Oh my....I'm a hippie now? I love the way it all boils down to a personal attack in the end. Our view of the Middle east situation is what it is because we're just too young and stupid and full of silly idealism to know better.
Brilliant.
And what's that crap about our best niches being saturated by immigrants? We're a continent....we have populations shifting about. We attract immigrants and we lose emigres at a similar rate. I don't see how that's saturation. It's just a shifting picture, a society in flux. No bad thing if you ask me. Pretty much the way it's always been. The only real difference now, is that our population shifts come from peacable migration and the odd band of refugees rather than wholescale marauding, invasion and streams of dispossessed.
Incidentally, the figures for Europe as a whole may show a young population, but Britain has an aging one. WE need a little immigration else we're going to be in trouble in a few years.
