Dennis McNamara Quotations

My urgent message to all the refugees in the camps is, 'Don't come back yet, it's not safe,'

We need to put you in another camp where it's safe, She says she'll go if everyone else goes.

They don't have the basic necessities, let alone medical supplies,schooling, everything that we take for granted, ... We can turn it around quickly, as I said, provided the environment is conducive to that.

Hollie is part of our power game. She can hit the ball pretty well. Megan plays good defense and is able to read her opponents well. Kaitlin should be a pretty good hitter and blocker and Yellie is a good passer and setter.

They can't return people into a conflict area.

We don't want to be unduly intimidated by the thugs, the extremists who are presumably behind this, but we have to balance that with the security of the people.

The moral imperative is clear -- you have to build them a better life.

This is not a big movement of refugees, ... We're starting to organize now in a much more systematic way, bringing back people who need our assistance, who are maybe afraid to come back on their own, who can't afford to pay to come on their own, and we're taking them to the areas where KFOR has agreed there's a secure environment.

The problem is that those who are the worst off are the first to move. You would need the strong to go back first, but instead it is the women, children and disabled who are going back,

These are very vulnerable people with all their worldly assets on the move and often without men, for example women and children, or without their clans - their normal structures of protection.
