The refugee story has hardly begun. There will be, on conservative estimates, another million arriving via Turkey this year – and maybe more. The distribution quotas proposed by Germany, and resisted by many states in eastern Europe, are already a fiction and will fade into insignificance as the next wave comes.
Germany itself will face critical choices: if you’re suddenly running a budget deficit to meet the needs of asylum seekers, how do you justify not spending on the infrastructure that’s supposed to serve German citizens, which has crumbled through underinvestment in the Angela Merkel era?
But these problems are sideshows compared with the big, existential issues that a second summer of uncontrolled migration into Greece would bring.
First, there’s the diplomatic onslaught on Greece. Last week the European Commission mulled quarantining Greece by building a razor-wire fence inside the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, which is not even a member of the EU. German sources floated the idea of cancelling Greece’s debt if only Greece would agree to jail 400,000 migrants. A Belgian minister, in an EU negotiation, is alleged – by his Greek counterpart – to have demanded the Greeks “push back or sink†the boats coming from Turkey, in breach of international law. Others in Europe are proposing to criminalise the NGOs that are helping the refugees as they arrive in the islands.

Cool.
Thanks for posting.
That mayor doesn’t get it at all.
The peasants should just do as they are told and find another route to school!
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has announced it is going to throw more money and resources at defending Europe from Russia. Europe won’t even defend itself, why on earth are we still fighting the Cold War?
Yes its nuts and thanx to OMuslim. 11 more mos and a lot of damage til hopefully we get Trump in. Otherwise IMO CWII kicks off.
Angela Urkel. Brilliant.
The USA Government via Obama is complicit in this destruction of EU civilization
The distribution quotas proposed by Germany, and resisted by many states in eastern Europe
These are COUNTRIES, not European States. That is the first globalist aggression to unload for the Nations in Europe. It’s like Hitler won rule over Europe. Only it’s Merkel.
It’s actually a myth that benefits for migrants are better in the UK than France. The attraction specifically of the UK in preference to other EU countries appears above all to be language, and secondly job opportunities - in France you can’t get a job without ID, in Britain you often can.
Goodness. A news story on a current crisis in which the word ‘existential’ doesn’t appear until the third paragraph.
This explains how Europe is ensnared by International Law [and is an excellent example of why our own senate is so dangerous with its treaty powers] ...

I have not been following this closely, but it is no surprise to me that NGOs are behind this disaster (buncha paid chest -pounding emoters). NGOs are a government within a government at the UN, because they have money. At this point one has to ask, "Whose money?" Who is funding these groups? Who wants this continental meltdown and descent into limitless war? OK, Soros, but who else specifically?
