desperate times call for desperate measures
In adverse circumstances actions that might have been rejected under other circumstances may become the best choice.

Exactly. These videos are shown with zero context. So I went to RTL English and there is a lot going on there in KOS. Locals harassing the refugees, poor Greek resources to deal with the crisis. Greece is in it's own crisis, they don't need to have this on top of it. I think the UN and other EU countries need to get rescue boats in the water between Turkey and Greece and get the refugees to Germany and outwards from there and the US needs to start taking some now also, not 'sometime' in 2016.
Greece should not be expected to deal with this.
I think it would have been best to put them into those camps

It's a FAIL because there is no accurate sourced material, just random youtube videos taken out of context.
That you generalize and label an ENTIRE group of people as "animals" who should be put in camps until they "learn" how to "behave" shows your true racist attitude and bigotry.
For that, I have no further comment to you.

This whole ignorant "all Arabs are dirty animals" by so many people is making me sick.

Greece is part of the EU.
The EU has been involved in bombing campaigns in Africa and the Middle East
Oh so Greece is part of the eu, they haven't done anything as a country, but they are part of the eu so it's justified and expected? Is that the narrative you're pushing?

I don't know that i agree, but i will say that Greece being part of the EU is kind of akin to Illinois or Mississippi being part of the US.
On the other end of the spectrum, Germany estimates that it may shelter as many as 800,000 asylum-seekers this year. The country’s vice chancellor, Sigmar Gabriel, braced the nation for what could be half a million refugees a year for “several years.”

An estimated 340,000 asylum seekers have arrived in Europe so far this year, most braving dangerous sea journeys from North Africa and Turkey.
France said on Monday it would take in 24,000 refugees over the next two years, while about 18,000 people arrived in Germany last weekend alone.

Please explain to me how any of them will end up in the USA.. The only Middle East refugees you guys take end up in guantamino.
