To make changes in the EU, 28 nations all have to agree. Thus, it takes years to negotiate treaties, in the best case scenario.
In regards to the refugee crisis, a number of countries have essentially to her highness, Angela Merkel “Go to hell”.
The average citizen is fed up, even in Germany. And things are about to get worse because a flood of migrants is again pouring into Europe, this time into Italy.
How will Merkel respond this time?
Please consider Europe’s Migrant Crisis is Back with a Vengeance.
In rubber dinghies and ramshackle wooden boats, refugees and migrants have been risking their lives in the Mediterranean this week in one desperate expedition after another. These voyages mock the notion that the EU is in command of the emergency engulfing its southern borders. Since Saturday, the Italian coastguard and other rescuers have saved about 13,000 people trying to make their way from north Africa to Italy.
According to the International Organisation for Migration, more than 106,000 refugees and migrants arrived in Italy between January 1 and August 28. More than 2,700 others died in these months trying to cross the central Mediterranean.
Except in Italy, these unpleasant truths are escaping many Europeans’ attention. Yet the calm is an illusion. The EU’s arrangement with Turkey is fragile and may fall apart before long, especially if European governments backtrack on their never entirely sincere promise to grant visa-free travel to Turks. In any case, large numbers of irregular migrants are arriving once more in Greece, where some 57,000 people are already holed up in miserable camps.
The focus of the refugee emergency has moved from the Greek and Turkish sea lanes to the central Mediterranean with a speed that has far outpaced the EU’s creaky decision-making machinery. Action requires a consensus among all 28 governments, but to varying degrees each sees the crisis through national lenses, paralysing the collective approach that is, in the end, the only method likely to achieve lasting results.
In the feverish pre-election climate of EU states such as Austria, France and the Netherlands, some politicians seek votes by depicting Islam as a menace to national identity.
Not all are on the extreme right. Nicolas Sarkozy, the former French president, is fighting his re-election campaign on soil ploughed for years by Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Front. Viktor Orban, Hungary’s conservative nationalist premier, expects a resounding victory next month in a referendum he has called to reject EU-set refugee resettlement quotas. Elsewhere in central Europe, mainstream political leaders in the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia regard western Europe’s attempts to integrate Muslims into the fabric of national life as a desecration of Christian civilisation.
Germany seemed immune to this kind of venom until Angela Merkel, the Christian Democrat chancellor, threw open its doors a year ago to 1m refugees. However, the rightwing populist, anti-Islamic Alternative for Germany is expected to perform strongly on September 4 in an election in the eastern state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Ahead of this vote, Sigmar Gabriel, the Social Democratic party leader and deputy chancellor, opportunistically criticised Ms Merkel’s refugee policies, causing Peter Tauber, the CDU’s general secretary, to comment that Mr Gabriel’s “shamelessness knows no bounds”.
How Will Merkel Respond?
That’s easy. She will keep repeating “We can do this” until she is forced out of office by voters.

How come migrants never go to places that liberals say are wonderful like Cuba and Venezuela?
No welfare money in cuba and venezuela.
In cuba a doctor earns 30-50 dollars a month and venezuela has no toilet paper and is continually on edge because of food shortages and as a consequence people que for 5 hours to get into the shop so venezuela is now worse than Soviet Union was.
They can go even closer, i.e. Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordania, Iran, UAE, Yemen, Iraq… all of them nice muslim and muslim-friendly countries. Funny they didn’t realise that, isn’t it?
Which liberals, Davie boy? Lets have their names.
Why don’t the Muslims in Saudi, Dubai, etc… care for their Muslim brothers and sisters instead of offloading them onto the infidel Christians?
What would Allah say? Or would he just laugh?
They know there are unstable people and criminal people and ISIS ex-terrorists or ISIS-terrorists among them so they make the sensible choice of not taking them and instead provide just some money for refugee camps.
Europe should act the same way.
