The prefer to fund the jihad.
That’s how I see it. Let the Saudis and mega wealthy Gulf States fund the aid projects in their neck of the woods. They’re the ones to blame for not helping these people, they’re fellow Arabs and Muslims, they should want to fund them entirely.
Isolated and misinformed, Syrian refugees in Lebanon struggle to get access to aid
ZAHLEH, Beirut – Fear, confusion and a lack of information are preventing many Syrian refugees in Lebanon from knowing where to turn for aid.
With a constant surge of refugees now fighting the bitter winter cold, humanitarian organizations are struggling to find ways to reach them with the information they need to survive — and are recruiting some refugees to help out.
In Lebanon, where displaced Syrians now equal one-third of the population, the problem is made worse by the government’s refusal to establish official refugee camps, leading to a chaotic, fractured operation with major gaps in coordination.
Many distrust a Lebanese government they deem sympathetic to President Bashar Assad and are suspicious of international aid organizations, making them hesitant to register with the U.N. refugee agency to become eligible for assistance.
“Everyone, who comes here is confused and afraid,” said Elyse Maalouf, a UNHCR worker in Zahleh, one of two registration centers in Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley, where hundreds of informal refugee settlements have sprung up. “Many refugees are reluctant to register because they fear their names would be shared with the Syrian government.”
