FReepers in Europe- Please Post Your Experiences With Migrant "Crisis" (Vanity)

Hello FReepers. Happy New Year!

I had the misfortune of being with some clueless friends and relatives over Christmas, many of whom have no idea what is happening in Europe. Muslim migrants are flooding in from hostile countries by the millions, and many people here do not even know about it. The MSM blackout on the issue is the main reason. Merkel and the rest of the socialists over there are allowing, and encouraging an invasion of their countries by military-age Muslim males. Brilliant. Where are all the women and children refugees??

I ask any FReepers living in Europe for their on-the-ground experiences with these poor unfortunate migrants. /s. Please let us know where you are, if this issue is affecting you personally, your dealings with these fellas, impacts on Towns/Villages, what locals are saying, etc...

I would like to show your responses to some folks back here in the states, to set them straight and to wake them up. I thank you in advance, and wish you well. God Bless you.

A little, but only because everyone’s out to get me.

They also tell me I’m apathetic, but I really don’t give a sh*t.

Merkel made a mistake by not consulting with anyone when she declared open borders for the refugees. She should have taken a limited number based on family groups with Christians at the front of the line.

Although Merkel has refused to put a limit on refugees, controls have greatly slowed more coming in.

My personal interaction with them was early last year I gave my winter coat to one at Church. Some weeks ago we gave two refugees money, raised through Church. I only gave five euros because I was broke and then walked home instead of taking the train. You can't get blood from a stone. Yo meen? (Do you know what I mean?)

An interesting book called The River War was the second published book written by Winston Churchill in 1899.

About Islam he wrote:

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries.

Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.

A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.

Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die: but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith.

It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.”

About the British attitude to war:

“..there are many people in England, and perhaps elsewhere, who seem to be unable to contemplate military operations for clear political objects, unless they can cajole themselves into the belief that their enemy are utterly and hopelessly vile. To this end the Dervishes, from the Mahdi and the Khalifa downwards, have been loaded with every variety of abuse and charged with all conceivable crimes.

This may be very comforting to philanthropic persons at home; but when an army in the field becomes imbued with the idea that the enemy are vermin who cumber the earth, instances of barbarity may easily be the outcome. This unmeasured condemnation is moreover as unjust as it is dangerous and unnecessary... We are told that the British and Egyptian armies entered Omdurman to free the people from the Khalifa's yoke. Never were rescuers more unwelcome.”

About the modern machinery of war and its effectiveness against native tribesmen:

“...the Maxim guns had also come into action. A dozen Dervishes are standing on a sandy knoll. All in a moment the dust began to jump in front of them, and then the clump of horsemen melts into a jumble on the ground, and a couple of scared survivors scurry to cover. Yet even then a few brave men come back to help their fallen comrades
