Europe’s Syrians shaken by debate over repatriation to their war-ravaged homeland

For many Syrian refugees in Europe, joy at the fall of Assad has been tempered by immediate calls for them to go home.

They didn't even get a week to celebrate before ugly reality came for them.

The leader of the Zionist pro-Israel party, The Sweden Democrats, said, literally on the same day it was officially announced that Assad had been overthrown, that he wants to revoke permanent residence permit of Syrians in Sweden. He said it was a good opportunity to do it now.

Keep the Syrians in Europe, please.

Haha I love this. The real European colors are immediately showing once they have a reason to get rid of the immigrants they don't want and they no longer are required to virtue signal.

To be fair, AQ took over Syria, so it may be a little bit premature to think Asylum conditions no longer apply.

Nothing much has changed. Most everyone who want to send them back now are the same people who wanted to send them back before, and most people who didn't want to force them back before don't want to now.

No way! These jihadis are inclusive and respect everyone's rights.

They should all be allowed to apply for permanent residence. Keep the useful ones, and send the less desirable ones back.

And you object? There is a logic to it. You need that asylum capacity for other people fleeing oppression. Want some Cubans?

Hungarians? Psssh. There's like 40 groups that have been around for less time in Europe than the Magyars.

Murder: ”And you object?”

Yes, it’s way too early to return to Syria. There are much uncertainties right now. The country needs to be stabilized and safe first.

If people wants to return voluntarily, that’s fine, as long as they don’t join a terrorist group. There are laws on that. It’s a crime to travel abroad to join a terrorist group.

I think now that religious tolerance is guaranteed in Europe, pretty much the entire of the US non-native population should return home.

It's been ten years so probably a lot of those refugees have long been granted settled status or naturalised; had kids in Europe etc.

Many will return home. Might be sensible to offer incentives for voluntary return if/when its safe.

"pretty much the entire of the US non-native population should return home"

Hi my name is sebtard I don't understand the difference between people who migrated here 10 years ago and people who are the descendants immigrants 8 generations back. I am cousin with Jergtard.

"long been granted settled status or naturalised"

The same guy who argued hypothetically that the UK path to citizenship, hypothetically, was very difficult, hypothetically speaking.

Fair enough. The repatriation of Norwegian-Americans to Norway would basically double your population. And most of them are from the Trump-loving states.

If you never understood why the Israelis so adamantly oppose RoR...there you go :)

Not really.

My point was really that when you grant people settled status (especially after they have kids that are entitled to citizenship) you can't go ripping that away.

So they were never really refugees then.

Immigrants is the word.

Another lie perpetuated by the EU against the people of Europe.

If you ask me, the UHC CEO was the wrong person receiving a bullet.

Um no. How the fuck do you figure that out?

What do you actually know about refugee laws?

Seb

Fri Dec 13 10:09:22
Not all refugees will necessarily have applied or been granted settlement status; but plenty will have been, on the basis that the was at the time little foreseeable hope of it being safe to return.

It's not as simple as "Assad's gone, fuck off".

Refugee is a migratory status, yes.

If they don't get sent back, prepare for even more and angrier anti-immigrant backlash from Europeans.

Sebtard thinks that for every problem and issue that immigrations brings, there is a difference between residency and citizenship. Sebtard doesn’t understand that these issues weave into each other, because sebtard only has hypotheticals to go by. Very predictable sebtard. It’s almost as if you got set up.

Anti-establishment backlash.

I dunno. Citizenship suggests at least a proforma move towards assimilation. The qualifying tests mean a successfull citizen has learned the language and a lot about the culture, legal framework and political system.

Integration takes three generations anyway. It always has. See Minnesota for odd qwerks that can remain after a century. A US comedian made a compelling case for Beigistan on a netflix special recently. Some of that influence may not be a bad thing.

In the context of the discussion we had previously (or rather the one you barged in on) yes, there was a distinction between residency and citizenship. Residents don't get voting rights.

Nim, if you can't even keep a train of thought going across a few weeks, maybe recognise you've cognitively impaired yourself (interesting new studies on long term microdosing published a few days back) and stop trying these gotchas that turn out to be prat-falls?

"Anti-establishment backlash."

I'll have to take your word for it. From here it just looks like people angry about immigrants.
