Against jihadists and ISIS...
Against refugees and Islam in general
The problem is, most of the folks scared to let in refugees see them as one in the same.
I'm amazed at the lack of empathy... especially when these same people shout that an American white male that shoots up a movie theater is an anomaly and not to blame all the good guys with guns for the loss of innocent life... but that keeps happening here.
And as you've said, we've loss a lot more American lives to the American anomalies than jihadist sneaking into the country (9-11 aside).
Maybe we should ban white males... you know, just in case 1 out of 10,000 has ill intent.
And as for the all the handout talk... well, that's just silly.
You all act like these refugees have planned this... like they are happy to lose their families, their friends, their homes, their culture all so they can sit around in a camp for 2 years while they are vetted in the slight chance they can move to a country where they are hated just to get a free phone.
Silly.
They have radicalized jihadists in France due to the oppression of muslim immigrants.
Exactly. Intolerance breeds a hate filled mind fertile for ISIS ideology... and yet, you think that's the way to move forward.
That's what fawken got us here in the first place! :roll:
Because we are involved, and have been for so long, and things are getting way out of hand, we have a responsibility to those people. Not the jihadists, fawk those guys, but to those that have innocently been caught up in this mess. We already have sent billions in aid, so have others, and that's great, but the people have to go somewhere...
We can't overcome this by giving the terrorists what they want, and that is to be afraid. Not only of them, but of anyone that comes from that region. They play a very specific game, and we have to be mindful of that. They can't hit us hard, or often, or repeatedly. All they can do is try to build their numbers over time and wear us down by making us chase them.
.
Exactly.
We are in this whether we like it or not.
Our fingerprints are all over this mess and everyone that is affected knows it. I'm not sure if you guys remember or not but we did invade Iraq, removed the tyrant in power and then said good luck... and here we are, we opened the door for this shit.
Our actions turned up the heat and created a breeding ground of desperate people ripe for ISIS indoctrination.
We have to suck it up and deal with it... or turn yet another group of innocent Muslims against us and into the arms of the radicals.
