The Refugee Crisis

     Just like Americans are dealing with an influx of people crossing our borders, all of Europe is dealing with a seemingly never ending deluge of refugees.  It seems almost incomprehensible to imagine, the steady flow of thousands upon thousands of people seeking asylum in one's nation could possibly be happening in 2015, but it is.  Once Merkel acted hastily and without seeking the thoughts of her people, the borders of Germany are now open, and from all accounts, it is a pure mess.
     German citizens are cleaning up trash and reportedly also cleaning toilets in migrant centers.  Refugee camps are having an issue with prostitution and rape.  Actual Syrian refugees are giving up their passports to those who helped "traffic" them to Merkel's promiseland so their legitimate passports can be used for someone else.  Reports are coming out, not just from Europeans but from refugees, that the people coming into Europe are not escaping war, but are ISIS fighters.  I can look at a wide variety of pictures and am concerned with how many men I see.  These men leaving this "war torn" nation of Syria surely outnumber the women and children coming into Europe.  That is what is troubling.  Is it possible that ISIS is fulfilling their prophecy of silently infiltrating the EU in part to stage a grand attack?
      While I was researching the refugee crisis I came across a term I had not heard of before.  Eurabia.  Interestingly enough, this term refers to a conspiracy theory lead in part of Arab and French powers to weaken the European culture by allowing the Islam and Arab culture to dominate.  Essentially this alignment is two fold; one goal is to increase European power to rally against the U.S., which would then lead to hostility between Europe and Israel, so says its author Bat Ye'or.  It's a really complex and woven web of deceit and political power.  This theory of Eurabia is claimed by most to be Islamophobic and an alarm sounding with no merit behind it. But for one second let's say it's not.
     I am the first to admit that this theory seems a little far fetched.  Why on Earth would France want to try and shake the boat with the US?  After all, we did save them from the Nazi's.  Could it be possible they think, like our President and other liberals, that the U.S. is too big for our britches?  I wasn't giving in until I saw a story that came out today.  With tensions rising at the Temple Mount, France called for international observers at the holy site.  This type of agreement  was not sought by France from Israel since agreements were already made but not written down a year ago between Israel, Palestine, and Jordan.  Not saying that France should not voice an opinion as to international solutions, however, this had bizarre written all over it.  Why not involve Israel in a decision involving one of their sites they consider holy?
     Is it possible that ISIS fighters are mixing into the pure chaos of the refugees flocking into Europe? Absolutely!  Is it likely that other nations plot ways to take down the American might?  More than likely, and I would argue this happens on a daily basis.  Which is why I cannot discount this theory of Eurabia.  For those who think this is nothing more than Islamahobia, I counter with this.  How much longer can every nation try to be the most tolerant and the most accepting before their very nation is gone to those cultures they are trying to forever cater to?
