Xenophobia is rising as Europe strains under the pressure of over a million Syrian refugees, but few, if any, of those men, women and children wanted to leave their country in the first place. “I have no reason to stay here”, explains Fatema, a Syrian refugee living in Jordan. Returning to the homeland, the extremity of the damage that the war has done to the country becomes evident. Fatema recalls: "Hrak used to be a thriving city. There were shops from one end of town to the other, on both sides of the street. Now it’s all destroyed." This is not a choice to be taken lightly, but these people have decided it is better to live in fear of war and death than live as outcasts in another country.

as an afghan i will say to my Syrian Brothers and sisters i love you all. we both afghans and syrians have suffered alot. i hope for a brighter future for Syria and Afghanistan.
Axel Abraxas amen
Fuck both country's leave Europe
Im sorry this is happening to you. I welcome every refugee to my country with open arms. Im sorry not everyone is as welcoming..
@@adrianelmaz8194 and fuck you too , do you think they wanted to be in your stinking frigid continent , in Jordan a small nation with a population of 7 million we took in more than a million and a half Syrians and all of Europe took in less than 250 thousand , yet you are always bitching and crying , you are a bunch of racist assholes.
Hope things go well go home and rebuild your country all the best
So happy these people are now able to return to their own country. I hope people from other countries are as fortunate as well.
Not all of Syria is a war zone. The coastal areas are completely safe, and large parts under government control (like Damascus) are also pacified by now, with the frontlines steadily being pushed farther away.
PPAChao seems like Syria is pretty safe
PPAChao the "refugees" are mostly radical sunnis fleeing from the moderate Assad regime
Duffer Man because Europe has a lot of goodies and most refugees are actually radical islamists
I used to live in the coastal areas in Syria and we already have millions of refugees especially from Aleppo.
Assad is the man after all this chaos. Long live Assad!
Best to go back to syria, reunite, rebuild, and rejoice with family. Be the change you wish to see in your country. Create jobs, and create security.
How naive u are blabbering nonsense from sitting on ur couch while ur western governments bomb the hell out of these people's countries
@@Nephthys3150 likewise
Easier said than done!
@@Nephthys3150 well said+
These are the true refugees and it makes me so sad to see their struggles.. Syria was a beautiful ancient country that got destroyed for no reason! Especially the little children are the ones who my heart breaks for!
I am certain Syria could be a beautiful, prosperous country if they stay and work hard to rebuild.
Yes this is true... Push them to learn to Jew people history with those most worse things but still strong and eager to back to their home country/land and develope it
surely they should fight for thier country all these tough fighting men in our Europe should be home fighting for thier country . the woman and children are left behind .
Their dad stayed in Syria to protect their home and send his wife and children much respect
yeah - thousands of brave men -and women- did not run
In Canada, we took in PLENTY of "men" who were of fighting age- why oh why didn't they want to pick up a rifle and FIGHT for their country???
If Canada were invaded, I'd rather DIE fighting than die 1,000 deaths KNOWING in my soul I was a real coward!!!!!!!!
TheSpritz0 tell that to the European Refugees who had their tails between their legs during WW2.
I'm also a Canadian, I'd never run and leave my family behind.. If anyone in my family were to have the chance to escape from war, priority would be every member of my family before myself.
Dee Jay most of their (Syrian refugees) family and friends have likely been killed in the perpetual war...so what have they got the stay for apart form misery??? (Caused the the west btw)
No, you don't know that for sure.
TheSpritz0 stfu boy you're from Canada, you're not allowed to sound tough(even just a little bit).
Freedom is fragile. We must all cherish and nurture peace.
Holy 8 kids that's a problem who needs that many kids
It seems parents who subscribe to a brainwashing cave-man religion that teaches that you should have as many kids as possible so you outnumber the infidels (non-muslims) in hopes of being a majority. Its a Islamic populist ideology that is incompatible with modern society where resources are diminishing due to global over-population.
My son's Christian grandmother has 12 children. She's a Catholic.
@@thekrevolution Robert Kennedy had eleven children, do you think he and his wife were brainwashed and from a cave man religion?
