Immigrants are America's great strength

Legal immigrants who stand in the queue for their green cards just like everyone else, and who are educated and have something to offer to the US. Not those who want to migrate illegally and neither those who undercut American wages.

I'd rather have a struggling immigrant with poor English skills

And how about immigrants with good English skills? Your liberal mask will be off when it comes to certain immigrants with good English skills whom you have previously disparaged as being bigots.

Muslims will vote for Biden before they would vote for the anti Muslim Trump.

Yeah because Democrats have successfully captured the Muslim vote. Not that the Democrats really care about what is happening to the Muslims.

Any sane person of Muslim faith should realize that Trump, who is not afraid of speaking his mind, is less of a danger than the numerous politicians on the left who feign concern for them but will abandon them once the elections are over.

Progressive Jews who have long supported liberal causes like BLM and have also not been shy of criticizing Israel are now facing the full brunt of racism from their own fellow liberals.

Hopefully the next to wake up to the fact that liberals are much more racists than the conservatives will be other successful minorities in the US, who have long voted Democrat but are slowly realizing that its the racism from the left (disguised as fake concern for the minorities) which is much more harmful for them than that from the right.

Posted in: In Germany, the far right is on the rise again. How did it happen? See in context

Meanwhile, in the real world outside of anecdotal bar talk, Germany in 2023 has granted asylum to 82 asylum seekers from Pakistan. "Many" indeed.

My original post mentioned that many migrants from Pakistan had applied for asylum on those grounds, not how many asylums had been granted.

For example,

https://www.ethnologie.uni-muenchen.de/personen/professorinnen/soekefeld/return-to-pakistan/index.html

The link mentions that 32000 plus migrants from Pakistan were found undeserving of asylum between 2016 and 2019.

Leaving the numbers aside, even if one person is able to game the system it shows that the system is not working as intended, and it also gives an incentive for other 'economic migrants' to follow on the path of those who preceded them.

My dad works for the UNFCCC and has been a regular visitor to Bonn for the last 17 years.

He himself has seen how much things have changed, for example the restaurant which he frequents used to serve ham earlier but now those dishes are off the menu. Then women (Turkish immigrants) wearing the veil on the streets.

A bar he frequents has a Pakistani bartender, who told him recently how many migrants from Pakistan have sought asylum in Germany on the grounds that they are homosexual and homosexuals are persecuted in Pakistan. The bartender was laughing that the Germans will one day start thinking that most of us (from Pakistan) are homosexuals.

Posted in: India to begin voting on April 19 in world's largest election See in context

Congress, which has ruled India for 54 of its 76 years since independence from Britain, has sunk to record lows after Modi swept to power and is struggling to revive support.

Congress still has a solid support base of Muslims, but it is unable to appeal to the anti-Modi voters beyond that.

As long as the Gandhi’s hold on to the Congress leadership by playing up their own family's role in history and don’t step aside, they will continue to run their own party into the ground. And there is no other party which has the sort of pan-India appeal and can fill the vacuum.

Sad to see the Grand Old Party which once fought British colonialism in such a state, but they only have themselves to blame.

Posted in: In ‘Bob Marley: One Love’ film, what's his faith? And why is marijuana deemed holy to the Rastafari? See in context

Indentured servants from India brought the cannabis plant to the island in the 19th century, and it gained popularity as a medicinal herb.

Cannabis is considered 'holy' in Hinduism and is mentioned as one of the 'sacred plants' in ancient Hindu texts. Devotees of the Hindu god Shiva have a strong cannabis culture.

Since this is an article about Bob Marley, let's light up a chillum and sing -

So ironic that India has basically stopped Muslim access to the country due to Hindu nationalism too!

Load of bollocks.

India has the 3rd largest Muslim population in the world, but what does Sunak, a British Indian, have to do with what goes on in India.

Unless he wants to behave like a typical Brit - can't solve their own problems, but first to wag their finger and tell other people how to run their countries.

There are Youtube videos of Indians bragging about how much they are earning as mercenaries. They went to Russia on tourist visas with the plan to illegally find jobs, and joined as mercenaries willingly.

When the fighting gets hot, they now want the Indian government to help out. Don't tell me they didn't know what they signed up for.

The only reason Russia doesn't look down on India is because it is also a poor country, to be polite.

