Cerhob, its seems reality is just too confronting for some people.
Well that harsh reality includes the almost non-coverage by Australia's media of what has been happening for about two years now - wherein people like me have relied on sources such as Al Jazeerah and The Washington Post for information.
The harsh reality is that people forced from their homelands are called refugees and regardless as to how they got there, millions of Syrians have fled to other Middle East countries including Lebanon, Turkey and Egypt.
The harsh reality is that following the invasion of Iraq by the Coalition of the Willing; the Middle East is a blood bath and our resolve has been to send in even more fighter jets to bomb Iraq and Syria back to the Stone Age - a tactic that has been counter-productive for 12 years is being touted as a solution. What a sickening joke that is!
And what about the apparent alliance between Assad's genocidal regime, Russia and Iran that has been responsible for the deaths of about 240,000 Syrians thus far - oh, that one's in the way too hard basket.

Geez lapdog who proclaims to have perspective.
Anyone would think by your postings that the ME has always been a bastion of peace.
I wonder why we took in so many Christian lebonese in the 70's. I suppose it was the "coalition of the willing's" fault hey?
There seems to be a certain religion that pokes it's ugly head up which thrives on barbarism, death and wars. And peace and tolerance is just not in their DNA.
