Polish PM draws link between London attack and EU migrant policy

Poland's prime minister drew a link on Thursday between an attack in London targeting the British parliament and the European Union's migrant policy, saying the assault vindicated Warsaw's refusal to take in refugees.

Poland's right-wing, eurosceptic government has refused to accept any of the 6,200 migrants allocated to it under the European Union's quota scheme that is designed to share the burden of taking in the large numbers of migrants and refugees who have come to Europe over the past two years.

"I hear in Europe very often: do not connect the migration policy with terrorism, but it is impossible not to connect them," Polish Prime Minister Beata Szydlo told private broadcaster TVN24.

EU's migration commissioner, Dimitris Avramopoulos, on a visit to Warsaw, warned member states against failing to host refugees to help alleviate pressure on frontline states bearing the brunt of arrivals across the Mediterranean.

"The commissioner should concentrate on what to do to avoid such acts as yesterday in London ... Poland will not succumb to blackmail such as that expressed by the commissioner," Szydlo said.

"The commissioner is coming to Warsaw and trying to tell us: you have to do what the EU decided, you have to take these migrants .... Two days later another terrorist attack in London occurs," she said.

I was going to tell you a story about a hardcore pole I knew when I was in the military, basic training to be more specific. I saw your tag name and thought twice.

We had a lot of “Ski’s” and they were all just like everyone else except for this one guy. He was a nice guy and I liked him a lot but he was what I considered a hardcore pole.

He loved to play the accordion, you couldn’t convince him that pro wrestling was choreographed. But most of all we couldn’t stop him from peeing in the shower drain not a foot away from your bare feet. It was just gross.

From one Okie to just another, that’s funny. The Poles are good, down to earth people, that’s for sure. So are the Okies.

There is ZERO link between the London attack and the EU migrant policy

Khalid Masood was born in England, in Kent. His birth name was Adrian Russell Elms

He converted to Islam -- note whistleduck, he was not moslem by birth...

You are wrong.

As Mao said: The guerrilla must move amongst the people as a fish swims in the sea

The "sea" of Muslim mosques, radical preachers, cultural acceptance, muslim dominated areas, support networks, etc, etc... has been expanding very rapidly in recent years. There is more and more sea in which these fish can swim and spawn.

Ok. Agreed. Mr Elms was not Moslem by birth. Could it be that moslem influence in his life resulted in his criminal activity, or was that Christian inspired? Or he was just predisposed, it was his fate.

What would be the explanation?

Moslem influence in his life started in prison — prison imams spread Islam among the criminal populace in the UK, France, India, the USA etc.
