Muslims have quite a few options of countries to go that have literal theocracies set up in place where they can practice their religion in "peace", and most Muslim countries either have the same language (Arabic) as an official language, or a good deal of them have learned it and speak it as a liturgical language.

Because all your bombing has completely fucked up their infrastructure.

Next stupid question?

What infrastructure? Muslim countries need terrorist dictators to stay "stable"?

Yeah, and?

What does that have to do with their infrastructure.

Also; I know that.

That's why I, and many other people, suggested diplomacy rather than starting a pointless, unwinnable, illegal and immoral war.

You reap what you sow.

Because they had the sense to say no?

If I had a choice ?.. Europe or Islamic crap-hole..Thats a easy choice..

I think they're so divided they wouldn't be very safe, due to religious or tribal differences. Just look at Iraq.

It was safer when Saddam was in charge.

So I've heard. Someone once told me that the best form of government was a dictatorship. That seemed to be the case for Iraq. And the Balkans.

Some give money to organizations that take people, so there is an incentive. It would be more cost effective to keep them there, money talks.

For whom?

Err, yeah.

We told you that 13 years ago.

Good question, the Saudi's , Kuwaiti's and a few others have enough money to look after their own , but they all hate each other.

Then a diplomatic solution to Americas desire to steal someone else's oil would have been preferable.

They actually do.

Tiny Lebanon has taken in ~1.2 million Syrian refugees. (They have a population of less than 6 million people.)

Turkey, Jordan, Irak and Egypt have taken in about another 3 million between them.

Some countries don't, like our good autocratic dictator friends Saudi Arabia.

They need to all go to DUBAI. Sht on that city with their own kind.

about 4 million have

And what exactly is wrong with them wanting to migrate?

The world has ALWAYS been about migration, the ebb and flow of humanity.

At least they are doing it peacefully...not behind a gun and labelling it Manifest Destiny.

They are. IIRC, about a quarter of the people in Lebanon are Syrian refugees. There's about 1.5 million in Jordan, a country with only about 8 million people.
Theres lots of them in Turkey too.

No offense, but it's pretty ignorant to act like other Muslims countties aren't helping these refugees. Lebanon and Jordan in particular are poor countries and have just been totally swamped with refugees.

That's sad to hear, especially considering Lebanon has a pretty sizable Christian population for a Middle Eastern country. Looks like they paid for it with the Beirut incident, though.

Lebanon was a historically Christian country

before the 90s.

It's basically France in a few years.

No. There hasn't been a census in Lebanon since before WWII, so there aren't good numbers on the breakdown of the population, but scholars believe that the Christians stopped being in the majority in the 1960s. IIRC it's currently believed to be about 40% Christian. It's that way despite being in an overwhelmingly Muslim part of the world for 1400 years or so.

Why import trouble when you can pass it on to a sucker?

Probably the same reason they've always been a day late and a dollar shot whenever a catastrophe takes place in an Islamic country. Anybody remember the Pakistani earthquake and how Muslim countries had to be shamed into giving aid? This brotherhood of Islam or Arabic brotherhood is a myth.
