Can't even imagine.

Here is the deck view of where I pigged out on baby back ribs and beer. Obviously I didn't take it for granted but holy shit am I lucky in comparison.

Thanks.

MAYBE the few tent structures on the bottom of the photo. But there is NO WAY that the entire solid structures in this photo is a total camp.

Also look at all the pathways. There is naybe 5 to 10 people on each entire stretch? Something is fishy about how this photo is portrayed.

"Mafraq is the capital city of Mafraq Governorate in Jordan, located 80 km to the north from the capital Amman in crossroad to Syria to the north and Iraq to the east. It has 58,954 inhabitants"

58,954 seems about right for the size of the area. It looks like they just took a picture of a city and tried to camouflage it as the refugee camp.

I could be wrong but that's what it looks like to me.

i doubt there's running water in those builings

it's clearly a camp, a large one

[Paul Markham]

Camps are the only solution. Build them to accommodate refugees and get oil rich Arabs to contribute to the costs.

Remove all possibility of work.

Or keep the situation as it is and see 1,000,000 arrive in Europe per year. Until the Right Wing gain control.

[j3rkules]

Just wow.

[AntonMG]

Just wow.

My thoughts exactly

[MetaMan]

How is it "clearly a camp"? When someone just posted that it was a city?

whatever you may think about Arabs their cities do have pawed roads with traffic lights and signs and they do have schools, hospitals, stores, hotels and - of course - mosques

and how exactly from the original photo can you tell if there is no schools, hospitals, stores, hotels and mosques?

Are you going to tell me every corner of Jordan has a grand mosque built that you can see from miles?

Yes, how did you know?

White people need to be exterminated. How dare some of them try to preserve their cultures. Shame on them. Preserving cultures is only important for other races.

Refugees are always unwanted people -- just hope you are never one

I'm not if anyone else noticed, but that man has a foot in his ass...

The map clearly labels it as the Al Zataari refugee camp on the outskirts of Mafraq...

[dyna mo]

doesn't look that much different from Amman. looks like they have a good start on a new city and room for plenty more syrians.

good for them.

The link was to the Al Zaatari Refugee Camp in the photo. I wrote Al Mafraq as it's the nearest proper location (it is about 6 miles west-northwest of where I linked to and an actual city)

If you zoom in you can see a lot of the structures in the camp have got a pitched roof which would be consistent with them being tents as most proper buildings in the Arab region have a flat roof.

And they are running out of food.

[VikingMan]

If that was a camp full of present day Americans they would be at each other's throats within one day.

Looks oddly like a scene from the movie Area 9 or what ever that was.

Thanks for sharing your family videos with gfy!

This is insane.... Millions of people have become refugees.

This is going to become a massive problem for mankind in the next decade.
