"ISIS will come for our women”. That’s how one resident expressed his
fears about the proposed settling of refugees in the US state of
Montana.
Around 100 refugees could
be moving to the American West thanks to a local group in Missoula who
were inspired to help after seeing the photo of a drowned Syrian boy
whose family had fled the conflict.
But people in the
neighbouring rural county are not happy. A local politician told the BBC
they want a guarantee refugees will not be a threat - and he warned of a
culture clash between any Muslim refugees from Syria and the
predominantly white local population.
