I wonder will you acknowledge you got this wrong or you just going to move the goal post?
"Funny stuff, StarOf course Turkey takes in huge migrant numbers. Did you just discover that? They're the bottleneck.
They same is true for other countries where geography dictates the settling point of destitute refugees.
However, take Saudi, Pakistan and Iran. Countries where Middle Eastern refugees have to travel a relatively similar distance to what would be needed to travel to Europe. Now show us those figures. "

I didn't say you were defending Muslim states. What you were saying is that the majority of Muslims are peaceful and not extremist.
You where the one who brought up Afghanistan and Pakistan. The conversation so far has been about Muslim migrants and refugees living in Western countries.
I was pointing out to you that the majority of muslims, in muslim countries and eleshwere, hold ideals and beliefs that are extreme.
That fact that you think people with an overriding extreme religious view will come to your country and obey the law of the country is actually hilarious.
Yet about 70,000 Muslims live here in Ireland and have done exactly that. Know the number of Islamist extremist attacks in Ireland...its zero. Yes totally hilarious.
"I know it's a long way from your homogenous village on mud island, but have look at what has occurred in countries where muslims arrived in large enough numbers and recruited enough followers for the governments and security forces to be overwhelmed. The muslims violently took over, without fail. It's happening in Africa as we speak, bud. Read about Mozambique if you'd like just one current example.
Now go and read about all the other times this has happened in Africa and elsewhere. A lot of dead people and indeed a metric shit ton of refugees are the consistent result of Muslims out numbering a local population. "
Perhaps you should do what your asking me to do and actually look at whats happening in Africa and places like Mozambique and see its in no way comparable to places like the UK and Europe.
Poor attempt at trolling and derailment of the topic with the mud island comment by the way.
"There are many irreparably destroyed, destitute and hopeless families in Africa that would take massive offence to your sarcastic boogeyman reference. They might even say you have no idea what you are talking about. "
I have nothing but absolute sympathy for anyone effected by Islamic extremism (or any other form of extremism) and I never said it wasn't an issue, but that its wrong to judge an entire community/religion by the actions of a small minority of them. I wasn't directing the boogeyman comments to African's who have suffered at Islamist extremism hands but people living in the western countries who are scared of Muslims in general. To me those on the political right in Europe love to blame someone else for their countries problems, be it Muslim migrants, immigrants in general or a foreign power like say the EU in the case of Brexit. They take a threat be it real or imaginary and constantly and subtly exaggerate it to keep the people in a state of fear, Its by maintaining this state of fear that those in power can maintain power by promising to protect the masses from it. Its a distraction to prevent people from seeing what the real issues are with a society, corruption, income inequality, poverty, homelessness etc.
Very very strange when it's on less than, 1,% that are violent and seeking subject others to their faith yet we have example after example as to that not being the case.
Why are they not thanked for the good they do?
Really, my guy?
Tell me, does your wife congratulate you each time you go out for an evening and don't cheat on her?
The nazis gave us diving charts.
In that vein, kindly call your nearest neo-nazi organization and thank them for their proud history of contribution to the human cause.
Not content with moving the goalposts now you have to invoke Godwin's Law?
Such is your fear and hatred of Muslims you just flippantly dismiss the many many thousands of lives Muslim migrants working across the health care sector in Europe have saved and made better. Says its all really. You don't have an argument to it, just fear and hate. I pity that mindset. I'll never let my out look on life be dictated by such negative emotions or allow others to manipulate me into thinking like that.
But since we are on the topic of the Nazi's.
This attitude reminds of a movie I watched a good few years back the name of which eludes me, where the Nazi's are going house to house rounding up Jews. A nazi office and two soldiers storm into the apartment of an elderly Jew. He starts rummaging through a drawer, the nazi's think he is going for a weapon. Instead he produces the Iron Cross he was awarded for bravery in World War I and says to the officer something along the lines "I served this country and this is the thanks I get for it". The officer becomes visibly ashamed, pauses for a moment then salutes the man before leaving him alone. Believe its inspired by this man.
