This crisis is still ongoing. There is nothing to forget and its certainly too early to forgive. When a humanitarian crisis is in full swing, as it is now, its important that we understand how that crisis came about because understanding may touch us with a tiny ounce of compassion and whilst we have compassion, we will strive to find solutions.

I don't know what the answer is, all I know is, they are a displaced people, they are my fellow human beings and I hope and wish they find peace and comfort for themselves and their families.

That's very admirable of you, which I'm sure comes from your Western culture.

But I'd hazard a guess that the majority of them don't hope and wish the same for you.

Could you please stop trolling and derailing the thread please?

There's no need for you to make disgusting insinuations against me, just because I'm not you.

I believe that the majority of People coming in from The Middle east and Asia have very little if anything culturally in common with The West, and I believe that they have no intention of embracing our culture and values but rather striving to impose their own on us all.


I have no problem with the people, I have a problem with their culture and values.

That's my opinion on an issue.

You personally insinuated that I have some kind of phobia to foreigners, I think you did that because you wanted to make yourself look better than me.

That's an insinuation right there, I drew a comparison is all I don't want to look better than anyone.

Well your new avatar probably gives the wrong impression? I mean, Alf Garnett has to be one of the most bigoted, anti Irish, racist, misogynistic and anti-Semitic man who was ever let loose on our television screens.

Because Alf's were generic and NOT specifically and personally directed at any member on here - unlike your insulting comments which were specifically and personally directed at him?

You asked, so I am merely proposing an answer.

As you can clearly see they were directed at DR. Hope that clarifies things to your satisfaction.
