Chris Murphy: If We Want ‘Credibility’ in Middle East, We Must Accept 50,000 Refugees

Wallace Senator Murphy you ░░░░░░░░ the U S has ░░░░░░░░ cold hearted when it ░░░░░░░░ to dealing with the ░░░░░░░░ of Syrian refugees and ░░░░░░░░ say even President Obama ░░░░░░░░ call now for 10 ░░░░░░░░ more over the next ░░░░░░░░ isn t enough You ░░░░░░░░ 50 000 more Explain ░░░░░░░░ So the whole world ░░░░░░░░ moved by that image ░░░░░░░░ that young little three ░░░░░░░░ old boy who had ░░░░░░░░ up on the beaches ░░░░░░░░ Europe but the reality ░░░░░░░░ that that happens in ░░░░░░░░ way shape or form ░░░░░░░░ single day inside Syria ░░░░░░░░ on the passage to ░░░░░░░░ 10 000 kids at ░░░░░░░░ very least have died ░░░░░░░░ that conflict And it ░░░░░░░░ doesn t stand to ░░░░░░░░ that Germany is going ░░░░░░░░ take 800 000 and ░░░░░░░░ United States has only ░░░░░░░░ 1500 During the Vietnam ░░░░░░░░ the United States took ░░░░░░░░ 000 refugees During the ░░░░░░░░ conflicts we took 170 ░░░░░░░░ And my contention here ░░░░░░░░ that if we want ░░░░░░░░ in the region then ░░░░░░░░ have got to be ░░░░░░░░ as a partner in ░░░░░░░░ to solve this humanitarian ░░░░░░░░ Right now we aren ░░░░░░░░ And that comes with ░░░░░░░░ cost to U S ░░░░░░░░ when we are trying ░░░░░░░░ solve this problem.”
