1. Fuzzy Numbers
The Istanbulian ,   Istanbul   (11.30.15)
2.2 Million migrants vs. 80 million Turks, 10% of which support ISIS. The math doesn't add up...
2. Turkey's handling of Syrian refugees
Miriam Cohen ,   Jerusalem Israel   (11.30.15)
I previously have read that Turkey restricts the ability of the refugees to work. I don't see any mention of this problem being addressed in the agreement. Was it?
3. 3 billion euros & hinting at EU membership
Cameron ,   USA   (11.30.15)
Europeans, what a collection of dumb f****** you've spun down into. You & your lands are doomed.
4. I'd rather burn my tax money than allow
A ,   Belgium   (11.30.15)
one euro cent to go to Turkey. I imagine czar Putin will not be happy about this ridiculous bit of blackmail at all, and may set his sights on some Polish real estate.
5. European geniuses!
tiki ,   belgium   (11.30.15)
In order to 'stop' 3 million Muslim migrants, they are allowing 80 million Turkish Muslims free entry! Question? If Sultan Erdogan will not keep his part of the "deal" what will EU do? Sue him? Pour salt on his tail? The ridiculous Europeans don't have a clue whom they are dealing with and prove once again they don't understand anything about the Muslim mentality or the Turkish Bazaar. Europe is finished and the Western Caliphate is being build.......by the EU themselves!
6. Euroe has been living under the jack boots of Islam
C   (11.30.15)
europe has been living under the jackboot of islam since the discovery of oil/gas. europe is the one who gave independence to the arabs and helped them to develop their oil and gas resources in all their aspects. the ottoman empire which ruled the arabs for five centuries did nothing to develop their economy or culture. the arabs have never expressed the least gratitude for their liberation from the turks or for their oil-gas empire. the turks for their part have become savage islamists who support the muslim brotherhood and the islamic state while blaickmailing the hapless europeans for moneys, for visa waivers, for entry into the eu. the europeans, who have forgotton how to think, let alone fight, will accede to turkey's blackmail.
7. Easy for Turkey to resettle Syrian immigrants.
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (11.30.15)
All the Turkish regime has to do is send all the Syrian immigrants to its illegal settlements in Northern Cyprus and resettle them there using EU money. The difference between the EU's stance on Israel and its stance on Turkey is plainly obvious THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!.
8. NICE RANSOM MONEY
IRANIAN JEW ,   LA USA   (12.02.15)
9. Cheaper To Say NO
Christy ,   Boston, US   (12.02.15)
Don't understand why the EU just doesn't close all its borders and say - NO!? Why keep taking in people that want to change your culture and kill you? ---- Can't imagine what many European Countries will be like in 20 years. They won't be recognizable, that's for sure. --- I'd want to leave if I were living in one.
10. TURKEY IN THE EU... HORRIBLE CONSEQUENCES FOR THE EU
(12.02.15)
but then the EU has regressed to its past..
11. REFUGEES
Nicki Adar ,   USA NYC   (12.03.15)
THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE REFUGEES AFTER WW2 AND THE SYRIAN REFUGEES. WW2 THERE WAS A BLEND OF PEOPLE FROM MANY COUNTRIES. AND DIFFERENT RELIGIONS. NOW THE REFUGEES ALL all MUSLIMS all FLEEING A WAR, DURING A WAR not AFTER A WAR. THE REFUGEES AFTER WW2 HAD SOME KIND OF AN I.D. THESE PEOPLE HAVE NO I.D. AT ALL. NO FINGER PRINT NOTHING. YES I DO FEEL SAD AND SORRY, HOWEVER I THINK IT WOULD BE EASY (ALREADY HAPPENED) , FOR ISIS OR "OTHERS" MUSLIMS TO SNEAK INTO A BOAT AS A REFUGEE. WE WILL HAVE "AN IMPORT" OF TERRORISTS. MR. OBAMA IS AWARE OF IT. ISLAM IS ALSO A POLITICAL MOVEMENT . REMEMBER KOSAVO? AND THOSE REFUGEES HAD PAPERS ON THEM, YET CLINTON WAS SUPER CAREFUL. ONE CAN NOT UNDERSTAND THIS ADMINISTRATION ISTRATION?