Maybe, but that's why Russia values India as a partner, unlike the West which will feign friendship and adopt use-and-throw foreign policies against non-White majority nations.

Unless those nations bring something to the table, like oil in case of the Middle East. Guess India also brings something to the table, that is why there are no secondary sanctions on India despite the likes of you screaming about it.

Posted in: Japan and India agree to step up security and economic cooperation See in context

Seriously? Can India be trusted?

The question is whether India can trust these Western nations or not. At the end of the day, they will still look down on India as a third world hellhole and never consider it as one of their own. So why should India cut off its ties with an old friend, unless you think that the West can order all other nations around like they used to.

With Japan however, India shares a special relationship. It does not matter what Japan or Japanese think of India, for India Japan will always be the one Asian nation that, though allied with the West, is a role model and a deserving leader of the Asian people.

You mean the mineral that is literally everywhere? Russia is #6 on that list and won't be missed.

You are accustomed to hitting the keyboard without doing any research so let me help you out here.

https://www.dw.com/en/russia-nuclear-industry-eu/a-66275352

Russia accounts for more than 45% of the world's uranium enrichment capacity, delivering atomic fuel to nuclear power plants in several countries, including in the US, which despite its harsh sanctions regime against Moscow continues to pay $1 billion a year to source fuel from Rosatom.

Their only product is oil

Uranium and nuclear energy. Try sanctioning Rosatom for starters, the results will not be what you hope for.

https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/odr/russia-ukraine-eu-nuclear-energy-zaporizhzhia-rosatom-sanctions/

Also the West never tried real sanctions which should have swept up the Indian refining business.

The only thing it would sweep up are your sweeping statements. India has the 4th largest oil refining capacity by country, and pre-2022, much of that was for the domestic oil market.

Since the West decided to sanction itself from Russian oil, it was easy for Indian oil refiners to divert the processed oil products from domestic to international markets.

Last month it was NYC, now it's California.

That's what happens when you put obstacles in front of law abiding citizens who wish to own firearms for the sole purpose of defending themselves and their families.

You end up with criminals owning firearms and law abiding people running for cover in sitting duck zones.

Posted in: Chief enforcer of U.S. gun laws fears Americans may become numb to violence with each mass shooting See in context

If guns make you safer why isn’t the US the safest place on Earth?

Because two thirds of Americans have been misled by the liberal agenda and refuse to own guns even though they have a right to.

Also, because even in states where gun rights are not trampled upon, there are severe restrictions on where guns can be carried. It has been proven time and again that gun free zones are sitting duck zones.

Last but not the least, the criteria for migrating to the US does not verify whether an individual believes in the vision of the founding fathers. Immigrants are diluting the freedoms of the Americans by believing in the liberal agenda and supporting gun restrictions.

Only those individuals who believe whole heartedly in the second amendment should be allowed to enter the US.

And some of Scotland's 16th century "fathers" envisioned witch burning. Should we still be doing that?

Witches don't exist.

Gun loving patriots do.

Innocent women without any malice in their hearts were branded as witches and crucified. In modern times, innocent patriots without any malice in their hearts are branded as 'violent gun nuts' and crucified.

Yes, guns save us from violent deaths and empower us to live our lives as free individuals.

He said people must not accept that gun violence is a prevalent part of American life.

Guns are a prevalent part of American life, as they should be because that is what America's founding fathers envisioned.

Violence is a prevalent part of life in many countries. Even in countries having strict gun laws, because violence is more part of the social and cultural fabric of countries, and taking countries on the path of peace and away from violence requires much more than knee jerk reactions by lawmakers.

These 2 terms - guns and violence have no correlation, except in the echo chambers of those with a political agenda to link the 2 things and then demonize a segment of population that believes in empowering individuals to take responsibility for their own safety and self defense.

That's good, because G20 was an economic forum before the West brought their obsession with Ukraine into it and became disruptive.

The G20 host sets the agenda, and Brazil's leftist President Lula has already blamed both Russia and Ukraine for the war, and further blamed Biden for not doing enough to stop it.

https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/brazils-lula-says-zelenskiy-as-responsible-putin-ukraine-war-2022-05-04/

It's funny that the Western liberals blame the right for supporting Russia over Ukraine, but outside the Western bloc its both the left and the right which are actually seeing through the hypocrisy of the Western liberals.
