Let the other Arab countries take them in. Only Lebanon, I think, has stepped up to the plate.  <snip>

 

Lebanon, UAE, KSA, Iraq, Jordon & Egypt all have significant Arab Muslim refugee / IDP populations.

 

Lebanon - 1.4 million

UAE - 250k

KSA - reports vary upwards of 200k

Jordan - approx 1 million

Syria - 6 million IDPs

Iraq - approx 3 million IDPs, plus 250k Syrian refugees

Turkey - estimated 2.7 million refugees

Egypt - approx 250k

 

A good starting point for info is UNHCR website & refworld.org

The next thing Merkel can dismiss is the concept that these "immigrants" are willing to work for any of the freebies they are sucking out of Germany.  http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/701556/German-Asylum-seekers-refuse-to-work-insisting-We-are-Merkel-s-GUESTS

Easy to see how this mess started. First Merkel bans the German media from reporting on-the-ground realities, forcing them into some Alice in Wonderland PC fairytale. Next, the poor hamstrung German media starts describing these religious slayings as "mental health" issues. Then, poor old Angela believes the nonsense she sees written in the daily rags and on the German telly. Pure farce, and this was always the worry of banning reality from media - it will make some of your population extremely confused!
