Of course many people have reservations about the current refugee crisis in the world.
It is very unsettling that our previous lifestyles, ways of living may well be changing in a big way. There is nothing more sure than change.

It is too late to reverse what has and is happening in front of our eyes.
We can't practically 'send' anyone back to warring countries from Europe or Australia unless they are deported for criminal reasons etc.

So the only thing left to us is to try and deal with the crisis as best we can, and with as much sympathy for those innocents caught up in wars as we can.
For all the Western countries to declare war on all Muslims and/or predominantly Muslim countries won't help at all...that will just cause more unrest and even more refugees on the move.

//Its part of an agenda to destroy everyone's cultural identity and sovereignty and be ruled over by a global government.//

Why is that such a terrible thing, Armchair Critic? There's a couple of posters who share your conspiracy theories about New World Orders and Global Governments, and you always talk about it as if it is a very bad thing, but none of you explain why. What should we fear from a Global Government that we shouldn't fear from a National Government? It's just that in a lot science fiction which speculates on these matters, societies with Global Governments are generally presented as very utopian, because it is only by putting aside petty differences like colour, circumstances of birth and religion and working together in peace, harmony and universal brotherhood that the societies become sufficiently cohesive for Global Government to be feasible. What is it about people working together as a whole rather than being separated into various groups largely determined by geography that bothers you so much?

//If you can't see how a million unvited people arriving essentially by forcing themselves into Europe is not an invasion//

About 200 years ago a bunch of uninvited Europeans arrived by essentially forcing themselves into the land we now call Australia. Nobody asked them if they were willing to accept Southern values, lifestyle and languages if they wanted to live in a Southern country: they imported their values, lifestyle and language instead. Would you call that an invasion, CH? People moving from one country to another is not necessarily invasion; sometimes it is just immigration. Where would you be now if the pre-incarnation of Tony Abbott had been in charge of the Eora's immigration policy and turned back the First Fleet?

Toni,

That's a classic example of reductio ad absurdum.

Suse,

How many of our foreigners were born in Australia?

Well Is Mise, it seems to me that many posters on this forum do call Muslims foreigners if they live in Australia, even if they were born here of immigrant parents?

I was just saying that, to be fair, and to ensure we definitely don't have any anti-Aussies here in Australia, that we deport ALL foreigners. That's only fair isn't it?
Anyone who has dual citizenship, or has never obtained an Aussie passport should be the first to go, as they obviously don't value Australia enough.

Where did you say you were born Is Mise?
So you see, we should be careful what we wish for, because we never really know what will happen in the future...

Suseonline, "to ensure we definitely don't have any anti-Aussies here in Australia"

Is it recently acquired humility that causes you to hide your light under a bushel?

You have been giving Australia, Australians, Australian culture and traditions etc one hell of a shellacking on this forum for years. Or is that only your despised 'whites'(sic) and definitely, absolutely, 'white' men? Those 'whites' you obsess about are responsible for all that is bad and wrong in the world apparently and are all going to Hell in a handbasket, aren't they?

Toni, surely you cant be serious, comparing the first fleet to modern day refugee movements. For god sake, move on, its been over 200 years and i cant believe there are people still milking it for all its worth. In fact, i think those who call themselves the 'first Australians' should be thanking their lucky stars the likes of the Japanese or Indonesians didn't settle here first, as you can bet your bottom dollar one would have to resort to the likes of Google to find out what an Aboriginal was as chances are they would have wiped the entire lot out.

There are several ways of winning a war, and one way is with the economic strangulation of countries and their economies and, given most civilized economies are on tender hooks, this displacement of millions, in my view, is the start of WW3. In fact the events in Paris have shown how easily ones good will gesture can bring you unstuck.

It would appear the authorities were so overwhelmed with the mass influx of refugees that they missed the likes of the Syrian terrorists who rode the wave in. You can bet your bottom dollar this was all part of the plan, and that this was seen as a successful one at that by ISIS. So brace yourself.
