You recognize your bias! Now if you see how that makes you say things like everyone from a certain country is a "savage" or how the refugees have nothing to add to the west so they should assimilate completely.
Oh...to dream.
I don't really see assimilate into and add to as being at all mutually exclusive. In fact, the best way to add something to a country is to become part of it and adopt its way of life. Unless you're moving to some kind of Fascist nation, you don't have to leave your culture behind.
Hey, it's rough being a Muslim refugee. No denying that. Obviously, not all Muslims are terrorists, but being wary of them is not the fault of the innocent people being targeted and killed by them. They wear the face of the enemy. And the enemy is vile. It's as simple as that.
