>>+1 for not calling them "migrants" ...
IMHO Cameron has a point: rather than receiving and trying to cope with hundreds of thousands of displaced Syrians, save a heap of grief and $$$$ by doing whatever it takes to clean up the mess in Syria so people can go home. Example: Germany's Labor Minister Andrea Nahles said yesterday that Germany alone will need up to an extra $3.7B next year for benefits and to help these people integrate. Maybe that $ is better spent elsewhere- e.g. paid as bribes to get the culprits in Syria out of the way and a sensible regime in place so people can go home.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
