This.
If you are implicit in fucking up their home country, making it impossible for them to remain safely, you absolutely have a responsibility to provide sanctuary to those fortunate enough to make it out alive, not just mail them a blanket and a bottle of water and expect some other country to deal with the fallout.

I agree about taking them in, but bc they are human. Not because it's our governments fault that they are in trouble. Let's not blame the US. A lot of them are running away from Isis or other radicals. Not from what the US is doing.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
