At some point in time the US Navy has to get involved to turn the ships back to their ports of origin. The Mediterranean Sea is vital for commerce throughout Europe. The merchant ships are governed by different laws and mostly of compassion. The European shipping routes can't end up like Somalia.
Sending the ships back to their ports of origin is the only answer otherwise there will be violence at the Hungarian border. Such disturbance is exactly what will unhinge violence all the way back to Syria. Turkey needs to close it's borders.
NATO is going to have to start thinking about sending units to places that might explode. Consider it a definite possibility.
Europe has to have a chance to evaluate the people within the migration. Just wanting a better quality of life is not the need for survival.
There is nothing saying the borders can't be open at some point in the future, but, this is dangerous for everyone. Those within the migration and the countries receiving them are in danger for many reasons.
The sooner the push back against the migration, the sooner it will stop.

Libya’s internationally-recognized government, (click here) based in the eastern region of the country, may consider stopping oil loadings by companies that are not cooperating with the management it has appointed for the state-run National Oil Corp, an oil official said.
“We are warning the international companies against dealing with the illegal management,” said Nagi Elmagrabi, the chairman of the NOC management based in eastern Libya, in comments to reporters in Malta. “Legal proceedings” will be first considered against these companies and, as a last resort, their loadings from the eastern region may be blocked, he said, without identifying them.
Tribal and political disputes have almost completely halted onshore crude production in the western region, where an administration backed by moderate Islamist militias has held sway since last year. Libya’s internationally recognized government operates from al-Bayda in the east where some oil continues to be exported....
The US Navy was very successful in ending the pirating of oil out of eastern Libya. It's the Mediterranean Sea. It cannot be dysfunctional. The shipping channels have to be cleared of any rouge ships that are involved in the migration. The ships have to be controlled in their involvement. They can't simply take money or whatever is being used for currency and place migrant lives at risk.

In a desperate bid to seek a better life in Europe, (click here) thousands of refugees and migrants leave the shores of Libya and cross the perilous Mediterranean Sea every month. Over 2,000 people have died making the journey in 2015 alone.
The routes to and journey through Libya are also dangerous, however, and since the fall of Muammar Qaddafi in 2011, the country has struggled to achieve and maintain stability. Porous desert borders, rival fighters, and weak governance have left much of Libya in complete chaos.
With militias controlling large swathes of land, their attentions have turned to the people that cross their territories. The fighters assert they are bringing order to the country as they detain the refugees, yet these people's lives have become valuable commodities to the militias as they try to solidify their positions in the country....
There are people from Libya in the migration. Entire countries cannot empty into Europe. The countries of origin need humanitarian aid.
The USA was very successful in dropping shipments of supplies into Afghanistan with messages to help them understand their world. NATO needs to respond in an effective way that stops the hysteria of the migrants.
If nations of people want a better quality of life they need to stop killing each other and make their countries functional with an economy that works toward their advantage within sovereign borders. Any leaflets to migrants have to have that lesson. It makes no sense. People are trying to get to Europe when they don't even have enough backbone to end jihadist regimes.
