In 2014, when waves of refugees began flooding into western Europe, citizens and officials alike responded with generosity and openness. Exhausted refugees spilled out of trains and buses to be met by crowds bearing gifts of clothing and food, and holding up placards that read “Welcome Refugees.”
This was a honeymoon that could not last.

It is an insightful article, although a bit misleading in one aspect. At the beginning, it leads the reader to conclude that this is basically an Afghan only problem, but midway through, almost as an aside, they mention that Afghans commit about half of these crimes. Other (muslim) immigrant groups basically commit the rest of these crimes – at dramatically higher rates than native Europeans. They are just out done by the Afghan rates. 100% of attack rapes in Sweden last year were committed by immigrants (AKA muslims).
Afghan society got hit harder and longer than just about anywhere on Earth, from the 1973 coup onward. They suffered extreme ravages under the communist Khalqis, who leaned toward the Khmer Rouge end of the political spectrum, trying to recreate humanity in the model of the imaginary “New Soviet Man”, independent of family or social connections, with all loyalty and devotion toward the abstract collective, like a bee in a hive. After the Khalqis, came the Soviet invasion, with a decade of mass casualties and mass emigration (millions) to refugee camps in Pakistan and Iran - breaking up families, tribes, civil society organizations, and leaving many boys without fathers. After the Soviets came a Mad Max period of virtually no central government, with gangs and militias roaming unchecked for many years. Then came the Taliban. Life was cheap, boys raised without fathers or discipline had nothing to lose, and were acculturated to brutality. It was like they were raised by wolves in many cases.
But other countries where the immigrants are coming from are also experiencing similar social breakdown and widespread violence. They also have been taught Islamic supremacist doctrines that non-muslim lives and property are forfeit, that Western Society is contemptible, and that they have a duty to jihad by hijra (migration/demographic conquest). Although the Afghans (on average) really are dramatically out of control, so are most of the other main immigrant groups in Europe (Syrians, Iraqis, Eritraens, and Somalis), when compared to European norms.
The stuff she says about Afghans forging documents, and lying to gain benefits is really common, but again, they are far from alone in this.
It really is a realistic article – a refreshing change.
“Well many FReepers have had plenty of time to read it since it was already posted 2 days ago.”
I have no reason to doubt you. So you are probably correct.
However, before I posted the article, I searched in the upper right corner using the Titles option. The search did not show the article as already being posted.
I just searched again, and it only shows the article being posted 1 time, by me ===>

This gets you a boatload of results. I use internal text instead of the headline because editors often dink with the headlines.
Good trick!
Now, in the 21st Century, a plague of Black Death again threatens to wipe out the native population of Europe.
The first was a bacterial disease spread by rats which carried the deadly fleas. The second is the spiritual disease spread by peoples carrying the deadly beliefs of Progressivism and Islam.
In the end, the second wave is far more toxic for the survival of Europe and her indigenous peoples.
I see that boat is loaded with with widows and three year-olds. </s>
I was talking today with a woman at a public function who said, “We have to give Europe credit. They’re taking more refugees than we are.” I was speechless. Brain dead Liberal.
I did not see any other article so I appreciate you posted this article...
UNHCR report 2016...areas and camps where they are coming from....
Europe has experienced enough Cultural Hybridisation when the Moslems took over southern Europe. See this video and you will realize that we are in for a big surprise:

"As far as an upper limit is concerned, my position is clear:... I will not accept it,".... she said, saying that numbers could be reduced by regulation and taking action to prevent the situations that cause people to flee one country for another.....placing a limit on refugees was not the way forward.
I will watch that later tonight....Europes real long term problem will be ‘Muslim” sub-sahara African populations they’re now flooding Europe with......they are easily led and accustomed to gang affiliations they’re bringing with them. ...frankly both groups are bad period .
Just checked...am familiar with Bill Warners take...as well as many others who speak about this.
IMO it’s already too late for Europe....the will to stop these invasions just is not there in the leadership ....who are making the decisions. If Merkel wins again in September, and many believe she will this won’t stand even a chance of slowing down.