Kat, it was a rhetorical question…
Of course the other Muslims over in Sandland realize that the more Muslims from war torn nations exported to the Christian nations – the faster the Christian nations run out of money to support all the indigents PLUS comingling the opposite cultures will destabilize the west and eventually bring us to our knees. So they support all their Muslim brothers and sisters moving to the west as a means to promote jihad.
It’s really so simple it’s stupid. But America has been so dumbed down that nobody can think on their feet anymore. All they know is what they read in the newspapers and hear on the 6 o’clock news, which is all lies.
Allah might say: What do you think we are? Chumps?
Germany has undergone a decades-long pussification process. The people will piss and moan about it privately , but don’y dare sayor publlish anything because you will be arrested. There is plenty of evidence that this was really in the planning stges for years by their “owners”. In October, another step of the process takes place, the transfer of internet oversight begins. Get familiar with block chain technology because that’s where their control ends.
Germans and Japanese – both conquered and occupied nations have very similar public attitudes expressed through willingness to put up with anything the government throws at them. The “shouganai” concept.
They’re prevented from learning their own history and are instead fed the heavily edited Allied interpretation as to why the outcome of WW2 was in everyone’s best interest and WW1 had nothing to do with Allied intervention into the German industrial economy.
In blockchain EVERY transaction can be traced so that is NOT the solution to anything.

The solutions are simple but for reason EU and many countries try the complicated non-solutions.
Here are the facts:
1. 95% of the the people coming come because they have heard the stories how Sweden, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, etc. give free apartment and free money for the rest of their life to people whose story of “persecution” is believed by immigration authorities.
2. The decisions are made after one interview based on the story written down by the immigration official.
3.There are no credible attempts to catch liars but rather the presumption is that the asylum seeker is telling the turth and if the official can’t prove they are lying their story is believed no matter how many made-up it sounds.
4.Many countries do not compare the stories of the asylum seekers so with the same kind of story everybody gets asylum.
5. EU has made the system the mess it is with directives on how quickly the decision must be made so when asylum seekers destroy their passports and bring no ID and tell mostly lies it is impossible to get to the truth in the limited time an official has, this is compounded by bosses who only look at processing times. Other directives demand that an asylum seeker who gets refugee status based on their story must be allowed to bring their family also on welfare through family re-unification.
6.EU has further destroyed the immigration system through EASO (European Asylum Support Office) which took a curriculum and processing modules developed in Sweden (the most lax, loose and idiotic immigration officials in the world) by Swedish Migration authority under the name EAC (European Asylum Curriculum) and made that the EU standard so many EU countries started processing asylum applications like sweden and training their staff like Swedish Migration authority staff was trained which laed to an europe wide loosening of policies thereby increasing the percentage of asykum seekers which were accepted.
7.Then EU demanded Italy has to start picking up asylum seekers in the mediterranean sea who are in distress which lead to the smugglers sending totally unseaworthy ships and boats because they were given a sea-taxi-ride straight to Italy by italian coast guard or other eu countries ships sent to help italy. Some smugglers even instructed the asylum seekers to make their boat sink so they would be picked up and given a ride to italy. These led to increased drownings which led to even better sea-taxi-rides to italy where now italy goes and picks up boats 20 kilometers (12 miles) from the libyan coast.
8.Why is italy so popular when it gives 0 euros and if accepted the asylum seekers in italy get 0 euros and live on the street if they do not pay themselves an apartment by working?
Because italy has since 2014 when leftist democrat Matteo Renzi became Italy’s prime minister pushed the majority of asylum seekers to the north without registering them.
In 2014 over 170 000 people crossed the mediterranean sea and arrived to Italy and italy “lost” over 100 000 of these as reported by Newsweek. Actually they were not really lost but italy first gave a ship ride to Italy’s mainland and then a bus ride to cities with good train transport links and these over 100 000 asylum seekers moved to other countries without registering in italy and asked for asylum in those countries which give free money, free apartment, free healthcare, free dental care, free schools and free universities and family re-unification to welfare t every asylum seeker for the rest of their life if the asylum seekers story is believed.
