[quote=bewildering][quote=FlyerInHi]I’ve been following news from Europe and, overall, the way Germany is welcoming 800,000 to 1 million refugees this year is in such contrast to the way we dealt with the few thousands of women and children who came here last year. Shame on us!
Especially lame of both the UK and the USA. The UK and USA created the fiasco in Iraq, Syria and Libya. Germany opposed both the Iraq war, and the bombing in Libya. Now the Germany are taking in the resulting refugees while the UK and USA are doing nothing. The situation is diabolically unfair on the German taxpayers.
If I were the Germans I would sue the USA and UK for money to cover taking in the refugees.[/quote]
I don’t think it’s fair to lump UK with the U.S. together. Cameron has just committed over $100+ million in aides and accepted thousands more refugees. Meanwhile, in the U.S., we need to focus on cutting government spending to reduce the deficit. Offering foreign aides to these people are not as important as reduce the government spending…
