80 percent of migrants NOT from Syria: EU figures expose the 'lie' that most are fleeing war zone
Daily Mail ^ | September 19, 2015 | By Ian Drury

Only one in every five migrants claiming asylum in Europe is from Syria.

The EU logged 213,000 arrivals in April, May and June but only 44,000 of them were fleeing the Syrian civil war.

Campaigners and left-wing MPs have suggested the vast majority of migrants are from the war-torn state, accusing the Government of doing too little to help them.

'This exposes the lie peddled in some quarters that vast numbers of those reaching Europe are from Syria,' said David Davies, Tory MP for Monmouth. 'Most people who are escaping the war will go to camps in Lebanon or Jordan.

'Many of those who have opted to risk their lives to come to Europe have done so for economic reasons.'

The figures from Eurostat, the EU's official statistical agency, show that migration from April to June was running at double the level of the same period in 2014.

The number of Afghans lodging asylum claims is up four-fold, from 6,300 to 27,000. Another 17,700 claims were made by Albanians, whose country is at peace.

A further 13,900 applicants came from Iraq which, like Syria, is being torn apart by the Islamic State terror group.

Half a million migrants have arrived in Europe so far this year, with 156,000 coming in August alone. Rather than claiming asylum in the first safe EU country they reach, most head on toward wealthy northern states. . .

For Arabs/Muslims/Persians/Paleostinians/UN etc.

THE TRUTH MEANS NOTHING...

Work with what you have because NOBODY gives a damn about facts or truth anymore.

From the pathetic staged photo of the young drowned boy in Turkey, to the BBC interviews of the poor little diddums waiting on the floors or streets...it's all a lie and total denial of reality.

Anybody or group that does not see this as an Islamic invasion is willingly blind.

The Europeans by and large are welcoming their killers with open arms.

Mass European suicide.

Let's stop lying to ourselves for a change and adjust our ways, bend over, pray to Allah and take it up the ‘ol wazoo.

The Pope, by accepting two “refugee” families in the Vatican—who are CHRISTIANS!—is promoting the lie that this is all about a humanitarian crisis.

One of many lies the Pope is promoting. And it’s odd—the lies he promotes are EXACTLY the ones the U.N. and Obama happen to be pushing this week, next week, etc.

I think “Ethnic Cleansing 2.0” will be coming to Europe soon.

I predict, probably late, that accepting all those so-called refugees will be the end of GB in days to come.

It’s a cook book folks. Ben Carson is right. Islam is incompatible with Western Civilization. In Islam the religion is the state and vice versa.

Are there any libs that get this?

only 44,000 of them were fleeing the Syrian civil war

I wonder how many of those 44,000 are traveling on forged Syrian papers and are actually from other countries. I also wonder how many really are Syrian, but they are ISSI or Al Qaeda traveling on a mission rather than as refugees. I imagine the last two groups are the ones that Obama wants to see make it to their destinations.

It is a manufactured crisis, an invasion of non-Muslim countries to spread Islam. Period.

The reason women and children aren’t among the ‘refugees’ is they’ve already migrated, nailed down welfare for the four kids, and are waiting on their men who have to lie about who they are to get to the gravy train waiting for them.

Welfare, EBT, Section 8, and Obama/Merkle Phones.

This is why they come.
OH.
And to invade.

What could possibly go wrong when the head-choppers get to the gun free zone of Europe?

My hunch all along has been that few of the “refugees” invading Europe are actually refugees. They’re invaders, no different than those who were stopped by Charles Martel.

Hey, here is a great idea. Let’s take another 200,000 of these “refugees”. John Kerry says we have to because it is only the right thing to do.
