From various news reports, it's my impression that the majority of migrants both to the USA and across Europe tend to be young, unaccompanied men ( = "of military age.") This should not be surprising when you look at the demographics of the places these invaders, pardon me, "refugees" originate. In the best of times, young unemployed men are a social problem: Remember the old saying "Idle hands are the Devil's workshop?" I'll leave the question of whether The Prince of Darkness really exists, but it's a fact that surplus population of any type is bad news, and young males are the worst. Also, from the exporting country's point of view, it's win-win to have the excess population offloaded elsewhere.

And guess who remits billions of dollars back to their home countries (and families that remained behind)? The most employable - i.e., young, healthy men. At the same time, I am loath to ignore the stark, even dire, warnings from men like former SEAL Matt Bracken and former Special Operator Michael Yon. Matt's books were written long enough ago that they seem eerily prescient, even predictive.

And Yon has recently been pointing out the numbers of these unaccompanied military age men who are from mainland China. Remember that awful movie Red Dawn? The story line fits.
