| > I am aware of it, but it's not worth the risk to let any of them in. You'd rather see 10's or 100's of thousands dead than risk a few incidents? > That's supposing law enforcement can stop 100% of terror attacks before they have happened. There are so few of them that even with broken LE the dangers from terrorism are smaller than from smoking. > Isn't it better to just remove the root of the issue? Yes, but it is too late for that as you already wrote. > No, not millions of them, but just a few ones are enough to wreak havoc. Nah, only when viewed through the magnifying lens of the media. Traffic and obesity kill vastly more people than terrorists ever can. > And yes, they are going to attack us, first because they are bitter we made them lose everything, and second because there's definitely not enough butter for all of them (in my own country, there isn't even enough butter for us natives!). Where do you live then? > Turkey will covertly support ISIS as long as ISIS keeps killing Kurds, and they will because, let's be honest, all Muslims hate Kurds. Do you realize the majority of Kurds are Muslims? Are you suggesting they hate themselves? > And yes, ISIS lone fighters will keep terrorising us. It just happened yesterday. You let it happen to you, yesterday. Statistically speaking I feel no less safe than I did on Thursday last week, and if I see something that hints at an attack in progress I'll act. Until then life goes on. > I don't believe for a second two cultures that are fundamentally so different will ever manage to work together for one specific goal, let alone create something viable in the long term. It's already working. What do you suggest? Isolationism? Close all borders to refugees? Barbed wire borders and soldiers with orders to shoot if the refugees should approach the border? Are you willing to go and stand there to pull the trigger? |
