What about the other four million refugees?

Question

At the moment there are four million Syrian refugees in Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Egypt. It makes sense that these people are the real refugees, the ones who have walked with entire families to the first safe neighbouring country. 
Meanwhile thousands of young Syrian men have hopped onto trains and are making their merry way to the most affluent countries Europe. 
So the questions are: 
1. Is Europe making a big mistake in letting in migrants, because the wars all over Africa and the Middle East mean that about another ten million refugees may not be far behind?
2. Since the migrants to Europe are young men, are they just economic migrants looking for opportunity and free stuff?
3. The real ones in desperate need are the families camped in the desert with inadequate food and shelter and nowhere to go. Shouldn't Europe take them instead? 
4. Or are the European leaders really using this as an opportunity to import fit and educated young men to add to the European workforce as the babyboomers retire?

'Europe needs many more babies to avert a population disaster'

'Across Europe birth rates are tumbling. The net effect is a ‘perfect demographic storm’ that will imperil economic growth across the continent'

'Record numbers of economic migrants and asylum-seekers are seeking to enter the European Union this summer and are risking their lives in the attempt. The paradox is that as police and security forces battle to keep them at bay, a demographic crisis is unfolding across the continent. Europe desperately needs more young people to run its health services, populate its rural areas and look after its elderly because, increasingly, its societies are no longer self-sustaining'

What happens if many of these Syrian refugees and fit young men don't like Europe with its freedom and equality laws and instead want to recreate what they fled from in Syria.

We end up with a minority (that by most if not all expectations will increase in size) that will be at odds with the rest of society.

These "refugees" should be repelled, with deadly force if necessary. This is a full-blown invasion. Islam is at war with the West.

Why would the EU import the destroyers of their own lands?  Who wants to import trouble-making vagrants with no papers and no train tickets   - that's a crime ?

Europe should take none at all. It's not our problem.
