Millions of people fleeing horrific wars, mostly in four or five countries. Huge tragedy and a colossal mistake not to manage this well.

Letting millions pile up in poor, mostly small neighboring countries is not a tenable solution. Neither is treating this like whack-a-mole.

We celebrate heroes who save people fleeing war—long after they're dead. Now, we're acting like the villains in those heroism movies.

It's 2016 and about a 1,000 people have just died in two days in the Mediterranean trying to flee wars & unbearable conditions. Barely news.

Worst: The refugee tragedy—and the underlying horrible wars fuel it—are so huge that this cruel game of whack-a-mole won't make a dent.

The international community's response to the refugee tragedy is cruel, ineffective and is just making the consequences worse for all.
