Hungary shuts EU border, taking migrant crisis into its own hands

Hungary's right-wing government shut the main land route for migrants into the EU on Tuesday, taking matters into its own hands to halt Europe's influx of refugees.

An emergency effort led by Germany to force European Union member states to accept mandatory quotas of refugees collapsed in discord.

Berlin called for EU financial penalties against countries that refused to accommodate their share of migrants. A Czech official said such threats were empty but nonetheless "damaging". Slovakia said they would bring the "end of the EU".

Under new rules that took effect from midnight, Hungary said anyone seeking asylum at its border with Serbia, the EU's external frontier, would automatically be turned back, and anyone trying to sneak through would face jail.

In scenes with echoes of the Cold War, families with small children sat in fields beneath the former communist country's new 3.5-metre (10 foot) high fence, which runs almost the length of the border, topped with razor wire.

“Strike. No food. No water. Open this border,” a woman had written on a child’s dress that she held above her head.

Now just what do you think Turkey will do if the EU sends plane loads of these people to their country when these people have destroyed their papers to identify what nation they are from?

[caww]

Not to mention these guys continue to role in on Italy's borders....

[bassmaner]

Interesting that they’re bypassing Muslim Albania ...

[caww]

Some of the Refugees Hungary has arrested...now what will they do with them...ship them back to where when most have no papers to identify the nation they came from???

[caww]

That’s because they’re already a Muslim/Islamic nation so why invade them??? When the time comes that’ll be an easy pushover. Further Albania isn’t one of the open border nations of Europe.

[caww]

When these Syrians re-organize they will go over this fence in masses.....wire cutters already getting in place, you can be sure of that...and they'll simply overwhelm those few guys on the other side...who you can bet will not shoot....

[dfwgator]

They have to start shooting, anything else is but a half-measure.

[dfwgator]

The only answer is to recolonize the Middle East and Africa to make it inhabitable.

[caww]

Just remember, that today’s poor, confused, and helpless refugee…WAS YESTERDAY’S TERRORIST IN SYRIA....

[caww]

In Hungary... a dispute between Eritreans and Albanians had broken out. The reason: a busy washing machine ....25 police to calm the young men down down....

[caww]

A mass fight among Syrians vs. Afghans has taken place at a refugee camp in Dresden.......According to the police, about 50 people participated in the disorder. Eight foreigners suffered injuries of various types... Both men and women participated in the fight, they used anything that came to hand: pieces of fencing, legs of beds, etc.according to a law enforcement official.

[caww]

One of the camps in Turkeys they do not want to remain in...though many have work outside the camp they so not want this lifestyle and see nothing left in Syria to go back to...to the well off lifestyles they had in Syria...this is not what they want as a lifestyle to continue with after 4 yrs. of waiting. So these are economic immigrants....they use containers in this camp....

[caww]

Note: Sometimes articles or pictures use ‘any’ camp picture as a photo so they won’t always look like the place they are actually from....the idea is to show some of the camps used throughout the Syrian WAR...that the Syrians and others no longer want to remain in.....

[caww]

Interesting is Over 90,0000 Sudanese 'Nubans' now live in Yida 'refugee camp' across the border in South Sudan...it's like a city...and probably never had life as good in the camps where they are fed and clothed etc. then in the suffering homes they had....but the younger men , because of the inter-net, now SEE what the rest of the world lives like and will not settle for this....

Yeah, they did it in 24 hours flat. For the US its been, what, 40 years? It almost makes you laugh.

[Sam Gamgee]

No, they never do. I just love that the phony Amnesty International is up in arms.

[Sam Gamgee]

Love what he had to say

“The supply is nearly endless - we can see how many of them are coming,” Orban said in a televised address just before the new laws took effect at midnight. “And if we look at the demographics, we can see that these people have more children than our communities who lead a traditional, Christian way of life.”

“Mathematics tells you that this will lead to a Europe where our way of life will end up in a minority, or at least face a very serious challenge.”

Could you even imagine another Western leader who would have the dangles to say something like that?

To our mutual sorrow, no. That's the problem, imho.

[Smokin' Joe]

Look at that picture. How many women and children do you see? How many old men?

[Smokin' Joe]

The problem really is what are they going to do with all these people????? Processing them all is obviously impossible.....there are just too many, and too many still coming...

Someone took a lesson from the 'kid invasion' of the US.
