Most people are very surprised to learn that Church World Service (one of nine federal resettlement contractors) has been busy for years flooding Lancaster, PA with third worlders. Here we learn that the next big batch will be SyriansSyrians who dont speak English and who will need mental health counseling!
Sheila Mastropietro of CWS: Counseling is an area of concern. You betcha! Sure hope Lancaster has lots of good FREE counseling services. BTW, your tax dollars pay for 20 staff people in Mastropietros office! http://www.cwsglobal.org/what-we-do/refugees/us-offices/lancaster/lancaster-staff.html
And, big surprise (not!) they will work in factories and warehouses (jobs Americans wont do for s***e wages?). Please explain to me why a church group is acting as head h****r for businesses looking for cheap labor?
From WITF:
About 60 Syrian refugees already live in Lancaster County, and another 60 are expected to re-settle there in the next year.
Church groups secure and furnish apartments for the families, who also get help in finding work and staying healthy.
English classes will be available, and kids will go to schools in the county.
Speaking on WITFs Smart Talk, Sheila Mastropietro with Church World Service in Lancaster also says counseling is an area of concern because many refugees have seen death and destruction in Syria.
So its difficult but we do what we can and we certainly have interpretation services. And we expect that some people are going to need at least some counseling in the beginning at least, she says.
Mastropietro says she expects the Syrians to find work quickly in a warehouse or factory.
And, if you didnt know Church World Service is part of the National Council of Churches which has historical roots in the C*******t movement of the 1950s. They are hard L*****ts in their political view.

It was in Lancaster, in 2013, that I first heard about pockets of resistance (towns trying to stop the flow of refugees their way) and the Office of Refugee Resettlements new hireWelcoming America.
An afterthought: I should have added thisover 90% of the Syrians we are taking are Muslims.

They should be sent to Britain and France, architects of the Sykes-Picot post Ottoman blunder.
