4 Million Refugees flee

1,438 Views | 21 Replies

Geneva (AFP) - More than four million Syrians have fled the civil war ravaging their country to become refugees in the surrounding region -- a million of them in the past 10 months alone, the United Nations said Thursday.
"This is the biggest refugee population from a single conflict in a generation," UN refugee chief Antonio Guterres said in a statement.
"It is a population that needs the support of the world but is instead living in dire conditions and sinking deeper into poverty," he said. The UN refugee agency said a surge in new refugee arrivals in Turkey had pushed the total number of Syrian refugees in neighbouring countries to over 4,013,000 people.

what's funny is that shithole actually has 17 million and with this civil war maybe it'll cut the population down, afterward the country gets new management.

But those are like the enemy, so why do we have to care? Half of them want to blow us up for nothing.

Millions more will flee if Daesh is allowed to advance.

Yeah, cut the population down, by increasing the population in the surrounding countries of turkey, lebanon, jordan and iraq and further causing more disruption to the local populations and their governments, hell, might expect some new management in all those countries aswell, since they clearly can't handle that influx of people.

most are heading to Lebanon and Turkey which can handle them, Iraq not so much since its still in the shitshow with ISIS who started all of this.

k sorry about "box of dicks" earlier. first time i ever heard that phrase this morning and i laughed my ass off. wanted to see how it would take as the first response in a thread. not very well. moving on.
anyway, I'm glad they're getting out of that shithole, for one thing the country sucks and two, now there's less potential for casualties, which is great.

An alien invasion might actually be the only thing that can unite all of humanity. We would put aside our differences and band together to fight the aliens out of survival for the human race.

I dunno man, I think that's a tad optimistic. Those aliens would have to been JUST weak enough for us to have a chance of us beating for humanity to unite. If they're overwhelming in terms of number, techolonogy and the like, we'd all just screw ourselves trying to get on their good sides.

As for Syria... damn man. This is the type of news those End Times people like to point to when they climb out of their bunkers.

Not really.

He's calling the country a shit hole.

Every country is, technically, a shithole. There's always that sizable part of the local/international population who hate how things are going over at wherever they're targeting. We're just cynically idealistic that way. Whilst they're saying things about the land, the state, its government and its people, they aren't bashing specific races. Do you really think Syria is filled with citizens of only one race? That's the only situation I can see where calling any country a shithole is racist.

You seem to be the only one upset about this. Lotsa people call the US a shithole all the time around here, you don't see a lot of people get upset at that fact and call it racism, do you? Learn to accept the fact your country's a shithole-- that's one baby-step on the road to recovery, acceptance. Don't be immature about it.

Another question: Is it excusable if people from Syria get to call Syria a shit hole? If you think that is, we may have a problem.
