The Refugee Crisis

Not if you're in France:

France won’t dine with Iran unless wine is served

Ahead of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani’s landmark European trip kicking off this weekend, French officials reportedly nixed plans for a formal meal in Paris with President François Hollande following a dispute over the menu. The Iranians, according to France’s RTL Radio, insisted on a wine-free meal with halal meat â€" a request based on Islamic codes that amounted to culinary sacrilege in France, a nation that puts the secular ideals of the Republic above all else.

Just kick the Iranian ambassador into a conveniently located pit.  That an insist when the French President visits Iran, they serve cracklins (fried pig skin).

Wrong meme for the image. You gotta step your net game up, homie...

As a man wearing a beard, with some non-European ancestry ... I could complain that my goatee is being micro-aggressed ;-)

Competitive propaganda?  Really?  I agree, it is too weak to defend European manhood.  Gotta have fake MI6 Muslims decapitating captives.

This is why there were riots against Catholic immigrants in the early 19th century America.  But back then we also had a political party called the "Know Nothings".  Needless to say, the need for employers to exploit starving Irish, Poles, Italians etc in factories ... turned the tide in favor of ethnics despised by Anglo-Saxons, Dutch and Old Jews.  The Jews that came early from Germany and Holland ... were quite opposed to Jews from Poland and Russia.  Those same Catholic immigrants in particular, were more likely to live in the North, and helped turn the tide for Lincoln.

Thats better :P.

Ticking Clock: European Civilization on the Brink of Extinction?

Europe is undergoing the greatest mass migration since the Second World War, US conservative political commentator and author Patrick J. Buchanan points out, posing the question whether European civilization will survive in 21th century.

Europe is unable to absorb millions of asylum seekers fleeing from war-torn regions of the Middle East and North Africa; they come from other civilizations and cultures and will change the face of Europe forever, US conservative political commentator and author Patrick J. Buchanan notes.

It will never be the same again.

Pat Buchanan is a bit of a John Bircher.  Anti-immigrant anything ... and anti-anything-not-extreme-Catholic.  So he is being consistent with his views of events in the US earlier.

But given the eventual large numbers ... Europe as it is now post WW II ... won't be around much longer.  It will be something different.  But that would probably happen anyway, given the end of N Sea oil, German intransigence, S Europe bankruptcy, Tory/UKIPing of GB etc.  Given the financial situation and Europe vs China ... there as a lot going against Europe.  China believes that only one country should export more than raw materials or food, and they are it.  And Germany and GB have both tried to tart themselves up to interest the Chinese.  The Chinese are going to be building nuclear reactors in GB!

Syria refugee crisis: U.S. opens centres to speed vetting

The Obama administration is moving to increase and accelerate the number of Syrian refugees who might be admitted into the United States by opening new screening outposts in Iraq and Lebanon, administration officials told Reuters on Friday.

The move comes after President Barack Obama pledged in September to admit an additional 10,000 Syrian refugees in 2016, torn by four years of civil war and disorder.

The U.S. State Department confirmed the plans to open a refugee settlement processing centre in Erbil, Iraq, before the end of 2015, and to resume refugee processing in Lebanon in early 2016, said spokeswoman Danna Van Brandt.

The White House would not say how many additional refugees it may take in beyond the 10,000, but two senior administration officials said they are seeking ways to increase the number.

About time too. We are getting a bit crowded here in the EU.

Good luck and good night.

It's unlikely that ISIS will send some of theirs through the wave of refugees - it would take too long before they are processed through the bureaucracy. It's much quicker and easier to do as in what happened in Paris - radicalize a few, harm them and then send them like zombies to kill as many innocents as possible.

They are probably already there. Just waiting for the 'go ahead'.

Meanwhile, one 'Lone Wolf' from Ohio
Who knows how many more are biding their time?

Those people who are demonstrating in favor of migrants should be taken at their word.

Assign to them each a dozen migrants to their homes at their own expense.
Feed them, house them, they are now your responsibility. Thank you so much.

I am sure they will be all to happy to look after the migrants.

So if you think there shoud be free healtcare then you have to provide it yourself?

No such thing as free healthcare. Or free anything. Someone has to pay for it.

Socialism isn't the real problem ... inability to take arithmetic seriously is.  I don't believe in the Europe is socialist, America is capitalist meme.  We believe in different free stuff.
