I am evil

Some people, in the past, called me a racist, because I am anti-immigration and anti-Turkish. So, I am evil, because I don't want mass immigration. I am evil, because I don't want the Islamic veil. I am evil, because I don't want Islamic schools and mosques in my own country.

But then, the same people often favour wars of aggression. There are a few people who called me a racist, they called me evil, but they are in favour of war. I don't get it. I am against mass immigration and they have a problem with that. I am against Tuirkey in Europe and they have a problem with that. But then, the same people are in favour of waging war against Iraq and killing 600,000 people. The West is a strange place. You cannot be anti-immigrant, anti-Turkish or even anti-Muslim veil. But, you can be in favour of bombing another country. And then, the same people who don't care about 600,000 Iraqis blame me because I am a racist.
