U.S. Will Be Accepting 100000 Refugees By 2017, John Kerry Says
The announcement comes ahead of an emergency summit meeting planned for Tuesday of European Union leaders to address the flood of refugees that has overwhelmed the region. The continent has not seen such a dramatic movement of people since the ruinous Second World War.

Imagine that 58 million Americans were streaming into Canada and Mexico, many with only a small satchel and the clothes on their backs. Around 40 percent came from Syria, according to the worldwide Organisation for Migration. How many is just conjecture, officials admit. Although the good faiths of these European governments should be recognized, these efforts are simply not enough – with the exception of Germany, of course – considering that fact Turkey is accommodating 1.9 million refugees.

Mr. Kerry said that the United States would explore ways to increase the limit beyond 100,000 in future years while carrying out background checks to ensure that the refugees have not been infiltrated by terrorists. I mean, the Syrian refugee crisis has only increased, and only peaked over the past four years.
“It’s not only this child, it’s children inside of the country as well that we forget about.”
Each morning since the start of September, when he arrived on the Turkish coast with plans of escaping to Europe, Hasan Musally, a 42-year-old welder from Syria, has come to Fener Beach to practice swimming. But she noted that they, too, increasingly appear to be giving up on Syria.
For either group, life in the camps or outside them has gotten harsher. Asked about the funding gap, Archbishop Silvano Tomasi, the Vatican’s permanent representative to the U.N.in Geneva, said donors are exhausted of repeated requests for ever-increasing amounts of money. Earlier, he and Steinmeier met with a group of refugees around a conference table on the wooded, lakeside resort-style campus of the foreign ministry’s education center outside Berlin.
