"We must not be under any illusions. Donald Trump only knows strength and then we have to show him that we are strong, and if he reclaims billions of US military spending from us, we will have to reclaim billions from him for the Refugees produced by failed US military interventions, for example in Iraq.

Excuse us, but the rest of NATO went with us into Iraq.
Excuse us, but the rest of NATO went with us into Iraq. Let's not pretend this was done all by our merry selves.
Fighting talk from the Germans, complete with revisionism.
Most of the people risking their loves to get to Germany and Europe are not refugees, but economic migrants.
Xi Jinping, China, the guy who just made himself ruler for life of China, red carpet welcome in EU with a golden carriage ride, no need to explain how horribly the Chinese government treats it's citizens!
It's a point though , the refugee crisis was started by failed US interventionism so why shouldn't they pay toward the cost other countries are having to bear while they close their own doors.

Well. Your dropping bombs in that area for the last two years with the rest of us, don't you try and wash Canada's hands now. I am pretty sure there was a team deployed on the ground as well. I was keeping track of each NATO state as each one started to trickle in a group of "advisors" but I lost track when I realized that Ll the big guys had already had boots on the ground. There are Canadians inside Syria today giving us a hand building g that new country in the Euphrates river valley.
Can't wash your hands in the same bloody sink as the rest of us and claim they are clean my friend.
