Senator Graham states he feels like chopped liver compared to the press attention to Bono. That is a very interesting impression, he should work on that.
Senator Graham is going to make the argument that refugee status would be better mediated by USA military intervention. I suppose that is like Iraq where hundreds of thousands of people died. I have a feeling if Refugees were given a choice they would prefer refugee status.
Senator Graham states any lack of action is not reasonable and wants to fund a long term strategy to help the refugees.
Radical ideology is not spreading like wild fire. The Arab nations are finally looking to each other to bring about regional stability.

Jeddah:: Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman (click here) was received by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan at the Presidential palace in Ankara on Tuesday in an official welcoming ceremony as the king begins a state visit to the country.
President Erdogan said that King Salman is a loyal friend and described the Saudi leadership as a wise safety valve in the region.
The Turkish president honored the king with the Order of the State of Republic of Turkey, the highest state order in the country.
The king received a 21-gun salute and was welcomed by the prime minister as well as senior officials of the Turkish republic.
Saudi Arabia’s monarch is due to attend the OIC meeting in Istanbul later this week...
On this same page of reporting on King Salman and the meeting with President Erdogan is an advertisement of the Universal Studios Harry Potter experience. That means the people of Saudi Arabia like the British and the Americans and love to come to such fun as offered by Universal Studios. That is important. No one is looking forward to the next vacation with Daesh and fighting the countries currently engaged with Daesh's containment and destruction.
Why is it the Republicans can't understand the entire world has united regarding this genocidal regime and the world is winning. Harry Potter lives!
WATER SECURITY. Now, that makes sense since Syria's civil war is linked directly to drought LEADING TO FOOD INSECURITY for an entire country.
Anthony Blinken Deputy Secretary of State notes the hardship many families in Europe carry with the loss of dearly loved children/young people. These parents are reaching outside of their pain and finding purpose to end radical Islamism. They are very brave parents unafraid to being the voice of their lost children. Their bravery cannot go unrecognized.
"The One Campaign" - no filibuster promised as the Irish discovered the filibuster. Bono states aid is not charity, it is national security. When it is managed without corruption and to the benefit of those that are suppose to receive it, it is the best tool the world has to end such violence. Five of the countries hosting refugees are African.
African countries cannot afford to support refugees.
Bono states the stability of Europe is at stake and they need to be valued as allies in the fight against violent extremism.
African young people cannot be marginalized because their outcomes could be into violent extremism. Bono is advocating to effective support to the refugees. The UN is having many meetings and press coverage, but, the checks are not forthcoming. The agencies involved cannot plan.
Bono wants the global community to appreciate the countries that are not available to extremists YET.
That is important. What good is the stability of Yemen if Saudi Arabia or Egypt is becoming unstable. We all know how the extremists migrated in Iraq from town to town only to return to the place they left a month before. The same type of fluid circumstances can occur on a larger scale. The countries marginalizing extremism today need to be stable and consistent in their efforts. With that established the opportunity for greater violence minimizes as they are defeated.
Bono wants the USA to support the refugee efforts. First, I think Samantha Powers needs to ask for an accounting of monies promised to the agencies waiting to move into the refugee camps with new ideas that improve their quality of life.
Second, she also needs to give an accounting of the USA membership fees and other promised donations in regard to refugee efforts.
Then, a Democratic Senator needs to expose the amounts CUT FROM THE BUDGET of the US State Department for the USAID PROGRAMS.
Is Patty Murphy still working with the US House to guarantee that USAID is fully funded?
There are issues in the USA that need to be addressed equally as important. That means there needs to be taxation to meet these demands. The cuts to the USA budget over the years by Gover Norquist NEEDS TO END!
I am sure the European Union has their hands full in funding their own needed improvements in their communities, the refugees already in Europe and it's needed added security. There should be a report to the American people from the EU that compels them to understand the stress the EU monies are under to protect their security, hence, ours as well. The American people have to come to understand how great an ally they are and how their compassion brings about such differences to the world in general.
Current cuts planned by the US House and Senate will impale the efforts required today.
If he can, Bono should make the rounds in the USA to bring reality to the American people. It has to become a viable political issue. This comes down to taxation and the intent of the right wing Republicans to continue to cut funding to very delicate issues. Politics is the only thing that will end this draconian agenda of the USA Republicans. Bono wants to end the spread. It sounds right.
Africa’s Sahel region (click here) faces many complex and interconnected challenges. Here are some of the major ones, and how the United Nations is assisting the region in finding solutions.
Senator Leahy states it is the experience of the USA government when these governments are given more funding there is greater problems with civil rights like imprisoning people speaking out against the extremists. It has to be looked at.
Senator Mikulski believes the focus has to be on the children.
If there is oppression of people speaking out about Daesh, there has to be some kind of pressure on the government to bring about that result. Where is the holy man?
East Africa (click here) is currently experiencing the worst drought to hit the region in 60 years. The UN has officially declared famine in parts of southern Somalia—regions of Lower Shabelle and southern Bakool. It is predicted that the entire south of Somalia will face famine within the next two months. Operation USA is working to assess unmet needs on the ground, with its initial response focusing on water resource needs in Kenya’s Dadaab refugee camps. The Dadaab camps–the largest in the world–are reported to receive as many as 1,300 refugees a day, the majority fleeing war-torn Somalia. These camps house almost 400,000 displaced people in three camps originally designated for 90,000....
General James Jones states the USA doesn't get credit for doing great things such as building schools, etc,, where investors such as the Chinese in Africa are not. The Chinese companies bring their own workers.
America is not looking out unless it is sending it's military because of budget cuts to humanitarian programs while it continues to seek more and more funding for the military. Perhaps the USA military needs a change in MISSION being to end hunger and thirst in Africa.
This is the current right wing nonsense circulating in the political realm in the USA. The people who are environmentally conscience are being encouraged to seek the mentoring of possibly a counselor 'to let go' of the values they hold dear. It is silly by those that want to end the climate crisis, but, it is extremism meeting up with extremism.
It is the political mess of the right wing in the USA that brings about tax cuts that bring about a diluted reality and the USA's responsibility in the world. Then we have Wall Street Banks pouring over China's potential for profits without realizing China's profitability is not to be shared in the first place. Tell Wall Street to realize China's profitability relies on NO INVOLVEMENT in global issues.
I watched the treasury Secretary Paulson work his craft during the early years before 2008. It was amazing. His working office was not in Washington, DC; it was in China. Then September 2008 hit and there was a $700 billion bailout. Shortly thereafter, Paulson was in China with his own investment firm. These are the people supported by the political right wing in the USA. Try ending that and we all might get somewhere.
I don't lie:

Support Josh Fox (click here), he is doing his level best. He has been 'in the fight' since the fight was necessary.
If the USA military was ever assigned a new mission based in humanitarian efforts, it would not last long before the extremists would be moving to where the American soldiers could be found!
