Four suspected terrorists entered Europe posing as Syrian Refugees, they had a plan to attack Berlin. They were arrested for falsifying documents, German authorities immediately took action and arrested them. The chance of an attack is ever increasing, but German officials are on high alert and doing the best they can to combat ISIS or any other terror group trying to organize attacks.
‘We have repeatedly seen that terrorists have slipped in camouflaged or disguised as refugees. This is a fact that the security agencies are facing," Maassen told ZDF television.

Interesting topic and am glad Anja added her thoughts.
I think this is a hard topic to discuss. As I am from Germany and have seen refugees enter my country and start living a normal life again, I absolutely support them coming to our country and I definitely think that more countries should accept them. I understand that people are afraid of terrorists entering the countries, but even if we wouldn't have the refugee crisis they would still find a way to attack cities and come. I also think that many people are against them just because they are not educated enough about the people coming, these refugees are NOT terrorists it is actually the exact opposite of it: They are trying to escape from terrorists and the wars in their countries. The refugees that I met are some of the most thankful and awesome people I was ever able to meet, although they've been through hell they are still happy and for the most part try to adapt to our culture. So what I just wanted to say with this is that many people should think about their opinion on accepting refugees into their country.
I can see where you coming from, most of them are all good people who are trying to escape from terrorists themselves. Although, I really don't think I would be comfortable knowing that there was a chance a few of them were terrorists and could use this as a disguise. Having the mentality that a terrorist attack probably will eventually happen anyway is not the right way to look at it in my opinion. I think a country has to do everything to protect it's people first, but that's just my opinion.
That really depends solely on them, but I still would just with stricter rule set up and background checks just to be safe. Again I will say the same thing so it's best not to practically ask the same thing.
I agree, I think they should do everything they can to make sure the refugees are good people, and not falsifying information like these people did.
I don't think they should continue because it is very dangerous. I don't think any country should except refugees at this point.
I can somewhat agree, but it is a sad situation because there are so many people in bad situations, it's a touchy issue.
