Thread: Refugees from ex Soviet Countries, to Western Europe

The fact that she had 3 kids did not make anyone question her story about being lesbian.

that's straight up crookery i can't understand why authorities of european countries buy into the BS stories the illegal immigrants feed them with
is it because they're muslims and these have special privileges? are there christians granted asylum on religious grounds fleeing from traditionally christian countries?
another queston is why Sweden, why not Turkey or Albania or any Middle East Arabic country?
oh i see why, Swedish language is easier learned or they know it already

It's a mix of guilt for not helping the Jews during the war and modern political correctness. Also from a cynical perspective it helps the problem with women in Western European countries not having quite enough children.

But it's not really the "right" people that come. Somalis for example don't exactly fit in well in society in Sweden. They can't read or write and the women won't leave the house without wrapping themselves in a small brown tent.... The idea in Sweden is that everyone should work, including women. But there are no jobs suited for people who can't read and dress in impractical clothes.

At the moment, the biggest refugee groups are Afganistan and Iraq, so it would help massively if nobody started wars there that these people have to flee and get entitled according to the Geneva convention to stay in whatever country they first seek asylum in.
