Well, the Greeks are finally getting some relief from the refugee onslaught: Turkey has finally accepted its role as screener refugees from Syria, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and other sandy places. While Turkey will accept that role, the West (Europe must accept at least 70,000 more refugees. Of course, Turkey received 6.5 billion Euros to aid its own efforts(bribery/desperation). The smugglers, those able businessmen/enablers who "assist" refugees in their quests, will now shift gears and move their operations to that garden spot on the Mediterrenean Coast: Libya. Quite naturally, the new destination will be the Italian islands and ports off the coast of southern Sicily. Already this past week, over 2000 refugees were picked up at sea on their way.

It doesn't appear that anything will change soon, as more countries in the EU erect fences and other barriers to stem the tide of displaced young men fleeing military service in their respective homelands. Can they be assimilated? NO, not really. Can they find jobs? No, not really. Is there a future for them in Europe? No, not really. (See Belgium, France, Spain, Italy, Bulgaria, Sweden, Netherlands, Poland, and of course, the largest country in the world, Russya.
