US announces $400 million more in humanitarian aid for Syrians
2016-09-28
[Ynet] The US State Department said on Tuesday it was providing nearly $400 million in additional humanitarian funding to help Syrians caught up in the country's civil war, bring total U.S. humanitarian spending for Syria to about $5.9 billion.
So generous we are, to be sure. Was this an initiative by the House of Representatives, as required by the U.S. Constitution, or has President Obama whipped out his pen and his phone again?
Assistant Secretary of State for Population, Refugees and Migration Anne Richard said the United States has now admitted about 12,500 Syrian refugees in the past year, exceeding the administration's goal of 10,000.
And not one of them properly vetted, naturally.
