The final invasion of Europe has begun in earnest. Notice that the middle eastern countries will not even take the "refugees".
Some, maybe, but...

"Saudi Arabia said it has taken in about 2.5 million Syrians on religious and humanitarian grounds in the years since the country's conflict began and has offered residency to hundreds of thousands, as it sought to rebut suggestions that oil-rich Gulf states should do more to address the plight of refugees fleeing civil war."

I saw a news program last night which interviewed Syrian refugees in camps in Lebanon. One family had been there for 2 years now. The father stated that they thought the Syrian crisis would clear up in 4 or 5 months and they could all return home. Now he said it was hopeless and the family was seeking to emigrate to Europe to take his children out of there.

A migration crisis and a complicated mess it is.
