The liberal attitude towards asylum seekers in the EU was fostered largely by guilt over complicity with the Nazis during WW2.

It is no coincidence therefore, that Denmark is rightly taking a stand and restricting the flood of human polution to its borders-- of all the countries invaded by Germany during WW2, only Denmark made a concerted effort to protect and sheild its Jews, and needs no apologies.

Yes, you have it. Liberal guilt, rubbing off on bewildered citizens, who only wish to continue their lives- the "noiseless tenor of their way ". In 1939 the Nazi's allowed 900 Jews to embark on an ocean liner. It is said that their purpose was to test the willingness of other countries, to accept these tragic souls.

Canada has been lambasted, because it was alleged at Canadian big wig, said " none is too many"- when they asked for asylum here. They were turned away by other countries. Not recorded, in the many times the documentary was shown, damning the hypocracy of various countries, is one stated fact. Great Britain took off 70 passengers and gave them asylum.

It is said most were returned and eventually went to oblivion. The obvious and sensible approach ,is one that is pragmatic. Apply the situation , without regard to what happened, before most people in Europe and America were born. Your first sentence gave me my opening. Cheers

While I agree with you wholeheartedly on your main point, I would note that Serbia (more specifically, the Serb part of Yugoslavia) should be included with Denmark among nations that stepped up to the plate to protect Jews.
