My understanding is the British have taken 2,000 Iraqi refugees, as did the Americans, and it was only a bill through Congress that.... They were taking people who worked directly for them, as interpreters or bodyguards, etc.
This is not being prioritized on the need or the danger of refugees. The people who work for the occupying forces are now being considered the ones who have priority, because, to put it mildly, if they go back to the civilian situation in Iraq they're dead meat. They are seen as collaborators with the occupiers.
