Dalai lama to migrants: ‘europe belongs to the europeans’

truthatallcost said:
A majority of people living the Middle East a Maghreb DON'T want their societies to resemble those of the West. How hard is this to understand? They rebel against personal freedoms for women, religious minorities, LGBT, etc, and generally want to keep life as it's been for centuries. So when these people are ushered into Europe, the cultural shock is too great, which drives some further into religious extremism or just blatant disregard for their host country.

Which ignores the fact that the vast majority of immigrants from the Middle East--- and elsewhere, for that matter---has successful transitioned to life in the West. For people who you think "can't handle freedom" they are doing fairly well for themselves here in America, for instance.

How about the plethora of 'Please Do Not Rape the Local Women' courses that Europe was forced to invent, in order to prevent sexual abuse?

Norway, Denmark, Germany-
"Many refugees come from cultures that are not gender equal and where women are the property of men,” Mr. Isdal said. “We have to help them adapt to their new culture."

Or the issue of social programs being utilized by non-EU migrants-

"Non-EU migrants continue to make up a disproportionate number of welfare recipients. 1.6 million of the 5.9 million welfare recipients from November 2016 to October 2017 were non-EU migrants. That figure was up from 1.36 million in the previous 12-month period."

Hate to break it to you bud, but there were plenty of rapes long before a single person from the Middle East came to Europe. I guess Europeans just candle handle freedom huh :roll:

Gee, what a surprise, the people fleeing from active war zones need help to get themselves set back up.

Your arguments are very weak bud.

His comments may also reflect his antipathy toward China, which has flooded Tibet with Chinese immigrants to dilute the power and aspirations of the native people.

Yes, good insight.

I join others in hoping that someday Tibet will be an independent country.

This may occur in two ways:

1. China becomes a democratic nation and withdraws from Tibet.

2. China falls into chaos (as it has many times in history), and Tibet simply declares its independence.