9.Naturally this means that lots of people want to come to italy.
10.Naturally EU managed to make the original mess even bigger. When france started stopping the asylum-speculators in the Italy-french border Italy started crying and complaining they can’t cope (under the rush they themselves had created by pushing majority of asylum-speculators to north) so EU rammed through two rounds of burden-sharing where asylum seekers from italy and greece would be transferred around Europe by EU with the majority ending up in those countries which give free money and free apartments so EU made the mess caused by Italy and greece even bigger and even more people came.
11. These two rounds of burden-sharing were rammed through with media brainwashing using pictures of dead children washed up in the beaches of Turkey when their boat drowned when trying to reach Greece like Aylan (Aylan’s father told CNN later he wanted to reach Sweden to get free money, free apartment for his family and free dental work for himself). It is tragic that Aylans father returned to Syria to bury his son and family because their town was not dangerous. They had been lured by sweden’s idiotic decision in 2013 to give 100% of syrians a permanent asylum no matter where they were from in syria and no matter if they were persecuted or not.
12.The procedure EU-commission and Angela Merkel and Sweden and push-through countries Greece and Italy used to ram through the two burden-sharing pacts was qualified majority which has been sneaked through in EU without the EU-countries people or media really noticing which removes the need for everybody to agree on many issues.
Actually the original qualified majority decision process has been watered down with the majority required now being even less than originally and the areas where qualified majority decisions can be made have been increased several times
13. What about Greece?
Well in 2015 lefty-letftist communist-esque Alexis Tsipras came to power and he had promised to abolish detention. Before Greece had used the 18-month detention of asylum seekers who seeked asylum in greece and which is possible under EU-rules and some greek bureaucrats actually did their jobs by registering asylum seekers they came across.
Some greek officials did not do their jobs and instead pushed everybody towards the north either through sheer laziness or by taking bribes from asylum seekers trying to reach western europe and northern europe where welfare countries are located-
The end result was that majority got through but many people were taken under 18-month detention so the greek route was seen as very risky by people who dreamed of europe.
Alexis Tsipras and Syriza kept their election promise and ended detention of asylum seekers and Syriza gave a ride to greek mainland to all asylum seekers previously under detention.
14. What happened then?
Well again complete EU ineptitude and bureaucratic craziness came into play because EU courts had earlier decided that no dublin returns should be made to Greece because the greek detention was judged to be too harsh.
Well it obviously is compared to western europe and northern europe where there is no detention at all and asylum seekers are paid generous amounts of money, where they are free to go to bars, where there is free internet and free satellite-tv in the asylum seeker accommodation, where there are gyms and regular trips to swimming halls, where there are 5 meals a day, where they have even hired specialized cooks to make sure the food is like at home.
Dublin-treaty was meant to guarantee that the first country asylum seeker reaches in EU processes their asylum application and if the asylum seeker moves to another country they are returned to the first country.
Greece and Italy had completely broken the dublin-treaty with gross and malicious behaviour towards other countries by not registering the majority of asylum seekers which came through them but the EU-court decision meant that even people who had registered in greece could not be returned to greece.
So EVERYBODY Syriza and Alexis Tsipras had released from detention immediately left greece in early 2015 and went to seek asylum in western/northern europe and got into the asylum system of welfare paying countries.
Since Tsipras had stopped detention there was no way to force new people coming to greece during 2015 to seek asylum in greece so the word spread that everybody can go through greece. When the mass-arrivals started in early summer 2015 greece was worried about their tourism industry in the islands near turkey so they gave a quick ferry rides to mainland Greece for everybody and basically pushed everybody to Macedonian border and there the asylum seeker hordes traveled through Macedonia- Serbia-Hungary to welfare paying europe which starts at Austria.
Turkey also pushed people to Greece by letting smugglers operate and letting several companies sprung up in the turkish coast selling boats and other equipment to asylum seekers trying to get to greece.
