Erst vor kurzem erfahren, dass die #UN einen Mechanismus hat, um #Flüchtlinge|n human und unbürokratisch zu helfen, ihre Asylansprüche zu prüfen und sie auf aufnahmefähige Länder zu verteilen, ohne dass sie erst Schmuggler bezahlen und sich in Lebensgefahr begeben müssen. Wird nur von den meisten Aufnahmeländern nicht angewendet.

Mögliche #Lösungen für elementare Probleme in der #Migration (anstatt der Abschreckungspolitik der #EU):
- Das #Resettlement Programm der UN, über das Flüchtlinge mit guten Aussichten auf #Asyl direkt aus ihren Herkunfts- bzw. Erstaufnahmeländern einen Antrag stellen und dann legal einreisen können, ohne Schmuggler bezahlen und ihr Leben riskieren zu müssen. Wird leider derzeit von vielen reichen Ländern (inkl. #Deutschland) nicht/kaum angewendet.
- Mehr einfache Arbeitsvisa für die Arbeitsmigration, sodass diese Leute es nicht über die aufwändige Asylschiene versuchen müssen, wenn sie keinen guten Asylgrund haben. Hilft auch gegen den #Fachkräftemangel bei uns.Ich als Laie würde noch zufügen:
- Vielleicht kann man mit Herkunfts- und Erstaufnahmeländern leichter Abkommen schließen, dass sie irregulär hier eingereiste Leute ohne Asylgrund wieder aufnehmen, wenn man ihnen gleichzeitig bestimmte Kontingente von Arbeitsvisa / Resettlements zusichert. -

- die gefährlichen Fluchtrouten
- der Arbeitskräftemangel in den Zielländern.
Und ja, es gibt die echten #Lösungen ! Tw. schon als Gesetze/Abkommen im Rahmen der UN, sie werden nur nicht angewendet. Stattdessen hört die #EU auf ihre Faschos, will mehr krumme Deals mit Diktatoren machen und Menschen in Lager sperren. Bäh.

An interview with Molly Crabapple. Her most recent book is "Here Where We Live is Our Country: The Story of the Jewish Bund". She notably explains "hereness" and evokes the history of the Bund (or General Jewish Labour Bund, Yiddish: דער בונד), a socialist party founded in the Russian Empire (primarily Lithuania, Poland, and Russia).

During the later stages of World War II and until 1950, millions of Germans and German-speaking persons fled or were expelled from various Eastern and Central European areas. It was the largest transfer of any single ethnic population in European history.
The German population east of Oder-Neisse was estimated at over 11 million in early 1945. The first mass flight of Germans followed the Red Army's advance.

So the admin will be relying more on another agency that has traditionally supported refugees: a refugee office in #HHS. That office has been reaching out to organizations assisting the #white refugees in recent days to prepare them for the arrival of the #Afrikaners, according to a department memo obtained by NYT.

Can a people deserve #genocide and #resettlement? Like it or not, that is the shape of the coming arguments over #Gaza. European Jews did not deserve #nazi genocide, which I, and I presume everyone here, 100% agree with. But the people of Gaza's behavior over a long period including rejecting peace in 1994 and ongoing terrorist incidents culminating in Oct 7th justifies their slaughter, and ultimately relocation to Jordan and maybe Libya. I don't support it, but it is Trump and Israel's plan.

Friends: #Refugees have been quite literally left out in the cold by the administration's cruel 1/24 order stopping any work on their behalf. These are people who were forced to leave their home country, then wait in another country while the US fully vetted them and processed their application, a process that could take two years or more.
Suddenly (in many cases, only days after their arrival) leaving families without food, shelter, language assistance, job counseling, or other support is an abomination and a betrayal of the highest order.
But you can help. Please consider a donation to the Refugee Program of the #Jewish Family & Children Service, or to the refugee #resettlement agency of your choice (such as #HIAS). Thank you!
Please boost this message so that others are given the opportunity to show our new neighbors that Americans can be welcoming and generous.

