Saudi Arabia: Citizens: 32 million - Syrian refugees: 0 (registered)

Iran: Citizens: 80 million - Syrian refugees: 0 (registered)

The other gulf states have done little to help. UAE, Qatar, and all those wealthy gulf countries have also taken in 0 refugees. They're far more similar culturally than Europeans are to these people.

Yes, that's surprisingly strange:

They argue that the refugees doesn't want to go there.

Thats a rediculous excuse. Refugees by international law can't choose their country of asylum. In that case, they're just economic migrants, and aren't in need of help.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).
