Return the ship to Libya.
Arrest the captain and shoot him for human smuggling, exploitation and piracy, in front of his crew - so they can spread the word

Rescue the passengers and return them to Shitholia.
Tow the ship out to sea, handcuff the crew to the railings, and sink it.

Italy (or any other developed country) needs a boatload of unskilled don’t-speak-the-language mouths to feed like it needs a hole in the head. These people are not fleeing anything except a need to work to support themselves. Buh-bye.

Amusing... the EU is fighting over which country should welcome these ‘refugees.’ How ‘bout none?
