This is an opinion piece and of course speculation but it’s worth reading as IMO it is not out of the realm of possibility. I also agree that there isn't the political will to do anything that could stop this, therefore in the not too far distant future this scenario is quite realistic.

As mass migration pressures on Europe grow, a Washington think-tank predicts that it will take an army of 450,000 to have any chance of ending the seismic turbulence in the Middle East.

In the absence of such an effort — for which he admits the political will does not exist on either side of the Atlantic, and is unlikely to do so in the future — he believes that the tidal wave of migration to Europe from the Middle East and Africa will continue, with consequences much greater and graver than any national leader has yet acknowledged.
