President Obama’s plan to accept 10,000 Syrian refugees is under fire after Friday’s terrorist attack in Paris, with one GOP presidential candidate saying the U.S. should halt its plans as long as it’s not able to assure Americans it can weed out potential terrorists.

The Islamic State, which controls significant territory in Syria, has claimed credit for the coordinated attacks, which have left 129 dead and 352 wounded in Paris — and had earlier claimed credit for downing a Russian…

Plans are in motion to build a Syrian refugee haven around an abandoned Pontiac elementary school.

The project is the brainchild of some Metro Detroit Syrian-American refugee advocates.

Local businessman Ismael Basha is one of the project’s organizers.

Basha says he and a partner have purchased the former Franklin Elementary School, along with about 120 vacant lots surrounding the school.

“Our vision is to remodel the school, and turn it into a community and…

Hundreds of thousands of Syrians have now fled their homes amid war and disaster. Now, one of those families is in Charlotte.

The family of seven are the first Syrian refugees from this crisis to be resettled in the Queen City.

They've been here for two weeks, and the kids started school Monday.

They don’t speak English yet, but the father said that will soon change.…

President Barack Obama announced recently that the United States will admit at least 10,000 refugees from Syria in 2016.

Since January, Florida has taken in 104 Syrian refugees. Of those, 26 have been placed in the Miami area, according to the State Department’s Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration.

Before a refugee arrives in South Florida, or any other location, they must first apply for resettlement with the United Nations High Commissioner of Refugee…

As Canada prepares to welcome 25,000 new refugees from Syria before the end of the year, the business community in Nova Scotia is eagerly awaiting their arrival.

In February 2014, Nova Scotia's Ivany Report recommended that the province receive 7,000 new immigrants annually.…

The first in a series of charter flights bringing Syrian refugees to the UK will arrive on Tuesday as the Government steps up its expanded relocation programme.

Officials confirmed the plane will land in Glasgow - marking a new phase in the scheme to resettle 20,000 people from camps around the war-ravaged country.

Several more special flights will arrive at airports around Britain in the coming months and the refugees will be housed with the help of local…

“Bringing 25,000 Syrian refugees to Canada is the right thing to do for that part of the world in terms of helping to contribute to more stability,” said Scott Brison, President of the Treasury Board and a member of a newly established federal cabinet committee to bring Syrian refugees to the country.

Provincial officials say they are working closely with Canada’s new Immigration Minister to help bring additional refugees to Nova Scotia. The province doesn’t know how many refugees…

The lead settlement agency for government-sponsored refugees in Edmonton could help three times as many refugees in the next six weeks as it normally helps in an entire year.

Catholic Social Services (CSS) staff were expected to meet with federal officials Friday, one day after Immigration Minister John McCallum said that 25,000 Syrians will be resettled in Canada by Dec. 31 — a key part of the Liberals’ election platform.

“If Edmonton were to get the same proportion of…

More Syrian refugees arrived in New Orleans almost two weeks ago eliciting a warning from House Homeland Security Committee about the lack of current intelligence regarding the refugees who are in the U.S. and those who will arrive in the future.

The Obama administration is looking to increase the number of Syrian refugees who may be admitted into the U.S. as well as speed up the process. The administration plans to do this,…

None of the early news reports on November 13th, mentioned the fact that a large scale and well organized terrorist attack had been predicted. The title of the media report below is:

“Intelligence services fear a 9/11 French Style”

Yet in a bitter irony the October report stated that these forthcoming attacks were difficult to avoid: ”impossible a dejouer”, suggesting that French intelligence is inept and unable to prevent a forthcoming catastrophe.

What was the role of…

For we live by faith, not by sight.
