  2. Hope that pic means recording again.
  3. Bono said he was serious in the way to deal with Extremism is to laugh at them and Europe should let refugees in. People living under isis control would be beheaded if they started laughing at them. We have already seen the effects of letting Syrian refugees into Europe.

    It's not the only thing he said and he's not the only one saying it. And even if it's not the first time that he says half ideas that may or may not be feasible at all, that doesn't makes him unrealistic, actually he's pretty well known as being realistic and presenting well documented ideas to politicians, businessmen et al.

    When things are already fucked up, you don't get good options, you only get bad, terrible and worse options. So far he has shown that he'll always look for the one that seems more humanitarian, and this time he's being consistent with that.
  5. Bono's ideas on this are for the most part bad and the EU leaders are saying so. If an idea to resolve this means European citizens dying then i think most people say its ridiculous. And thats what they are saying with words and actions. Everybody is entitled to ideas no matter how unrealistic
  7. I hate the refugees and ISIS

    Refugees fleeing for their lives and to protect their families are not the enemy here, as Bono made abundantly clear during the tour last year. The more the West perpetuates that kind of black-and-white narrative, the more ISIS wins. They can't believe that Muslims actually want to flee to the West instead of live under their self-proclaimed caliphate in Syria and Iraq!

    Of course, I say this as an American, not a European. But God help us if Donald Trump (or Ted Cruz) gets elected to be our next president - carpet-bombing terrorists and their families and deporting all Muslims are not exactly the policies to undercut the ideology that ISIS feeds off of to recruit new members.
