That last paragraph was well reasoned and dispassionate as far as I can see.

Watching those regular German citizens lining up to celebrate those new refugees was a heartwarming and uplifting experience, Chris.

Granted humanitarian actions need to be taken and seem to be increasing. But if all that is done is move the people somewhere else without addressing the underlining causes. Will only increase the problems as a result.

The chance of the refugees feeling out of place, language customs weather food freedoms all being different. Will increase tensions until a growth in nationalistic patriotic or religious movements cause unrest.

There is no easy way to get to the bottom of this. But fixing the root causes in the Middle East would go a long way.

Agreed, we've tried 'Shock and Awe' before and look where that led us.

Fun fact. The USA is financing those huge refugee tent cities in Jordan under the auspices of the UN.

So far "Nation Building" has no lasting foundations being built!

Just one more thing.

My mother is a refugee. In January 1945 she escaped to Denmark, threatened being raped and killed by Soviet soldiers. She was on the "Wilhelm Gustloff", the ship with some 6000 refugees on board. The ship sunk and she almost drowned. She was 16 years old back then. I am glad that she had arrived at last in Denmark and survived.
