The problem is an old one: how many "strangers" can a society digest? Especially in Europe with it’s internal open borders concept immigration is still a problem - and especially Britain - with it’s colonial history - has currently a hard time dealing with all the immigrants.

Britain has seen in recent years a huge influx of Polish workers - and the Asian communities (read mostly Pakistanis - like the London Bombers) have been exploding as well.

Still Europe is struggling to decide what to with all the African boat people and recent wave or Iraqi illegal immigrants crossing it’s many borders.

And there is still the Muslim question: many Europeans feel that it’s immigrated and homegrown Muslims don’t appreciate the humanistic, secular and democratic ideas on which Europe is built.

Borders are not a human invention, but natures. All kind of animals mark and defend their territory against their own and other species. Just ask your own pets.

But it’s time for the human race to transcend borders and the idea of the Nationstate altogether. The flow of people, ideas and goods should be free. That was one of the basic ideas behind the European Union - and still is.

Crossing borders has become much easier in the last 100 years, but there are still too many walls and fences up. And we still have some nations totally isolated from the global community. But the number of international trade and travel agreements are slowly growing and the openness is expanding.

Let’s hope that in 100 or 200 years most borders only exist on paper.
