    The Syrians in the Gulf states are all working there. Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan are offering only temporary refuge which the UN is meeting the cost of. They have not offered permanent resettlement.

    Saudi Arabia has offered nothing at all for refugees. They only finance terrorists and insurgents and have no compassion for the people their policy displaces. Likewise Oman, QATAR, UAE, Kuwait and Bahrain who have all financed insurgency and terrorism.

    Saudi Arabia is the absolute standout in denial of aid to refugees, because if Saudi Arabia aided refugees the other GCC states would also.

    Additionally, Saudi Arabia is fomenting another refugee disaster in Yemen with the potential for another 20+ million refugees as Saudi Arabia slowly destroys the infrastructure, society and economy of Yemen.

    They have only offered temporary refuge and are not financing the aid to the refugees and are probably profiting from the UN supplied aid. None of Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Iraq, Kuwait are offering permanent resettlement or immigrant status.

    Only that's a lie. Have you seen footage of these so-called 'refugees'? Do they look like they're starving to you? Heck, many of them are refusing food from the Red Cross because the containers have a cross on them.

    They are taking advantage of the civil war in Syria to come to the West. They're not even satisfied to make it to Turkey; they want to come to the push-over liberal Europe and then to the US.

    The family of that drowned little boy were safely in Turkey for three years, according to the aunt. No, those 'refugees' are invading the West out of greed.

    In rich Gulf Arab states, some feel shamed by refugee response
    Sep 7, 2015, When Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990, fellow Gulf states raced to shelter thousands of displaced Kuwaitis. Fast forward 25 years, and the homeless from Syria's nearby war have found scant refuge in the Arab world's richest states.

    The are all contributing to humanitarian aid for the refugees thru the UN Aid to Syria Fund. The GCC countries have some 600,000 Syrians who are there more or less permanently.

    Who said anything about them being starving? Have you ever lived in a tent? Try living in one for three years. Now try living in one for three years and not be allowed to work. Try living with four other people in a tent meant for two people. These people were refugees fleeing for their lives to reach the safety of the tent cities. There is no life in these tent cities. They just exist there. No schooling for children, no future if they stay there. They can't go home as home no longer exists. Oh, they are so "greedy" to want a future.

    that's a pretty heartless thing to say.

    Jesus would welcome these refugees, fleeing ISIS barbarians.

    why don't you?

    I have no doubt Jesus loved cowards too, but just as long as Europe knows what they're letting in--cowards, not refugees--then it's their behind anyway. Call them what they are--runaway cowards who would fit right in with liberals if not for their anti-female, anti-gay behavior. Will be interesting to see how all the women and gays deal with them while the 'men' stand by and let it happen.

    Yes. Why not stay and fight them?

    Most of the footage I've seen of the 'refugees' are young men.

    Did you see the video I posted of them kicking bottles of water away like spoiled ungrateful brats?

    Yes, it's hilarious how the US arms Arab men (Iraqis, for example) and they drop their weapons and run like rabbits as soon as they hear 'boo'.

    No wonder ISIS is kicking their butts.

    Yeah, but they're only fighting cowards. If they ever come up against a real military, they'll be obliterated inside of a week. It's only because Obama is a liberal moron that they've gotten as strong as they have.

    I posted a video of them in Hungary kicking bottles of water that were being given to them by aid workers.

    The cowards are already acting like entitled liberals.

    And once a Republican gets into office, the Democrats will play the blame game.

    What "Arab" country doesn't ISIS already own?

    Indeed they should be fighting these ISIS monsters - I would and I'm sure plenty do, however ISIS is strong.... We should have had boots on the ground a year or two ago and none of this would be happening... No, in Obamas delusion these people are "JV".....

    ISIS is closer to Nazi Germany than any "JV squad"..... If any of those idiots could figure out how to fly planes we would have real troubles....

    How many of those young male 'refugees' do you think will start joining ISIS while they're being coddled by liberals in Europe?
