I think it's important to realize that both sides of the coin will lie about the situation in order to gain support. One will cause guilt, the other will monger fear. Whatever truth fits your agenda conveniently will be used and the rest ignored. Who cares about the peaceful ones? When have peaceful immigrants and refugees going about their daily lives ever made the news? Meanwhile, while the two sides duke it out, there is still a very real war going on and a very real refugee crisis. What is the best way of going about this? How can we avoid making a mockery of a critical situation? And when can both sides stop focusing on these events as a way to gain political support, and start realizing it is a very real crisis?
