As you might know, I was in a refugee camp in Lavrio in 1987. There was a steady supply of refugees from Iraq, Iran and Syria even then. Many of them Kurd resistance, convalescing of wounds. Another contingent was refugees from the Soviet block, mostly Albanians and Bulgarian Turks. It was believed that most of those attempting to enter Greece were turned back at the first police station up north; those arriving to Lavrio had the good sense of hiding all the way till they reached Athens.
Clashes with police were frequent, as were knife fights between different factions among the Middle Eastern refugees.
This, however, is an order of magnitude more severe. How did these people manage to get from the islands and the Aegean coast to the Macedonian border? It appears that Greece, aware that it cannot seal its coastline, just watched them trek northward, hoping for the outcome like this.

I expect you are right. God willing they’ll all end up in Germany!
Careful what you wish for. In a few years there would be no one left to bail you out. Again. Never mind the very un-Christian sentiment of your post.
“Careful what you wish for. In a few years there would be no one left to bail you out. Again.”
After what the Germans did to Greece in WWII, to my relatives in my maternal village, the Huns can pay for an eternity and still owe. As for bail outs, they bailed out Goldman Sacks and maybe 50 super wealthy families and thus themselves and their fellow travelers. We don’t care about them at all.
Well, good luck when all the “Hun” tourists clue in to that sentiment. No one needs to spend their money where they’re not welcome...but I suppose with all the high-tech industry Greece has that matters little...
“Well, good luck when all the Hun tourists clue in to that sentiment.”
You mean the middle aged, over weight, topless, drunken women or the loud mouthed, drunken, pot bellied, speedo wearing slobs they travel with; those spawn of the Master race?
“No one needs to spend their money where theyre not welcome.”
OK...soon enough the Mohammedans won’t let them leave the Reich anyway and somehow the Greeks will survive...likely easier than we survived their massacres 75 years ago!
Feel free to disagree but after the surge Iraq was relatively stable.
“”Very dramatic scenes.””
Very and heartbreaking to see the children. Who can look at these and not think of their own children or grandchildren? We used to live in a country where something like this wouldn’t even be thought of here but now after 2008 and 2012 - who can guarantee that we won’t see the same thing?
The US has no means to occupy or change a Muslim country; we just lost wars in two of them (Iraq & Afghanistan), and the outcome was inevitable. The last time Iraq was stable was when our former ally Saddam Hussein ruled it.
For the West to survive we need a leader that will do what needs to be done.
I can’t share the anti-German sentiment at all. The Russians, in particular, have much to learn from Germany and much to admire in her courageous people.
To defeat Islam requires an effort along the lines of WWII - and I don’t see that happening when even Bush II called Islam a “religion of peace”. FDR never referred to Shintoism as such...
I agree.
And that is?
I proposed a serious war plan right here prior to Bush's address to Congress on September 16, 2001. That plan entailed raising an 80-division expeditionary force and a military alliance with India, to conquer Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and Pakistan, with American military governors in Riyadh, Aden, and Islamabad after the reversion of the Punjab to India, and a fifty-year occupation paid for by oil resources reverting to their pre-1973 legal owners.
Instead, we got a Vietnam war in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Now that we are much weaker, please outline your war plan to "do what needs to be done".
Your plan would work. I was thinking of a WWII type scenario. The tdestruction of mecca and medina would make things easier.
You're kidding, right?
Who's terrorist then?
They will destroy NYC, DC, Tel Aviv, London, Paris if and when they have the means.
If you fight by rules and they don't be prepared to lose.
Your sons will be beheaded, your wives and daughters will be slaves.
Huh, the question was who is terrorist in your scenario, not why you would want “religious symbolism ... destroyed”.
If fighting a war to win, to survive, and not doing it by your rules while the enemy abides by no rules makes me a terrorist then so be it.
It does make you a terrorist, but it does not help winning anything.
