Has Putin Got A Point?

Please no simple 'YES' or 'No' answers, or criticisms of Putin, please stick to the the point in question.

Of course he has a point.

All this 'pot calling the kettle black' sort of thing is just white noise.

You can't ignore what has been said just because you don't like the messenger. Maybe he should just pass a note to someone else and they say it. That way someone might actually sit up and do something about it.

Society is losing cohesion ever so slightly all the time because of some aspects of what is seen as uncontrolled and uncontrollable migration. Gangs of migrant men assaulting women basicly because in their culture women, especially westerners, are worthless. Raping a boy because it was a sexual emergancy because he hadn't had sex in months. For goodness sake in what world is that a reason to rape a child? In what world is the excuse I didn't understand the (no doubt) screaming, struggling, distressed child was saying no to sex an excuse? NO one would have been in doubt regardless of where they are from.

That is the start of the rot setting in. How anyone can wonder why migrants are looked down on and sometimes feared need only look at the effect they have on the host nation. How lies are told by them and for them to get their foot in the door. Lies about their age, lies about their country of origin, lies about treatment at home.

I bet that once their country of origin is safe they won't go back, unless it is for a holiday and to get other 'family' here as well.

When the people of the host nation start to complain it is too late. The damage has already begun. The far right sweep in on a protest. The rest will become history.

Cassa, //All this 'pot calling the kettle black' sort of thing is just white noise. //

It is indeed. Good post.

I don't think the kettle is black :-)

[ichkeria]

Sorry what I meant was 'I don't think we're a pot'!
Too early :-)

[ichkeria]

No, right first time.
Back to bed.

You seem set on derailing my thread, just because it highlights some truths that are against your own particular agenda.

Perhaps you would care to start a thread of your own, on "Has Russia a worse record on other country intervention than the West"?

This from your favourite news sheet.

/// US airstrikes on a Syrian village have killed at least 73 civilians, a majority of them women and children ///

Russia is deliberately targeting civilians tho, that's the difference.
As for derailing, well I've seen a few threads on UKIP's woes where the discussion has in desperation turned to talk of Labour so, you know ...
