A small number. actually. by comparison to what little Sweden. for example. was willing to do. a country a fraction of our size. and they arent the country who engineered this war nor are occupying Iraq. Well. in a few months that goal of 7.000 was reduced to 2.000. As the fiscal year ended this last weekend. we fell short even of that reduced goal: Only 1.600 of these Iraqi refugees were brought into this country. Our failure to step up is having serious operational consequences. Ambassador Crocker in a memo that has been I suppose leaked but widely published. widely disseminated here in Washington.
