On one hand banning the refugees will alienate that nation and may well drive other members of that country into the arms of fanaticism while allowing some of its more rational occupants to be destroyed thanks to turning them away.
On the other hand if we accept them when theres a clear tone of fanaticism in that countries national identity right now then it could actually begin to seep into the US over the next 30-40 years and make homegrown terrorism more likely just like in the UK. Not only that if we are accepting the rational Syrians then who is left to counter the irrational ones?
It doesn't seem like either one is a solution. The opposition to the fanaticism needs to be empowered, not hidden away.
i dont think itll be a problem one state can hold all the refugees 10,000 isnt a huge amount of immigrants look at New York City thats just one city within one state easily absorbing many more than 10,000 immigrants who stayed in that city for generations descendents are still in that city and havent left NYC so its possible and makes sense to do that . most countries have taken in more refugees than what we are in what amounts to less space overall than the 7 states that are agreeing to immigrants here . i dont know why it would make sense to just spread immigrants out throughout the US .
