And just to think Palestinians and Israelis should have had peace 30 years ago untill the Israeli prime minister yatzhik Rabin got assisnated.

Can't you be happy for people the reason people came from Syria or eastern Europe and things like that is because of problems in there nations that didn't exist most.of them untill after ww2. Syrians actually helped the British against the ottoman empire in ww1.

It's easier to explain this before ww1 Europe was a land of empires we are not today and that included the ottoman empire to. We are not today but nation states all over the world including America exists today because of it.

Be happy for the Syrians they are no problem for us Brits not even connected to our history

Assyrians ( that's why Syria is called Syria after the people there) actually supported us in western Europe against the ottoman empire.

Little bit of history for you Jerusalem actually belongs to the British. IT was. part of the ottoman empire before ww1 then britan France and Russia went to war Britan France Russia divided up the ottoman empire which people like to moan about today but it's the reason the middle east exists and why everyone down there lives in nations that got independence from us in the UK France or other European nations before ww1 because we other European nations had colonies within the ottoman empire.

The reason we want you youngsters to be different from your elders today people.moan about the partioning of the ottoman empire India and Africa but the world was totally different before ww1 and ww2 lot's of what you have today stems from that the world outside Europe especially in Britain's case stems from our history here who nations got independence from today. We want different for you youngsters all across the world today these problems shouldn't be happening in the 21st century plus Palestinians and Israelis should have had peace 30 years ago untill the Israeli prime minister at the time got assisnated.

Why would want people want to come to the UK now the places where our empires used to be in Europe have now turned into places we go on holiday to now or to live to escape the crap here. 😂🫠🫠 Even I want to go and live in Syria now or the UAE anywhere is better then Europe the land of empires that don't exist anymore but the world outside of Europe does instead

Basically after ww1 the french took control of Lebanon and Syria us Brits Palestine nations didn't exist then but after ww2 they did and got independence from us the problems there have always between People there not us in Europe.

If we are nice to them they might invite to there celebrations they will know the help this nation has given them like they have coming here to.

There's an area in the middle east split between Iraq turkey Syria and Armenia it's a nation without borders it's called an autonomous region in the first Iraq we went to help them people there.

One more time as this effected my life growing up in the UK knowing how the world was changing around me and Europe and watching amazing nations today like the uae and Singapore and India becoming the 5th biggest economy in the world and living in America and knowing that many nations stem from our history how Africa has become what it is today in the UK and Europe to. Our empires don't exist today but what the world had today outside of Europe does in nations that didn't exist not so long ago and most of them untill after ww1 and ww2

@Roger-go6jc it's quite clear someone thinks thats of us Brits today all living in nations today that got Independence from us or Europe today. I wonder who that has benefited and people living in the past with Europe with history they have never lived but have everything they have today because of it.

@LovelyFencing-py6ke migration has never been done right into the UK they where calling people refugees they where displaced people they had to disguise how the world was changing after ww2 Syria didn't even exist until 1945. Most people here are British now. Truth is Syria was nothing to do with us Brits it does the french

@JohnWest-dm4qb let them be happy that's the trouble with the UK people are still happy for there homelands and nation states but nothing gets explained properly they where never against us you don't come to nations you hate.

We know people who are doing this to the UK are not British because they don't even understand why Muslims live in the UK and I bet most people living in the UK who say they are Syrian ate not even Syrian because it will be them people really celebrating lots of people in the UK say there from one place but come from another.

@JohnWest-dm4qb the UAE this weekend had what they call it's national day the day they got independence and there nation came into existence guess who they got independence and the UAE is amazing today and plenty of people holiday in Dubai none of that existed untill 1971 and is nothing like it is today 30 years ago.

@anfieldreds_1892 us Brits don't leave them nations because them nations wouldn't exist without us south Africa became a nation in 1910 when six European colonies formed together America wouldn't exist if us Brits didn't have 13 colonies there and gave them independence Canada didn't even become a nation untill the 20th century and stems from the same 13 colonies that America stems from and Australia and new Zealand still have the union jacl in there flags the middle East is a little different world because that all stems from ww1. You need to learn how different the world is today then before ww1 and ww2 and Europe also. Our empires in Europe don't exist anymore but what the world has today outside of Europe and nations to call home does instead now. In a modern sense.

Everyone wants to live in the past with us Brits talk about our empire and history no one has lived today but they don't want to talk about how our empire the biggest in recorded history has turned into nations and given millions of people from around the world and Europe living here today what they have and billions across the world to.

Whoever has brought this mess to the UK which was the most progressive multicultural society in the world not so long ago with politicians from all over the world and Europe sat in Westminster today watching us argue like this get ready.

We cut the crap out of history obviously because the world outside of Europe and Europe where the demographic is completely different today then before that for the best part is to different for that and the people in charge won't allow this but we can if we talk about things sensibly now because us in Europe need that history to stand and you all have benefited from it now. This is about normal people not living in the past and those in charge of nations that didn't exist not so long ago taking responsibility for there own actions now.

Just to think it's crazy most nations in the world today only exist because of us In Europe including America that didn't exist 250 Yeats ago either just like the modern day middle East didn't exist 100 years ago either.