15. When Hungary started acting like countries should act according to EU treaties by stopping the flow and how Greece and Italy should have been acting Angela Merkel went crazy and started saying everybody is welcome in Germany and declaring the Dublin convention does not apply anymore so the rush intensified even more.
16.Previously the rush had been increased by the burden-sharing decisions by EU through qualified majority.
17.When Hungary got their borderfence built the flow of asylum-speculators turned to Macedonia-Serbia-Croatia-Slovenia route to welfare europe which starts at Austria.
18.During this time Austria was still in Merkels camp but later Austrian chancellor Faymann was kicked out by his own party and the new guy decided to place a limit on asylum seekers of 80 people per day Asutria would accept through the border checks they put in place(later European Council lawyers confirmed this was a legal limitation in a situation where the asylum seeker accommodation in Austria was totally full).
19.Immediately Austrian neighbor Slovenia stated that they would start border checks as well and limit the amount of asylum seekers allowed through them to 50 people per MONTH because otherwise the asylum seeker hordes trying to reach Sweden, Germany and Austria would be bottled in little Slovenia with only 2 million population (when europe took over 2 million in 2015 and germany took over 1 million of this it does not take a genius to figure out that a nation of 2 million can not let itself become the bottleneck of insane rush started by idiotic EU-commission, Merkel, Sweden and push-through countries Greece and Italy).
This forced Croatia, Serbia and Macedonia also close their borders in 1 day.
20. Now the greek route (balkan route) was closed and there where tens of thousands of people stuck in greece crying and demonstrating how they do NOT want to be in greece and how they want to go to Germany and Sweden to seek asylum.
What was threatening these people in greece? NOTHING. They could seek asylum in greece and live without fear but with their crying and demonstations they made clear they were NOT after safety or peace but they were after the free apartments and free money and free everything Germany and Sweden and other welfare countries provided based on just a story and through a process where majority of stories were accepted and rewarded with asylum thanks to EU-directives and EASO and EU-commision idiocy and EU-courts idiocy.
21. Majority of countries wisely were very slow in taking the EU-burden-sharing asylum seekers from Greece and Italy so out of the agreed 160 000 only under 5 000 have been burden-shared so there is 155 000 still to be burden-shared.
22. Now EU-commission and Angela Merkel are predictably making an even bigger mess as always because they demand that the about 50 000 asylum seekers who got stuck in Greece when Austria/Slovenia started the process which closed greece’s neighbors borders and thereby closed the balkan route should be immeadiately burden-shared around EU-countries (with most ending up in welfare paying countries).
This is totally idiotic demand from EU-commission and Merkel because it would send a signal that the route through greece is again open and this time the rides to welfare paying free-apartment free-money countries have been provided by EU so the rush would start again and arrivals from Turkey would spike.
The main thing that lowered dramatically asylum seekers arrivals to Greece was the closure of the Macedonia border and thereby the closure of the balkan route and the images about the closed Macedonia border where asylum-speculators were complaining.
So to burden-share 50 000 people from Greece to around EU would start the rush again.
The Turkey deal also helped by lowering the amount of arrivals a little bit more so in complete horror scenario EU-commission and Merkel demand that 50 000 asylum seekers stuck in greece are burden-shared, EU-countries sheepishly do this, arrivals spike again when news spreads that people can again get to welfare paying countries through greece and then Turkey stops following the EU-Turkey deal and actively pushes people to Greece instead of just passively watching by. This would cause a repeat of 2015 or even greater numbers coming to greece.
23.The EU-commission predictably has even worse deals on the pipeline because EU-commion demands that countries submit to mandatory burden sharing (the previous burden-sharing deals were voluntary at least in name) and this mandatory burden sharing system is intended to be rammed through in 15th of September 2016 EU-meeting.
The new EU-commission horror story works like this:
EU-commssion calculates/decides for each country the amount of asylum seekers they should take, this is the 100% amount.
