Refugees will freeze to death, warn EU head
The Telegraph ^ | 25 Oct 2015 | Matthew Holehouse

Migrants crossing the Balkans will begin freezing to death as winter approaches, the head of European Union has said, as leaders warned the continent was "falling apart" trying to deal with the biggest humanitarian crisis since the Second World War.

As leaders of eastern European countries turned on each other at a foul-tempered emergency summit in Brussels, they said the Schengen visa-free zone and even the European Union itself could be pulled apart as states threw up borders to halt the influx.

Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the European Commission, said a solution was urgently needed or thousands of refugee families facing winter temperature on the hillsides and freezing river-banks of Eastern Europe, would die.

"Every day counts," he said. "Otherwise we will soon see families in cold rivers in the Balkans perish miserably."

Idiots. Well, at least they haven’t tried to invade Russia in the winter.

Europe has made a big, BIG mistake. It may be one of the consequences is the EU falls apart, each country for itself. They do not understand their enemy.

Refugees are going to freeze to death and it’s all your fault America.

I hope you hatefilled teabaggers are happy.

Throughout history the most successful invasions are planned to begin in the spring, not in the fall before the onset of winter.

Of course throughout history, up until now, most invaders weren’t welcomed with open arms, free housing, food, clothing and medical care either.

Oh yes the 10s of thousands of Napoleons French army perished in the freezing weather too when they set out in the summer time with summer clothes etc ...unprepared...

and got caught when they were still there in the winter...

oh and also uninvited...

it pays to know your European white man’s history after all...

These people need a warm, dry roof over their head. They need food, education, transportation and a Merkel phone.

But But But Global Warming means no more freezing temps in lower latitudes. “Snow will be a rare and wondrous event” right?

Given the Euro capitulation to these people on all fronts, you know very well the government is going to house them, even if it is at the expense of its own citizens.

In today's pussified world, nobody says no to Muslims.

Didn’t Hanibal run into similar problems in the Alps when he invaded? Should we mourn for him as well?

Well the women should be saved if possible. But other than that I agree.
