Hugary earlier this week closed their boders so the mass began flowing into Croatia. Today Croatia announced closing its borders. So the mass will now be funneled to Slovenia..but Slovenia doesn't want them either..

"....SLOVENIA SAYS NO CORRIDOR

Worried by the situation, Slovenia stopped all rail traffic on the main line from Croatia and said there was "no basis on which we could form a corridor" for migrants to pass through en route to western Europe.

Unlike Croatia, Slovenia is a member of Europe's Schengen zone of border-free travel, an important goal for refugees to reach. With around 1,000 migrants expected to enter the country in the next 24 hours, Slovenia plans to abide by EU rules by receiving asylum requests but returning illegal migrants."

It's no surprise that Europe doesn't want them. Sadly, they'd be a drain AND dilute the culture of the host country much like the Turks. And Europeans despise the Turks, especially the Germans.

Btw, this is all further evidence of what a shit hole the Middle East is. Muslim leaders have to understand that their draconian way of life is failing. What good is it to lead a country if there's nobody there?

What remains to be seen is how many of these adult males (between 65-70% of these migrants-refugees) are actually refugees. They have to apply for refugee status first. Although they have to be screened for status by treaty, technically they are illegally present in the countries they have entered without "leave to stay".

Yet. Attempting to rush the border to get in and getting denied. How about, the world is showing Obama how to control their own borders?

So now Kerry says we'll take 70,000 Syrians this year and 100,000 next year. Let's see what Trump says.

Actually I think that's total refugees from everywhere-but you can bet there's a sizeable number of able bodied Syrian males of fighting age in there, "yearning to breathe free"

I would not rank the Hmong anywhere near those other pestilential groups

According to Ann "Adam's Apple" Coulter, who hates most immigrants, the Hmong are as bad as any of them.

I don't consider any of them pestilential groups, just pointing out the Minnesota is a melting pot for immigrants. And yes there are companies here that hire temporary workers from down south of the border, and have the government send them back in the fall.

Every once in a while, despite being a self-proclaimed lover of history, you really don't understand a thing about history.

All throughout time, when things got bad at home and you needed more resources, you'd simply invade your neighbor. The over population would either get killed or you'd expand your territory.

Right now, the Middle East is getting rid of the excess people. Yup, those people that the ruling families do not want to share the wealth with.

Think of it this way...if a bunch of Black people were fleeing the South because of racial violence (violence committed by the KKK), would the KKK believe that their draconian tactics were failing? :suspicious:

Given that, do you really think the families of the ruling class in the Middle East care if a million refugees leave their countries? In fact, the wealthy Arab countries are PAYING to have the refugees go elsewhere. They don't want the Syrians...heck, they hardly want their own people.

Like always, you read what you want. Is the ME not a shit hole with draconian laws?

Or did you only focus on my comment that what's the point of leading people if there's no one to lead? Of course it's about power and wealth. My comment wasn't a statement of fact, it was just a comment.

I can admit to putting it all on sharia laws, but what's the root cause of it all? Religion. ISIS isn't fighting for more water or because they have more fertile farm lands. They are fighting because of Religion.
