Isn't it right to help Syria though? He is not only blamming Assad, but also Obama.
He blamed Obama for not taking out Assad. Assad isn't the problem. Taking him out now would allow ISIS to run the country, meaning everybody would want to flee. These types of groups should have never been supported in the first place.

not to worry, there's a new candidate in town:



John McAfee, founder of MacAfee antivirus many decades ago and more recently a public lunatic.

Isn't he wanted in 12 countries?

Kind of sucks to have a candidate not able to fly into Belize because he's wanted on murder charges.

I heard an interview about that. Sounds like a frame up job from the Belize government according to him at least.

But hey, what difference does it make? Clintons had people killed, so did the Bush family -- they are still able to run and be President. Who knows, maybe killing people is a prerequisite to run?

I mean the Syrian immigrants.

Still no?
do you seriously think turkey is hosting all those people on their dime? pretty sure they are making money off of it. Anyhoos, since they are, as you pointed out, immigrants and not refugees, and asylum seeker quotas are already in place in the budget, countries have more of a responsibility to service their own population or at the very least lighten their population's fiscal burden before going out trying to help others longing for a better economic outlook.

Business decisions wont necessarily correlate with the best decisions politically. In regards to Trump. I don't think he will get in.

Exactly. The frauds are economic migrants, nothing more.

Spot on! For Trump to say we need to take Syrians in when we can't even afford to properly care for veterans is simply a disgrace. If anything, the individuals in charge of providing weapons and funding to spin-off groups that eventually became ISIS should be held liable, with all those Syrians heading over to live in their fucking mansions. Trump can personally pay for them to stay at his "tower".

German media on

You are a nazi, that's what you are

German media off

*hopefully nobody notices that we don't give a fuck about anything and only want to recruit cheap workforce for Daimler so they can fire Müller and Meier because those demand more than 5eur/hour*

That's probably all Western medias.

And what's this BS about Germany importing people (mostly unskilled, probably) because of their declining birth rates to help the economy? That makes no sense at all.

Well, you could afford to take of your veterans with a proper welfare system in place, you just choose not to.
Seriously, most of those who are now arguing that we should take care of the domestic poor instead of helping foreigners are those that couldn't give two shits about the domestic poor at any other time of the year.

Agreed on the second part btw.

I also agree that the argumwnt doesn't make much sense, but the bulk of the current immigrants are actually among the most educated portion of the Syrian population, the former upper midfle class prior to this chaos of civil war & Isis. Lots of university graduates in there.

"service their own population or at the very least lighten their population's fiscal burden" doesnt say poor or taking care of them ;)
