This is why you want to give everyone in your society a chance to succeed, not just the favored group. She couldn't be great in .af

Tough woman. I wish her the best.

Refugees are just as important to their new country as their new country is to them.
WTFprotocolNr7
All thanks to Denmark’s famously generous refugee policy.
slimmunddaniel
I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic? It’s all contextual, you could argue it’s quite generous in some aspects and faulty in others.

I don’t give a shit about the goal. The beauty of those people loving another’s success is staggering.

She's EVEN better at passing defenses to shreds & progressing the ball into attacking positions. Female Kun Aguero imo. Beautiful (1/2)
kingloofa455
..story. Absolute inspiration. Complete striker. She has a great ted talk on youtube explaining her story.
Bellooch
She happy happy happy. Determination!!!

I'm glad she was able to flee Afghanistan. There will be a lot of refugees coming out of that place now that the Taliban won the war.

Evacuating UK translators to UK now is sad, seems like the last of the educated, normal and brave people leaving.

Great goal, sublime pass to create it beating 2 defenders with the cross.
Eramik
And hopeless positioning by the goalie....

Gorgeous pass, crisp header, great play all around.
kingloofa455
Absolute dream of a cross from her teammate.
ohwhatthehellimightaswell
The cross is better than the goal, IMO. And the goal is spectacular.
BeerCir
Totally agree, the chip cross was amazing, the diving header sealed the play. Superb goal!

Basically, conservatives everywhere hate refugees because it gives them somebody to blame for their shitty policies failing miserably.

I just read that Syrian refugees are trying to leave Denmark and seek asylum in neighbouring countries b/c of treatment on Denmark? Didn't /
JurgenWindcallerz
What r u on about ?
CloudsandRainandSunandWind
See my additions below.
Sakkura
No? Denmark is paying for voluntary repatriation though.
Aryaforthewin
Denmark was tightening restrictions and about 200 refugees had their status withdrawn. Appeal was rejected, given 60 days to leave
Aryaforthewin
I think maybe that’s been reversed since, but that was a big deal at the end of may
CloudsandRainandSunandWind
read the story properly, so could be wrong on the details.
ButtTrumpett
So you didn’t read that.
Aryaforthewin
He did, it’s real
CloudsandRainandSunandWind
I did, I just didn't remember a the details perfectly, fancy that. See my posts above for all the sources.
apartejongeman
Maybe do read the details before posting these statements.
Aryaforthewin
It’s real, Syrians held a protest about it a couple weeks ago. Basically almost 200 refugees had their status withdrawn
CloudsandRainandSunandWind
Well, I had them all right. See my posts above. I just prefer to be perfectly honest, which is why I added the caveat.
CloudsandRainandSunandWind
Jep, here: https://www.sueddeutsche.de/politik/daenemark-asylpolitik-fluechtlinge-1.5313030?reduced=true
Sakkura
Those who had asylum rejected or rescinded are being asked to return. There's a program for financial support for repatriation to Syria.
Sakkura
€20K plus various expenses covered, plus €400 per month indefinitely.
CloudsandRainandSunandWind
German, but with translate younger the gist. Denmark wants to send people back to Syria. They, naturally, don't want to go.
