The (((US))) is the one orchestrating regime change throughout the ME. At least until very recently. God bless Trump!
That’s because the EU and UN are paper tigers. And personally I’m glad Trump is moving us out of the ME.

EU is not a paper tiger as long as they have UK and France.

Even without an EU, those two will operate together on most things, for the near future, anyway.

Their armed forces are still very good.

Is he wrong though?

No - that's why it's snarky.
Why can't they go to countries that are closer to them than go to the US, or outside of their region?

The only thing keeping the EU together right now is Germany. France is in no condition to help and The UK is done.

Speaking of borders,

EU may need rules to stop doctors emigrating: German minister
Holy shit, those things can work both ways?

Come with me, Herr Doktor. You have more work to do.

They do.
Turkey 3.5 million
Lebanon 2.2 million (2015 data)
Jordan 1.2 million (2015)

USA 16.2 thousand
Out of how many?

And it’s not the place of the US to be a holding place for other countries because they screwed up.

We if they can’t take care of themselves, it’s time for the UN to get involved.
You could easily have googled that yourself, but:

Turkey: 79,8 million total population
Lebanon: 6,8 million
Jordan: 9,7 million

So, for Lebanon that would be some four million (or less, given the half a million or so Palestinian refugees they've also housed for decades now) native population.
Fame is not flattery. Respect is not agreement.

I thought he meant how many total refugees.
I figured he could look it up himself if he really wants to know.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.
