Also sickened by camerons decision to release months old news about a syrian air strike, which was contrary to a commons vote, straight after the events of the weekend, to avoid criticism. Stinks of labour slimy tactics on releasing bad news on the back of worse news.
Technically I think the vote was whether to bomb Assad, but the drone strike was against ISIL who are Assad's enemy. Which has a certain irony.
Frankly that we can bomb ISIL in Iraq but not Syria is crazy as the borders now mean nothing.

If in doubt, bomb them.

Why do they throw away the food/water/aid they are given?
A lot of people have managed not to do all their money on smugglers and can afford basic things themselves still.
It's a form of protest when the authorities are handing it out and what gets televised on the news. They don't want food and water, they want safety and respect.
Also, they are leaving it so others behind can take it who will come along shortly. Aid comes in massive bundles once or twice a day when the stream of people is constant.

Why has Germany closed it's borders to migrants? People are still dying right?

Think we are going to have to feel sorry for Hungary again soon.
Don't worry, Nicola Sturgeon last week pledged one million pounds and to take 1000. That was after David Cameron's response drove her to tears.
David Milliband on the TV this morning saying the UK response to the crisis on the ground has been exemplary, but days we should be taking 25000 over next year/year and a half.
He is the new labour leader, right? Seems to understand stuff and everything.

Corbyn seems to have taken over the newspaper headlines, but the suffering & misery goes on for the refugees.

The way of the internet age Tikay.
Crisis happens. People jump up and down on the internet and demand something must be done. People sign online petitions. People even defriend people on facebook.
Next week. Next topic.

Exactly that, & I'm as guilty as anyone. I just suddenly realised that it had dropped off the front pages & tv headlines, & Mr Corbyn is now the hot topic.
Strange times.
Some of those scenes in Hungary & Germany are heartbreaking. When they have children in their arms, it really makes you think.
In the thread about the BA flight that caught fire in Vegas, two blondes (both with children), commented that if they were trying to exit the 'plane & some bugger got in their way faffing about with hand luggage, they might just deck the bloke. It does not bear thinking about how these Syrian refugees with children must feel. God forbid.
(All badly explained, but you'll get the drift).

Yeah - I don't think it's fallen off the radar as badly as some topics in the printed press. The paper today had a double page spread on Corbyn's first PMQs but then 4 pages of updataes on the refugee crisis straight behind it.
I just find on the internet - not so much forums, but twitter/facebook type platforms the hot topic of the day will change weekly and old subjects get forgotten very quickly. It all seems empty ranting to me.

One day we, (and by we I mean our representatives and heads of state) will say, 'My God, how did we let it happen?'

To quote your own linked article:
'He only wanted to go to Europe for the sake of his children,' said Suleiman Kurdi, an uncle of the grieving father. 'Now that they're dead, he wants to stay here in Kobane next to them.'
