Calais Immigrant Squatter 'Jungle' Bulldozed

[Amadeus85]

Greetings and peace be with you Amadeus85;


At some point we shall all have to stand before God, how can I justify my thoughts and actions, when it comes to the poor and the oppressed?

Should I be more worried about the British and French, or should I be more worried about standing before God?

And Jesus said, what you do the least of these brothers of mine, so you do unto me.

In the spirit of paying for justice for the poor and oppressed.

So a follower of Christ should invite millions of immigrants to his country and in effect change the cultural, religious structure of this country, until the followers of Christ become egzotic minority. What about our commitment to the unchagable idea of christian state, eternal order of the popes. Especially that You are a catholic as i remember.

Greetings and peace be with you Blackpool;

Britain has spent billions of pounds fighting a war in Afghanistan and killing people, we should be able to spend a few million pounds helping people.

Actually, the UK has already spent close to a billion on development aid to Afghanistan since 2001.

http://www.dfid.gov.uk/Where-we-work/Asia-South/Afghanistan/Major-Challenges/
Having spent over £600 million since 2001, DFID spent £143 million there in 2008–09, making the UK the second largest bilateral donor after the US. We will provide a further £510 million in development assistance from 2009–10 to 2012–13, which will bring the amount pledged or spent by all UK government departments on aid to Afghanistan since 2001 to more than £1.65 billion.

To me I believe it's a financial thing. In Britain refugees are given cash, a house, a job, a car etc. The government is too soft.

Really ?.
I shall register myself as a refugee and go to Britain.

Just kidding. I never want to leave my country. But those Afghans are not kidding. They have heard many good stories from earlier immigrants who live in Britain and that makes them want to go there. I don't know much about immigrants in Britain, but I think they are not living in refugees camp like Palestinian in Lebanon.

You are not wrong, they chose Britain because financial thing. They want to have a better life, and actually this is normal.

But, yes, I can understand if too many immigrants becomes a problem for British.

I think you need to look at the issue in comparative terms. You can't invade a country, massacre its people, ovethrow the government (albeit an unelected one with an uncompromising policy towards the West), use indiscriminate bombing against civilians to try and pacify an insurgency and then, when faced with legitimate criticism, retort with "but they've spent close to £1 billion on development."

With regard to the money that has been expended on development, all that money is essentially misappropriated by the very same warlords installed by the occupation forces because they are the only ones who exhibit evidently enough docility towards Western strategic goals.

This notion of somehow Afghanistan being a benevolent crusade, one that has at its core the purportedly sacred duty of bringing Al Qa'ida to accout for 9/11 has been discredited about as much as if not more than Iraq.

Osama bin Laden himself asserted in a recent audio release to the US public, that the fundamental cause of confrontation between the West and the Muslim world is the unjustifiable support extended to the zionist government in its continued occupation of Palestine. Al Qaid'a is calling for total disengagement from the task of propping up israel to the point where it is now brimming with enough nuclear warheads to spark an arms race.
