I am likely far from being in any way wise in even answering your response knowing the abuse likely to be fired back.

However,If they were called up for military service in war torn Syria,then either the opposition forces or IS will likely kill them.

If they remain in Syria and are opposed to IS activities then I would think anyone would easily assume they would lkely be killed, as many have been elswhere in Iraq for instance, for opposing IS.

I would have thought that was basic commonsense that in any of those scenarios the likely result would be in the end probably their own deaths.
Hence them fleeing such a desperate state of affairs.

I fear for the world is the Muslims get a strong foothold in Europe as they already have in Africa and Asia.

I think Islam is a toxic hate group, more needs to be done to contain them, not help them spread to new continents.

As a gay man i have every reason to fear the spread of Islam.

For example, IS need a vulnerable population both to pick on and to spread the climate of fear. That is what feeds them, and strengthens them. Those fleeing (legitimately) are no longer there to terrorise, so it is in IS's interests to have as few people fleeing as possible. They want closed borders!. One thing is sure, Merkel is not stupid, and she may in fact be playing a blinder

I'm not advocating that anyone should be left in a country where they are unsafe, I just think there is a better way if doing it, being water cannoned, waiting for trains that don't show or at least are seriously overcrowded, the most vulnerable have no chance as it a free for all

Being of course an endless sceptic when it comes to any official body ever having good intentions when it comes right down to it - I have to agree with you there. The fact that Germany tried to conquer Europe through force not 80 years ago, failed, and has since rebuilt and excelled in what has to be record time after such a defeat, only to coincidentally effectively control Europe through other means... Well. I'm not much of a believer in coincidence, put it that way. It's one of those situations where "something doesn't sit quite right".

Just another TS conspiracy theory, right?

merkel is an idiot, germany,france,britain should make the same move as hungry, and austria, these refugees have an ideology that if they don't get what they want, they will kill to get their goal, the men are from a culture where being chauvinist is the way of life for women, merkel was forewarned about the danger and risk that these men would rape german girls as young as ten, but she still let them in, think that having a rotherham scandal in every city in europe, who will the people vote for then, are democracy will fall apart, because we took a big risk in opening the floodgates, and turning are country into a cesspit.

The Daily Mail said something very similar to this about the Jews in 1939

Yes it's hate speech against a religious group and frowned on here in the UK.

Things like this really worry me. The huge majority of muslims don't seek to hurt gay people. Don't generalise and have prejudice against a group when you really have no reason to.

The difference being that the Jews weren't laying waste to large parts of the Middle East at the time, suicide bombing, raping, murdering, beheading people and sending the message that they will never stop till their flag flies above Westminster and the White House.

Morning Liv.

youre comparing apples with oranges...though the Zionist movement has been pretty disgraceful im not sure its as big a threat to the world as radial islam, but I may be wrong

Nice to see the thoughts of refugees on this

More than 100 rabbis have delivered a letter to David Cameron urging him to accelerate and expand proposals for the UK to take in refugees fleeing the civil war in Syria, reminding the prime minister of those who welcomed Jews fleeing the Nazis last century.
Among delegates handing in the letter at No 10 on Monday morning were two people who came to the UK on the Kindertransport, which rescued 10,000 Jewish children from the Nazi threat between 1938 and 1940. Many of the rabbis who signed the letter were the children of refugees.

The group calls on the British government to offer asylum to a minimum of 10,000 “legitimate refugees” in the next six months. Cameron has said the government is willing to take 20,000 refugees over five years. Their letter also urges the government to re-examine asylum policies, in particular to allow refugees to work.
The letter says: “As rabbis and cantors we regularly read the story of a band of refugees who escaped from a tyrant with only the clothes on their backs and a bit of flat bread. They crossed a sea, and they dreamed of a promised land. We call this the exodus, and it is our founding beacon for hope, and our constant reminder in every generation to open our hearts and our doors to the stranger at our gates.”
