Agreed, these countries have to have an absolute bastard in control to stop other absolute bastards tying to take power. We should leave them alone until they threaten us.

of course the solution cannot be to move 19 million Syrians to Europe but what would make actually sense would be supporting countries like Turkey, Lebanon etc financially so they can deal better with the refugees locally.
Lebanon has 4.5 million people and has taken so far more than 1 million refugees from Syria - and Lebanon is really not a rich country

Assuming the other countries want them.

EU has 500 million people, is rich, and people are turning into Nazis over not even a million refugees (while we sit comfortably at home and watch how more bombs are thrown, people getting beheaded, women getting raped and so on)

That wealth will now have to be shared with all those who choose to come, making you and I poorer. Until the right wing gets voted in.
