Do you know how many Germans used to live in Russia? A lot of Russian education and science is of German origins. Germans and Russians are friends. Germans and Americans are not.
sigh.. Americans and Germans are friends.

There was a lot of cruelty on both sides. My grandfather was in a German POW camp too. But he never took part in all the atrocities the Soviets did in occupied Germany. And I am really sorry for everything that happened back then.

The Nazis killed an estimated 10 million Russian civilians. The Red Army wanted revenge.

Yes absolutely. Do you think all these muslims from all over the muslim world just coincidental independently decided to head for Europe at the same time? That's preposterous.

By the way, half of the refugees in the world are women and children. Of those coming to Europe in 2014 70% were male (children included).
Let me ask you this, would you put your wife and children at risk or would you take it upon yourself to make a dangerous journey?
So you're a "refugee" supposedly fleeing for your life and safety, but you leave your wife and children at home instead of leading them to safety?

You can't possibly believe the ridiculous things you're typing.

The government in DC is anti-white, just as it appears Merkel's regime is. Whites of German descent are the largest group of whites in the US, at least 50 million, almost twice as many as of English descent. Germans started to come to America just a few years after the English first settlement in the early 1600s, and most of them descending from the early American settlers.

Why? Its their ideological goal to create the "perfect" islamic state, islamic paradise on earth and every person fleeing this "paradise" is a slap in the face of this concept and shows that they have failed. That is why ISIS is wholeheartedly against the refugees fleeing syria. Millions of people fleeing them is eating away at the core of their propaganda and self perception. It causes a huge credibility problem for them.
They steadily call for all muslims to come to syria, not to leave it. If they want to send terrorists to europe they could easily fly them in or rely on terror cells which are already here. They dont need to send ragged people by foot thousands of miles to do all that. It doesnt make sense no matter from which angle you look at it.

By all means, ISIS is discouraging people from fleeing and is not sending them.
Thanks for the clarification.

May I ask; what, by their definition, is the "perfect" Islamic state? Would it be a small part of the middle east, or the entire world? We both know what the answer is.


<B> Think about that. They are wreaking absolute havoc on all the people who live there, and threatening them if they leave?

How in the hell does that even make sense to you or anyone else? You honestly believe they want people to stay and be murdered? To any normal person they have no credibility, so you must assume they do not want "normal people". The people they want are joining from the four corners anyway. They are exchanging "normal people" for insane blood thirsty extremists.

Your naïve logic defies logic.

Tell me, are you pro ISIS?

Nearly 30% of college students believe the Revolutionary War freed the slaves.

That tells me everything I need to know about how public schools have abandoned children, and teach to the tests now.