Yes. But they could afford to support the children that they bred. They are not moving to another country and demanding a share of the wealth that those citizens have worked to pay for, as modern refugees do.
When they are in islamic countries, they all want to go back home, but when they are in christian countries, nobody wants to leave.
I support them going home, they aren't ready for a more civilized society. it's not their fault. we should try to give back what they're used to. I'm sure they want to go home and we should have a way to make it happen!
IT WOULD BE NICE IF THEY ALL RETURN HOME.
😁🤭😅
I feel sorry for the 12 year old I wish that boy the best.
Sadly what we see is heartbreaking in Syria , Palestine Afghan and most of Middle East ,Africa and part of Asia . A few politician selfish deeds , ambitions and dirty hands deprive so many million people of their peace and prosperity . UN in 70 years did nothing
Having lived where all life is sacred will give them new insight and motivation when they go home.
SO MUCH LOVE to these refugees. Peace be with them.
Yeah go back home.
they don't look like they are starving at least.. so many people are overweight.
Captain Haddock middle eastern diet
You can increase weight if you eat the wrong things or one sided food. That someone is overweight it doesn´t mean that this person do eat the whole time.
Bcs they don't get to eat veggies and fruit only carbs.
If you eat on rice and pasta all day you will get fat and likely diabetic. Your body needs vitamins or it will die and it can only store 1 months worth at a time.
The fatest refugees in the world
False translation at 5:56.
The woman said the Jeish al-Hor (FSA) will be waiting for them, not her husband.
Meh Gusta true
R u a setan
What's that ?
this is some depressing shit! politics and religion always cause destruction.
So before this video they’re risking everything to get to a safe place and in this video they’re risking everything to go back? All of those healthy men should have just stayed and fought for their land.
Its better to die in my homeland, than to be treatin' like a dog in another country..
eight children? why to make so many kids being uncertain on the future living in a conflict zone like Syria?
some people are really silly...not to be more indelicate.
*Don't have children if you can't provide for them*.
the lesson is simple.
There's no place Iike your own backyard.
Three years is a long time to live in a refugee camp and be seperated from your family. I feel badly for them.
bout time they go back!
+John Gleason They sure have more guts than your racist bigoted little ass!
Not Our people not Our problem. It is not so long ago Europe looked the same because of a few who stole Our land now they are after everyone land. Look at the trouble being caused to Canadians.
Because syria 🇸🇾 is their home. They were happy before isis came and ruined their lives. They are human they don't deserve this. If they are happy in Syria then they should get help going back. They only left to save their children. God be with them
good for them time they went home why are all thease men here anyway should they not be fighting for thier country.
Why is the child in military shorts? Is he going to fight
Sadique Yakubu As long as its not full uniform, there is no problem. Just harmless fasion.
I am muslim. But I choose to die for my country than to be a bother. I am from a country where invaded by 4 differents colonials decades ago
addicz2 ok thanks for the correction, are you Syrian
@@karimlol9072 It's sad, but true. Many of our women, girls and even elderly peoples had been robbed, raped and killed by our guests.
Every damn day you can read it in the news. Our cities and parks are full of groups of well dressed, young, foreign men, behaving like they own the town.
Our citizens live in fear. Women are afraid to go out when it's dark.
Even in broad daylight, some were attacked.
Can you understand why the mood our peoples changed?
Rippenhengst I’m sorry to hear that in u town there is lots of attacks but also not only u town even in Egypt there lots of foreigners and foreign men and they think they own the country but we have to deal it we (Egyptians) have to stand up so now the foreigners now are not doing anything I think u guys should stand up because if u guys are to scared to go on the streets then these foreigners will now u are weak and scared so please stand up because I don’t know why these people are acting like this but actually most don’t attack people I have lots of foreign friends and they don’t attack and I know lots I know many foreigners all around the world not just in Egypt 🇪🇬 but they have been through a lot and we should help and get through this because u don’t know maybe one day u town will have war and then u will be a refugee and u will need to escape
Journeyman Pictures now doing human interest stories to appease the western powers
ROBERT ADAMS Not surprising, Journeyman and Murdoch are Australians. All the media down under are either right or far right like the U.S. It's a very reactionary country and the media is dreadful.
