Because you can travel to a country and ask in person to become a citizen if you want to.
Because you're free to make the application without having to worry about your house being bombed, your street gassed, you and your family dragged out of the house in the middle of the night, never to be seen again.
Because you're not at risk of being put in an "education centre"
Because you're not going to be killed for having the wrong religion or political beliefs.
Because Jack, you're safe.
