What would you propose as a fitting level of examination to alleviate your concern? Preferably not something that takes months to do, because - you know - some of these people are fleeing the very weapons the US is peddling in Syria.
Good question. It takes a year or so, typically if I'm not mistaken for the vetting process to run its course. Syrian refugees go through the toughest I believe of anyone else trying to get here which probably adds to that time.
The issue IMO what the states are worried about is the acceleration of the process which could lead to a lapse in judgement or missing something during the vetting process.
The point I've been trying to make are the states concerns about why so many, why so quickly, and why force it or overload the systems we have running the process. Stopping it until everything is defined more clearly is their issue. When I say define I mean making sure each refugee has been properly vetted.
I don't care who comes, I really don't. All I'm saying is I agree with concern the states have.