When a country has received 150% of the amount calculated for them a mandatory burden-sharing automatically starts and ALL people reaching the country in question after reaching 150% will be burden-shared to other EU-countries until the amount coming to the country which reached 150% drops to under 100% of the amount commission calculated for them.
Now anybody with logic can see that Greece and Italy would reach this 150% in a few months and because the automatic burden sharing would create a huge rush towards them that means the arrivals would NEVER drop under 100% in Greece and Italy so this would be a permanent gate from Greece and Italy to welfare paying EU-countries.
If the EU-commison insanity is rammed through 2015 will be remebered as a year when EU only had a little bit of asylum seekers because there will be 10-20 million asylum seekers every year if EU-commions and Merkel’s hallucinatory and totally insane vision of burden-sharing is accepted by qualified majority of EU-countries.
Hungary is having the vote by hungarians on burden-sharing because the earlier “voluntary” burden-sharings were decided through a qualified majority o they are actually considered binging although almost nobody has so far followed them through.
This new EU-commission burden-sharing insanity is also possibly going to get rammed through with qualified majority with all the countries who are to blame for the disaster of 2015 namely Germany, Sweden as the lurers and Greece and Italy as the push-through countries cheerleading the new burden-sharing insanity just like they cheerleaded the previous burden sharing.
As a cherry on top EU-commission demands that EASO (European Asylum Support Office) aka swedish nightmare shold be converted into European Union Agency for ASylum so the swedish asylum process would be mandatory in all EU-countries and all officials would be trained like swedish officials were trained and EASO would be final say on all things asylum and countries would just have to do as they are told.
This would lead to furher loosening of standards and even more lax asylum processes europe-wide so total and utter destruction.
How the situation should be solved:
-Cancel all previous burden-sharings
-NO new burden sharings
-EASO dismantled instead of being made into a more powerful European Asylum Agency
-Balkan route must be kept closed, no way either by walking, traveling or through burden-sharing from Greece to welfare paying europe.
-Italy’s neighbors need to close their borders as tightly as Greece’s neighbors closed theirs, France and switzerland and Austria already are moving in this direction
-No way to welfare paying countries through Italy and Greece will drop the numbers of arrivals
-Italy and Greece will provide just a tent and food until arrivals decide to return home just like Turkey, Libanon, Jordan etc. give refugees only tent and food.
EU can finance this.
-Italy will stop their ridiculous sea-taxi-rides from the Libya coast to Italy and will instead give rides to peaceful Tunisia from where people can return home or get a tent and food and nothing else. Paid by EU and further development aid for Tunisia as a reward because they are the only democratic success story of the Arab Spring.
-Turkey will be told that they will take everybody back from greece and provide them with a tent and food funded by EU.
If they decline the EU will stop importing turkish products and stop the yearly tourism in the tens of millions of people to Turkish mediterranean coast
-The current millions of asylum seekers will be sent home in 95% of cases because 95% are economic migrants or more accurately “welfare migrants” since even Iraq, Afganistan and Somalia have many peaceful areas in them where they could internally flee as specified in asylum treaties instead of coming to europe and after the balkan route closed syrians stuck in greece have been paying smugglers money so they could get back to syria from Greece.
-The epitome of insanity is the fact EU-countries give free apartment and free money for the rest of their lives to every army deserter from the Eritrean army because army deserters get a punishment in Eritrea for deserting. As can be imagined the amount of army desertions in Eritrea and the amount of eritreans coming to EU has been growing really fast for many years.
The problem is eu-commission and even the leaders in most EU-countries are completely out of touch from regular people and common sense and try to solve difficult problems with difficult solutions after they have so confused the situation that through their meddling the originally simple problems which actually have simple solutions turn into difficult problems with the solutions by EU-commission and Merkel failing and failing continually and making the problems more difficult.
You can publish this as a blog post if you wish, all the statements are factual and can be verified through googling.
You have laid that out very clearly . There are a few points I would like to add:
The flow of migrants to Greece has slowed mainly because of introduction of control on the Turkish side .
