Realisation has dawned on Germany that not all refugees are of Syrian origin. Many of these people are not fleeing war or persecution. Some are not even Arab, says Angela Merkel's government. Thirty per cent of people that Berlin welcomed have lied to enter Europe and avail benefits, claim authorities. Some even have fake passports. Are there extremist wolves in their midst waiting to strike at Europe's heartland? Is it time to raise the red flag? Lone wolves or a pack of wolves sent in by terror groups like Daesh should be tracked in this massive movement of people, the largest the world has seen since World War II.
Many refugees deserve sympathy and support, but there are also issues of security that needs to be addressed by countries like Germany that have welcomed people with open arms.
As part of measures to streamlime the intake of people, three Balkan countries have been declared "safe" states of origin. Cash payments have also been cut to migrants. Germany has not been able to convince all of the continent, particularly Eastern Europe, but is putting in place regulations as part of a safety net.
A relocation plan for refugees at entry points in Europe could bring things under control. Robust facilities will be created to receive, assist, register and screen people. Backgrounds will be checked, and people with a violent past should be shown the door.
Europe has become a safe haven for refugees. It is their destination of choice. To keep it that way, Germany and the other EU nations have to ensure extremist elements are not allowed to sneak in.
