Europe isn't factoring in at all in my plans. I'm looking more to hook up with some buddies in either the Phillipines or Australia. Good places to sit out the fun there (depending on where you are).

The Phillipines is an up and coming Islamic Asian target for a Sha'aria state.

Countries really need to start closing their borders to any form of immigration, I've long since argued that for Britain, that enough is enough. Britain has the advantage over Spain that it's an island, and therefore (hopefully) a little easier to monitor if anyone can be bothered.
Hitmans friends idea bears merit but I dare say would be quashed by the EUnichs.
It can be argued that we are to blame in some respects for this situation, it can be argued (and it is certainly of my opinion) that the Allies were to blame for World War II, by creating the situation for Hitler to rise to power....but, at the end of the day, we can sit back and hindsight until we're blue in the face (or hind) and it's not going to do a blind bit of difference. Action must be taken.

BTW: AL I love the pic!!

Another disadvantage to Spain is up and coming.

Good luck, Europe!

UPDATE: :rotfl:
Very nice. Spit on the memory of my country's greatest leader. Your ignorance is nearly as offensive as your mockery. I suppose you get some satisfaction from this of course, obviously since you choose to ignore your intellect and make shots like this. A completely fatuous reamark without any real point other than your repeatedly obvious disdain for the left. People around here make legitimate criticisms of Israel and the USA and it gets branded anti-US or anti-Israel, yet you don't hesitate to make such an obviously inflammatory remark in passing.

You really are pathetic, AL.

The Phillipines is an up and coming Islamic Asian target for a Sha'aria state.
The MILF (Moro Islamic Liberation Front) Is based mostly in the south and they're well contained on a single island. The rest of the country has to deal with communists.

I'll be right smack in the middle of the island chain....so it'll be against either commies or islamics, or neither.

Perhaps the US should do this.

Mexico's Immigration Law: Let's Try It Here at Home:
Mexico has a single, streamlined law that ensures that foreign visitors and immigrants are:
* in the country legally;
* have the means to sustain themselves economically;
* not destined to be burdens on society;
* of economic and social benefit to society;
* of good character and have no criminal records; and * contributors to the general well-being of the nation.

If appropriate, I will not hesitate. But the 2 documentaries speak for themselves.

Pray tell, dear sir, what ignorance are you referring to? That lots of Canadians adored, nay, worshipped Trudeau? Check. That he held Canada together in more ways than one? Check. But above and beyond that, to swoon at the sound of his name and ignore his hero worship of some of the brutalist regimes since WWII? Well, that sir, would appear to be your ignorance. Check.

Snore.

If the shoe fits and if justifiably so, then what exactly is your gripe?
Quote:

Some are legitimate, others are absolutely convoluted.

Who cares!

And what does his relationship with Castro have to do with my adoration for his leadership as a Canadian nationalist anyway? That was how he was brought up. By pointing out this irrelavent point of contention you are changing the focus of the discussion so that you can comfortably critcize Trudeau without actually being on topic.

That you made it obviously. Are you admitting your attempt to piss me off outside of any constructive conversational purpose?

I should hope those people around here who enjoy the community would care that someone is just trying to make fire where there is none.

Necessary clarifications:

1. Anyone who proclaims here, as you have done, that he "adores" a western leader who himself hero-worshipped the likes of Mao and Castro, should expect a response here. Otherwise, keep your adorations to yourself or at least do not assume that your sentiments are shared by the entire world.

2. My purpose was to point out the other side of what you brought up for conversation, which I'm sure many posters here were not even old enough to know or remember and for others to have forgotten or overlooked. Life is not only about you. Live with it.

3. When I said "who cares", I was responding to your insults at me.

1. His history of having an interest or friendship with Castro was not part of the discussion and as such had no material value to the topic at hand.

2. Your purpose, if as you represent it, was coloured by your own disdain for non-complimentary ideas and as such any legitimate criticism was heaved with a liberal share of something other than just academic intent. Having said that it still has nothing to do with what he was being used as an example for. George W. Bush's alleged relationship with the Saudi Royal family has nothing to do with his domestic policies on education or health care. It has a prejudicial value since its an irrelavent detail to the topic of discussion.

3. Sorry for my 4 words of insult. I'll try and keep those out of my replies in the future. I don't know why you quoted the other 13 words of legitimate criticism along with it though.

Moderators, if you feel it necessary, please cut out the relevant posts and paste them in a new "Trudeau" thread.

I found the other 13 words to be your wishful thinking. My "who cares" applied to them as well.

I believe thats in the same vein as flaming.
