obarfo will want to bring them all here. --- of course, that's what US interventionists do ... repeatedly. A total of 73,293 persons were admitted to the United States as refugees during 2010. The leading countries of nationality for refugee admissions were Iraq (24.6%), Burma (22.8%), Bhutan (16.9%), Somalia (6.7%), Cuba (6.6%), Iran (4.8%), DR Congo (4.3%), Eritrea (3.5%), Vietnam (1.2%) and Ethiopia (0.9%). Each year, the _President of the United States_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_of_the_United_States) sends a proposal to the Congress for the maximum number of refugees to be admitted into the country for the upcoming fiscal year, as specified under section 207(e) (1)-(7) of the _Immigration and Nationality Act_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_and_Nationality_Act_of_1965) . This number, known as the "refugee ceiling", is the target of annual lobbying by both refugee advocates seeking to raise it and anti-immigration groups seeking to lower it. However, once proposed, the ceiling is normally accepted without substantial Congressional debate. The _September 11, 2001 attacks_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_11_attacks) resulted in a substantial disruption to the processing of resettlement claims with actual admissions falling to about 26,000 in _fiscal year_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiscal_year) 2002. Claims were doublechecked for any suspicious activity and procedures were put in place to detect any possible terrorist infiltration, though some advocates noted that, given the ease with which foreigners can otherwise legally enter the U.S., entry as a refugee is comparatively unlikely. The actual number of admitted refugees rose in subsequent years with refugee ceiling for 2006 at 70,000. Critics note these levels are still among the lowest in 30 years.
