The problem will if at all, only fixed by muslims itself, after the whole idea of islamic fundamentalism (and the myriad of other issues) runs itself dead by whatever reasons and circumtances. Western intervention (Iraq-War) to "fix" made it for sure worse.

That's cool. Still doesn't excuse not letting a lot of people in because of the possibility of a few "bad apples." Let's not bother with school because school has some bullies. Let's not bother hiring new workers because somebody's going to be a lazy bum.

Apples also don't perpetuate the shitty behaviors that further inflame the sectarianism or ethnic tensions that led them to flee their country in the first place. I consider that part to be fucking disgusting.

Have you never heard that bad apples spoil the bunch? It's literally true. When an apple goes bad it releases chemicals that cause others to go bad as well.

Injection would be noticeable. So the only way to poison them would be some type of spray, and that'd just make all the apples bad, and also get anyone who handled them or the basket. :p

Life's literally full of risks - I can die just by crossing the street. It doesn't mean I don't stop crossing the street, it means I learn how to look for any incoming cars and see if the little orb on the stoplight is green or not. I'm not going to risk the lives of millions just because a couple dozen seem dangerous.

See? I can make metaphors too.

Despite the best efforts of our local Green party, the country I live in is still known as Germany for the time being.

You can blame the EU for not asserting itself in the distribution of immigrants across Europe relative to the population of the country. With populous countries like Hungary and Poland opting out entirely it's no wonder the rest of the EU is faced with a heavier burden, Germany and Great Britain in particular. Blame these countries and EU's lacking assertiveness, not the migrants or immigration itself. Immigration can be done and managed right or fucked up.

The best way to prevent a refugee crisis like this is not participating with and sanctioning the United States for its imperialist wars in Middle East and North Africa. It's America which should carry the burden for the most part anyway firstly for causing it in the first place and secondly due to being able to take in larger amounts of refugees than any European nation. It should not be the responsibility of Europe primarily but secondarily due to its contribution to America's wars.
