Hillary Clinton to follow Angela Merkel and import millions of Muslim refugees

Agreed. We are witnessing a Christian genocide in the Middle East at the hands of the ISIS Militant Muslim Extremists.

It would seem reasonable that Christians fleeing from Middle East would have a much easier time assimilating into the US culture than Muslims fleeing the Middle East, just based on the values framework of the Christian religion being much the same as the values framework already present here.

Last I read the percentage of Muslims being resettled here in the US is grater than 90%, so if there isn't a written mandate to favor Muslims, it certainly seems they are.

The culturally guaranteed moderates are largely Kurds, which are in opposition to our ally, the Turks.
It's not quite that easy to do.

The rest is a mixed bag.

But now we're talking about international relations. None of those complexities prevent us from extending aid to refugees, regardless of ethnicity or faith.

Honestly, you may not believe it, but I'm fairly sure that the reason we're importing Muslims, rather than the groups in serious need is because of politics.
It's the same reason illegal immigration hasn't been dealt with.

Dems want more voters, they're importing them.
It's shown, more or less, with Hispanics in DNCLeaks, likely the same reason for importing Muslims.
They're using demographic changes to create a long term wedge in politics, to make the GOP a minority party.

That's my opinion.

Politicians pander. I certainly believe that. Doesn't change what I think is right and which policies I favor.

Long-term demographic predictions seem to favor the Democratic party as it currently exists. But it's also sort of the nature of conservative parties to swim against the tide.

I'm saying the demographic shifts aren't by happenstance, their purposeful.
Bringing in a new demographic, solely to maintain or gain political power, is immoral and unethical, even if the stated reason is moral.

I don't doubt the DNC favors minority immigration, but they don't have that much control over it. Only citizens vote, so bringing in refugees doesn't equate to a changing electorate, especially not in the short term.

They are the current government.
Refugees become citizens.

I don't trust political parties when it comes to this.
If we really cared about groups in danger, we'd be bringing in the most in danger first.
Not the most politically profitable.

I'm fine with helping.
We just need to help the right ones first and foremost/
