This is precisely the drama of both the Greeks AND the immigrants. That EU regulations keep the immigrants trapped there against their will. Very democratic and very humanistic indeed.
......and is not the European Culture Bicommunal?
The original and true European culture is Graeco-Roman and nothing else. It never had muslim/asian cultural elements in it. But the societies of the former colonial European countries, with their stupid policies, have managed to become bicommunal and tricommunal etc. But that was and is their own fault and problem. And I don't see why this serious problem should be spread to the rest of Europe as well. And the funny thing is that some of the former colonial European countries, Britain mainly, are causing even today, in cooperation with the USA, the waves of immigration from Asian and African countries with their wars and the social and economical instability and the ethnic and religious animosities and conflicts which their policies and their expansionism cause. Illegal immigration is their baby. They and their citizens should deal with it. Not the rest of us.[/quote]
there were othe cultures in Europe besides the Graceo-Roman, which was never neccasrily the True Culture, being imposed by force and often being just a thin veneer overlaid on Native Culture, and which in Western Europe finally collapsed around 400AD-480SD (it had been falling apart for 100 years before) through many factors including desease, and civil war.
