case in point. it's hard enough for these refugees to assimilate into turkey, their muslim next door neighbors due to ethnic tensions. that only makes the prospect of europe or america taking on the burden even more dismal.

You really don't get it do you, just how democratic by the standards of the western world do you think Turkey is? I've been to Turkey and it's an interesting country but democratic it certainly isn't and it's no wonder nobody wants them in the EU.

You're again making the mistake of thinking that immigrants should only be moving to countries where they are culturally similar and the article that you've used actually defeats your own viewpoint.

The problem with this vein of thought, is that the whole process of immigration becomes limited if people are restricted on where they go due to cultural likeness. I guess you're the type of guy that likes putting things into boxes.

Finally and most importantly, where should these Latin American, African and Middle Eastern immigrants and refugees be going to, based on your logic of easier cultural assimilation?
