That we turn down one third of in-country asylum seekers is hardly reassuring. In most countries it's more like 90%.

According to DHS, they accepted 47% of their asylum seekers in 2015.   http://tinyurl.com/m4uoope

The European Union accepted 61% of asylum seekers in 2016, on first review.  http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php/Asylum_statistics

Russia accepts between 2% and 5% of asylum seekers.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refugees_and_asylum_in_Russia

Isreal accepts about 1% ... http://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium-1.600617

Harder to get figures for Middle East and Africa.   Japan doesn't seem to accept any refugees and China does, although not Syrians.
