Quick: what do Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman and the UAE have in common?
If you said they are not accepting refugees from Syria you'd be right.

I wasn't aware refugees were even going there.
After all, they can't escape the Global Warming, which obviously, in addition to poorly produced movies and bad cartoons, inspires terrorism, leading to migration and human tragedy.

Re: Update Update
Recent quote from the German Chancellor - Germany maybe the only country left who will take them. I guess she didn't arrive at those values by consulting with the rulers of Saudia Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain etc. I'm not sure which way I'd go if it were my call, but I don't think it's necessarily idiotic to take risks for the sake of humanity.Angela Merkel wrote: we live from compassion, love of one's neighbors, and joy in community. We believe in everyone's individual right to seek happiness… in respect for others and in tolerance.
...
answer the terrorists by living our values confidently, and strengthening them in the whole of Europe - now more than ever.

Why? Don't their studies have enough books in them now that they don't call them "libraries" nowadays?
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Ok, nevermind then, no refugees!

Besides, we already had the Fugees once, and they got pretty popular at one point. I doubt the new ones will be better, and certainly not with that musical talent that Joe posted.

Well, I like the idea of the troll getting his comeuppance. That should teach him a thing or two about assimilating.

Re: Update Update
Thanks Joe! Cats to the rescue! BTW the next video in that sequence is about cats taking over dogs beds. Glad you didn't use that one.
I am fortunate to have a great job that feeds my family well, but music feeds my soul.
