I would imagine fit young men will find it easier to run and dodge borders and authorities
than say ,women with children, family units, the elderly, the disabled.
Any race of people having to run for their lives, you're sure to find the fittest,strongest
and the unattached at the front.

Am I supposed to believe because there all men, clothed, had a haircut and some have iphones. That this therfore means they either do not need to seek refuge or extremists?

Didn't know Donald Trump had signed up for the forum

Donald Trump said:
“It’s a total disaster. The people are going to come in. I talked to you about this two weeks ago, where we talked about the migration, how so many of the people in the migration were strong young men. You look at them. I’m saying, Where are the women? Where are the children?”
Click to expand...

Assuming its a serious question then the obvious answer is that those in the population who are fitter and stronger will be capable of travelling the furthest.

The United Nations has registered over 4.2 million Syrian refugees, a step in seeking asylum from other countries, and has a demographic snapshot of about half of them. Of the 2.1 million registered in Egypt, Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon there’s a pretty even split in gender: about 50.5% are women and 49.7% are men. For men and women, the bulk of refugees (a little under a quarter each) are between the age of 18 and 59.

In Europe, over 800,000 migrants have traveled to Europe by sea in 2015, according to the United Nations refugee agency, and a little over half have come from Syria. About 62% of all migrants that have traveled to Europe this year, however, are men. A little under a quarter, 22%, are children and only 16% are women.

Apologies hill83, but as chiefdave has so nicely put up a map of Countries surrounding Syria, he fails to say that ALL of those Countries closed their borders to Syrian refugees almost 2 years ago., and could he please answer this question
Click to expand...

Your timeframe is a bit off but in very simple terms they are unable to cope with anymore.

Lets take Lebanon as an example. Its a country where the population is usually around 4m. They have taken in 1.1m Syrian refugees according to the UNHCR while unofficial estimates put the figure at 1.8 m. That's the equivalent of the UK taking 29m in, we've actually taken 2,500 and already people are claiming we are 'full'. Their infrastructure is creaking at the seems. Lebanon have asked for assistance but none has been forthcoming.

That's before you consider the issues associated with the war now starting to creep over their border with ISIS attacking towns such as Arsal

Jordan is the same, they have said they need in the region of $5bn to cover the cost of the refugees they have already taken in. They are simply struggling to cope. For example schools are running in shifts to ensure all children get their education.

How about this Newspaper? Or is it too much of a Nazi Broadsheet? Taken from "The Washington Post, As Amnesty International recently pointed out, the "six Gulf countries — Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain — have offered zero resettlement places to Syrian refugees." This claim was echoed by Kenneth Roth, executive director of Human Rights Watch, on Twitter
Click to expand...

This is indeed a valid question. Part of the problem is none of the Gulf Cooperation Council states recognises the UN convention on refugees which has been in place since World War Two. Thats what defines people as refugees. Saudi for example argue that they have accepted 2.5m Syrians since the war started but class them as migrant workers not refugees.
As with a lot of things in the Middle East its complex. Many of the countries that you say aren't doing enough favour the same brand of Islam as ISIS and / or are also against Assad.

What it needs is the likes of Cameron to exert pressure rather than sucking up to them.

The UN should have some regulation against the cruel and unusual punishment we endure year after year.

I know you are joking - but seriously, the club wouldn't see a penny of this money. It'll be used to pay something back to SISU to reduce their losses. On the other hand - we may have a chance of keeping the Madderson money - that would be enough to build a very competitive side for L1.

Whatever the result doubt it will be the end of it. Would be nice if now theres a change of leadership at CCC everyone could get round the table and sort this out but suspect we're too far down the line for that now.
