I agree that this is an issue to be watched.

Syrians have displaced Pakistanis as the largest illegal migrant group. Syrians are making their way into Turkey, and even Trying to get I to Australia. Australia has taken a hard line, not popular with all.

Turks are moving to Greece.
Africans and others to Europe.
Other problems around The Indian Ocean.
Dominican Republic is getting tough on Hatians.

I don't see this easing up soon.

This I think has several prominent reasons. One though is that some countries are just not viable anymore for it's inhabitants so they have to move. Now whether that is to be termed forced or not the result is the same. All in all though sign of troubled times.
