Only 30 percent of Syrians said they would like to continue living in Syria, according to a Gallup survey that was conducted in Syria in January and published this week.
Another 46 percent of Syrians said they would like to permanently move to another country and 24 percent said they “don’t know” whether they would like to permanently move or stay.
Thirty-nine percent of Syrians who said they want to leave Syria named a country in Europe as the place they would like to go. That made Europe the most popular destination for Syrians who would like to permanently leave their country.
The Middle East and North Africa was the second most popular destination for Syrians who would like to permanently leave their country. Thirty-five percent of those who said they wanted to leave Syria named a country in one of those regions as they place they would like to go.
Only 6 percent of the Syrians who said they would like to permanently move out of Syria named the United States or Canada as the place they would like to go.

Seriously,why do we need to know this? Is it because we are being conditioned for the inevitable and desensitizing us to it via the media is the method of choice.We have known for decades that the US is the desired destination of half of the world.We do not need to know this again.
ReplyDeleteAbout 30% of Americans want to live elsewhere, too.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet that that number would apply to lots of places.
ReplyDeleteYa, because their country is all blown apart, duh.
ReplyDeleteIf only 6% of Syrians want to come here, then we shouldn't be importing tens of thousands of them, who won't even be grateful to be here.
ReplyDeleteWho in the hell cares? Send them all to Siberia.
