Five million refugees now in Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq, some of whom have been there living like animals for years. A similar number are displaced within Syria and many of them would give an eye tooth to get out. This has been a time bomb for years and we have done next to nothing. We can't expect those countries to look after all those people, who are not allowed to work, forever. The Keith-Cameron brigade think that trickling money to keep them in the camps is the answer. Well I don't. It's payback time for the west. We've screwed up their region and seen at least two countries bombed back to the Stone Age. All those people need houses, schools and hospitals, and there is no-one else going to provide them. And we ain't seen nothing yet. Millions more to come from there, and tens of millions more from places such as Bangladesh when rising sea levels (our fault again) flood half their country. Bad times ahead, and we are not ready.
