The Christian Democratic-led caucus, which counts German Chancellor Angela Merkel as a party member, drew a clear distinction between refugees fleeing conflicts in places such as Syria and migrants leaving their home countries to find better opportunities and jobs.

On social media this week, wedged between selfies and posts about breakfast, are extremely graphic images of dead Syrian refugee children, their bodies washed ashore. One image in particular, of a tiny boy, has sparked an ethical debate: Does this go too far, or is it something people need to see?
