The Republicans, and Trump and Carson are being idiots. 

Obama should not try to make Americans feel guilty by talking this nonsense about "orphans and ladies". Its condescending to people. 

However, I think the US should take some, as long as they are properly screened, and continue to monitor them, as well as others to make sure they do not become terrorists later in life.

 

Also, the Middle Eastern states, like the more wealthy oil rich countries should be pressured to take most of the refugees...why arent the western nations putting pressure on them to do so? Is it because the West has lost its power to do so and they are declining in world power?

The problem here is as mentioned previously months ago....latent suspicions of Muslims. It is the reason many European nations do not want to take in any. Everywhere that refugees from north African nations accumulate they have turned out to be incubator for terrorism in europe. Plus why should the world stand by and watch the emptying out of Syria and not help to keep Syrians in Syria by creating habitable zones as the remove the bad people.  Obama should have started doing that ages ago and this crisis would not have occurred. Meanwhile, Trump et al are parlaying fear of Muslims into votes.

Trump is trying very hard to give the white people of the USA an option to regain leadership of their inheritance. I doan think he cares for the muslim or the hispanic votes. His rhetoric certainly has signalled that. As for the Black votes, it is for Clinton. And I doubt whether Carson can pry them away from the Clinton's. Dey are like Guyanese, voting without any ananlyse.

We could say the same about the invasion of Iraq and the "weapons of mass destruction" that led us into a false war. They should have left Saddam in place. The Bushes dragged us into a manufactured war...this is the consequences of it.

 

But why cant the other rich middle east states help also? I would like to think they would like to do more for their muslim brothers and sisters. I dont understand why this has now become a western problem to fix?
