So Assad and Harper have something in common after all.


Syria's Bashar Assad blames Europe for refugee crisis

Syrian President Bashar Assad has blamed Europe's refugee crisis on Western support for "terrorists", as people fleeing his country's civil war stream towards the European Union.

In his first public comments on the mass migration, broadcast on Wednesday, Assad said Europe could expect more refugees.

The Syrian president dismissed Western suggestions that his government's actions in the war had fuelled the spread of such groups.

The Syrian government describes all the armed groups fighting it as terrorists.

In the event of a rebellion here, I'm sure we will all be able to recognize that Colpy is a terrorist too!

The same number of carbon credits he's bought I'd guess.

He has already stated it's not his job. He really puts the as$ in compassion.

Yeah, they have similar gonads!

Private sponsorships are not enough.

Give a number.

 

[mentalfloss]

None, which only reinforces my point.

Private sponsorships are not enough.

 

[petros]

That you put the as$ in compassion and pass the buck?

Still waiting ...

Yes I am aware of your exuse on running that deficit.

 

[petros]

Is it debt?


Canada will be supplying additional humanitarian assistance for victims of the conflict in Syria.

International Development Minister Christian Paradis on Saturday announced that the federal government will match “eligible” Canadian donations up to $100-million under the Syrian Emergency Relief Fund.

That’s in addition to $503.5-million in humanitarian assistance funding Canada has already allocated for humanitarian efforts in Syria and neighbouring countries since the beginning of Syria’s civil war

Cough up poopsiefloss.

1/2 $Billion and counting....

 

[mentalfloss]

Yes I am also aware that our contributions are pitifully low compared to the other G7 countries.

 

[petros]

Per capita?

 

[EagleSmack]

None, which only reinforces my point.

That's why progressives are the cheapest!

NIMBYism

 

[mentalfloss]

Per capita?

Yes even per capita.

The UNHCR ranks Canada not first, but tied for 41st place in refugees per capita.

But I'm not surprised you'd fall for Harper's lies.

 

[petros]

41st out of 7?

 

[EagleSmack]

Your contribution is zero. Far below mine. But you are a liberal and a progressive so that is keeping in line with your flock.

41st out of 7?

I bet Luxembourg is once again #1 or close to it.

 

[JLM]

Yes I am also aware that our contributions are pitifully low compared to the other G7 countries.

Where is it carved in stone that anyone has to contribute to that specific charity? (I just sent my contribution to the Terry Fox fund)

 

[EagleSmack]

Yes even per capita.

I'm not surprised you mixed up refugees with donations.
