US to send migrants to Europe – CBS
https://www.rt.com/news/598511-us-migrants-italy-greece/
Given an experience that I had recently, coming very close to the actual working of this migrant caravan from the most Southern point in the Americas (Brazil) through to Mexico and all points in between, and seeing (no, I did not see it but one can count, not so?) the organization and funds involved here, this headline of course caught my attention.
But then I looked at the numbers. Greece and Italy would likely accept “roughly 500 or fewer” migrants each under the new arrangements, which have not yet been officially announced, one source told CBS.
A State Department spokesperson told the outlet that “we are in diplomatic discussions with other countries about joining this initiative to expand lawful pathways for resettlement, but have no additional information to share at this time.” Greek and Italian governments did not respond to requests for comment by CBS.
Both countries, as well as Spain, have been dealing with thousands of migrants crossing the Mediterranean from Africa and the Middle East, seeking asylum and social services offered by the EU.
In this hemisphere, there are Safe Mobility Offices (SMO) set up. The Guatemala office processes only requests from Guatemalans. Only Nicaraguans and Venezuelans may apply in Costa Rica. The Colombia office accepts claims by Cubans, Haitians and Venezuelans. The office in Ecuador can process requests by Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, Venezuelans and Colombians.
According to the US State Department, the SMOs have “enabled a six-fold increase in the number of refugees resettled from the Western Hemisphere.”
So, there you have it. 500 or Fewer is a joke. There are literally hundreds of thousands if not millions of migrants on the move. This will completely change the complexion of the west who inherited European features. Imagine taking on a journey on foot, family and all, of 3,000 kilometers to attempt to improve your lot in life.
I have two t-shirts of the most lovely quality for T’s. They say, let us all help our community. Sorry USAmericans, but the Indians have won.
Amarynth, please don’t do any more work than you already do, by responding to this comment, but if you could file it away in your mind for another time: I’m really curious to know how the majority of immigrants to the US – whether legal or not – view the… Read more »
Grieved, there are some things that I don’t want to talk about in public. In general to ask those kinds of questions without being in a formal ‘study group’ may be dangerous. I did my share though, and around the coffee pot or the food or the laundry (laundry is… Read more »
Thank you. They sound like good people to me. One hears about the political underpinnings of the wave of illegal immigration in the US, and the tales of contrived exodus heading north, etc. We never hear much about the people themselves except they’re “military aged men.” From your report it… Read more »
I have little knowledge, not having tracked these massive migrations. But considering the limitless narcissism and pathopsychology of imperial elites… and their mighty work to depopulate mankind.. we can safely say additional impulses are at play against the migrants themselves. First, seeing seas of streaming populations coming to the new… Read more »
This is a good development. More people from the Global South should move into Europe either legally or illegally. It would help change the demographic landscape, and most importantly would reduce the white Christian population. Also, the new migrants would be a huge burden on the EU, ultimately leading to… Read more »
Care to elaborate on how/why you think the reduction of the white Christian population is a good thing? Is that not what (the likes of) Soros and the other neocons want?
