally:They began on Sunday, February 16 when asylum seekers were given answers to their questions about how soon their claims would be processed, and where they would be resettled if deemed refugees.“The transferees’ frustration and anger following that meeting resulted in disruption and violence in Oscar compound that evening and noisy protests,” the report said.That night, about 35 asylum seekers tried to escape from the Oscar compound when the gates were opened for dinner delivery, but were caught by guards.Corcoran has said that unlike what mainstream media reports claim, the refugees are not vulnerable foreign nationals fleeing destruction, but in fact, destructors themselves that could wreak havoc on the U.S. region where they are resettled.“Some unfortunate communities in America are going to get single men who have been in detention for years,” Corcoran said. “They will be literally free when they get here.”“An American community is going to get 20 of these young Muslim men who illegally crossed into another country and we get nothing from this,” Corcoran said.On the Nauru Island, about 125 refugees went as far as to burn down the majority of the detention center where they were being housed by the Australian government, as the Guardian reported at the time.In this incident, the refugees started a fire that took out $55 million worth of damage, destroying medical centers and accommodation blocks after attempting to break out of the detention center. The majority were from Iran, Palestine, Iraq, and Lebanon.Most recently, a Sri Lankan refugee on Manus Island was charged with raping a 19-year-old Australian native, taking her to a local hotel and raping a total of three times, according to ABC News.At the time of the incident, Manus Island Police spokesman David Yapu said “the victim suffered pain and was heavily bleeding.”After the refugees are resettled in the U.S. in the next fiscal year, the families of those refugees will get priority migration status to either come to America as refugees as well, or come as legal immigrants through the current immigration system which is based on family chain migration.
