I'm sorry for the question, but I'm reading this sort of opinion more and more frequently here:

Do you think the whole world has a right to enter Europe? Isn't this an amazing form of entitlement?

As every European country agrees[1], refugees certainly do have the right to request asylum in Europe. There's nothing "entitled" about fleeing death, violence, and privation.

That's the base case, and the one this blog post seems to be opposed to. More elaborate cases require more discussion, but you'll have to forgive me if I'm not inclined to spend time on that with a throwaway account.
