Imagine an average American guy who’s about 6 inches taller and 100 pounds heavier than a typical Burmese guy, and he’s holding a knife. He’s fighting four smaller built Burmese men and actually winning, and it looks like he might stab one of them.

When their refugee applications are eventually approved, the U.S. already has extensive information about them gathered over many years. These individuals are not unknown walk-ins; they are captive refugees living in monitored environments, making it entirely feasible for the U.S. to verify their identities and conduct thorough background checks before granting resettlement.

They were given food and shelter in refugee camps and told to wait in limbo until their home country become peaceful again. Sadly, many are second or third generation residents of the camp.

There are many refugee camps inside Thailand housing the large population of Myanmar nationals feeling the ongoing civil war. They were given housing and food by the UN hopefully until their country become peaceful again. Unfortunately, peace never come to Myanmar and many are still living in those camps for generations.
