These deportations and arrest will likely give critics support for not admitting anymore refugees into South Korea:

Six migrant workers have been deported this year over allegations they supported international terrorist groups.
This followed a joint operation by South Korea’s top law enforcers.
Police, prosecutors, the national intelligence service and the justice ministry discovered evidence that the suspects endorsed the terrorist groups “beyond curiosity” and shared information about them with others.
The information came to light in a report revealed during the national anti-terror committee’s regular meeting at the Seoul Government Complex on Monday. Prime Minister Lee Nak-yon presided over it.
Another report said a Syrian migrant worker was arrested in Incheon for inciting co-workers to join extreme Islamic terrorist group ISIS. The Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency’s international criminal investigation bureau arrested the man, 33, for showing ISIS promotional video clips to the workers and encouraging them to join it. The authority sent his case to prosecutors early this month. [Korea Times]
You can read the rest at the link, but a flood of Muslim refugees into Jeju Island from mostly Yemen has caused terrorism fears to grow in South Korea in recent months.
The Islamaboos will not comment with anything intelligent.
MTB, bless his heart, could only come up with a personal story that he met a nice Muslim once. Surviving friends and relatives of about 3000 people on September 12, 2001 have opposite stories… so much for opinion. Better to turn to sciency stuff like statistics to form an idea of the best action. That ends that argument.
Johnhenry ran away with his burka tucked between his legs. The best he could do was yell bigot a couple of times. His push for Korea to let more Muslims in seems it will fail… so it looks like he will have to travel to the Islamic world to get his little boys dressed up as little girls.
Nobody else all hot in the ass for more Islam in their lives dared to comment… or they wisely considered the evidence and decided Korea is better off without an Islamic parallel society.
Everybody else displayed apathy… which is exaclty how the barbarians overran the civilized gates throughout a great deal of history.
Oh well.
Korea is wise to all this crap and doesn’t easily bend to international pressure that does not have Korea’s interests in mind.
So looks like there just needs to be about 500 deportation orders and everything can return to business as usual…
…once johnhenry brushes the bitter salt of dried tears off his face.

I think they made their feelings clear November of 2016.

Nah, CH. See, this was done using a technique known as “The Right Way.”
First, a crime is planned or committed.
Then the criminal is arrested, tried and thrown into or under the jail.
Pre-crime is BS. Or do you prefer some power mad MP deciding which bars are good, and which ones present poor moral turpitude, and should be shut down for the general good?

MTB, I see your idea… but I do not agree.
There is no moral or ethical obligation for a functioning group to admit dysfunctional members who have opposing values.
Nobody is being “punished” for pre-crime… or even accused of a crime. They are simply denied doing something they want to do which they have no right to do… a fundamental management principle in everything from civilization to good parenting.
Not admitting “refugees” who hold values counter to much of what Korea is striving for, which have a better global track record for disruption than assimilation, and which have a statistically significant probability of danger, is not “punishment”. It is Korea fulfilling its ethical duty to protect the interests of its citizens.
With your logic, a beggar is punished every time you don’t hand him twenty bucks.
Also, your MP/bar analogy is cute… but flawed. If a BJ bar opens right inside the main gate, the MPs can certainly deny its operation… just like Korea can, and should, deny Islamic “refugees” from setting up shop on Korean soil. What happens outside the gate, or off Korean soil, is not the business of MPs or Korea.
I recognize your desire to virtue signal by standing up for Islamic refugees… but, again, there is absolutely NO good they bring to Korea… and Korea’s ethical duty is to Koreans above all.
If you truly want to help Islamic “refugees”, loudly advocate for them to be helped in place… where money goes a lot further and they can quickly bring the disorder of their home nations under control rather than lazily fleeing with their chronically dependent hands out while solving no problems in their home country.
Until then, you are more interested in disrupting Korea with an endless stream of needless dependents than helping people who can best solves the actual problems.
Does MTB lock his house or car? Does he use a password on his phone or PC? Just curious where one draws the line when doing this. Should the payments to support these waygooks be voluntary or ripped from all Korean taxpayers at the point of a gun?
1. What external, objective, fixed point of reference does MTB use for his morality?
2. Why does MTB believe Muslims must be paid to immigrate to South Korea, specifically, as opposed to another Muslim country closer to their homeland in distance, culture, and climate?
“Compassion” is an evasive non-answer, especially without defining #1. We need to see how this morality is applied by other people elsewhere.

Oh, I never ever said Muslims should be paid to move to South Korea, unless they’re being hired for a specific job! Your words, do not put them in my mouth.
I’ve often wondered why Muslims don’t take in other Muslims. They share the same culture, religion, and in many places the same language. Since the Koran is taught in Arabic (much like the Torah is taught in Hebrew), everyone has at least a basic understanding of the same tongue. It would make a lot more sense to have them move to a place closer to their own climate and cultural attitudes.
But I also ask that if 18 of 19 terrorists came from Saudi Arabia, with one from the U.A.E, why did we roll in guns ablazing into Iraq? Afghanistan made sense since the 9/11 terrorists were dispatched from there, but Iraq wasn’t a part of the A-Q organization. Saying A-Q and Iraq in the same sentence doesn’t make them allies.
Yes, we’re better off without Saddam, but there’s a long list of dictators the world would be better off without. What’s the pick and choose process? Who decides, and what are their guidelines?
How many do we have to kill until they love us? We killed a lot of Japanese, and now they love us. We seem to have reached the crossover point there.
Should we pop off a couple nukes? Where would be most effective? Will that calm the ants’ nest we’ve stirred up?

You have lost the plot, MTB.
Back on topic, please.
Never let any jihadist into the country.
