The comparisons have been with the mass exodus. Lets remember, the Jews were persecuted by the Germans just like the moderate Sunni and Shiites have been persecuted by ISIS. When the Jews started arriving en-mass on our British shores, they were persecuted by a suspicious nation who believed the propaganda spin. Likewise, the Muslims who are arriving on our shores are being looked upon with equal suspicion.
If there are some radicals in those groups, they would of got here anyway. What we all should agree on is, most of these people are totally innocent and don't deserve the sort of persecution some people here would happily hand out.
