Once these Syrian refugees crossed into Turkey
They were no longer in a war zone. Their need to seek asylum was no longer necessary. Why did they then get onto boats and cross
Over to Europe.

Turkey is a Muslim country from what I've read. Why come to a predominantly
Christian Europe. We all know the Muslims have no tolerance for Christian beliefs.
They are economic migrants not asylum seekers.

I do however feel sad when I see the little children in this situation?
Would Arab nations ever tolerate, 100s of thousands of Europeans arriving
In their countries. Especially Christian ones. Ditto. Africa or India.

How do you know?

In Syria, amongst the strongest supporters of the Syrian government, led by Alawite Muslim President Bashar al-Assad, is the Syrian Christian community. Many of those Syrians still speak Aramaic, the language spoken by Jesus Christ.

In fact, some ostensible Muslims do murder these Syrian Christians as well as other Muslims in Syria. These are the terrorists, armed and paid for by the United States, France and their regional allies including Turkey and the dictatorships of Saudi Arabia and Qatar. These Christians are defended against these 'Muslim' terrorists by the Muslims of the Syrian Arab Army.

This whole drama comes from the same idiots who brought you the "Colour Revolutions", "Occupy" and the "Arab Spring", unnamed sources in Austrai intelligence have been quoted as saying that U.S NGO's have been organising the boats in Libya and paying the crews.

Should read Austrian intelligence,sorry, no link, the page is suspect.
"An anonymous employee from the Austrian Defense Office, which is operated by the Austrian Federal Ministry of Defense, says that some groups in the USA are paying smugglers to get more African and Middle Eastern immigrants into Europe. “Traffickers demand exorbitant sums to bring refugees to Europe illegally. The conditions are often very poor, but still a transport does currently cost 7000-14000 Euro…” the Austrian Defense Office employee told Info-Direkt.at.

“There are insights that organizations from the US have created a co-financing model and contribute substantial amounts to trafficker’s costs. Not every refugee from North Africa has 11,000 euros in cash. Nobody asks where the money comes from.”

The employee said that there was a “strict news blackout” on how the African and Middle Eastern immigrants were able to pay the traffickers fees.

Here's a few readers reactions taken from
The Age newspaper, Saturday September 5th, 2015:

1) We should favour beds over bombs.
It's time Australia opened its doors.

2) Mr Abbott, how many adults and children,
Syrian and others, do you think will soon be
fleeing Australian bombs?

3) Julie Bishop opposes dropping food
into Syria because its indiscriminate
but dropping bombs isn't?
Sort that one out.

4) Hopefully, George Bush, Tony Blair, and
John Howard will be re-incarnated as refugees.

5) Abbott should look at our treatment of refugees
when he talks about covering up evil.
We're still not allowed to know.

6) Those little shoes.

Finally in The Age Editorial on Saturday, we're told:

"...the threats to humanity do not stop at national
borders. And through trade agreements and in
international forums and organisations, we have reached out
to the world. That is why it is so disappointing, and
reflects so badly on our nation, that our recent and current
governments have treated asylum seekers so appallingly.
As founding signatories to the United Nations refugee
convention, Australia has a legal obligation to over-turn a
policy that should never have existed. We clearly have a
moral obligation. And, again,
it is in our enlightened self-interest to do so,
if we help those in need in the bad times, we will be
seen and treated as global leaders, giving us much more
ability to influence events beyond our borders."

"The Age would like to appeal to the goodness that clearly
drives our communities, and to the people we elect to make laws,
to seize this moment to emerge from a sad and shameful
chapter of our modern history. We can and should increase our
humanitarian intake of asylum seekers and we can and should
work with other nations, particularly in our region, to set up
a system to process such people quickly and kindly. We can and
should use the image of Aylan Kurdi's death to show the
world we are truly decent and strong."