As Tim cracit st a God bless them everyone.
they look well dressed and healthy
Harry Paul because Syrian wasn't a shit country. Their living standards were as good as American.
May Allah protect everyone,all human life is priceless
Su
8 kids!??? Hell I have health insurance and only have 3 I’m married and we both work we live check to check providing the best we can for 3 kids I couldn’t imagine having 8!!!
you see no one win in war, we all lose because so many people die, and you loose soldiers too, so who wins nobody, I wish no one or country to go to war.
Stop praying to God! God helps them that help themselves.
Refugees will have the same fate in European countries, like the French in Algeria, the whites in S. Africa and the Chinese in Malaysia.
If they didn't go back to reclaim & fight for their nation, who will? Or, who do they think should do it?
7:12 using a cell phone while dressed like she just stepped out of the friggin bronze age!
Killed a sever year old boy?? Why do they leave, we have so much to learn from them...
timing of this doc. is funny , since the invasion of mosul started , we expect 2 million refugees more ....
Sorry but not sorry for them
When Russia had a war with Germany all nation stood up and fought against Germans including women, elderly and kids as young as 10!
They didn’t run away in order to find peace and comfort. They fought for their land, heritage and freedom!
These refugees come in millions and most of them are young strong men! WTF?
I don’t mind young kids and their mothers coming, I can even accept one and give them shelter until the war resolves
But I don’t understand why their men run away from responsibility and don’t protect the country?
😥🙏🏻🙏🏻
That's says a lot and shows that they're not in imminent danger. So they should all be returned to sender and everyone that has been granted asylum needs to have it revoked. Some of the women and children can stay but that's it the rest need to leave or die.
Did this guy just say they never wanted to leave? Lmao good one buddy. 90% are military aged males.
Saddam Hussein I don't expect someone with your name to agree with me. But there are plenty of Sunni Muslim countries that could take them in but they don't they don't even make camps for them. Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain all these countries have money and space and don't do shit for them so why should we? We already tried and it failed.
You are a truly awful human being. The decision that woman has made was made out of dispair. If we want to keep creating terrorists then we should listen to people like you.
Josie Fox we don't "create terrorists" idiot that would be Islam. Your type of thinking and failure to admit the true issue and root cause of it is what's in fact creating the problem of terrorists.
The u.s. creates more terrorists than anyone else. Google blowback you fucking ignorant child.
BYE
This is good news maybe they will all go on there way out of are country’s and back to there’s finally there could be light at the end of the tunnel this time they should stay away from war there no really good at it since the beginning they have been fighting each other let them do it in there own country.
This was always the only solution. Good luck. Sincerely.
if you check out Syria on youtube you will se millions of Syrians walking about Damascus etc etc - THEY didn't run
How pity they are.
I bet if they spoke English the world would take them more seriously
It seems Syria is better!!!!
Name vor melodie ?
If the Syrians dont want to leave, they can go to Central Damascus, where international aid agencies should have been sending money for them to be sheltered all along. Camps in Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey could also have been made far safer and organized. They didnt really need to leave the country at all. There are safe areas of Syria. How can there be no funding for that but there is funding and international aid for camps everywhere else? It is not xenophobia erupting in Europe. It is towns being entirely overrun with "refugees" from everywhere and then watching horrific terror attacks, rapes, murders, and robberies take place while some towns as small as 700 see their population double in size overnight with the swell of people from all sorts (including even SubSaharan Africa).... who have absolutely nothing to do with Syria. What are the women of Cologne to be told? "We are sorry you cant go out on NYE without getting raped or assaulted, but there was just too much opportunity here in Europe for people from other parts of the world to resist. Sorry you will have to just deal with the epidemic of violence that befalls you in due to this very serious culture clash and chaos." It's not on. I feel for the Syrian people, but there are some serious opportunists hitching their wagons to the "refugee crisis" migration/opportunity, and Europe cant afford it. I have been an asylum seeker. I know what it's like. You dont go to the host country and kick off if you really need to be there for fear of your life. I can very much understand the desire to be in your home though. It is sad what Meddling of external parties is doing to Syria. It's time for the world to confront American foreign policy and have some hard talks about Saudi Arabia, first and foremost. If The UN was worth its weight in human waste that would have been the first thing they did.
