French President Emmanuel Macron is under renewed fire after urging his minority government to vote for a strengthened immigration bill that was endorsed by the far right. The late Tuesday vote, which divided Macron's coalition MPs and prompted his health minister to resign a day later, was heralded by far-right leader Marine Le Pen as an “ideological victory” upon its passage.
It's worth noting that multiple sects of the Hasidic Jewish community oppose Zionism and the State of Israel. Some of these people have requested asylum in Iran due to Israel's repressive approach towards the Hasidic community.
While the whole world is getting a hard on talking about the danger of Russia and how much money each country has to spent to protect us from the "Russians who are coming for our freedom", the voiceless victim of what tarted as the biggest crimes of our modern history, the "War On Terror", keep dying on the sea, in land or in slave markets in Libya and Sudan.
The last of the forgotten stories the shipwreck by the coast of Greece, on a boat filled with almost 750 people, 3000% more than it was built for, has cost the lives of more than 500 people, including more than 100 children who were held deep under the deck "to be safe".
The sorry didn't make the front page of the news on the world media and those who covered it, called it "dozens died in capsize boat", dozens. That is the language they use to make it less harmful, not to make people feel sad or empathic for the victims. Because no one wants them, no one cares for them and no one wants to know about them,
WE have spent 100s of billions of dollars into the war in Ukraine that our leaders (with our backing) convinced us that is the only thing that matters, we have to set the world on fire, to save Ukraine, it is the front for the war between "civilized Europe" and the barbarians from the east. Nothing else matters, and we have to sacrifice EVERYTHING to stop the "new Hitler".
The Ukraine war is different, and not, the language is the same, because efore that, it was the ISIS, before that, it was AlQaeda and before that the Taliban. The names are different, but they hall something in common, they were all created by the failed policies of the west, and their victims, all 4.5 million of them don't even count. They are not worthy of any change in policy, any critical look at the rotten foundation of the so called civilized world's values and behavior.
the unnamed victims of the capsized ship in Greece is jut the latest of many, many more that no one pays attention, and if they do, it only last a minute, or a day. Then they move on. Focus on what is important. To keep our Amazon order coming on time, the Uber driver can get his slave wage so we can go from point a to b, and the factory workers in Vietnam, Honduras, Haiti, Mexico and all other places keep on working 12h per day for a $1 an hour or less we can buy a brand football jersey for $120 and be proud to support our team.
No one will even remember the shipwreck in Greece in a few days (if they haven't already forgotten of course) or all others who die so we can live our life, not knowing the price they pay just to have a fraction of what we have,
Sorry for the rant, i am writing with tears in my eyes, watched a short story from an eye witness of the tragedy. It hits me hard because I was one of those boat refugees 38 years ago. I was lucky and survived and got support, welcomed and got an education and was able to have a life I never thought I would have. But none of the 500+ people who died in Greece the other day will never have that chance. Not even the ones who survived will be as lucky as I was, the world has changed, the world refugee is a curse word.
I still remember the word of an Irish guy in my team who said "holy shit, I am working for a refugee"!

🔵 About 2,500 #NationalGuard members are already stationed at all nine sectors of the southwest border doing support work with U.S. Customs and Border Protection, one official said. The new increase will bring the total to 4,000 military personnel on the border.
🔵 Officials said the 1,500 troops requested by the Department of Homeland Security, will fill critical “capability gaps,” such as watching for crossings, monitoring camera feeds, data entry and warehouse support, until the agency can replace them with contractors.
🔵 #DHS said in a statement that the request for more troops is due to an anticipated increase in arrivals of migrants attempting to enter the U.S. Support from the troops will free up DHS personnel to fulfill their own law enforcement duties, officials said.

"One should not expect to stay here in all eternity by having a permanent residency status".
What does she think PUT means exactly? A person who is living in Sweden permanently and like me and my family, chose to become citizens later on.
These lunatics want to reverse the 1000s of permanent residency status of immigrants and make it a time based.
This is a breach of Swedish imigration laws and should not be allowed, as it will set a new ground for discrimination and selective acceptance of those who get the permanent residency in the country.
This is what Conservatives of M bending over for the demands of the Neo Nazi SD and christian Taliban K(s)D.
Nothing racist about it. Keep sending EU money to them.
#Poland’s government has authorised the construction of a new barrier along the 210-kilometre border with the Russian exclave of #Kaliningrad.
Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said on Wednesday the frontier needs to be "sealed" so that the country feels secure.
The move comes amid suspicions that Moscow plans to facilitate illegal border crossings by Asian and African migrants.
Blaszczak said the decision came after Russia's aviation authority recently launched flights from the Middle East and North Africa to Kaliningrad.

Preparatory work on the new, temporary barrier has begun, involving Polish soldiers specialised in demining.
