"I think that Christian minorities are being persecuted in Syria and even if the conflict were over they would still be persecuted," she said.
"That includes Maronites, it includes Yazidis, there are Druze, there are a whole range of ethnic and religious minorities that make up the populations in both Syria and Iraq."
Druze's social customs differ markedly from those of Muslims or Christians, and they are known to form a close-knit, cohesive community but also integrate fully in their adopted homelands.
i cannot say i disagree with that line of thinking . From the Australian foreign minister . "I think that Christian minorities are being persecuted in Syria and even if the conflict were over they would still be persecuted," she said.

We cannot afford to take these people in because our security will be at risk because there is too great a risk of ISIS agents and sleeper cells infiltrating Australia with them and they will place the security of Australia at risk off imminent terrorist attacks in shopping centres, football stadiums, cricket ovals, schools, airport departue and arrival lounges, casinos, car parks, hospitals, night clubs and numerous other places.
We have lost far too much rights and privacy to have our security jepardised by a boatload of refugees from a country in there are known to be tens of thousands of ISIS troops. There are 10s of thousands of ISIS troops in Syria because the most powerfull milit-tree machine the world has even known has been trying to bomb them to bits for 12 months and still cant make any headway becuase the now need the support of Australia.
If ISIS troops can reisist that might then there is no doubt that if they got into Australia we would be unable to defend ourselves against them and they would take us over and perhaps kill us all.
If readers really wanted to help Syrian refugees, start telling the US to back off and leave the Syria alone and stop trying to get rid of Assad.

Bravo, lets not let another one in, just in case.
Muslims who were among migrants trying to get from Libya to Italy in a boat this week threw 12 fellow passengers overboard -- killing them -- because the 12 were Christians,
About 100 migrants from the boat died after a fight broke out over the final scraps of food, survivors said.
Thousands more remain in unseaworthy boats, forced to endure unimaginable hardships, as the vessels they are travelling in are pushed out to sea and stopped from reaching land by the Indonesian, Thai and Malaysian navies.
