Be sure to see Neil Munro’s good post at the Daily Caller. Many of the UIATMs have already been moved to a town near you! http://dailycaller.com/2014/07/05/border-meltdown-obama-delivering-290000-illegals-to-u-s-homes/
When we first began reporting on the illegal aliens who are under 18 years old, they were called ‘unaccompanied minors.’ That was a few years ago. More recently they became ‘unaccompanied alien children’ (UACs) in government lingo. Now we learn that the word alien has been dropped in favor of ‘unaccompanied children.’ Here at Breitbart.
We note that in the big lobbying push by the contractors*** for more of your money (for the children), here for example, that they are calling the youthful law breakers—UICs—which stands for the politically-correct ‘unaccompanied immigrant children.’
How about the more accurate acronym UIATMs–unaccompanied illegal alien teenaged males—a little awkward, but more accurate.
All of our previous coverage of ‘unaccompanied minors’ ishere.
Call your state’s refugee resettlement coordinator, here, and find out if you will be getting some “children” too! And, while you are at it, call the contractors too—looks like all of them are getting federal cashola for the children.
Or, so they would like it to be forbidden! Think about this! The UN High Commissioner for Refugees is telling certain countries (to start with! others will be next!) to allow anyone claiming asylum to simply roam free and get “services.”
Who the hell do they think they are!
And, why countries that want to save themselves from invasion don’t just get out of the UN is beyond me.
One-worlder Volker Turk: Detaining people is not the answer. Let them roam free and give them “services.” http://www.cassese-initiative.org/global-education/summer-schools/faculty/9-global-education/73-turk-bio.html
LOL! One of the countries the UN is telling to release asylum seekers is Mexico—well obviously Mexico is not detaining the tens of thousands of asylum-seeking “children” passing through Mexico to get to the US border.***
And, note that the UN is not (yet) telling the US to stop detaining illegal migrants.
The UN refugee agency yesterday issued a new global strategy aimed at helping countries move away from the detention of asylum seekers, refugees and stateless people worldwide.
Detention of asylum-seekers and refugees has become routine in a number of countries. It has serious lasting effects on individuals and families and the UNHCR said that it is concerned about the growing use of immigration detention, particularly of children.
The new strategy, ‘Beyond Detention’, calls firstly for an end to the detention of children, secondly to ensure that alternatives to detention are available in law and that they are implemented, and thirdly to ensure that conditions of detention – when unavoidable – fully meet international human rights standards.
“Seeking asylum is lawful and the exercise of a fundamental human right,” UNHCR’s Director of International Protection Volker Türk said “The detention of asylum-seekers as a routine response should be avoided. These are people who need protection. We are ready to work with governments on this, particularly to end the practice of detaining asylum-seeking children.” [Who isn’t an asylum seeker these days?—ed]
Türk said that the UNHCR recognised that irregular entry or stay presented many challenges to countries, but he said that detaining people was not the answer. “UNHCR recommends that people seeking asylum be properly received, allowed freedom of movement and access to services in the community.Seeking asylum is not illegal under international law and people have a right to be treated humanely and with dignity.”
UNHCR has identified a number of countries to work with initially to revisit detention practices and to strengthen alternatives to detention, including Malta, Hungary, Indonesia, Lithuania, Malaysia, Mexico, Thailand, UK and Zambia. UNHCR plans to expand this group of countries over the coming five years.
The international Left is busy, busy, busy these days!
Follow our history of poor little Malta as it became a target for illegal aliens especially when the US State Department (egged-on by Malta’s Jesuits) started taking some of their illegal economic migrants to America calling them refugees. One could write a book about the ‘invasion of Europe’ and how Malta became a beach head. See our ‘Invasion of Europe’ series by clicking here.
*** Seeall of our postson the invasion of the US by ‘unaccompanied minors.’ Forgotten in all of the hullabaloo is that legitimate asylum-seekers are, by international law, supposed to ask for asylum in the first safe country in which they arrive. They are not supposed to be shopping for countries of their choice! All of those “vulnerable” kids should have asked for asylum in Mexico!
Congressman Bridenstine said, “There is no excuse for denying a Federal Representative from Oklahoma access to a federal facility in Oklahoma where unaccompanied children are being held. Any Member of Congress should have the legal authority to visit a federal youth detention facility without waiting three weeks.”
Congressman’s entry blocked. Who is paying the security guards?
The Health and Human Services (HHS) official who appears to be in charge of the facility, told Congressman Bridenstine he could schedule an appointment for July 21. HHS Deputy Director of the Office of Public Affairs, Ken Wolfe, would not take the Congressman’s phone call. The Congressman was told to send Mr. Wolfe an email as that was the preferred method of communication. Congressman Bridenstine’s email to Mr. Wolfe included this press release.
“After my visit today with the base commander, I approached the barracks where the children are housed. A new fence has been erected by HHS, completely surrounding the barracks and covered with material to totally obscure the view. Every gate is chained closed.

Are they coming to your town next?
Find out by calling your state’s refugee coordinator. Go herefor the complete list.
Update: Tonko’s Republican challenger is making the issue a campaign issue, see the story here.
He sure isn’t criticizing the idea of bringing hundreds of illegal alien teenagers to Albany. Does he think like Obamathat America needs the “dreamer” kids? Story hat tip: Laurence.
Rep. Tonko: Strengthen NY communities by bringing in hundreds of Central American teenaged boys?
Meanwhile we note that another federal refugee contractor***has its hand in the federal till!
According to Paul Tonko, the Department of Health and Human Service is looking at many places across the country to house the children that cross the border without adults. There are a few places benig reviewed to house the children One of which, is the old Doane Stuart School building, located on Southern Boulevard in Albany.
[….]
“Initial reaction is that these children are escaping violence because of humanitarian efforts of this nation which I think has been our hallmark, to be humanitarian in response to, in this case, children,” said Tonko.
[….]
Tonko says other sites in New York State are also being investigated. However, he stresses funding will come from the federal level and not come from the state. [Yeh right! No cost to the state!—ed]
Previously most federal contracts for caring for the “unaccompanied minors” went to the US Conference of Catholic Bishops and to the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service. Recently we saw that Church World Serviceis in on the action and now we see USCRIs (US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants)hand in the federal till too!
All of the contractors were lobbying for ‘comprehensive immigration reform’ (S.744) so as to obtain more immigrant ‘clients’ and thus federal grants, but since they aren’t getting that windfall, they will get this one!
Stacie Blake, with the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants says the main concern is safe place to put the children with access to immigration hearings and an airport.
Something her office knows a lot about.
“Our interest is seeing and hearing these interests upheld because we are learning of these very disturbing reports off these most vulnerable children,” she said.
Upstate New York appears to be a prime target for relocating the “children” away from the border.

***The contractors (remember some, maybe all by now! are being paid by you to take care of the illegal alien “children!”)
Ireland is bottom of the European league table when it comes to offering asylum to refugees – including those from war torn Syria – according to a new report.
[….]
The Eurostat report says: “The three largest groups of beneficiaries of protection status in the EU28 in 2013 remained citizens of Syria (35,800 persons or 26 percent of the total number of persons granted protection status), Afghanistan (16,400 or 12 percent) and Somalia (9,700 or 7 percent).
[….]
Ireland allowed only 150 out of 840 applicants asylum status while 55 others received interim permission to remain in the state.
The figures put the country at the bottom of the league along with the Baltic and some south-eastern European states.
