I am really surprised at the lack of empathy for those Syrian refugees on the part of the US public. During the summer, we were all watching them piled up at the borders of southern Europe and were wishing they could find a way to safety. Only a few weeks later, have we changed our minds so completely that we now see them as an evil army?
We should be practical about this. The Middle East is de-populating, and we can't just tell those people to walk back to Syria. One thing is sure to my way of thinking... if the US and Europe don't provide enough humanitarian support, protection and assistance necessary for those people to integrate into host countries, we will surely encourage growing radicalism in poverty-stricken refugee camps scattered across southern Europe, Turkey and the Middle East. Those people aren't going back to Syria any time soon, they left because they were pretty sure they couldn't live there anymore.
Its certainly not a good idea to feed the Daesh monster with more refugee camps....
