PICTURES: Greek Border in Flames as Migrants Keep Trying to Break Through
Breitbart ^ | March 7th, 2020 | Jack Montgomery

Posted on 03/08/2020 2:29:21 PM PDT by Mariner

Dramatic pictures and video are emerging of fires raging along the border between Greece and Turkey, as migrants — aided and even armed by the Turks, according to the Greeks — continue their efforts to force their way in.

The European Union, including the United Kingdom, funnelled billions of euros to the Islamist government in Ankara in an effort to persuade it to bring the migrant crisis under a modicum of control after hundreds of thousands of illegal border crossings, often by sea, in 2015-16.

That deal unravelled at the end of February 2020, as Turkish president Reep Tayyip Erdogan announced migrants were free to pass through his country and into Europe, seemingly as punishment for the West’s failure to offer sufficient support to his invasion of Syria, which has become fraught with danger as his forces clash with the Russian-backed Syrian government in Idlib province.

You must put it down as an invasion or lose your country.

“In light of the Turkish-sponsored invasion of Europe, why are we backing the Turks in Syria? “

Ask the President.

If it were up to me we would have supported Assad all along in his efforts to hold that country together.

That would have been in the best interests of the US.

Just as an announced policy to help Greece prevent this invasion would be now.

While Turkey was a good friend up to about 20 years ago, they are now a natural enemy.

“...hundreds of thousands of illegal border crossings...”

“MIGRANTS” ?????

Sounds more like “INVADERS”.

The scene from “World War Z” comes to mind.

I believe that Finland sent a representative to Greece in order to help refugees apply for asylum. This is the same country that came up with the no-no square dance as a way to stop refugees from raping their women. If you haven’t seen that video yet go to YouTube, search for Paul Joseph Watson and watch the video called rapists BTFO. If it wasn’t so sad it would be funny. Actually, it’s funny anyway.

Half way through the “no-no square” video. Sadly hilarious. Apparently part of a 2.5 Million Euro education program aimed at dealing with Muslims.

Thanks for the reference.

The photos are captioned:
“A migrant throws rocks”
“A migrant throws teargas...”

Because that is what someone who wants to enter another country peacefully to live usually does. /s

These are not “migrants.” They are terrorists.

If Finland held a contest called “Give us the stupidest, least effective way of dealing with sexual assault” that video would be tough to beat.

“”as Turkish president Reep Tayyip Erdogan announced migrants were free to pass through his country and into Europe,””

WHERE are they coming from? Syria? They are such nice looking animals, I can’t imagine why Erdogan doesn’t want them to stay in his country! What’s wrong with that man? They’d be such an improvement. He should be building another fence to keep them in Turkey!!
