Paris under attack

[MVP]

Is that a tabloid?

Are you really using a tabloid as proof?

Hahahahahahaha

Well it was a poll done by newspaper among Britain Muslim population. Maybe you can take those results with grain of salt, I am not sure. Numbers are concerning though.

The source is highly suspect.

How did they define "sympathy"?

What wording did they use in their questions?

Who asked the questions, The Sun? Or an independent agency?

Also it is widely reported that up to 20% of Muslims are "radical" so no real surprise.

Dude, 16% of French people sympathized with ISIS as of last year. That's ALL French, not just Muslims. 27% of their youth do so. ALL youth, not just Muslims. Europe got a problem.

I agree that Europe has a problem. no contest.

That does not change that MVP used a terrible source or that I am instantly skeptical of it.

I have a feeling that whoever was behind 9-11, the London bombings and the Madrid bombings might have also been behind the terrorist attacks in Paris. What's clear to me is that Assad may have his days numbered. Draw your own conclusions...

Canada is going to exclude single men from their Syrian refugee plan.

If most Canadians think like dalamon, then they should take on all of the Syrian refugees that the US is planned to take on. On top of that they should specifically make dalamon host Syrian men who are single.

Well right now Canada has a conservative gov. but a liberal gov. just got voted in. So this may change early next year.

Which just reminded me, is Israel taking any Syrian refugees?


Yeah just what I thought...

You would have made a better point if you had used Saudi Arabia.

I have always been a proponent of not basing our own actions on the actions of others. Just because "x" did something a certain way does not mean we should.

Would you really want them to? Seems like that would be asking for the sort of trouble that none of us need.

The reason I used Israel as an example is because they are the country that is always the most victimized in this conflict. So I find it kind of ironic that they would want to antagonize the Muslim population evermore by not allowing Syrian civilians to escape from the tragedy of war. But sure add Saudi Arabia to the equation if you wish, it doesn't take anything from my original question.