There is a disincentive for southern European countries to register migrants as they may then be liable to accept their return at some point .
Migrants will not/cannot be repatriated unless to countries where the west has control or close relations with the relative governments . In reality, expulsion on any wider scale just does not happen, it has been tried – people had better understand that once migrants are in EU that is where they will stay .
Burden sharing is just to cover northern European asylum policy failure , and whether other countries like it or not , migrants will now be making their way around EU to wherever they find some future . If no country will take them they should be asked which country they entered Europe to go to , and then be given a ticket to go there .
.
Flow of migrants slowed dramatically when Austria, Hungary and other countries locked their borders.
Turkey closed a gate that was 3/4 shut!
Hard to tell exactly, a combination of events took place around the same time… personally I think stronger border control out of Turkey and possibility of being returned was the main disuasion, closed borders through EU would be more noted by the north :
“For much of last year, Turkey looked the other way as an estimated 850,000 migrants crossed by sea into Greece. In November it agreed to stem the refugee tide in exchange for an offer of €3 billion ($3.3 billion) in aid from the European Union, as well as the promise of political concessions such as a visa-free travel agreement. Turkey has since stepped up patrols in the Aegean.”
http://www.economist.com/news/europe/21690181-turkish-police-have-cracked-down-hard-traffickers-refugees-keep-coming
The German-led patrol will be backed by planes that can monitor the flow of people attempting illegal crossings. Greece and Turkey have agreed that any migrants they intercept will be sent back.
“They will not be taken back to Greece. The aim of the group is to have them taken back to Turkey. That is the crucial difference,”

Push/pull http://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/europe-migration-crisis-context-why-now-and-what-next
I posted two replies with quotes/links that is withheld for several hours now – there were many adjustments going on at the time, not just inside European borders but also those with Turkey , Turkey’s change of stance . I would say it was a combined message , but for a migrant I personally think it would have been the local changes (in Turkey and NATO border patrols with direct devolutions ) that would have been the most effective . One of the links describes why , from the view of a smuggler . As we do not know the whole story , and it is a complex and chaotic one , it is not something we will be able to argue out I think.
Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon. Milton Friedman
Bankers caused the food riots and emigration from the Mid East by printing super food inflation. Taming global printing presses is the start to any lasting solution. Inflation is the bank’s war on the majority, but mostly the poor and elderly.
Apparently the Libyans don’t appreciate their recent liberation.
Hold on a minute.
If to ” make changes in the EU, 28 nations all have to agree” how the hell does that post communist apocalypse west destroyer Merkel get off deciding on behalf of the EU to take in refugees in the first place?
Rome had the same problem. A weak, decadent civilization unable to repel the barbarians that wanted Roman civilization for themselves.
The result I fear will be the same. A total collapse followed by a dark age.
Weak, Marxist Neoliberals will fiddle while Western civilization dies, consumed by the backward fire of Islam and the dead weight of Sub Saharan Africans.
Until she is forced out of office by what voters, the coming new migrant majority?
ROFLMAO Joe thanks for the humor.
+1– Katsaus Well thought out except they will not kick refugees out.
Germany is running this show and has basically taken over Brussel’s decision making process. The politico thought the EU countries would just roll over and forgot they are still sovereign country’s. Of course it is indeed about money, follow it, and you will see Greece and Italy get a lot of subsidies to host the refugees. Why stop the flow ?
Obama already accepter of 60,000 refugees. The difference is we do not balk about it. Sure you will hear about some small town mayor upset but our media will never cover real news in this country anymore.
Most of the “refugees” ( more like welfaregees) which reached greece and italy have just gone through greece and italy.
Through Greece in 2015 went over 1 million “refugees” and in Greece now there are only about 50 000 “refugees” which came to greece after Austria-Hungary-Slovenia-Croatia-Serbia and Macedonia had already closed their borders.
In italy in the year 2014 Italy pushed 100 000 “refugees” north without registration and just 70 000 stayed in italy of the 170 000 people picked up by the Italian coast guard from the mediterranean sea all the way to libyan coast. In 2015 the statistics were even worse so France had to close their borders with Italy by French border police.
