&lt;P&gt;i agree with immigration until an immigrant puts thousands of lived at risk by planting a home made bomb or blowing himself up.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;i was trying to explain my reasons for not wanting eastern immigrants in this country and the way i tried to explain it was - when they all come in, you dont know whos safe and whos dangerous therefore the government shouldnt risking 60m lives by letting them in with this terror threat still at large. so basically stop them all to prevent the few until of course the terror threat is over... if it ever will be!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;ye youve basically said what i tried to say and explain. looks fine the post does hmmm&lt;/P&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: THE WAR</title><link>http://forums.itv.com/thread/855283.aspx</link><pubDate>Sun, 05 Jul 2009 21:21:37 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">b561de92-0a29-4f6c-9725-81efcf327865:855283</guid><dc:creator>susanna foxtrot</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forums.itv.com/thread/855283.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forums.itv.com/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=563&amp;PostID=855283</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;P&gt;Ash sorry but your comments are ridiculous.&amp;nbsp; One minute you say govt. mustnt risk the lives of 60m people by letting the wrong ones in - where previously you said you dont know until happens before its too late!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The only way you can stop it 100% is&amp;nbsp;to stop ALL immigrants from&amp;nbsp;Mid eastern countries entering the UK.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;No-one can sort out who the extremists are.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;With Germany and Hitler we knew who our enemy was - we dont&amp;nbsp;now - and the only way to protect us is to stop immigration from those countries that have a grudge against us.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

until intelligence states otherwise every single middle eastern person/family who moves here are just as peace loving as the other 98% of the immigrated population we have. we should allow immigration but not at the expense where you could be risking the lives of 60 million innocent british people. if there is an even slight chance of an extremist being among the immigrated then all must be stopped. not to be racist but to protect the british people. that is one main thing they are there for - to keep us safe from invasion and terror and when they fail like they have by letting them in in the first place it makes you wonder are we really safe in our own country.

thats the problem in this country with immigration from the east is not knowing whether they are safe or a dangerous mass murder plotter and you dont know until it either just before is scheduled to happen or its too late. that kind of danger should not be allowed period. stop it at its source! iradicate the threat and open the doors to this country by all means but all i say to the government is do not risk the lives of 60 million people by letting the wrong ones in!</description></item><item><title>Re: THE WAR</title><link>http://forums.itv.com/thread/855254.aspx</link><pubDate>Sun, 05 Jul 2009 19:27:35 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">b561de92-0a29-4f6c-9725-81efcf327865:855254</guid><dc:creator>wardy03</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forums.itv.com/thread/855254.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forums.itv.com/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=563&amp;PostID=855254</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;P&gt;Although i agree with the latest comments by both yourself and john e,what have they to do with "THE WAR"?

&lt;P&gt;i think the central point of this war is the&amp;nbsp;fact&lt;STRONG&gt; we invaded them&amp;nbsp;&lt;/STRONG&gt;and we had no reason to be there for anything other than a power game and free oil. the torture and lack of human rights is the scapegoat to justify their actions i believe.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;no they wont be worse off becuase of us entering you cant really get much worse than 100,000 dead. instead of them we are the ones worse off because we will be the invaders to extremists, the target not the friend and when were gone, they come out of hiding they'll just be back to square 1. brown will not get rid of terrorism in all forms because as sad as it sounds it is infact a way of life and has been for the last million years for the human race. 1 war whether started by us or not will not change that.&lt;/P&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: THE WAR</title><link>http://forums.itv.com/thread/855019.aspx</link><pubDate>Sat, 04 Jul 2009 12:42:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">b561de92-0a29-4f6c-9725-81efcf327865:855019</guid><dc:creator>susanna foxtrot</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forums.itv.com/thread/855019.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forums.itv.com/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=563&amp;PostID=855019</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;P&gt;You are so wrong Ash.&amp;nbsp; The day you can start to understand how extremists can kill innocent people as revenge is the day you should leave this country and go and live over there.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I disagree with us going into the war but for different reasons - simply because it is not our war.&amp;nbsp; However, there were 100,000's innocent people being killed in Iraq by the sadistic leaders that ruled the country therefore those lives would have been lost anyway.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I expect ultimately because of the wars peace will prevail and the Iranian and Iraqi people will be able to live without fear of being stoned to death or hands cut off or stupid biblical laws making their women's lives hell.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I dont believe we should have gone in to save these people but they are no worse off now than they would have been under the original extremist laws.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;in a way since iraq had no government. the taliban were the (unofficial) government afterall it was a free land before we came in and who are we to judge whats right and what wrong in someone elses country when we need to take a step back and look at ourselves first! our media run a mock, our government flaunts human rights yet there numerous things that prove every freedom u have is restricted and our prime minister is not a leader more a dictator. so as a matter of fact brown does infact rank up their with irans&amp;nbsp;president and president mugabe - only difference is brown aint killing his own people (not inc troops)..... yet anyway!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;and on the subject of iran, we are now underfire from them.&amp;nbsp;whats worse for the british people is i actually do think they are still&amp;nbsp;making a nuke and i can bet where is gonna drop too - london! sooner or later countries like iran, iraq, afghanistan, russia, china will just end up invading us and killing 100s of thousands of us to topple our government.&amp;nbsp;our country is throwing its weight around thinking its the big&amp;nbsp;guy - just a big bully and sooner or later like&amp;nbsp;victims of bullying these countries will just end up giving us the devestation back.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;i believe well get our commupence&amp;nbsp;some day and we'll regret as a country even being involved in this. sounds bad but like pro death penalty folks say "an eye for an eye". same kinda thing&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: THE WAR</title><link>http://forums.itv.com/thread/854934.aspx</link><pubDate>Fri, 03 Jul 2009 20:24:10 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">b561de92-0a29-4f6c-9725-81efcf327865:854934</guid><dc:creator>susanna foxtrot</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forums.itv.com/thread/854934.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forums.itv.com/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=563&amp;PostID=854934</wfw:commentRss><description>not just the troops - we are all paying the price in the form of terrorism and extremism now rife in the UK</description></item><item><title>Re: THE WAR</title><link>http://forums.itv.com/thread/854895.aspx</link><pubDate>Fri, 03 Jul 2009 17:53:09 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">b561de92-0a29-4f6c-9725-81efcf327865:854895</guid><dc:creator>bodgerw</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forums.itv.com/thread/854895.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forums.itv.com/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=563&amp;PostID=854895</wfw:commentRss><description>the iraq war was wrong, when maggie thatcher sent our troops to the fauklands it was our war and we had to be in it, when our troops came home VICTORIOUS was wonderful, parades and parties. maggie was a hero somwhat like churchill, now blair on the other hand wanted the same and even sexed up need to go to war he to wanted to be a great leader but FAILED badly, our troops now suffer badly for blairs falsehoods.</description></item></channel></rss>
