What do refugees have to do with illegal immigration?
When illegals are given refugee status, plenty. Regardless of official status, they have more in common than not. That discussion isn't going to solve the immediate crisis though. We need to help these current refugees take their countries back. It's not right that they are having to flee.

Gee, you'd better write a letter to the U.N.. They should be informed immediately!

While what is happening in Syria is absolutely horrible, Syria needs to be livable for Syrians. The West cannot continue accepting refugees and immigrants from Muslim lands without strict controls and proper assimilation.
You are dead right. Europe and America cannot "save the world." The times make me worry what would happen without the western world saving everyone else. It seems like no one is fending for themselves anymore and the west has become a crutch for everyone else.

Except you're forgetting our invasion of Iraq and our other intrusive endeavors in the middle east gave ISIS the foundation to grow as it did. If we help cause the problems, yes, we should help fix them.
This recent report on asylum statistics suggests that the there is a much higher percentage of male applicants.
"The distribution of asylum applicants by sex shows that men were more likely than women to seek asylum. Across the EU-28, the gender distribution was most balanced for asylum applicants aged less than 14, where boys accounted for 53 % of the total number of applications in 2014. There was a greater degree of gender inequality for asylum applicants aged 14–17 or 18–34, where around three quarters of applicants were male. Female applicants outnumbered male applicants for asylum seekers aged 65 and over, although this group was relatively small, accounting for just 0.8 % of the total number of applications in 2014.
The gender difference was even more apparent when considering unaccompanied minors, as 86 % of asylum applicants in the EU-28 in 2014 that were unaccompanied minors were male, compared with 54 % for accompanied minors."
