  1. It's just like big business in America. 

    It is illegal to hire illegal immigrants! So big business hires, or starts contract companies that can not be traced back to them: and go around the laws!

    Everyone knows they are breaking the law but no one wants to stop it!

    Pays off's to immigration officals, politicans, city officials allow them to keep their new slave labor force.

    Without jobs, free money for food, free education, housing assistance the illegal immigrates would not stay!

     

    You could send a bus with immigrantion officers to any major/minor hotel, construction site or country club and bust 100's every day of the week. Of course, that would put them out of business! LOL

    It is so wrong, we need more people with a with morals and to stick with it. The rich get richer and the poor get fu..ked. This is why everything is so fu..ked up in my opinion. What a world we live in.

    Tatheem Fatima is only 12 years old, but she is well aware of the horrors afflicting her fellow Shia Muslims in the Middle East, thousands of kilometres away from her home in New Delhi.

    "They are killing our people. They are killing all those going for the holy pilgrimage," she said.

    Videos and smart phones have brought the conflict in Iraq and Syria to many parts of the world, including to Ms Fatima's mosque in the Indian capital.

    Many of the devotees here – including children and teenagers – have images and videos on their phones of Islamic State (IS) militants murdering civilians, and Shia shrines being desecrated.

    Ms Fatima said indiscriminate killing went against her religion - and said she would do anything to stop IS.

    "I want to go there; I want to kill them," she said.

    "I also want to be of some use there, by serving water, serving food, helping those who are in need of hospitalisation and assisting them. These are the things I would like to do."

    Leaders at the Karbala Mosque in New Delhi said 200,000 people across India – including Sunni Muslims, Christians and Hindus – had registered their interest to volunteer in Iraq since June.

    Coordinator Bilal Hussein said in the first instance they would send volunteers with practical skills – like medicine or engineering – to help those in need, and also spread the message that the Islamic State group did not follow Muslim beliefs.

    I want to go there, and I want to kill them.

    "We want to show them that Islam gives you the message of love – not picking up arms and killing people," he said.

    Mr Hussein said he had heard reports that several Shia shrines in a number of cities in Iraq and Syria had already been destroyed by militants.

    "We would form a human chain around the shrines and if they want to desecrate the shrines, they have to go through us first," he said.

    "If they kill us, [only] then they can desecrate the shrine, and we will not let that happen."

    Abbas Naqvi, who will be among the first volunteers to go to Iraq, said he was not scared of becoming a human shield.

    "Everybody wants to sacrifice their lives," he said.

    "And if anybody would die there, then that person would consider themselves the lucky and blessed one whose life went in sacrifice for the protection of these shrines."

    South Asia fears IS advancement

    IS strongholds in Iraq and Syria are thousands of kilometres away from India, but there are growing concerns the insurgency is making inroads into South Asia.

    The Pakistani Taliban have pledged their allegiance to IS and there are unconfirmed reports that men brandishing IS flags have killed and beheaded people in Afghanistan's east in recent weeks.

    Authorities believe several dozen Indians have gone to fight with the terrorist group, and that more could be recruited.

    "There is a lot of unemployment here, including among the Muslim youth," retired Indian intelligence officer Jayadeva Ranade said.

    "In a lot of these recruitment pitches that these terrorist groups make they offer them monthly payments as well as payments to their families in case anything happens to them.

    "So that is an attraction for a lot of them."

    India is a free country – a very free country. There are no restrictions on mobility. People can go anywhere.

    Mr Ranade said tracking fighters who returned to India would be difficult.

    "India is a free country – a very free country. There are no restrictions on mobility. People can go anywhere," he said.

    "So once they come back, the difficulty will be not in assessing whether they are back or not, but after that where they move.

    "The danger is that within a couple of years the agencies or the police authorities may lose track of them or consider them to have become softened because of inaction in that period and that is where the risk element comes in."

    IS has purportedly named places in India where it plans to recruit from and has declared the entire country as part of the 'caliphate' it intends to create.

    Looks like Isis is making their way into India now. Frickin cockroaches.

  3. "Although Erbil and Baghdad have embarked on a path toward solutions, it does not mean relations have been resolved. This also does not mean that neither will make mistakes that could lead to re-escalation. Nevertheless, the existence of a common desire by both sides to consider solutions, instead of severing relations, remains the best choice for preserving both their interests in the long run."

    It's a start. Hopefully they can come together and keep the momentum going.
