We can't set real numbers of asylum seekers because everyone has the right to seek asylum no matter how much we try to manipulate.

And the refugees mostly do not rot in camps in Africa, 75% of them are quite urban and live in third world countries.

And the resettlement program is voluntary and nothing to do with the right to seek asylum under the refugee convention.

Why don't you wander off and read the DIAC website.

Read DIAC?! The mob which is presiding over this fiasco, you must be joking. Why don't you read this:

http://www.refugeesinternational.org/get-involved/helpful-facts-%2526-figures

And perhaps explain where you get your 75% urban figure from.

Also address pressing peripheral issues such as Sharia law, sustainable population levels and concurrent levels of non-refugee immigrants.
