NIXA, Mo. - The kitchen table at the Nixa home of Aaron and Marion Fleming is more like a situation room. It is kind of central command for a personal and urgent mission.
Aaron is a retired Marine, and he is trying to rescue an Afghani man, Sami Kazikhani, and his family.
Aaron retired from the Marines earlier this year after a decade of service because of combat related injuries from an IED.
Sami continued serving the US mission in Afghanistan, until the Taliban began trying to assassinate him.

Sami, his wife Yasmiin, and their baby Roxanne fled to Turkey as refugees and they have since been swept up in Europe's refugee crisis along with many Syrian refugees.
"I don't think we're able to sleep much now because we really need to get them through Hungary, and I can speak for both of us and say that's what we're scared of," says Marion.

The Flemings fear Sami's family could be deported back to Afghanistan where he could be assassinated by terrorists.
Aaron credits Sami with helping his unit return to the U.S. alive, "He was a major player in getting us all out of there alive, just as much as any of the Marines were."

The afghan family is different from the masses of random refugees.

The afghan family is different from the masses of random refugees.

From randon economic refugees.. yes, but not too different from war zones refugees that had to escape to find refuge from freedom bloodbaths in Iraq/Syria/Afghan etc. whose total is into millions now if I'm not mistaken.

if he's willing to pay for it, i say go for it.

Hungary has made it clear that they do not want any refugees and they have that right.

Have to disagree, they lost that right. Hungary has made it clear that invading other countries sovereignty using bogus claims is okay. Either you observe sovereignty rules or you don't; you can't has it both ways.
Difference is that refugees are using civilians and Hungary used armed militants for invasion. They helped sow the seeds of destabilization in the mideast with their adventurism, now they have to face the consequences of their choices.

The new members of EU had no idea there could be any downside to joining this organization. The very few troops to be deployed in Iraq did not seem like a big deal. :rolleyes:

So if 45% of the hungarian people did not support the war and did not vote for the head hancho that initiated the war... they should all deserved to be punished. Its like saying everyone that supportwd ron, and ron lost and obama is in charge, we deserve to has giant dildos in our asses.

[RonPaulMall]

The Marine should go back to Afghanistan and protect them if he is so concerned. Seems like the media is really flailing to come up with pro-Mass Migration spin at this point. I think the tide may truly be turning.

Until anarcho-capitalism takes root, yes.

You don't have to support housing the refugees to know better than to harm children. I saw more photos of this same women kicking little 12 year old girls too.

Less than 50% of US Americans supported DGP in 2008 and yet all have to obsereve SWCcare, gay marriage rules or face risk of going to prison. Such are the pitfalls of "representative" democracies' collective choices.

I wasn't necessarily passing a judgement on fairness/unfairness of impact from this refugee phenomenon or precision of demographic impact/blowback, my view is that a country cannot selectively violate/observe rules of sovereignty. I think what is happening is disruptive for almost all parties involved but there is some logical explanation for this looking at cause n effect.

Cong. Source: Syrian Refugees Coming To U.S. For Last Two Fiscal Years

11/14/2015
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, Reuters (http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/syria-refugees-u-s-centres-1.3308576) reports, by opening new screening outposts in Iraq and Lebanon. As of now, the administration promised to accept (http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/21/world/europe/us-to-increase-admission-of-refugees-to-100000-in-2017-kerry-says.html?_r=0) as many as 100,000 refugees each year by the end of 2017. The present annual cap is at 70,000.
