Cameron’s decision to take in more Syrian refugees is welcome but late
Anna Sonny, 4 September 2015
For weeks Prime Minister David Cameron has been arguing that allowing more refugees from the Middle East and Africa into the UK would encourage even more arrivals. His stance was that the focus should be on dealing with the cause of instability in the region by trying to encourage a political settlement in Syria.
The Prime Minister had a point about dealing with the root cause of the crisis, but as the number of refugees continued to swell, taking one sole course of action became increasingly inefficient. In the time it would take to establish a settlement –which is no small feat – how many more tens of thousands of refugees will arrive in Europe and how many more thousands will die in the attempt?
The heart-breaking images of the three year-old Aylan Kurdi lying lifeless on a Turkish beach have reinforced that this crisis has a high human cost which cannot be confused with the political football of immigration. As mentioned in a previous blog, asylum seekers, refugees and economic migrants all crowd underneath the umbrella term ‘migrant’; these vast figures represent people who are risking their lives to flee from war-torn countries and abject poverty.
It has taken the UK government far too long to recognise the humanitarian crisis – in Iceland citizens are pledging to make room for refugees in their own houses – but Cameron’s decision to provide resettlement to thousands more Syrian refugees is welcome. So far the UK has taken in 216 refugees from Syria under the Vulnerable Person’s Relocation Scheme. Approximately 5,000 further Syrians have been granted asylum after travelling to the UK on their own.
There are concerns that agreeing to take in more refugees will increase the pull factors. But this is not a question of choice; refugees are not being pulled to European countries, they are being pushed out of their own, forced out of their homes and dying in their attempt to get here.
When it comes to foreign policy the EU is often slow to respond and incohesive – naturally, with different member states having different national priorities– but German Chancellor Angela Merkel has shown strong leadership in dealing with the crisis by not just taking one course of action. Germany is expecting to register 800,000 asylum-seekers this year, and Merkel is also pushing for a joint transfer system for refugees in which all Schengen members take part.
Cameron’s change in tone is welcome but late, and he could learn from Merkel who is pushing for a collective solution while also shouldering a large share of refugees: one course of action is not enough to deal with this crisis.
The position is gruesomely simple: those in the First World either wish to defend the their own territory by any means and by doing so preserve their way of life and safety , or will allow a fatal sentimentality to paralyse the entirely natural wish to stop invaders until the native populations of the First World are at best a tolerated minority in their own ancestral lands and at worst the subject of acts of genocide.
If you think that the First World is not in danger think on these facts:
– The population of the world is approximately 7 billion. At the most generous estimate only one billion live in the First World.
– The population of the world is estimated to grow by another two billion by 2050 with all the growth being in the Third World.
– The First World already has large minorities of those from racial and ethnic groups whose antecedents are in the Third World and who have had their sense of victimhood at the hands of whites fed assiduously by white liberals for over 50 years. These are potential fifth columns.
– Political power in most of the First World is in the hands of politicians who are Quislings in the service of internationalism in its modern guise of globalism.
– Those working in the mass media of the First World share the ideology of First World politicians with bells on, missing no chance to propagandise in favour of mass immigration.
– The First World is promoting its own destruction by feeding the Third World with huge amounts of Aid . This promotes war throughout the Third World (providing a driver for Third World immigrants to the First World) and, most importantly, increases the populations of the Third World.
At present the mainstream media in countries such as Britain and the USA are voraciously feeding the public what amounts to be propaganda to persuade them to accept not merely huge numbers of Third World immigrants now, but an ongoing and ever increasing stream in the not too distant future.
It is easy to be swayed by photos of a young child who has died or boatloads crammed to the gunnels with miserable looking people to the point where the resolution to defend your native territory is overridden, but look at the aggression and sense of entitlement the invaders, for what they are, as they battle to leave Hungary. They are in the position of supplicants but far from begging for help they demand as a right that they be let into the richer countries of Europe.
Those amongst the native populations of the First World who propagandise in favour of mass immigration do so in the belief that they will be untouched by the immigration because they live in affluent areas where immigrants cannot generally settle. Not for these people state schools which “boast” that “there are 100 languages here”; not for these people a need for increasingly scarce affordable (social) housing in places such as London; not for these people having to use grossly over subscribed medical services in their area. These people think they are safe from the effects of mass immigration but if it continues their children and grandchildren will not be so lucky.
This is conquest not by armed force but by those who are come equipped with their victimhood and misery and, most potently,the mentality of the elites in the First World who subscribe to the idea of white guilt and the white populations of the First World who have been browbeaten into believing that they cannot have any world other than a globalist world which includes huge movements of peoples. We are seeing the scenario described by Jean Raspail begin to play out.
If you wish to save your country ignore the misery being waved in your face and concentrate not on the immediate present but the future.
