86 dead in Syria. All civilians too. Yet, our euro supremacists here don't give a shit. So, dickheads, explain this one

Because unfortunately, some people only care about what happens to them. They only care about food, money and "me, me, me, me, me"

The second they feel their launch plate is getting smaller, they turn rogue. And they're ok with war and ISIS as long as it's killing other "people" but not them.

86 dead, my god what a massacre

Tbh there is no best solution. Every solution has positives and negatives.

I think the initial step should be to sort out the civil war in Syria. Once there is unity in Syria, then there can be plans made for a proper invasion against ISIS forces. They are nothing if the west combine forces to launch an invasion.

However that's unlikely due to no one willing to take that drastic step nor anyone willing to dirty their hands.

trust me when I tell you more than 10k would have made it to the uk. But even some of them rich Middle East countries could do more. The transition to a Middle East county would be far easier than they do in Europe.

Trust you? You're a 41 year old idiot who still can't get his head out of his ass. You're a modern day redneck idiot who despite being English can't string sentences together. Nah. I'll trust the facts, not some dumbass who has no idea what's going on in the world

No. You aren't. But stop including everyone of us in your rhetoric. A lot of us don't believe in an imaginary friend, me included. Then, you'll stop being a dumbass

I think you are getting mad at the wrong person/people mate.

@FennecFox

You overstepped the line with the blatant insults, I'm afraid, and I have to doc you 25% for it.

@Unique

I would advise you to temper your tone as well. If you goad other people to lose their temper with your comments once more, I will dock you another 25% as well.

In General:

If this thread devolves to mere name calling, I will lock it, so please at least try to stay polite!

Of course it's absolutely awful. My personal opinion is that this operation over there shouldn't be happening at all. The West should get out of there. To my small delight I saw news of a possible exit plan yesterday morning:

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-36852189

The US and its allies in the coalition against so-called Islamic State (IS) have agreed on a strategy to defeat the group, US Defence Secretary Ash Carter has said.

They will corner the militants in their bastions of Raqqa, in Syria, and Mosul, in Iraq, he added.
But he warned this would not eliminate their violent ideology or ability to spring attacks elsewhere.
Countries have also discussed plans to stabilise areas after IS is defeated.

Obviously this is not going to go as the US and its allies are planning and hoping, but I'm glad that this suggests an exit is on the cards.

These are misleading numbers plus should be explained to get a clearer picture. Those first numbers (from Turkey to Egypt) are number of total arrivals, as result of the war in Syria (actually they're probably larger, because not nearly every refugee over there is registered). They are not the number of asylum applications or people who will be let to permanently stay. For instance, Saudi Arabia is offering resettlement only to Syrians who already have family in the country. In fact, according to Amnesty International, Saudi Arabia is not offering any resettlement strictly to refugees, because people who go to another country to their family members are classified as migrants, not refugees. Of Turkey there was a report that they're planning to offer permanent residency only to the most skilled and wealthy refugees that will help the Turkish society the most.

In short, there are millions of refugees in that region, but their treatment varies from country to country, with a lot of pick-and-choosing going on about who gets to actually stay and have a future in their "refugee country", pick-and-choosing that is not based on need.

As for your European numbers, they are not the number of total arrivals. In Germany's case it might actually be, I'm not sure. But for instance, Finland is currently hosting between 30k - 40k Middle Eastern refugees, but only 1,661 of them show up in the corresponding statistic from which your Belgium, France and UK numbers are (the latest of that statistic is found here: http://data.unhcr.org/syrianrefugees/asylum.php ). The reason is that Finland currently has almost 30k Iraqi refugees and the numbers you posted are only Syrian ones (except maybe for Germany). I haven't got all the refugee numbers for France, Belgium or the UK, but I doubt Finland has taken three times as many refugees as France, for example. Ps. Not all of those 30k - 40k refugees in Finland will receive a permanent residency permit and some have already been returned. But the bottom line for me is that the Middle East nations could do more to resettle the refugees and give them hope of a decent future. And what ever the case, Europe should not take more of them in in the current circumstances, in my opinion.

yh only Syrian numbers doesn't all include all Iraqi numbers or any Afghan numbers.

I know people like to say 'The World has gone to shit' a lot but right now, it's pretty fair to say that the World has gone to shit.

Police hunting two men who tried to abduct an RAF serviceman at knifepoint say they have not ruled out terrorism as a motive.




They also say there may have been an element of "pre-planning" in the attack near RAF Marham in Norfolk.

The suspects, both of Middle Eastern appearance, approached the man at around 3pm on Wednesday while he was out jogging about a mile from the base.