I am tired of this war shit and al of things conected to it. Thus people will never have peace because the way they are thinking to solve the problem.
allah help bashar al ahad and syrian all people. i wish rebel sarender.
Yahyā at-Turkī : if Bashar al-Assad is bad person ! syrian people will judging bhasar al ahad. weapon not needed . destroy homeland. we are not wish this. start war in the country if the country is to write down the name of a beggar.
amerika and israil playing by rebel.
if america have fresh mind ! ofcorce they are stop war, try too Peace submeet.
Yahyā at-Turkī : i do not undastend arabian langue
Yahyā at-Turkī : my nation is Muslim ( no Shia ,no Sunni) only Muslim. my country is bangladesh
Yahyā at-Turkī : 100% belive. Muslim can not Muslim without believe all Islamic massenger
Yakub Ali : They're not Syrian rebels; they're mercenaries from the region.
made it to 3:47
propaganda tier was too high for me
Who will pay your lazy life in europe. ? We need work 2-3 jobs for feeding our family we must pay all energi.
Our grand +grand fathers they fight with germany nacist in 2 ww they fallen for us not for cowards from Syria
I am scare of this people . nothing good I see in their eyes.
jozo z bazin wow really its a woman and children what are they giong to do u racist
If they want to go home let them save benefits and welfare for our people .
The rebels were on the verge of victory and justice was within sight when the Russians stepped in...on a massive scale. And that butcher, Assad was let off the hook. To me, beside the whole tragedy, all the sacrifices, all the heroism have come to nil.
Then what bro , look at libya after gadaffi it is shithole, support or don't support like gadaffi asad is better choice anyday and i am a sunni.
raul99 j putin along with Assad will make Syria great again no one will dare to mess with putin..fuck America.
Yeah america and the west made a mess in middle east, but soviets are not free of blame because of them afghanistan is a shithole now.
Omg... You are definitely a special kind of stupid and brainwashed too.
@Wilcox Wilcox why?
4:16 that woman is kinda hot tho,could bring her to America for a modelling contract or something like that
na-na-na-hey-hey-hey-goodbye.
Well they left because of war and its still going on so what will be different when they get back
What is my concern what the western nation are doing there in Syria far as I see they making things worse
Really, they r oil hunger
They should not go back to a war zone.
It's so sad they've been treated so badly they'd rather return to a war zone
Beth Roesch they've been treated like they should've been.. so fuck off..its beacouse shit people like you,cant say shit to anyone these days,or you get arrested etc..scumbags
Alex psk I'm sorry for the state of your mind and heart✌️💖
Beth Roesch when you are truly only interested in safety, you find a safe country and stay but what do they do? Trample over the borders of half a dozen equally free and safe countries to reach the more welfare lucrative north of Europe. NOTHING to do with safety. Many are just disappointed there are not houses, lots of free money waiting for them. Take in ONLY women and children, send all the damn men home (who are the majority) to rebuild their country. How much money do you think the working people of Europe have? It is NOT a bottomless pit for people like this.
They haven't been treated badly, they are safe they're, damn what does she expect a mansion
bey bey
Insha Allah PEACE to Syria for All Syrians.
GOODBYE !
So what the problem. That are their destiny. Don't want to back home country...but make problem in country that already open to them. They don't have strong mind...they have to learn from Jew people history which also face the relatively same problem
God willing the war will end?? No comment on god and the war starting in the first place?
Humans have a free will🤷
Backwards all thanks to Islamic states
yea they want to go to europe and usa
War city
Work hard, pray to Allah a lot and stay where you are.
We muslim nations failed them !! Wallahi ,I will do something to make this ummah united and strong like iron!!
We (Muslims) believe in Allah, one day Allah will damage West as they damaged our countries, we are not poor we have oil, gas,mineral, talent and ability
Europe played a big role in destablising Syria by giving support to the rebels. I hope Europe keeps getting the refugees by the hundreds of thousands.
Why should the people have to suffer for the mistakes of their leaders? They didn't drop those bombs, it was the sickos in charge who made those choices.
*USA .no Europe
*USA .no Europe
