2013-03-20 Wall Street Journal:Syrians Find No Refuge in Greece

[jopparai]

Tämäkin lehti näköjään mokuttaa.
Tarinaa Mohamed Simosta. Pientä epäloogisuutta. Opiskeli Malesiassa, mutta ei halunnut pakolaisleirille, joten maksoi salakuljettajille matkan Turkista Eurooppaan???

Mohamed Simo, a 28-year-old Web designer from Aleppo, Syria, wanted to avoid the limbo of refugee camps of Turkey and Jordan, so he paid smugglers to bring him to Europe. After what he said was a harrowing journey from Turkey in a sinking plastic boat on a cold February night, he washed up in this tourist haven and was detained by local police.

Mr. Simo, the Syrian web designer, believed the trip would be worth the risk. He was finishing a master's degree in Malaysia, he said, when regime rockets flattened his family home in Aleppo. While some family members fled to sprawling refugee camps just over Syria's border, Mr. Simo saw a brighter future in Europe. "The refugee camp is like a big jail," he said.
