That's kinda the point. When you condemn murderers, rapists, homophobes, and misogynists of one religion and shrug off murderers, rapists, homophobes, and misogynists of other religions, it raises a valid question of whether your objection is to murder, rape, homophobia, and misogyny, or if it's really to that religion.



You clearly didn't read what I wrote so I won't bother to comment further. You have a set idea in your mind and that's that. So be it.

Here's a proposal. How bout each country in the EU agree to take in 1/2 of 1% of their population per year for two years, and encourage non-EU countries to do the same? That'd take care of at least 3.5 million over two years.

Why complicate things? Just open the borders? "Love thy neighbour as thyself." Is there an exception clause in the Gospel concerning that verse?

Heck, if we're gonna go in and shoot everybody we see with no regard to whether they're military or civilian, wouldn't it be easier to just nuke the Middle East?

but what about blowback from the nuclear winds?

Winds blow from the west. So South Asia gets irradiated. I ain't got no friends there.

Very good point. Does South Asia have any means to retaliate against the US?
I believe both India and Pakistan have nuclear capability . The means to attack the U.S. is another matter .

I suppose they could send us a coupla million more immigrants.

Cancer-ridden? They'd probably escape to wherever they could, so to the Far East. China might not be happy about that, and it is a nuclear power. To play it safe, I say nuke South Asia too. Once they're all dead, there can be no refugees from there to harass China. But what about the nuclear winds from South Asia? Where would they go?

I believe both India and Pakistan have nuclear capability . The means to attack the U.S. is another matter .

I'm sure they'd learn quickly enough after the US irradiates them. So to play it safe, nuke them first and let the winds blow where they may, to China maybe? Heck, nuke China too just to be safe, then Japan, and then we get the winds blowing to Canada. Oh heck, Canada's not a nuclear power anyway. But I wonder how that would affect world trade and the economy?

Here's my take. Since some of you are younger, touchy feely types, this should appeal.

You live in a neightbourhood with some bullies. Do you move? Hell no! But frankly, you do not have the knowledge or skill set to deal with the troublemakers. You need guidance, but who do you turn to?

The UN isn't much help. They talk a lot, but haven't been of much use since their inceptuon.

That leaves Big Brother. A double entendre to be sure.

The US
Russia

Neither one likes when the other gets too involved in the affairs of other countries. They complain. Point fingers. Make accusations. Threaten. But - and this must be clearly understood - neither side does anything, unless they genuinely believe the actions of the other are a threat to their standing in the world.

In effect, that's why most countries in the ME have received arms and support from both sides over the years.

A little known fact is this practice maintains a balance. Oh, many might think it outdated, but the fact is, humans want to be led - regardless of ethnicity, religion or where they live.

Time to re-examine what we used to do. Send in some advisors, arms and empower the locals. Get them involved in taking back their own streets. Humans that feel empowered are less likely to run. They clean up the own neighbourhoods- with some help - and let the bullies know they are fed up.

It slows immigration. Contains the problem. Empowers the people.

This doesn't cure itself overnight, but the present problem is ballooning out of control.The only end, should things continue to escalate, will be nukes.

You're absolutely correct. To avoid retaliation, you'd have to shoot off all of your nukes at the same time to eliminate countries on the other side of the world. To prevent fallout over the US, you might want to coordinate that with conventional armaments in all of the neighbouring countries. That combined with fallout on them will kill them all off too. You don't want to drop too many nukes to get a nuclear winter that starves the US out either though.

Perhaps limit the Americas to conventional armaments only. That way youd can claim their weather, their bananas, and their pineapples. But the Old World, yeah, just nuke it good. But save half your nukes. If South America presents resistance, drop one on Rio de Janaiero as a warning to the rest. They'll learn English in no time flat after that. No more hispanic problem. They'll all be true blue Yankees after that.

Yes, for the time being, although the rate these people multiply (a min. of 12 kids/female)

I have an idea, how about we ship all the adults back and take in a lot more kids and fill up the old folks homes with them and they can sleep under a bed if that is what they want. Give them the option of going back 'home' when they are adults, If they want a gun give them one and as much ammo as they can carry.





Luckily this guy had all his children escape being killed.

The two biggest problems with uncontrolled immigration are:

1. You do not solve the problem that caused the exodus.

2. The problem festers and, like a cancer, will grow. In this case, beyond its original border, threatening other nations.

There are several additional problems. They include cultural clashes between citizens and immigrants. The immigrants only know where they came from and do not adapt well to their new home. Policing becomes necessary.

The costs involved in resettlement are high. Housing, health care, language training and employment. These are especially noticable in countries with sluggish economies.

How far are the host countries willing to go? How far should they go to accomodate the immigrants?

Of course that sounds like an idea predicated on a continuous flow of refugees from western instigated war zones. Wouldn't it be better to suspend your nations aspirations of world dominance and thereby throttle the flow of displaced? Or insist that the attacking nation get saddled with the entire lot of refugees they created. It is said that seventy per-cent of these refugees decending on Europe are males of military age. Further to that it is also known that these are fifth columists waiting for the signal to begin mercenary warfare within Europe to destabalize the continent. These are not ligitimate refugees, these are Soros agents of Chaos. You should look to the source of problems for the fixes and not suggest some idiot quota system which would ultimately increase the flow and with it the friction. Are you hopeing to destabalize Europe?

I got a couple of f*cking questions?? There have been refugees from (just) Syria for about 5 years but these are the first ones offered sanctuary and even then there is a 2 year screening process as they wait in a refugee camp. History is repeating itself all right. Who will these ones be, the death squads of the NSA?? Former ISIS like operatives that live isolated from mainstream America, they all have jobs, mainstream America, not so much.

What about the Americans? Their role in the mid east is long and continuing.......

I like the message but I doubt it will be seen by everyone under the NATO umbrella, know what I mean??

Might I suggest the Arabic version on all the hardware we ship to ISIS. Headliner of the truck, side of the rocket launcher, you know where it will be highly visible.
