The uncle of the three-year-old Syrian boy whose lifeless body has put a devastating human face on the Syrian refugee crisis has assailed Canada's refugee process.

Rocco Logozzo told The Canadian Press that the system doesn't work, adding his family had money and plenty of room to house little Aylan Kurdi and his brother and parents at his home in Coquitlam, B.C., and had put in a private sponsorship request.

Instead, the family and a B.C. politician says Canada rejected the request in June. It wasn't immediately clear why they were turned down.
So they actually know who that child was.I thought he was a John Doe.I know it's grasping at straws but that's something at least.He can be buried with his mums name

That image of the young boy's hapless body face down on the beach will forever be ingrained in my psyche.

This kid has a free card to Jennah Firdosa, I envy him.

They offered citizenship now to his father and he declined. Waa nin rag ah. He denied Canada to play the savior after tragedy even though they rejected earlier to process his application.

Losing someone close to you like that can take a toll but people who believe in death being a door to eternal life can go through the experience and come out okay in the end. This is when having faith helps a human being.

Talk about shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted. I'm glad he refused their face saving measure.He wanted a safe haven for his wife and children what good is a Canadian passport to him now

I don't mean to be heartless I do feel for the boy and his family (Inshallah Jannah) but innocent children die everyday. Just because I see the photo of one boy doesn't mean I'm gonna come out enraged or become saddened or depressed, this is the world we live in. No one thinks or cares for these other kids, who die from starvation or dehydration for example even though we all know it happens. If this image helps to stop further kids dying on the perilous journey to Europe then it can only be a good thing, but it wont and I guarantee that within a week 99% of us will have moved on and forgotten about it.

It's a crazy world..

What's even crazier is the West and their politicians who are destroying Syria, who are making countless people flee their homes and neighborhoods yet got the nerve to play the role of the good samaritan by addressing the same refugee crisis they created. They destroyed a stable country with an educated middle class and working class just for the sake of geopolitics. They couldn't care less about this young boy.

The reason why Western Media is highlighting these events is because it coincides with the political agenda of the US and its ''allies''. Cameron blamed President Bashar al-Assad, who's the legitimate president of Syria through democratic election and ISIS, who was created by the CIA/Mossad and who's now, ironically, being backed by SAS troops inside Syrian territory, for the drowning of that young boy.

Over 300 people died of the coast of Libya a year ago, pregnant women and children. They talked about it once or twice on the news but that's it. The death of those African migrants had no political value and therefore we do not see the images we are seeing now.

It's surreal..

In 2010 I had planned to travel to Syria and my birth city of Xalab (Aleppo). Unfortunately, I never went and now it seems it will never happen. However I pray for the Syrian people, waa dad nasab ah unlike the Dirac wearing Khaleeji Arabs and Midgaan Yemenis.

I have this picture in my house of me as an infant and our Syrian neighbors. Islaan yar oo masiixiyad ah oo i hayn jirtay. I wonder what happened to those people..

AUN to the kid but innocent children die everyday all around the world in many kinds of horrible ways. They don't get a story written about them and posted all over newspapers and the internet. I'm not gonna get sucked into this manufactured western media sob-story.

FIFY(fixed it for you): Allaha u naxaristo dhamaan intii dhimatay dhibatadana [dhamaan] allah ha ka qaado

I understand that you (probably) didn't mean any undue distinction and that it is simply a somali figure of speech(intii muslim ah), but still, we need to reform our speech just as we need to reform our beliefs from sectarian'ism, kala-sooc-soocid, iyo kala-qaybin. In death & tragedy, all human beings are united in grief & mourning.

نام يا صغيري
الامارات مشغولة ببناء معبد للبوذيين
نام يا صغيري
وقطر مشغولة ايضا ببناء اكبر كنيسة للامريكين
نام يا صغيري
السعودية مشغولة كثيرا فهي تقاتل ايران بالحوثيين
وترمم قبر سيدنا محمد لتبهرالناظرين

نام يا صغيري
فلبنان جارك مطمور بزبالة الوافدين
نام يا صغيري
فالكويت مشغول باستخراج البنزين لطيران امريكا والصين
نام يا صغيري
العراق مثخن بالجراح ولا يقوى الا على بعضه ودماره يقيني
نام يا صغيري فالصومال بلد الجرب لم تقبل بك الا باقامة وتأشيرة ممهورة من الامريكي
نام يا صغيري
فليبيا تدمرت فوق رؤوس الساكنيني
نام يا صغيري
فجيبوتي مريضة ولا تقوى على ارضاع طفل بريئي

I understand the frustration of that poem's writer, but this part:
نام يا صغيري
الامارات مشغولة ببناء معبد للبوذيين
نام يا صغيري
وقطر مشغولة ايضا ببناء اكبر كنيسة للامريكين
نام يا صغيري
السعودية مشغولة كثيرا فهي تقاتل ايران بالحوثيين
وترمم قبر سيدنا محمد لتبهرالناظرين


is pure sectarian drivel. Muslims worship freely all over the world, why can't non-Muslims enjoy that same freedom of worship? Orthodoxy & dogma be damned.....it's the very simple Golden Rule: do unto others.....
