Migrants stir border row between ex-Yugoslav foes (Croatia and Serbia)

BATROVCI, Serbia/OPATOVAC, Croatia (Reuters) - Serbia threatened to retaliate on Tuesday after Croatia halted all cargo traffic from its eastern neighbor, with relations between the ex-Yugoslav republics starting to fray over the flow of migrants across their joint border.

More than 30,000 migrants, many of them Syrian refugees, have entered European Union member Croatia from Serbia since Tuesday last week, when Hungary barred their entry to the EU over its southern border with Serbia with a metal fence.

They are being bussed by Serbia direct to the Croatian border, having entered Serbia from Macedonia. Croatia says it cannot cope with the numbers and, in apparent retaliation, has closed all but one of its road border crossings with Serbia and halted trucks from entering on the Belgrade-Zagreb highway, one of Serbia’s two main arteries to the west.

“We’re not fools; we see what they’re doing,” Croatian Prime Minister Zoran Milanovic told reporters....

These Euroweenies believe it is okay to just hand their countries over to muslims. They are the biggest idiots in the history of time.

I’d say the 52 percent that voted for obummer twice are in competition for number 1.

Everything has gone according to what he wanted, except maybe Egypt.

And NYU students want us to pay global warming reparations.

The male students will make excellent slave labor and the female students should bring a good price at auction when muslims get their chance.

Oh, and they wont be allowed to be atheists. .

Every one of these ignorant liberal clowns deserve to live a 5 year sentence under islamic law.

That may not be such a good ideal because these spineless idiots are so easily indoctrinated, they may end up chopping people’s heads off.
Before it is over.

re: believing it's okay to just hand their countries over

The poorer countries of the EU believed it was okay to turn over their sovereignty to the ruling elite in Germany and Austria. They're already reduced to being hopeless debt slaves who can't even vote themselves out (ex: Greece). Now, they're going to be reduced to slave-labor status with populations that have to be totally controlled.

I wonder how many of these "migrants" Germany and Austria will keep for themselves.

The under 30 crowd is a mess. A poll stated that half would move to another country if they had the chance.

I’ve seen some punks type that they’d rather see American Christians killed than muslims.

Global Nonsense is at the top of their priority list...

Makes a good case for a more de-centeralized government. It would surely apply here too.

Any fool can see that 90% of these phony “refugees” are invading Muslim fighters. Merkel’s name will go down in history as the leader who brought Germany down, and she will be as reviled as Hitler as her country sinks into the oblivion of the Islamic caliphate.

The US has several army bases in Germany. Do you think they will eventually become involved in this situation?

If Merkel is so compassionate, why is she making them get to Germany the hard way? She should be sending planes to Turkey to bring the “refugees” to Germany in air-conditioned comfort.
