Just wait until the costs of all these migrants hits Europes bottom line with the Germans wondering what went wrong. The cost of these migrant hordes will drive down the Euro with countries like Italy and Greece now realising the huge financial costs of being in the front line of the migrant invasion.Europe is now facing a break up and a return to nation states securing their own borders. They can print what they like but it will solve nothing there are too many countries in or near trouble to make the Euro a good long term bet. Germany itself will soon have self inflicted problems to deal with but that is yet to become apparent.A horrible and exquisite stalemate is emerging wherein the EU can go neither forward nor back: the members states do not want and probably will not accept further 'integration' which denies them sovereign control, and they cannot retreat to former 'independence.' The current obstruction come from not really having an independent foreign policy and submitting to the crazy decisions that come out of Washington (and their happy spokesmen in London). The EU has passively conformed to allowing its own Near East to become a social chaos and battlefield for a Holy War, funded by the Saudis and friends, drawing deluded youth from all over to become agents of a neo-barbarism that has culminated in ISIS. Wise diplomats-- if we had had any-- would have kept Ghaddafi and Saddam in place and the economies of Libya and Iraq intact. They really constituted no threat. How ghastly now to have to weep over the desperation of a father who lost his children trying to flee to safety ! Unpleasant as it is in some quarters to hear this message: it is not the Damascus government that tortured the Chief Archaeologist of Palmyra, cut off his head and hung his headless body from a column. Rather, it was that Assad government which nurtured his work for decades and protected Syria's and the world's patrimony.
