Is it ethical to refuse accepting Syria war immigrants?

From my own perspective, it is unethical not to allow Syrian refugees into near countries. The Syrian people are suffering terribly due to a situation that was certainly exacerbated ,if not caused by reckless invasion of Iraq. To make all Syrians pay because a Syrian was implicated in the Paris terrorist attack it ridiculous. It is trying to kill a gnat with a sledge hammer.

When thinking about the situation of refugees two main considerations should be taken into account. First, refugees, insofar as they are fleeing violence and persecution, have rights to be given domicile in a safe place where they are able to engage in some kind of productive activity. This may not imply that they be given rights wherever they happen to be outside the country from which they are fleeing. But the international community has a duty to cooperate in resettling refugees in a place that is safe and welcoming.

Of course we need to be vigilant in keeping away terrorists . but our screening needs to be much more refined than this! I believe this exclusion is just an excuse to exercise our underlying racism, anti-Islam, and anti-immigrant sentiments. It is certainly a violation of our faith's call to welcome the foreigner and care for the needy.
