UN agencies issued a joint statement calling on Washington to continue letting refugees into the US after Donald Trump signed an executive order banning entry to Syrian refugees and suspending visas for visitors from six other Muslim-majority nations. “The needs of refugees and migrants worldwide have never been greater, and the US resettlement program is one of the most important in the world,” said Saturday’s joint statement from the UN refugee agency (UNHCR)
and the International Organization for Migration (IOM). The agencies added that the program was “a win-win situation,” which saved the lives of refugees, who then “enriched and strengthened their new societies” with “overwhelmingly positive” contributions. Both organizations “hope that the US will continue its strong leadership role and long tradition of protecting those who are fleeing conflict and persecution.” READ MORE
Yes!! Thankful that people are seeing the evil that Trump is displaying and fighting against it. Jesus commands are very clear: we take care of refugees.
These days people take up causes, demonstrate and march for almost any reason. The real issue of what is good and what is evil is ignored. Up front and center stage is whose feelings are being hurt, whose rights are being violated. In Truth, God has the right to take dominion over His Creation and therefore every situation.”
“Most often God’s Will is left out of the equation. People protest everything from who won the election to climate change. This is all wasted effort which would be better spent in prayer. Carrying signs and congregating in large groups will not change things.”
“The flavor of the world is changing from dependence upon God to dependence upon human effort, which in the end will prove to be quite a demise. God continues to allow Me to come here* in an attempt to draw people back to reality. Please listen.”
In 2011 Obama banned all MUSLIMS from entering US for 6 months, where was the protest, outrage!!!??? This is war against our New President has nothing to do with the refugees.
I’ve posted two comments, and don’t see any??
