Their claim for asylum in Australia has been rejected, but the Iraqi Christian insists on finding a "legal way" to obtain refugee status in Europe or elsewhere.
"I don't want anything illegal," he says.
Fellow Iraqi Christian Fadi Aziz, his wife and four girls have been waiting five years for a country in which to resettle.

This is just wrong here. A bunch of fighting age Muslim dudes get to sneak in AND stay in Europe but these Christian Arabs are left behind.

I would think this is an issue that former President Bush would be heavily involved in, as he pretty much created the situation in Iraq and, in addition, has never been shy about speaking about his strong ties to Christianity. As a former president he could have a lot of influential input into this situation.

Have not heard much from him about this issue, though, nor from Cheney or any of the other Christians who helped to create this morass of Iraqi refugees. Where is the outcry in the US to take in these refugees? Oh, right--there is a strong movement in the US not to take in any immigrants refugees.
