It is possible to stop the movement of smuggler boats. Up until 2011 Italy and France had a deal with the Kaddafi government to shut down the coastal people smugglers. Between 2008 and 2010 Kaddafi reduced the flow of illegals to Europe (from Libya) from 40,000 to 5,000 a year. He also persuaded the smuggling gangs to stop moving people from all over the Middle East and Africa into Libya. Then came the 2011 uprising that overthrew Kaddafi and Libya has been trying to form another national government ever since.

“Smuggling gangs”

Oh, people like George Soros and Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

Thank them for Libya.

Oh the evil that Obama and Clinton wrought in Libya.

To cross Northern Africa these smuggling gangs use about 12 different roads that are known.

Erik Prince formerly of Blackwater explain that the logistics of stopping this human tide would be simple, you would simply have Road checkpoints and human holding areas next to those roads.

there is simply no political will to do so
