Link doesnt open. Am sure its probably in relation to people drowning whilst fleeing their war torn country. Are you less appalled by the death of the Canadian victim the other day than the Brits who died?

You're right, we should all travel to Syria and make friends with the nice locals. It'll "build bridges." So now ALL Syrians are bad? An attitude that sums up what's fueling the issues we are seeing today. Edited by europalace (05 Jun 2017 6.30pm)

The loss of any innocent life is tragic. Do you think that the Canadian woman's death is less tragic than the boat people's deaths? Why is your knee-jerk reaction to the deaths of terror victims to immediately refer to the prior deaths of some other set of people in a different part of the world by different means? What's your implication? That the two sets of deaths somehow even out? That we shouldn't be so upset about the second set of deaths because of the fact of the first? Or, are you implying that some people on this board (or Westerners in general) value Western lives over Middle Eastern lives? Personally, I think it's offensive to react to the deaths of innocents by immediately changing the subject to focus on a different, prior tragedy, especially with the implication that the two tragic events together form a sort of cosmic quid pro quo. I suspect that what you might be trying to do is accuse certain of your antagonists on here of caring more about Western lives than lives from other parts of the globe. But your manner of doing so is disrespectful to the victims of these recent terrorist attacks. Frankly, it comes off as tasteless.

Which are? Domestic policy also often has 'unforeseen consequences and side effects' as well. I hear about internment a lot, and its traditionally been a disaster when used. It escalated the Boer War and worked to the IRA, INLA and UFF / UVF's interests in Ireland. Its also been a massive problem when the US tried using 'illegal' detention. Arguably fuelling anti-Americanism across the Muslim world. Worked for the second world war though. People cite what suits their agenda. Not that I think internment would work very well for this particular circumstance.
