Over time, the movement of populations is perfectly normal and natural. When the nimby's understand that, it becomes easier to deal with it.

Mass rapid migrations are difficult for all concerned. Just try to understand the reasons behind it and make the experience a positive one, instead of imagining the worst possible scenario in every case.
Comparing migration from 1815/1932 to 2015 is idiotic.
To ignore the history of diaspora and the resons behind it is equally foolish. Will you be castigating the Germans for their pragmatism, or congratulating the Turks for their geographical prescience?
