Well, some people believe world leaders are implementing population
control via various means.  War and famine are excellent for that.

Is this really likely?  It's unlikely, but possible, that North
Korea has nuclear weapons.  This is after decades of effort.  How
likely is it that ISIL obtained WMDs?  Even Saddam Hussein apparently
didn't have them ...  But, what is any country with nuclear weapons
going to do to the U.S. or Russia or allies of the U.S. or Russia?
If any country uses such a weapon, they'll be annihilated by either
the U.S. or Russia.  Region-wide genocide.  Both countries have an
abundance of such weapons, and neither will tolerate the use of such
weapons by "terrorist" countries.  If North Korea uses such a weapon
against the U.S., do you think that the U.S. will be concerned that
Russia or China is next door?  No, it won't.  North Korea will be a
hole full of radio active dirt.  The same goes for Iran.  The U.S.
won't be concerned that Russia is it's ally.  It'll be a pile of
radio active glass.  The U.S. will deal with Russia or China after
the fact.

Nitpick.  By "violent ideology," you meant an "ideology which teaches
violence."  I.e., an ideology in and of itself isn't violent even it
if promotes or incites violence.  In the U.S., ideologies are
technically protected speech, like religion, although I'm sure the
U.S. government has likely been violating that since 9/11 in the
name of "safety."  They can't be held accountable.

If they are contained, who do they have to attack other than themselves?

People loose the desire to fight over time.  They want to live and
love and rest and relax and cherish and move on etc.  You have to
be immensely, insanely traumatized to continue to hate and be angry
with an intense focus for long time periods.  If you weren't
directly affected, i.e., follower of a violent/hurt leader, then this
isn't easy as you don't share the anger.  You want something from the
movement, in a timely manner.  When that doesn't come, the followers
are disgruntled, and leave.

There was an article yesterday here that they were now fleeing
camps provided by Germany because the conditions were so deplorable.

How many more are alive because they didn't die as a byproduct of war?

If war has a 30% chance of death, and migrating is less than 2%, the
latter is the better choice.  Life is not without risk.  You can die
from simply eating food or touching animals or falling down, etc.
People must accept some risk of untimely death simply because they
are alive.  Do you want a Nanny-state where the government protects
and controls your every action?  "You can't walk there."
