Of the 406,000 Syrian refugees given protection in Europe in 2016, almost 300,000 were offered sanctuary in Germany, new figures show.
The figures released by Eurostat on Wednesday display in clear terms how a few countries have shared the majority of the burden in taking in refugees from war-torn Syria.
While Germany took in 295,000 of the 406,000 Syrians who were granted asylum in the EU during 2016, major economies such as France and and Great Britain failed to offer protection to more than a few thousand.
The UK offered protection to 1,850 Syrians, 160 times less than Germany.
Sweden was the country which bore the second largest share of the burden, taking in 44,905 Syrians.
Germany also offered asylum or subsidiary protection to three quarters of the 66,000 Iraqis who were offered protection during this time in the EU, and to around 60 percent of all Afghans. …

If Germany ran over to a cliff and jumped off it, would the rest of EU member nations be expected to follow....
According to the MSM, YES
Germany took in 160 times more Syrian refugees in 2016 than UK

Fools
They should re-phrase the title to: ‘Germany 160 times more stupid than UK’...
Almost 300,000 in one year into Germany. Suicidal madness. Yet most Germans hate Trump and think he’s the threat to world. Freaking unbelievable.
I guess more Germans need to be plowed down by Islamics driving trucks before they wake up from their stupor.
Germany has always shown a penchant for self destruction. They keep trying and trying. This time they’ll likely succeed.
In my sternest mother voice “if your friends jumped off a bridge does that mean you have to?”
Nobody ever said the Germans were smart.
I’m going to get flak for this, but...
This is a war by the west (US/England) against Germany. The real threat to the current power structure is a united Germany and Russia. Quigley’s “Tragedy and Hope” and several others have articulated this. Someone is filling these ‘immigrants’ bank accounts on a weekly or monthly basis, and its not just Soros.
Translation:
Not Fair! Other countries are not as stupid as we are!!
Interesting take. Who IS filling those accounts? The Germans somehow manage to be among smartest and dumbest humans simultaneously.
Germany was 160 times more stupid in 2016 than UK.
Ja. Iditoen.
The leadership is trying to prove that they’re no longer anti-Semitic. But the Nazis didn’t hate Arabs—they hated Jews.
Not much of a history of great civilizational decisions. The Brits on the other hand...
The Ukrainean coup and the growth of ISIS was all about who gets to run pipelines to Europe.
The Western deep state that destabilised Syria and Ukraine did it to keep control of Europe. The refugees invaders are part of that.
Merkel is evidently a wholly controlled piece on the board, betraying what ought to be her own people.
But this article shows that it may not all be treachery. There is a heavy strata of Swedish-style self-deception in the German psyche.
In all honesty, a good chunk of Germans are living in blissful ignorance, perpetrated by their own government.
Just look at the numbers, the German government “estimates” the number of Mulsims in the country by half. No wonder it’s taking so long for people to get it together.

The Germans seem to be over 160 times more stupid than those folks in the UK.
