The UN High Commissioner for Refugees told the US that we better darn well take care of the tens of thousands of Mexican and Central American kids coming across the border without Mom or Dad, that these “refugees” are our responsibility.
Regular readers know this is the latest push by the one-worlders to force open our borders—send in the “kids.”
In the Wall Street Journal piece last week, note how the word “refugee” is applied to the mostly teen invaders who are really illegal aliens. The definition of ‘refugee’ does not include running from gang violence where the alien’s own country simply can’t enforce the law.
Real refugees or asylum seekers must prove that they are escaping persecution for their religious or political beliefs. This is about changing the rules by changing the language.
From the Wall Street Journal:
The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees has called on the U.S. and other governments in the Americas “to keep children safe from human rights abuses, violence and crime” in what the agency says is a surge of undocumented minors trafficked into the U.S. by criminal smuggling networks.
The report, “Children on the Run,” was released in Washington, D.C., Wednesday by the U.N. refugee agency. It said such trafficking involved 21,537 children last year, up from 4,059 in 2011.
It is the latest call for action in response to a rising tide of child refugees emerging from Mexico and the Central American countries of El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala.

The program, run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, cost the federal government $376 million in fiscal year 2013, and this year has a budget of $868 million.
A large portion of the millions being spent on the “kids” is going to a couple of the contractors: US Conference of Catholic Bishops and Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services. Here!
What happens when the “kids” turn 18? They are released into America as “dreamers.”
