Despite *********** Push-Back, Biden Administration Weighs Bringing ************ Refugees to US

The Biden administration is considering a plan to relocate some of the more than a million Palestinians, who have been displaced in Gaza since the war began between ******* and ******, to the ******* States.

According to the White House, discussions are underway, but no decisions have been made.

One potential roadblock is the practicality of bringing ************ refugees to the U.S.

“We are constantly evaluating policy proposals to further support Palestinians who are family members of ********* citizens and may want to come to the ******* States. So, we’re evaluating it,” said White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. 

The possibility led to quick rejection from more than two dozen *********** senators calling the plan a national security risk. In a letter to President Biden, they questioned how the administration would properly vet any refugees for ********** ties or sympathies. 

“Palestinians are taught from a very early age, not, ‘Hate Jews,’ but ‘Hate all infidels.’ There’s a reason that the ***** countries around ******* do not accept ************ refugees on a permanent basis. It’s a risky proposition,” said Sen. Ron Johnson (R) Wisconsin, on Newsweek.

, points out that according to international asylum law, the U.S. should not be on the ***** for taking in ************ refugees. 

“The ******* States is not the first country in the region that people can get to. It’s pretty much the last country that people can get to. And so they should be looking to go other places and the Biden administration, frankly, should be showing the leadership role here, pressing states in the region, to take in refugees from Gaza who are actually trying to find a safe place to live right now,” Noronha told CBN News.

Since the U.S. ******** program began more than 40 years ago, it has not resettled Palestinians in large numbers.

Noronha says, however, that he believes neither past policy nor *********** push-back will prevent the administration from moving forward. 

“Frankly, they’ve had an immigration policy from day one that is all about doing what they believe is the humanitarian thing and ignoring national security concerns,” Noronha said.

According to recent polls, 34 percent of Palestinians in Gaza support ******, and the Biden administration acknowledges the ******* group has disguised its militants during prior civilian evacuations.
