Unlinking refugees to Paris attack.

By now, most of us have heard about the attacks in the french capital on Friday evening. For those who haven't, here is a brief summary:

First attack Friday 13th of November, Stade de France - explosion outside the national stadium while France played Germany. Little after a second explosion echoes inside the stadium. Both carried out by suicide bombers. 

Minutes later, in Paris's 10th districts gunmen arrive with rifles at two restaurants, Le Carrion and Le Petit Cambodge.

Soon after, another explosion at Stade de France, meanwhile a shooting was carried out at La Bonne Bier in the 11th district. Followed by shootings at La Belle Equipe and Comptoir Voltaire, another two restaurants.

Finally, the last attack at around 9:40 in the concert venue Bataclan, also by shootings. 

All of these attacks happened between 9:20 and 9:40. As many start hearing of the attacks they automatically started to link them with the Syrian refugees. This is plastered all over social networks. 

I personally do not believe this is fair, people are trying to escape the Syrian war and the threat of the Islamic State.

"People who climbed mountains or crossed the Mediterranean on rafts did not arrive in France and transform themselves immediately into armed terrorist killers" said Anne Applebaum, and I agree. We can not automatically link these two facts, the same as we can not automatically link a Muslim with a terrorist or a coloured person as a culprit in a crime. Despite its unfairness we live in a world where this is inevitable.People are creatures of this nature, unfortunately.

Being a person who is a supporter of equality, this kind of thing bugs me, so when I heard that Ben Carson, republican candidate for 2016 elections had argued that United States should now block Middle Eastern refugees from entering the country, I became infuriated. 

Of course, he wasn't the only one putting the blame on the Middle Eastern refugees and, as I mentioned before, the link of IS attacks and Syrian refugees was flourishing all over the internet. 

Yet it is important to state that this operation was planned or carried out by refugees as the actual killers knew the city very well. 

It has been a scare for Europe this weekend and also for the rest of the world, we are in an epoch where terrorism is frequent, where killing is normal, where violence is inevitable and where action is taken but never enough. I ask myself in what world are we living? And how long will it be until World War III is declared, officially I mean? I say officially as many believe WWIII has already begun, although unrecognizable, of course, again, it will be a bankers war, where countries who are already on the border of collapsing will reach for extra power and wipe out many others, because at the end of the day, none of us plebeians matter to the imperial patricians, all they are interested in is infinite power and copious amounts of money. 

My condolences to all those affected.
