How the U.S. targeted drone program and its failed foreign policy are to blame for current refugee crisis


The reluctance to accommodate Syrian refugees has nothing to do with being anti-Muslim, racist or discriminatory in any regard, but is more about getting to the root of the problem as opposed to treating its symptoms. Nearly 100 million Americans are out of work or have been forced to take part-time jobs – the last thing we need to do is allocate more resources to foreign-born individuals.

America needs to lend aid to its own people, not through welfare programs, but by restoring jobs, ending the Federal Reserve and its fiat money system, lowering tuition rates for college students and eliminating government involvement where it’s not needed (like healthcare)!

In order to make this country great again, we need to focus on America, righting our wrongs, eliminating our failed foreign policy and removing politicians who are motivated by special interests as opposed to protecting our civil liberties.

Terrorism may be reduced if U.S. led by example

It’s irresponsible to lend sympathy to displaced refugees without acknowledging why they’re refugees in the first place.

Ron Paul put it best when he wrote in September [1]:

“The reason so many are fleeing places like Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, and Iraq is that US and European interventionist foreign policy has left these countries destabilized with no hopes of economic recovery. This mass migration from the Middle East and beyond is a direct result of the neocon foreign policy of regime change, invasion, and pushing ‘democracy’ at the barrel of a gun.”

If it weren’t for the U.S. military’s covert drone program that illegally assassinates individuals in undeclared war zones based on physical appearance and whether or not they’re carrying a certain SIM card, the Middle East wouldn’t be in the disarray that it is currently.[2]

“While the media focuses on the human tragedy of so many people uprooted and traveling in dangerous circumstances, there is very little attention given to the events that led them to leave their countries,” says Paul, adding that the mayhem is a man-made crisis and a government made crisis.

Forcing democracy on other countries that don’t want it, doesn’t work. And the track record proves it.

“Even when they successfully change the regime, as in Iraq, what is left behind is an almost uninhabitable country,” Paul says. “It reminds me of the saying attributed to a US major in the Vietnam War, discussing the bombing of Ben Tre: ‘It became necessary to destroy the town in order to save it.’”

While the recent terror attacks in Paris are absolutely horrific and should be condemned on every level, could the U.S. and its western allies have possibly seen this coming? After all, even the Pentagon admits that droning individuals overseas creates more harm than it does good, recommending that the military should probably start capturing suspected militants again instead of assassinating them.[3]

Forcing “democracy” on others creates hatred for U.S.

“The Europeans share a good deal of blame as well,” says Paul.

“France and the UK were enthusiastic supporters of the attack on Libya and they were early backers of the ‘Assad must go’ policy. Assad may not be a nice guy, but the forces that have been unleashed to overthrow him seem to be much worse and far more dangerous. No wonder people are so desperate to leave Syria.

“Most of us have seen the heartbreaking photo of the young Syrian boy lying drowned on a Turkish beach. While the interventionists are exploiting this tragedy to call for direct US attacks on the Syrian government, in fact the little boy was from a Kurdish family fleeing ISIS in Kobane. And as we know there was no ISIS in either Iraq or Syria before the 2003 US invasion of Iraq.

“As often happens when there is blowback from bad foreign policy, the same people who created the problem think they have a right to tell us how to fix it – while never admitting their fault in the first place.”
