#1 good. stop helping, send them back and eventually they'll stop coming

people should stop making excuses, mostly they are fleeing poverty not war. The cure for poverty is for those same energetic, enterprising people to put their talents to hard work reforming their leadership so it isn't corrupt "me first, my family/clan/tribe first" attitude. Start putting morals and ethics first, civic society first. Then they can have a functioning country they won't want to leave.
