Following the Paris terrorist attacks, there’s been pushback by a growing number of American politicians to halt the flow of Syrian refugees to the United States.

Ford is currently Senior Fellow at the Middle East Institute in Washington D.C.,where he writes about developments in the Levant and North Africa.
