text: You might benefit from reading the articles you post.  I think your response was a little disengenious to say the least.  Per your linked article (did you even read it?!):
  "...the State Department stopped processing Iraq refugees for six months in 2011, federal officials told ABC News - even for many who had heroically helped U.S. forces as interpreters and intelligence assets.'
  
  'About 1,000 soon-to-be immigrants in Iraq were told that they would not be allowed to board flights already booked. Some were removed from planes. Thousands more Iraqi applicants had to restart the immigration process, because their security clearances expired when the program stalled. Men must now pass five separate checks, women four, and children three."
  
  Sound familiar?  Not allowed on flights, remived from planes...