NOBODY would go to italy and greece if there was no way through them to welfare paying europe.
Disagree that Merkel will lose much of anything. The refugees will continue to arrive in the EU. The citizens of the EU may dislike having refugees move into their commonwealth, but nobody will listen or act on their concerns.
The popular notion from most people is that the people have a voice and the voice will be heard. Outsiders such as the readers here think what’s right will eventually win and common sense will prevail.
If you look at actual events and compare them to commonly held perceptions, you will see a preponderance of events going against the popular wishes of the people and in the favor of the special interests. This started with TARP (and probably before) and TBTF and morphed into the the political capture of the FBI and Justice Dept regarding Hillary Clinton, the Fed and all other central banks dreaming up bogus theories and acting on them for the benefits of the top of the 1% aka the oligarchy, the EU and it’s grand plan to subjugate Europe, Regime Change and all the wars resulting from the concept, the TPP agreement and the farce of law it introduces, and more.Even Obama seems to be a handmaiden for this group.
I’m pessimistic elections will fix anything. The wrong people seem to win consistently or get corrupted shortly after winning.
Thinking linearly, the future can be predicted from the recent past. The oligarchy will take over even more strongly. Readers here and everywhere else will ‘piss and moan’ about refugee crises and crooked politicians who always get away with it, and that’s as far as it will get. Our pockets will continue to be picked via low to negative interest rates with what amounts to an economic tax to support the oligarchy and the welfare state.
I’s time to get used to it. All the ‘pissing and moaning’ in the world won’t change anything unless you work for news media, in which case it will get you fired (Pinsky @ CNN, and the HuffPo reporter).
Eventually the Oligarchy will run out of little people to subjugate. At that point members of the Oligarchy will turn on themselves. It’s human nature.
“Tomorrow Europe might no longer be European, and even black, as there are millions who want to come in,” said Col Gaddafi, quoted by the AFP news agency.
European Commission figures show that in 2009 the number of people caught trying to enter Italy illegally fell to 7,300, from 32,052 in 2008. The data was collected under the EU’s Eurodac fingerprinting system.

Yet there is no sign of an end to the human exodus. Libya’s UN-backed government, unelected and lacking popular support, has no security force of its own or the means to police the militias, for whom migrant smuggling is big business. Operation Sophia estimates the income to the militias from this migration at more than £200m a year, strengthening their hand.

EU should ‘undermine national homogeneity’ says UN migration chief.
21 June 2012.
“The EU should “do its best to undermine” the “homogeneity” of its member states, the UN’s special representative for migration has said.
Peter Sutherland told peers the future prosperity of many EU states depended on them becoming multicultural.”
He told the House of Lords committee migration was a “crucial dynamic for economic growth” in some EU nations “however difficult it may be to explain this to the citizens of those states”
Mr Sutherland recently argued, in a lecture to the London School of Economics, of which he is chairman, that there was a “shift from states selecting migrants to migrants selecting states” and the EU’s ability to compete at a “global level” was at risk.
Mr Sutherland, who has attended meetings of The Bilderberg Group , a top level international networking organisation often criticised for its alleged secrecy, called on EU states to stop targeting “highly skilled” migrants, arguing that “at the most basic level individuals should have a freedom of choice” about whether to come and study or work in another country.

The history of Europe for the past two thousand years is the history of people defending their land from invasion.
Why should it be different this time?
“To make changes in the EU, 28 nations all have to agree.” – Not true. The EU rules were recently changed and the decisions are adopted with 2/3 of the countries agreeing. That’s how immigrant quota were imposed. Do you really think that Hungary wouldn’t have vetoed this?
“For issues falling under the Common Foreign and Security Policy (once known as Pillar Two),
“EU member states have agreed to cooperate, but most decision making is intergovernmental and
requires the unanimous agreement of all 28 EU countries.”
