SID, Serbia — They arrived in an unceasing stream, 10,000 a day at the height, as many as a million migrants heading for Europe this year, pushing infants in strollers and elderly parents in wheelchairs, carrying children on their shoulders and life savings in their socks. They came in search of a new life, but in many ways they were the heralds of a new age.
There are more displaced people and refugees now than at any other time in recorded history — 60 million in all — and they are on the march in numbers not seen since World War II. They are coming not just from Syria, but from an array of countries and regions, including Afghanistan, Iraq, Gaza, even Haiti, as well as any of a dozen or so nations in sub-Saharan and North Africa. They are unofficial ambassadors of failed states, unending wars, intractable conflicts.

Angela Merkel has so screwed Europe. I wonder if she even realizes what she has done?
To: W.
what a lie - these mooselimbs are not in search of a new life. They are just looking for a new location for their current lifestyle. ie, invaders
People who truly immigrate are looking to leave behind their old life and adapt and assimilate the culture and lifestyle of the country they are joining.
These mooselimbs are not joining any of these countries, they are aiming to take them over and transform them to the hellholes they left.

I keeping picturing a couple million Germans in the 1930s moving East, you know, to avoid the rough conditions of the Third Reich. Those dispirited Germans would just wander eastward, stopping for shelter in places like Smolensk, and Stalingrad, and Kursk.
And then one day the Luftwaffe might fly overhead and drop pallets of rifles -- and a Nazi army of 2 million people would be 500 miles inside the borders of the USSR.
Panzer divisions would reach them and reinforce them in very little time.
Of course, Stalin would never have allowed it.

Yes, they chickensh
|tted out to avoid fixing their homeland, and have become parasites seeking benefits, but only the best will do, you understand, for the parasites are self-important muslims and will settle for only the finest!
For being uneducated, unwashed violent savages, they hold a mighty high opinion of themselves...
