I Sincere Hope We Aren’t Sending Our Troops Back In To Ahghanistan

[Bobbisox1]

Why aren’t countries like Saudi,Kuwait and a lot more Arab states just sitting back and watching it all unfold again, that’s unless they want to see Sharia Law and brutal beatings carried out in football stadia ?

In The Times yesterday Rory Stewart is quoted as saying (about Afghanistan) "We are going to have to take millions of refugees - cumulatively the US & Europe. That's a big problem for the Brexiteers but they brought in on themselves"

Can someone explain to me what the UK being in or out of the EU has to do with the number of refugees there might be?

The guy is an ass!

[Jackdaw33]

I don't get him neither. For a start the US aren't going to take any refugees, even if some of them are foolhardy enough to try to cross the Atlantic in a rubber dinghy. Apart from those who aided British forces and to whom we owe a moral obligation, the rest will have to make their own way to Europe and then take their chances from there.

It seems that Canada is going to accept 20,000 or so refugees.

Good for them Sanmac although Canada is a very big country

[Jackdaw33]

Then I feel that Canada is making a rod for its own back, as the one quality which seems to be lacking in these refugees is gratitude.

Lol at 2014? I don't see any any humour involved: https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2021/08/15/we-are-committed-to-afghanistan-and-the-afghan-people-trudeau-says-as-taliban-enter-kabul-and-president-flees.html

Why did Trudeau have to drag the LGBT issue into the matter? Totally irrelevant in my opinion.

[sanmac]

Quite so, JD. Actually, Trudeau is irrelevant as far as I'm concerned...And he's actually calling for a general election during this pandemic!!

jack //Why did Trudeau have to drag the LGBT issue into the matter?//

He was the first Canadian president to visit a homo-sexual bar.
Go figure!
