WSJ is a credible source, respected. I want to see how ABC, NBC, etc reports this or will the cover it up by not mentioning it in the name of "tolerance", we shall see.This is all over place though, not just a opinion driven political sites.

Please tell me you are not shocked? A five year old could see this happening. One occasion where I wish I was wrong and not gloating, its just reality, the sad reality the decades of not handling this problem has lead to.end rant.

Not "shocked" from that point of view, no, but then again it means little to nothing that some "refugee" was among the attackers.
All he did, he could have done with or without abusing the current stream of refugees.

What about those who aren't looking for trouble but legit refuge from a war-torn country? Ah I forgot... "let's just nuke them all".

If someone already hasn't said it, one Paris's terrorists (the ones who attacked Paris) is said to have entered the country via Immigration routes.

And considering that many people dislike immigrants, having a possible terrorist among them isn't very helpful to the refugees

Not all, just enough so that they decide messing with us(the west) isn't such a very good idea at all. Are there any Japanese people alive still? I think so. How do they fit in now?

All the crying about consuming too much of the earth's resources, and here we are trying to reduce the surplus population, but no.

Two birds, one stone.

That's probably the number one way to ensure WWIII gets going full tilt.

I personally love the Osprey. Heavy lift capabilities in a plane package that can do VSTOL/VTOL

The local USAF base has a flight of them and they come over from time to time, nice birds, but I still prefer the Chinook myself, and of course the dear old Huey.
I love the look of the Chinook compared to the Osprey, it can carry more too, but I guess mobility is more important then lift weight. And the Osprey can in-air refuel F-18s, too.

Slovenian army will mobilise 200 reserve members to augment the existing force at the border.
I guess it has somethign to do with the police strike that began yesterday.

Slovenia refused entry for 150 Maroccan nationals as they were deemed economic migrants, but Croatia refused them and then they were sent forward with the rest.
OK, this was retared, Croats are acting like morons (as ususal), using the path of least resistance and just sending them forward like it's not theirs problem. It is and if they just won't move their south slavic and illyrian asses then they should pay Slovenia for the problems they cause.
And 150 migrants refused for being economic ??? What the hell, the majority there are economic, send them to Zagreb.

We have one of the best police force in the world, in regard on how they deal with the population. And they are payed peanuts. Police cars have over-used tires, bad breaks and the top levels in the interior ministry buy themselves audis for ''official duties'' and expensive vacations. This strike is the third one this year.

We and Croats are like 2 spoiled seblings. Always in eachothers hair and will do everyrthing possible to piss eachother off, short of war and murder.

The most hilarious thing was, a cop that was tasked with finding him told me, is how he was in a foreign land in a foreign town and he made a bee-line to the kebab stand like he smelled the meat

It is a diplomatic crisis on the way between Denmark and Sweden because this refugee crisis last have the Swedish authorities tried to send 200 immigrant return to Denmark, but Denmark refuses outright to accept them.

Looks like Turkey is getting what it wants from the EU. Slow down the flow of refugees, keep them in Turkey, only it will cost the EU 3 Billion Euros a year to do that. Plus Turkey wants in , to become a member of the EU. Plus a few other things. Can't beat that deal with a stick,lol
