Where is the ‘Ummah’ now?

Neither this country nor any of our European allies have made any significant intervention in Syria’s civil war. So why should Hungarians and Slovakians, Austrians and Poles be expected to bear such a significant responsibility for this?

„I have just returned from a trip abroad to find Britain and Europe in a state of madness. I will not reflect on any connections between these events. But perhaps a reader could enlighten me as to why in recent days Britain and Europe appear to have decided that Syria’s refugees are entirely ‘our’ responsibility. Other than a generalised sense that we are all human beings, Europeans are about as far down the list of those responsible as it is possible to be.

Neither this country nor any of our European allies have made any significant intervention in Syria’s civil war. So why should Hungarians and Slovakians, Austrians and Poles be expected to bear such a significant responsibility for this?

Whenever Britain or America or Israel do have any involvement in any Islamic country we hear a very great deal about the ‘Ummah’. The OIC and the Arab League, for instance, never miss an opportunity to talk about the brotherhood and unity of the Islamic nation and how much any ‘hurt’ or offence to any part of this entity hurts and offends the whole. (...)

And while the Iranian President lectures the Hungarians and other Europeans on our ‘shortcomings’ in this regard, how many Syrians has Iran let in? How many Syrians has Saudi Arabia given Saudi citizenship to? Neither country being uninvolved in Syria’s descent into madness…”

After this in the original: "But why some Europeans are falling for the idea that it is entirely our responsibility to clear up the Arab world’s self-created mess is still a question I would value readers’ opinions on." You gotta love the comments:) "Our charitable attitude is killing us. They know how we behave and make good use of it. In spite of their desperate condition, they feel they have rights in the west. They even believe they are better than us, because they have their powerful god." "You can avoid paying for the vile BBC. Simply throw your TV out. I did it 15 years ago because I decided that I would no longer pay for the vile BBC. It was obvious many years ago that the BBC was intent on the destruction of the West. You have nothing to lose but hours and hours of mindless shows and wicked propaganda."

Perfect: "Lady Magdalene • 5 days ago The British Media (ie the BBC, Channel 4 News and Sky, quickly followed by the dead tree press) launched a campaign of emotional blackmail when the photo of Alyan Kurdi was published ..... never mind the fact that the boy, his sibling and their mother were killed because of the stupidity, selfishness and negligence of their father/husband. The section of the British population that goes into emotional incontinence at the slightest propaganda campaign run by the media, did as expected and hyperventilated all over the TV and radio .... and the PR spiv in No.10 did what we all expected and capitulated within 24 hours. Meanwhile, the only elected in Europe who is speaking any sense is Viktor Orban of Hungary and he is also attempting to implement the EU's own rules in the processing of migrants. However, as he isn't doing what Merkel has unilaterally announced is now EU policy AND has committed the ultimate crime of believing that his responsibility is to the Hungarian people (not Merkel) I expect the EU will be working out how to get him ejected from Office in the not too distant future. Welcome back to the UK and government by emotional blackmail; PR posturing and Merkel breaking the EU's rules "because she can." "
