Migrating Across the Mediterranean

[Obama and friends have created something that it is so monstrous in intent and ruthlessness that it is incomprehensible to most "normal" human beings.  The CIA has weaponized the refugees who flood the highways surrounding the live war zones, or die in great numbers, while bobbing about on the Mediterranean.  In modern Imperial warfare, they are just a free-flowing asset, that can be turned on and off whenever and wherever the Empire needs them.

This can best be described as a reverse "human wave assault" tactic (the Chinese tactic which literally cost us the Korean War).  Waves of armed men have been replaced by mobile masses of the poorest and most desperate human beings on the face of the planet, who can be covertly directed to overrun "enemy lines," which impede the Empire's progress.  This strategy of using human beings as an ocean of refuse causes far more damage than could have been wrought in a controlled attack.  More important, is that it is acceptable to use brutal violence against attackers, while refugees have to be fed, clothed and cared for, in a transparent humanitarian operation.

Now we see the two major strategies of the CIA and State Dept. merging in Libya and the other puppet states of North Africa.  This is enabling a greater international strategy to legally bind the EU to American will, utilizing the terror war (which generates both refugees and new terrorists, in large numbers) to provide the human fodder needed by State Dept. in its  campaign to use refugees and the UN. The State Dept. is Washington's "spear," which is being wielded to create a legal mechanism for forcing European compliance with American directives, pertaining to refugees and the international migration of the unwanted.

If the new Libyan Interior minister has threatened to unleash his substantial refugee weapon against Europe, it is because that is what his international bosses want him to do next.  It is NO COINCIDENCE that a tsunami of African refugees has been set in motion upon all of the main arteries of North Africa, just as they are needed for the invasion of Europe, where Obama will use them as a living battering ram to knock-down the wall separating Africa and Europe.  Africa's poor and destitute have long been suffering and waiting in the wings, much like the people of Palestine, who have served as everyone's pawns, moving the international drama forward.

"At least 14 migrants found dead in sea north of Libya" Associated Press   May 13, 2014

ROME — A boat crowded with migrants sank Monday in the Mediterranean Sea just beyond Libya’s territorial waters, killing at least 14 people, according to the Italian navy, which helped rescue more than 200 survivors.

A tugboat that was traveling between oil platforms in the area spotted the vessel in difficulty and was the first to come to the rescue when it overturned and sank, said a navy spokesman, Captain Marco Maccaroni.

Maccaroni said seas were calm and it was unclear what caused the migrants’ boat to go down. But he added that overloaded boats carrying migrants often capsize when the occupants see another vessel nearby: ‘‘They all move to one side, causing their boat to tip over.’’

By nightfall, 206 people had been rescued, the navy official said. He said it wasn’t clear if any people were missing because the exact number of migrants who set out on the boat was not known.

Nationalities of the survivors and dead had not yet been determined.

The sinking occurred about 100 miles south of the tiny Sicilian island of Lampedusa and about 40 miles north of the Libyan coast, Italian authorities said. An Italian frigate and a patrol boat rushed to the scene along with two Italian coast guard boats and a boat from the Italian border police fleet. Several cargo vessels in the vicinity also aided the rescue efforts.

Also Monday, Libyan naval forces rescued 450 migrants off that country’s coastline. They were aboard a vessel making an illegal journey to Europe, said Mahmoud al-Akhsham, a Libyan naval official.

"Smuggling boats capsize off Greece, 22 migrants drown" | Associated Press   May 06, 2014

ATHENS — At least 22 people, including families trapped in a flooded cabin, drowned when a yacht and a dinghy crammed with migrants trying to slip into Greece capsized Monday in the eastern Aegean Sea, authorities said.

Rescue teams led a search for up to seven people missing, in what was one of the deadliest migrant boat accidents in Greek waters in recent years and the third fatal one this year. Many on board were from war-torn or unstable countries in the Middle East and Africa.

The vessels overturned before dawn off the island of Samos, a favorite destination for migrant-smuggling gangs because it is close to the Turkish coast. The Greek coast guard said it was not immediately clear what caused the overloaded craft to capsize.

The terrorists can now take direct flights from Turkey.

Photos showed a dead woman clasping a dead child in her arms inside the yacht, as coast guards hoisted the vessel upright with a crane.

Oh, man!

Greece’s merchant marine minister, Miltiadis Varvitsiotis, said he was ‘‘devastated’’ by the incident, adding that the government would press other European Union members to draw up a joint plan to fight migrant smugglers more effectively.

‘‘Modern-day slave traders are making a fortune by placing thousands of people’s lives at risk, putting them on small and unsuitable boats at night in the Aegean,’’ he said.

That's a stain on someone.

Despite the deep financial crisis that brought Greece to the brink of bankruptcy four years ago, the country remains a major entry point for people from poor or war-ravaged parts of Asia and Africa seeking a better life in the 28-nation European Union.

Thanks to Obummer's wars!

"Migrants storm into Spanish enclave" by Paul Schemm and Ciaran Giles | Associated Press   March 19, 2014

RABAT, Morocco — Some 500 stone-throwing migrants from sub-Saharan Africa forced their way into the Spanish enclave of Melilla from Morocco on Tuesday in one of the biggest illegal border-crossings of recent years, Spanish and Moroccan officials said.

Moroccan police said they arrested some 250 people in two attempts by migrants to charge the border before 8 a.m., when the group of about 500 scrambled over the barbed-wire fences that separate the Mediterranean coastal city enclave from Morocco.

The Spanish Interior Ministry delegate in Melilla, Abdelmalik El Barkani, announced police reinforcements for the border, saying there was still a great number of migrants waiting for a chance to try to scale the fences.

Thousands of sub-Saharan migrants seeking a better life in Europe are living illegally in Morocco and try to enter Melilla and Spain’s other Mediterranean coastal enclave, Ceuta.

More than a thousand are estimated to have made it across since the beginning of the year, roughly equal to the total for all of last year.

In the past month, assaults on the enclave have picked up pace. At least 15 migrants drowned in Moroccan waters Feb. 6 while trying to swim to Ceuta, also a Spanish enclave.

Just kill 'em all.
