If they could put their minds towards positive things instead of deviltry they would be on their way to creating a livable modern world for themselves as many other nations are doing.

Thank you. I sent them an email but they are probably asleep assuming they are OK.

It was a year ago, my wife and I were in Vienna and we were going to go to Budapest. But the train station was shut down due to the influx of future terrorists (aka ‘refugee’), so we did not go. This was a predictable outcome of that.

You start by trying to explain it by “who benefits,” but that’s not enough, since all kinds of irrational actions have been taken by political leaders throughout the ages.

Of more importance than the mundane “who benefits” in this case, I think there is a left-wing religion of globalism and socialism that dictates that this happen.

It’s been centuries in the making, and this is just its latest manifestation.

So even though there may be perceived political advantages to left-wing parties to let this happen, I think the secular religious aspect of it is the most important driver.

I’ve also been thinking/saying that for many years as well, but nobody wants to listen. They’re gonna do what they wanna do, and they’re never gonna stop until they’re all ended permanently, with extreme prejudice.
