Props to Great Britain and France for releasing their overseas mandates and territories in the middle of the Cold War, paving the way for all these dictatorships.
I'd rather say they "realesed" their mandate, looked if the man taking power was more concerned by their interest or to those of its people. Then cut off his head (lumumba,sankara,etc) if it was the second case. So more like just putting dictatorship in their ex-colonies.

I usually strongly disagree with Obeyrn post but his first two post made lot of sense. There's clearly a big hypocrisy in Sunni muslim, cliaming to big one big brotherhood when it's about giving weapons but are no where to be found when it's about welcoming refugee, pointing out that is not being islamophob.

What I'm trying to say is, most people had some kind of contact with God and religion. They have different views and expectations. But I strongly believe that only mentally unstable people are true devotees to ideas projected by religious leaders. Which is rather scary, because there is a ton of them.

I wouldn't necessarily say mentally unstable. In some cases it can be lack of education for example. Which is why local mosque leaders, priests ect can have so much power and sway because what they say goes and people don't know enough to question it. Even in societies that are educated but where there is a lack of critical thinking and following the flow of the community is the norm it can be a problem for this.

There is hypocrisy in every religion and often made more so once various sects appear and religions become more and more fragmented. Sunni for example is a very broad umbrella but within that there are whole spectrums of groups that teach different things to each other. With your refugee statement there are also counter examples. For instance Sunni Muslims give more charity than any other group in the world. Largely because it's written into the religion that you have to give a portion of your standing wealth to charity each year.

I'm not an atheist, I'm closer to deist or agnostic than anything, but I've already pointed that out repeatedly.

That is the religion version of " i dont have autism, i got aspergers syndrome."

Come on, we all know what it means.

I don't think you realize the ammount of terrorist attacks that are stopped on a yearly basis, we only ever hear the ones that manage to set it in motion.

Do you really believe that?

By the way, even considering that it is obviously true Sunni Muslims are far more likely than basically anyone in western countries to participate in an attack, so are people without life insurance. And that has been used to find actual terrorists in bank records. The principle of asylum is supposedly that you have to shelter people that cannot go back to their country because it is too dangerous. I don't see how it's fair to accept and reject immigrants based on religion.

The moral of the story is 'be careful what you wish for' when you beg for independence and expect running a country to be easy.

No take-backsies

Wish we could've seen Scotland's attempt at running its own affairs, building an economy, feeding it's people (including the more remote isles), continuing to provide free university tuition, healthcare, providing pensions... Or failing to do all of the above. It'd suck to live next to a 3rd world country though... On the plus side it's fairly sparsely populated, the migrants jumping Hadrian's wall wouldnt have been an overwhelming number.

This is why I always donate a few bucks to the IRA every year   :lol:

I quess the general fear is that muslims are much more likely to be intolerant than anyone. That our own lifestyles are forced to change to compensate for their lack of tolerance. Doubt its the terroristic attacks everybody fears, when it comes to middle-eastern immigrants. Its the fear of becoming Sweden. Where they straight up force their own people to shut up about anything that sounds even remotely bad about the subject.

 Getting stoned to death for farting in public isn't tolerant?
