Between the Libyan and Sicilian coasts, there is a distance of 300 miles and the common story is that poor, belabored migrants make this dangerous crossing in an effort to reach either safety or a better life but tragically fail. The only problem is this isn’t actually true. Last year, more than 180,000 people were registered as entering Europe by this method. But out of that 180,000, how many do you think made the 300 mile journey? Zero. Not a single one.
The reality is that the boats make it just 12 miles from the Libyan coast and send out a distress signal. In rush the NGOs and the EU vessels to pick them up. The Laws state that they should rightly be taken to the nearest port, for example Tunisia or back to Libya, but no, they are taken to Europe and the process of citizenship begins.

Exactly the same thing that Erik Prince of Blackwater:
the Mediterranean Crossing is cracked up to be this huge, heroic trial by fire but in fact the easiest leg of the trip.
if any navy picks them up they end up getting chauffeured with a blanky to the nearest European port, and it’s on to the fat welfare rolls from that point on.
Law of the Sea, or something.
Wow. Suicide of the West.
Truly bizarre.
Erik Prince said he offered his Services, it would be easy:
95% of these migrants are transiting the Sahara Desert and they all come through four or five roads in Libya and Tunisia.
you’d simply set up desert Road checkpoints in there and nearby Refugee centers.
The whole European problem would be eliminated cheaply and easily.
none of them walk through the desert off of trails they’re all concentrated on the roads.
The Euroweenies need to start arresting the NGO crews and seizing or sinking their ships.
Well said.
The “migrants” are picked up a few miles from the Libyan cast by NGO transport ships that surreptitiously turn their GPS locating transponders off to prevent tracking and detection as they make a run for the Libyan coast to pick up people and contraband including drugs and weapons .
As in the US, migrants are also used as cover for smuggling drugs and weapons into the EU.
“Camp of the Saints” was a training manual.
In that case the best result would be to evacuate the crew and “cargo”, haul them back to Libya and scuttle the unseaworthy ship. How many ship owners can Soros convince to lose their ships for a one day rental price and how many ships can Soros afford to buy?
