Will the Muslim migrant & refugee crisis cause the EU to collapse?

Once the country the west destroyed is rebuilt and their houses rebuilt and their economy is rebuilt then yes I agree, they should be sent back. So perhaps in like 25+ years?

Yes, it's not Assad, the IS and associated groups that have destroyed Syria, it's Sweden. Mashallah, sister! Much wisdom!

How did the west destroy Syria? is this because they didnt get an Ikea?

I was using sarcasm to show the absurdity of what that member was saying.

The EU isn't going to collapse just because a few immigrants. Chill.

In my opinion western countries should feel obliged to help seeing as it is partially due to their actions that the refugees have had to flee their countries.

Exactly princessxox. NATO countries should be bending over backwards to bring refugees to the UK, Europe, USA etc. Not only that but they should also get given compensation by the government.

The Arab countries are selfish and are not taking many refugees and yes this is despicable, Islam teaches us to be compassionate to our fellow Muslims and help them when they're in need but they just ignore them, it's so sad.

However that doesn't then give a free pass to non muslim countries to also reject them when those countries are the ones responsible primarily for them being a refugee in the first place.

What about the rich Gulf states whose petrodollars are driving the conflict in Syria? Never mind the Saudi's 100,000 plumbed and air-conditioned tents that are left empty most of the year.

Trash argument. What did Sweden do to have to take in refugees? They now have the second highest rate of rape only behind Lesotho. What did Germany do to deserve a truck plowing through a Christmas Market?
But no 'muh western foreign policy'. Your argument appeals to nothing but emotion

But never mind that, how do you expect us to pay for this? We have a budget deficit whilst being taxed to the brim, poor social care, NHS is crumbling but you think we can fork out more cash to spend on housing, welfare etc, we can't even help our own.

Your level of cognitive bias is very evident and astounding

It's true Russia should now have the responsibility to take on and provide for the victims of their actions, just as the UK, USA, EU etc should too

IS was born from the Iraq war

It's despicable that the Muslim countries do not take in many refugees, it's sickening. However this doesn't mean the west shouldn't help them when they contributed to this mess.




Maybe if we didn't spend £50+ billion on "defence" every year we'd have some money for other more important things like the NHS and housing.

The IS predates the Iraq war and did not come to prominence until 2014, well after the start of the Syrian civil war and the departure of coalition forces from Iraq. Even if that weren't the case, we know that the IS wasn't the cause of the Syrian civil war - they merely profited from the turmoil created by Assad and those who took up arms to remove him. So even if it was the case, as you believe, that the IS is the biological child of 'the west', it still would not follow that 'the west' is to blame for the Syrian conflict.

There's no non-foolish way to pin the conflict in Syria on 'the west', least of all countries like Sweden, Germany, and France, who had nothing to do with Iraq (so the argument fails even if we take your position that the invasion of Iraq means that the IS is off the hook and everything they've done is really someone else's responsibility). Though I've no doubt you'll continue to try because, as I've said many times before, your interest is not in what is true, but in how 'the west', of which you take a dim view, might be presented in the worst possible light.

I think you have mistaken what I meant. I know the Syrian conflict is not the fault of the west, that is caused by the sewer rat bashar but IS controls a large area of Syria and if IS so IS are also to blame for displacing millions.

However they have a terrible habit of starting wars in the middle east which I strongly disagree with.

Do you think skilled immigrants should also be blocked from moving to the UK?
