Much has been written about emigration from Ireland. Little has been written about immigration to Ireland, even tho it's had a significant impact on the island over the centuries. It's possible that some of my ancestors were Jewish refugees from Spain and Portugal who settled in southern Ireland in the 16th century. Looking forward to learning more.

As a result of the wars unleashed by the U.S. after September 11, 2001, 38,000,000 civilians were displaced.

This is the second highest result in world history. Only World War II resulted in more refugees.

Direct military aggressions, the so-called "war on terror" which led to the creation of ISIS, and economic strangulation have all led to disastrous consequences for the people of a number of states in the Middle East and North Africa, forcing ordinary people to flee their homes, cities, villages and states to other countries.

According to a report https://t.co/MLXyekTZTQ by the Watson Institute for International Studies (an interdisciplinary research center at Brown University, Rhode Island, USA) and with the assistance of Boston University:

  1. #Afghanistan - 5.9 million refugees
  2. #Pakistan - 3.7 million refugees
  3. #Yemen - 4.6 million refugees
  4. #Somalia - 4.3 million refugees
  5. #Philippines - 1.8 million refugees
  6. #Libya - 1.2 million refugees
  7. #Syria - 7.1 million refugees

The report is based on data from 2001 to 2020 + some data collected in 2021.

It is based on the UN data, U.S. documents and information from public sources.

However, the report itself states that 38,000,000 is a very conservative estimate and in reality, the figure can reach from 49,000,000 to 60,000,000, which actually reaches the figures of World War II.

...

To these processes can be added the huge number of refugees from #Ukraine after the U.S.-backed coup d'état and civil war that broke out there.

You Know What They Are

Unfortunately, the vast majority of Americans don’t, and will not believe it until the fireworks start. Even then, they will struggle to believe that war has actually come to the #UnitedStates, a #war that isn’t going to be a #civil war in any sense of the term:

1stResponderMedia posted a video on #X showing an interview with a group of #migrants who illegally crossed the #border 12 miles east of Sasabe, #Arizona, over the weekend. At least one of the migrants in the small group identified himself as an #African migrant from #Morocco.

A second male migrant traveling in the same group responded to a question about his country of origin with an ominous message.

“If you are smart enough, you will know who I am,” the migrant began. “But you are really not smart enough to know who I am. But soon you’re gonna know who I am.”

The migrant then walked away.

These young male migrants are neither #refugees nor conventional #immigrants. They are being brought into the United States to serve as a #PraetorianGuard for the #foreign #elite that is terrified of the reaction of the #US #citizenry to the inevitable #collapse of the #empire that the people never even wanted in the first place.

We wondered what the reaction to the failure of the jump to China would be, and now we know.

The picture below doesn’t show any poor huddled masses yearning to breathe free. It’s a well-funded #army of #mercenaries that only lacks #weapons and #orders to take action. And it’s already present across most of the United States.

#Gaza Emergency Appeal

United in #Humanity, United in Action

More than 2 million people, including 1.7 million Palestine #Refugees, are paying the devastating price of the escalation in the Gaza Strip.

Civilians are dying while the world watches. Airstrikes continue. Families are being displaced en masse. Lifesaving supplies are running out. Humanitarian access is still denied.

Amid these circumstances, hundreds of thousands of displaced people are sheltering inside UNRWA schools. Thousands of our humanitarian workers are there to deliver aid, but food, water, and other essential items will soon be depleted.

#UNRWA is calling for immediate access to humanitarian aid and urgent funding for food and non-food items for #Palestine Refugees in need.

This moment calls for action. Let's stand united for humanity and bring much-needed relief to those who need it most.
