<p>If you follow the news at all, there’s no way to avoid hearing about what some are portraying as a grave threat to our country – an “invasion” by a <a href="https://www.patheos.com/blogs/dispatches/2018/11/05/army-assessment-of-refugee-caravan-shows-trump-is-lying/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“caravan” of “dangerous criminals”</a> with plans to “attack our borders”. The claims are that there are “ISIS” “terrorists” who are “unknown Middle Easterners,” “hardened criminals” and “very tough fighters” who are “bringing smallpox” and have intentions of spreading mayhem. Tens of thousands of military troops have been dispatched to the border to quell this “insurrection.”</p>
<p>Cooler heads realize that the so-called caravan – many hundreds of miles from our border – is composed of, at most, a couple thousand people mainly from Honduras. For these mostly women and children, many with nothing but the clothes on their back – shoeless, even – things are so bad in their home countries that they are willing to risk the trip </p><br />
