Pakistan and Turkey hold the most refugees in the world . Your argument is now destroyed.


Finally someone said it! Thankyou! I said the exact same thing! Most people just come to such forums pretending to have really strong opinions on things but in reality they don't even have their facts sorted!

why 'even muslims'? why cant islamic countries view ppl as human beings instead of their faiths?


I can't speak for Saudi Arabia. Like I said, I'm disgusted that they refuse to do this, even to people of their own religion.


I included faith in to this to counter people on this thread that said Muslim countries only accept "their own".

That is less because of compassion, more because of an evolutionary survival mechanism which induces feelings of caring for other human beings, but more for our own self-interest.


Doesn't sound so selfish to me:

So what you're saying is you're less evolved? OK?

I was not referring to the terrorists I was talking about Muslims who are being killed by Israel, Uk and the USA.

What's your point? :h:

It's dangerous to call Muslims terrorists.


Right?

It's dangerous to call the Muslims in Syria and Iraq terrorists? The Muslims who are raping children and women and beheading innocent people? :eyeball:

You really think the refugees fleeing from Syria are terrorists who rape children and women?

First off, Islam forbids rape of women and children but that's a different topic.

It's dangerous to label Muslims terrorist. Do not generalise the majority because of a minority.

or partying on French beaches with their 1000 person entourage *cough* King Salman.
I don't see the rich arab counties doing it considering they won't even take in muslims. It'll probably be the secular countires like India.

Edit: I think turkey, Lebanon and Jordan would also take people.

What do you think?

To be honest, I've never seen minorities do much for any other group then their own. Whether it's complaining about issues or encouraging developments to improve others.

Their culture is very much different to Western culture on values, tolerance and acceptance. They have more of a tribal focus and view and even often defend someone of their culture if they're wrong, just because they're the same colour. I don't find them generous, giving cultures at all. In all honesty all they do is make demands in my eyes and literally have no interest in giving anything back.

Would all the UK Muslims as well be urging their beloved Pakistan, Bangaldesh etc, to take in migrants do you think?


this is nonsense India has a long history of taking in refugees: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refugees_in_India

Also, most of the Syrian refugees are being taken in by Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan.

I wasn't saying Muslims are terrorists, I was saying those Muslims were terrorists.

Obviously saying Muslims are terrorists as a standalone statement is dumb

Well religion is a massive factor so I think it's important to say

Rephrase that. You're contradicting yourself.

There are thousands of reasons to dislike Arab leaders but drinking and gambling are not in the top hundred.
Well given that the dominant religion in Turkey, the nation that has taken several orders of magnitude more than we've begrudgingly taken in, is Islam we certainly can't discount the possibility that they would.
