On the news last night most of the 'migrants' returned to Turkey were Pakistanis, so what terror were they fleeing?

Anarchy rules in NW Pakistan. Lots of Pakistani Muslims, and not just NW residents, would like to live somewhere else.

The Taliban have been operating inside Pakistan for years. So has the US.

Quite serious since they were already on Lesbos when that suicide bomber struck, unless you are suggesting they were clairvoyant.

Rationalizations and sarcasm. Right.

Only the first pic comes from the Easter bombing. The middle one comes from the 2014 Peshawar school massacre. The last pic is Malala Yousafzai in 2012.

But go ahead. Tell us some more about how no one could have any valid concerns about terrorism in Pakistan.

Those pictures and the incidents they depict don't count because they don't fit Rob's ongoing narrative.

If you look closely at the pictures you will see a lot of people who do not seem that concerned.

That said my 'ongoing narrative' which everyone has chosen to ignore is that all of the phony concern expressed here for the 'migrants' we will never see or deal with is totally forgotten when it comes to the children fleeing rape and murder in Central America.
