“For Ukraine’s Refugees, Europe Opens Doors That Were Shut to Others” is the snide New York Times headline.
The unsubtle implication is that European countries, especially Eastern European nations, especially countries like Poland, Czechia, and Hungary which were reluctant to accept masses of Islamic migrants, are racist for being willing to accept Ukrainian refugees fleeing the Russian invasion.
Ukrainian refugees are actually neighbors and it makes a good deal more sense for countries to accept refugees who share a common culture with them. Furthermore, assuming the Russian invasion collapses, there’s good reason to expect that the refugees will actually return home instead of using the invasion as a pretext for moving to new countries. If they do decide to use the invasion as a pretext for relocating, they will more likely make their way on to Western Europe rather than remaining in Eastern Europe.
Whatever the Ukrainian refugees do it is highly unlikely that they will run around the streets of their new cities beheading innocent people, running over them in cars, opening fire on cartoonists while shouting “Allahu Akbar”.
Perhaps the New York Times should consider the possibility that this may factor into the decision of countries expressing reluctance to accept 10,000 or 20,000 Syrians or Afghans who show up at their border, but are willing to take in Ukrainians.
Wellington says
Yes, I read this deceitful NYT article, including its referring to present refugees from Ukraine as “Christian and white.” Typical of the NYT, which distorts and lies regularly.
What the NYT did not bother mentioning is that Christians from the Middle East would be welcomed in many eastern European nations. It’s the Islam, stupid, and which is not a race but a supremacist religion with many features in it that are antithetical to freedom, women’s rights, equality under the law, tolerance and a true Golden Rule for all. But the NYT can’t be bothered by such “details.”
tim gallagher says
Well said, Wellington. For the many wide awake and aware people, it is Islam and its vile nature, totally incompatible values to our western way of life, that is the problem with the invading Muslim hordes. Of course, everything these days has to be “racist” , so this welcoming of Ukrainian refugees by neighbouring countries would have to be seen as racist by some leftist fools. That seems to be the way some fools view everything that happens.
Wellington says
Thanks for your reply, tim. And for the record, I think the term “leftist fools” is largely redundant, which I know you will understand, rather like the term “barbaric Muslims,” and I myself regularly engage in such redundancy too since there really is no harm in it. Redundancy, sometimes, is very human and I think defensible.
tim gallagher says
You are right, Wellington, it is redundant. I think a lot of people on the left dream about the way the world should be and then, from then on, nothing will budge them from their fantasy that the real world actually is just as their utopian dream says it should be, even though the real world bears no resemblance whatsoever to the fantasy land they have in their minds. Gullible, foolish and many other descriptions fit their fantasies. They inhabit another planet. But also, a lot of their fantasies are extremely nasty, such as this unhinged hatred for white people (and western civilisation since white people crated it) in recent times and all this crap about how everything is “racist”. They seem to be blind to their own extreme anti-white hatred, which no doubt is behind this nonsense from the NYT in this report.
Westman says
Right on, Wellington. The philosophies by which people live, matters.
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
Several years back, Poland took in over 2 million Ukrainians – but not one illegal muslim.

I’m sure that Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia must have a lot of problems, James, but I’m certain that they have the right approach to the Muslim invaders. I think all of our overly generous countries, when it comes to letting plenty of Muslims in, will one day come to see that the Visegrad bloc countries had it right by shutting the door on incompatible Islam..

Infidel says
Also, the NYT omitted the fact that the only people coming in as refugees to Poland and Romania were women and children, since Ukraine has banned men b/w the ages of 18-60 from leaving the country: they have to take up arms and fight. A sharp contrast to the ‘refugees’ who came in from Turkey, Libya, Pakistan, Afghanistan and other muslim 💩holes
Also, the Ukrainians are actually escaping a war, in sharp contrast to the muslims who were coming in despite Afghanistan achieving stability under the Taliban, ISIS being destroyed and peace returning to most of the countries they came from

However, if you have a puppy, the NYT is a magnet for the little s-machines, especially the editorial pages.
somehistory says
Some people must complain and if they aren’t able to have an “organ recital” (as many frail and elderly might do), they’ll find something else.
Then, there is the hatred of all things Christian and a growing hatred of all things White. If these idiots who just want to degrade the two hated categories, had to bring in …had to as in forced…some from these two ‘groups’ or from the mozlum hordes, which would they want eating in their kitchen or sleeping in their bed or bathing in their tub?
Being secure in the knowledge that…for right now, at any rate…they won’t be forced to allow such people to reside in their homes alongside them and their spouse and children, they can get up on their fake “high horse” and condemn others for making the right choice to keep out the hordes and allow normal people to escape the carnage of war.

New York Times and Canada’s Yahoo are two very far left organizations.There lies and bias are disturbing to say the least.They are so far to the left,they get nothing right.

Dear NYT,
Islam is not a race. It’s a political system masquerading as a religion.
libertyORdeath says
Just a note to the NYT…
refugees do not leave their women and children in the place they are fleeing
Refugees do not go back to the country they supposedly fled on vacation
ECONOMIC MIGRANTS ARE NOT REFUGEES
gravenimage says
True, libertyORdeath. Muslims are worse than economic migrants, though–this invasion is chiefly a “Hijira”, intent on Islamizing the West.

Just a few notes for the NYT…

In fact, in this case, women and children are the only refugees Ukraine has allowed to leave: every man b/w ages of 18-60 has to stay back and participate in the resistance

New York Times: Europeans Racist for Taking Ukrainian, Not Islamic, Refugees
………….

Never mind that Muslims of all races want to slaughter unbelievers and turn their civilized societies into Islamic hell holes.

Why would anyone take in hate filled peoples into the home country of their precious family?
Maemae77 says
Muslims promote such lie as they literally invade European countries. Their Supremacist mindset sees all others as less than. So naturally they would claim “racist” to fool the willfully ignorant kaffirs to get their way.
When you’re treated as special and put above all others which most Americans have been doing for Muslim for for decades. Being treated as equal feels like discrimination. I think Candace Owens has a similar quote.
Americans better stop virtue signaling Islamic Supremacists at your own peril.

“Furthermore, assuming the Russian invasion collapses, there’s good reason to expect that the refugees will actually return home instead of using the invasion as a pretext for moving to new countries.”
Ukraine is treacherously being attacked and invaded by Chechen Muslims reminiscent to the fall of Christian Byzantine in 1453 (thanks to Putin). Assuming the Russian invasion collapses, Ukraine cranes will most likely be busy dismantling every single Mosque, Islamic school and Minaret and repatriating all traces of Islam back to Arabia and not to Poland as a gesture of gratitude.

Ukraine has gone from about 1.1% Muslim twenty years ago to even less today.

The paper was once a major source for students writing school papers. It was a “reliable” source that could be “trusted.” Now, it’s pretty much like wikipedia. Every item is suspect.
James Lincoln says
somehistory,
Yes, similar to Wikipedia.
It gets the sports scores, weather report, and financial indices correct so a naïve reader may assume that all of the other reporting is also correct.
Very big mistake.
