Migrants Clash With Police in Hungary, as Others Enter Croatia- water cannons and tear gas used
NY TIMES ^ | SEPT. 16, 2015 | RICK LYMAN

HORGOS, Serbia — Hungarian riot police officers fired water cannons and tear gas on Wednesday after hundreds of migrants tried to break through a gate at the newly reinforced border between Serbia and Hungary.

“Open! Open! Open!” the migrants chanted, as many covered their faces to protect themselves. About 50 riot police officers formed a barrier to prevent them from passing. A vehicle armed with water cannons stood nearby. Military helicopters hovered overhead.

Hungary’s decision to seal its borders and press criminal charges against migrants continued to reverberate across Europe, sending thousands of people on alternative routes through Croatia and other countries to reach Germany and other points in Western Europe. Croatia’s prime minister promised them safe passage, as long as they were only passing through the country.

On the Serbian side of the border, hundreds of migrants remained stuck, while still others kept arriving. At the border town of Horgos, migrants, who had slept in tents overnight, lined up for food. There were just 11 toilets and two taps with running water for them. The temperature reached a sweltering 86 degrees Fahrenheit.

Hungary moved, meanwhile, to close off another alternative, by tightening its border with Romania. The ripple effects reached as far as Edirne, on the European side of Turkey, where police officers at a bus station near the city were blocking migrants who wished to walk to the nearby border with Greece and Bulgaria.

Hungary announced that police officers had detained 519 people for illegal entry or damaging a border fence since new rules came into force a day earlier. The authorities have opened 46 criminal cases so far

Muslims act entitled to live in Germany and Europe far from the chaos of Muslim killing Muslim warfare///// Keep them out and let them sort it out among themselves. If Europe has any brains it will keep them out and allow in some well vetted Christian Syrians

Since when is European civilization required to bail out these fools who live thousands of miles away?

God help us if and when the hate-filled Muslim refugees encounter Jews....another Holocaust, for sure

Syrian (and other) Christians are being driven from their homes by the arrival of ISIS and other radical Islamist groups. The blame can be laid at the WH door. Obama and then Secy of State Hillary declared war on Syria's President Assad. As a result, the cancer of ISIS has metastasized and taken control over large sections of Syria, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, and is threatening the non-Muslim world with relentless terrorist attacks.

(Excerpted--abcnews.go.com) Adding insult to injury.....the Office of Inspector General of the US Department of Defense has opened an investigation to address recent allegations concerning the processing of intelligence information by CENTCOM Intelligence Directorate WRT ISIS.....to downplay the ISIS threat.

Also under scrutiny....deviations from appropriate process, procedures, or internal controls regarding the intelligence analysis; and personal accountability for any misconduct or failure to follow established processes.

....and falsification, distortion, delay, suppression, or improper modification of intelligence information....

Keep in mind....falsifying official documents is the preferred MO to cover-up larger crimes.

THIS JUST IN Christian Syrian Refugees Driven From Safe House In Sweden By Refugee Muslims
Christian Post | July 23, 2015 | Vincent Funaro / FR Posted by Titus-Maximus

Syrian Christian refugees already living in Sweden say they were forced out of their asylum house by recent Muslim refugees who demanded they hide their crosses and banned them from using communal areas in the home they shared.

“The Christians dared not stay. The atmosphere became too intimidating. And they got no help,” said a Swedish government migration agency rep responsible for the center they were staying in to Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter. “They chose themselves to organize [a] new address and moved away without our participation because they felt a discomfort.”

The Christians, comprised of two families, were seeking asylum after fleeing from the Islamic State in Syria. And the place they were staying at housed around 80 people with many being Syrian Muslims.

a good old fashion cavalry charge should end this protest. Maybe Poland can lend them some for this task? Thundering armor and spears, spraying blood would do wonders for the mosselims.

LIVE FEED from the border near Horgos.
Shouts of Allahu Akbar as they rush the fence, then are teargassed by the Hungarian Police.

My opinion is Hungarians and other Europeans are drawing some civilizational confidence from how well Donald Trump is doing by decrying our own illegal immigration invasions. Building walls and fences is in right now!

The reporting really sucks on this. First they aren’t migrants, they are invaders. Second they aren’t covering their faces to protect themselves, they are covering their faces to hide their identities.

I do agree with the general views of Freepers here. As I listen to the barrage of "news" from Canadian television, it is all Hungary and so on. The "bad guys".

The Camp of the Saints.
Jean Raspail.
The Social Contract Press.1973

Uncanny can be the watchword on this book about a massive armada of "refugees" from the Ganges, India. Countries are tracking it's voyage, as it makes it's way to the some refugee friendly haven. The flotilla is trying to go through the Suez Canal which is a bottle neck in Egypt. It could get permanently stuck there. The Egyptian military is pictured as threatening the captains of these ships to "blow them out of the water." This if they try to enter the canal.

They sail on. Then at Durban, South Africa they prepare to disembark. Again the threat is made by the South African military - to "blow them out of the water". On they go eventually to destroy the South of France. Raspail even forecasts the reigning Pope who cries out for acceptance and love for the migrants. This follows today.

Excuse the ramble, but the warning was out there many years ago. Hungarians will bless their leaders in the future. Germany will curse theirs. (JMHO).

I`ve often wondered if Capsaicin could be mixed with the water used in those cannon? In theory any exposed and delicate skin such as the genital area and face would tend to burn. And the burning wouldn`t stop until the person removed the affected clothing and bathed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capsaicin

Several camera crews, one even has a tripod mounted rig; lots of cell phones with people just wandering around talking. Mostly young men. Sure doesn’t look like desperate refugees. Looks more like media and invaders looking for incidents they can broadcast to show the alleged evil of the Hungarian authorities.

Wow, who’da thunk there would be riots? The cops and military are encouraging them to hang at the gates by giving them food and water so of course they demand more.

Wouldn't it be satisfying to see the excesses of Obama and Obama-mania ignite a word-wide movement back toward reason, sanity and good judgement and away from his liberal/socialist/one-world dogma, brain dead political correctness, mindless worship of diversity and cultural suicide?
