Can you imagine yourself ever being a refugee?

Would you not fight for your homeland? Do you just leave it and go some other place?
I could imagine myself making border deals maybe,planning for something else.Just leave the place where your ancestors lived and died,trying to make a better world for me?Not a chance.
Probably been asked a thousand times,because the question is so obvious.
How could you trust a person that would do that?

Maybe it's one in the same when you can't defeat your enemy militarily.
If they invite you in send some "soldiers" with the civilians

So are you asking in the context of Syrians? I'm assuming so.
Whose side would you take as a refuge and defend?
1) Assad - gasses his own people and is a tyrant
2) Rebels - who under siege from Assad, Russia, and ISIS and have little hope of survival
3) ISIS - enough said
I think I'd leave. I don't know what I'd be fighting for at that point. It's tough to compare fighting for a country when your homeland is the USA vs. Syria.

What if you didn't agree with either side and just wanted to be left alone? Thousands of Americans, North and South, headed west rather than fight in the Civil War. Mark Twain was one of them.

Not only do you get to live in Germany, but you get to have sex with whomever you want, even against their will, and there is no punishment.

Refugees should be women and children only
Men should stay and fight.
Men should stay and fight.

Who would tell you that you can't?
How do other people( besides myself) determine me losing fights?
Is everybody a bandwagon/T-shirt citizen?

It's really the best of both worlds. Lucky bastards.

i mean we're the best country on Earth
being poor in America is amazing compared to being middle class almost anywhere else
it's a winning lottery ticket/cheat code, considering the rest of the world

Putin and the Russian air force bombing the S*** out of Aleppo is who tells you you can't win.

Unless you're African-American of course. At least according to them.

not as great as it could be, and, in many areas, not as great as it has been
Posted on 1/15/17 at 6:10 pm to Hugo Stiglitz
Great compared to third world shitholes, but not as great as it used to be or has the potential to be again.

I was living in New Orleans in August 2005......so yeah.
