Turkey Is A Safe Country!!!!

It's because people are like sheep. If someone says that the grass is greener over there, then that's where the sheep will go. Simple.
It's ok until the native sheep complain that their grass is all gone.

Totally agree with the OP and have been saying the same (much to the disgust of others), they where being sent money from a relative in Canada as well. The father decided to board one of those rafts to go to Kos with the plan of traveling all the way to Canada, why was he putting his wife and kids at risk with this bizarre idea of getting to a country they had already been denied asylum??

Because the promise of an open door policy (in Germany) was being dangled in front of them, a hysteria has gripped these people via the internet / word of mouth. It's quite obvious why things have kicked off, if you stand back and look at it.

I thought these people were refugees fleeing for their lives scandinavian? You make it seem like the world is just various types of Holiday Camp with Turkey being Pontins and Europe being Butlins. If you aren't in immediate danger then surely that is the safe haven you have craved?

yes but in their own country (syria libya iraq etc) they dont treat themselves as humans ie sunil hate shia and vice versa

wtf are they over here for they aint going to change ask the 1400 victims in rotherham (tens of thousands elsewhere)

they aint western and they NEVER will be

try and build a church in mecca saudi arabia and you will get what i mean

230 thousand so the bbc say have said let more refugEes in but they didnt say that 55 million of us have said fkall

so we are democracy where majority rules

thats says to me WE DONT WANT ANY REFUGEES

I don't think searching for legal status, an education, lawful employment whilst being treating like a leper  as searching for a holiday camp. Life for refugees in Turkey is almost worthless compared to Europe.

the 230k who say yes can take them into their houses gardens garages etc under these terms and conditions

you are responsible for them you are their guarantor

you are liable for all costs everything that includes benefits any fines that they get any prison sentences they get you pay any nhs doctors fees you pay

basically you are their parents YOU TAKE THE ENTIRE COST

if you want to claim anything back then take up each case with the EU, THE ARAB LEAGUE,THE UN, not fkin us as we want fkall to do with them as they HATE US

the arab world has 1 billion wtf cant they sort it they always say that muslims are all brothers

lets dump the lot on their doorstep

if they mistreat them dont welcome them etc

then isolate them ie then entire west usa europe russia china india end all trade in and out

I'm not sure which part you don't understand or what you're misunderstanding but it's simple stuff, they prefer 'certain' European countries if you like because they are better off in welcoming countries like Sweden or Germany than in Turkey  where as previously said, it's much harder to gain refugee status and a better life for their family, Turkey is merely a transit nation. My main point was answering the question as to why they leave Turkey, why they are leaving countries like Hungry and Austria is a different one but not far off the same reasons, they are not welcome there either.

But that will go under the radar zilal. Once they are in. They are in. Once they are in. The clarion call goes out to the others:

And why do you want to go to Britain?

I have family and friends there.

Well in you come then. Next.

zilzal1 I brought that up months ago. Once one country gives any of them full validity as EU citizens, it doesn't matter where they go in the short term, they'll go where they want.

Like all of you I've a lot of sympathy for the normal people caught up in a nightmare but I fear this is going to end very badly once the self righteousness rubbish wears off, and the self righteousness rubbish is off the scale now.

We should stop fighting assad, he's a dictator but it's quite obvious letting these countries collapse into weak tribal warfare isn't the answer. Thats why all the bordering countries are a mess. Get rid of him and what, we've another failed state, a Libya Mk I and IS just move in? So, get a ceasefire in Syria which just seems to be a war of attrition, then we stop p1ssing around and deal with the murdering nutcases, that's dragged on far too long.

All this ignoring the actual source of the problems is frustrating.

It's like we're in 1939 and wringing our hands about Poland but not even discussing how to deal with Hitler.