That's all without even mentioning the devastating effects on the dedicated resettlement professionals all over the country—working long hours for low pay—whose source of income is now in jeopardy. But worse, they are now required to sit and watch as the families (many with small children and elderly adults) they've been caring for are put in imminent danger of #homelessness and #foodInsecurity.
HOW TO HELP: call your representative in Congress and the Senate. Right now. Tell them that you cannot tolerate this cruelty. Then call your state's refugee coordinator's office and ask them to do what they can to support refugees in your state.
And again, please consider supporting #HIAS and your local #refugee #resettlement agencies directly. https://hias.org/donate

OK well #CNN has the story, so I can talk about this now.
The administration has ordered all #refugee #resettlement work in the country to stop immediately. A refugee family that arrived on Thursday and was placed into a hotel until longer term housing could be identified would today, Saturday, be homeless.
I remind everyone that refugees are not here "illegally". They've gone through a years-long process of application and vetting that resulted in their admittance to this country. As part of that process, the US agrees to provide support and assistance when they first arrive—help that has now been prematurely terminated, in violation of our commitments.
Expect this cruel and illegal action to be challenged in court as early as Monday. Please support #HIAS or your local resettlement agency so they can continue their critically important work.

The #State Dept abruptly canceled travel for thousands of #refugees already approved to fly to the #UnitedStates, days before a deadline that #Trump had set for suspending the #resettlement program that provides #SafeHaven for people fleeing persecution.
The cancellation of the flights comes on the heels of an #ExecutiveOrder signed by Trump on Monday that indefinitely paused the #refugee resettlement.

Bending the rules: How #Canada opened its doors to #Nazi #WarCriminals.
After #WWII thousands of ethnic #Germans came to Canada, aided by faith groups who helped steer government #resettlement programs. There was little background screening, poor security checks and an #antiSemitic bias. The #WaterlooRegionRecord’s Terry Pender documents how this led to Nazi war criminals quietly settling parts of Canada, including Waterloo Region.
How this happened is detailed in a #GovernmentOfCanada report, “Nazi War Criminals in Canada: The Historical And Policy Setting From the 1940s to the Present.” Known as The #RodalReport - it is a 600-page study prepared by Oxford-trained historian Alti Rodal for the #DeschênesCommission on Nazi War Criminals in Canada, which released its findings in 1986.
For decades, Ottawa refused to release the entirety of the Rodal report. The Waterloo Region Record filed an Access to Information request for a complete copy six years ago.
The Deschênes Commission said there were 29 cases of suspected Nazi war criminals in Canada that warranted special consideration because of the seriousness of the allegations and the availability of evidence against the men.
Among those priority cases was Waterloo resident Helmut Oberlander. The Record filed an Access to information Act request for the files on the other 28 cases, but Library and Archives Canada has refused to release any of the documents.

Theodore Dwight Weld helped start Lane Seminary. In this work, he tries to make the case that slavery had so corrupted a culture that it spilled out into hate and violence in all directions. Thus, in an antislavery tract, he commiserates with the Mormon victims of harassment and murder in Missouri.
How can you re-evaluate or tweak your primary causes based on the character of the people associated with it?

A group of #NorthKoreanDefectors has resettled in #Canada through #PrivateSponsorship for the first time, a Canada-based #HumanRights org. announced Wednesday.
#HanVoice said that the #defectors arrived at #Toronto Pearson Airport, where they were greeted by #Canadian sponsor groups holding welcome signs.
While HanVoice did not disclose the identities or genders of the defectors, media reports suggest they are all women who fled #NorthKorea before the COVID-19 pandemic and had been staying in a Southeast Asian country.
Canada now joins the U.S. and South Korea as the third country to legally accept North Korean defectors for #resettlement.
HanVoice launched its private sponsorship program for North Korean defectors in Oct. 2021, focusing on women and children, whom they describe as “the most vulnerable population of defectors.”
“Canada is the only country to resettle North Korean #refugees using a private sponsorship model, a ‘made-in-Canada’ community-led approach that has been copied around the world,” HanVoice previously said.

>> "#Netanyahu rules out #Gaza #resettlement: ‘It was never our aim’"
There are semantic games being played here between the link you provided above and the story we discussed a month after #Oct7 ➡️ https://mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/111371467310169058
In that story, Netanyahu said Israel will have "overall security responsibility" for Gaza for "indefinite period" AFTER war ends.
That's just like #WestBank.
What started as #securityResponsibility turned into #settlements.

"#Resettlement ist ein international anerkanntes flüchtlingspolitisches Instrument. Ziel des Resettlements ist es, besonders schutzbedürftigen #Menschen die legale und sichere #Einreise in einen aufnahmebereiten Drittstaat zu ermöglichen."
Klingt super, oder? Die Realität: Syrer werden aus Istanbul direkt nach Deutschland geflogen und sie können/müssen sich direkt beim Jobcenter anmelden. Dann warten sie 4 Wochen auf die Steuer-ID ... oder länger. :blobcat_grumpy:
