    we hear every day about how many should be allowed into which European countries etc etc, but, what I NEVER hear is Mr Putin's view on it all.
    How many migrants are heading towards and being accepted into Russia with its endless vast empty spaces?
    Not many, I bet.

    I think we should just decide which migrants we let in by whether or not Brad and Fudge want to **** 'em and if that doesn't separate the wheat from the chaff we can just give some female a good ******* kicking.

    PM me if you've got a problem with that.

    Russia took thousands of Ukrainian migrants last year, but don't let that stop your anti Russian hatred.

    It's a valid point. Russia is much nearer to Syria than Western Europe, yet no-one has spoken about them as a possible refugee/migrant haven.

    As for Japan, last year in spite of application from thousands, they took in 6!

    Err the Russians are arming some of the people they are fleeing from. Even we have finally realised chucking weapons at nutters is a bad idea (at least until next time). The whole ISIS thing is cruelly ironic given we financed and supported them as we did the Taliban before them.

    Don't think we armed or supported ISIS at any time, we allowed them to flourish in Iraq in the vacuum created when we withdrew from Iraq leaving a weak regime in power, ISIS then went into the mess that is Syria where you've got numerous competing factions

    Both the U.S. And the UK supported anti Assad factions in Syria politically and financially. We also destabilised the country further by bombing the bejesus out of it some of the money and arms trickled through to ISIS it also created spikes of support for them

    do you think there are any British/American arms in the hands of ISIS as a result of our interference?

    The enemy of my enemy was certainly the approach of both the UK and the U.S. In the early days of the conflict as once again we failed to understand the nuances.

    We certainly supported militias opposing Assad in Syria but they weren't ISIS
