By all means, send the fuckers home (yknow, the military aged men) and tell them to go sort out their own problems (I think we should at least accept the vulnerable women and children), but at least wait until they get to land before to kick em back home. Because yknow, if you turn them around in the sea, they might drown and die directly because you turned them around, and then there's a shit storm, plus, I do believe vessels (no matter how unconventional they are) have the freedom of navigation in international waters so it would also be violating international law. At least if you kick em out from home, you aren't doing anything wrong.

I agree with the necessity to cut down on some things like healthcare (tho not all the maternity related shit, we need it to keep our birthrate up) but education and subside are merely investment to keep the country running, reducing them would be folly.
Over all, I'd rather not weaken the State unnecessarily and destroying the welfare state would do that.


Education isn't welfare however. It's a way to skill the population so they can be better workers. On the other hand, healthcare, social security, benefits overall and welfare by itself composes the welfare state.

You do know that that you'd be sending many of those men to their almost immediate deaths? Not all of those refugees are Muslims, many are Christians and many are secularists.

No, because it'll stop all those deportation expenses, and think, less terrorism and crime means more safety and access to resources

Why not just follow my own solution and simply recolonize them and deal with the problem directly 'till they can stand on their own again?
The same result could be achieved but way more easily since we would hold the reins.

Can't do that. If they could, they would have done it to all the human traffickers, be them the one that are honest about their job or the ones that call themselves "humanitarian movements", who are smuggling people over the Mediterranean Sea.
Just listen to some Italians Sailors talk about the fuck they have to go trough during Operation Trident. They're very angry, and legitimately so.

A boat full of refugees isn't a threat. They can be picked up, taken ashore, and processed. Pirates trying to interfere with rescue operations could be a threat. The sea is dangerous. Getting in the way of other boats, especially over-filled RIBs, is dangerous. I don't know if the Italian navy would think that enough to warrant warning shots.

TURTLESHROOM II wrote:I don't get the problem here. These "pirates" are cutting engines from migrant invasion boats and routing them back to Libya where they belong. The invasion of Muslim migrants (many of them hostile and most, but not all, of them men of prime breeding age too cowardly to fight for their nation) should entirely cease. Europe has enough Muslims already, the last we need is more of them.
Haven't the multiple terror attacks performed by these groups that sneak in convinced you enough that this group is NEEDED?

I'm not afraid of Muslims because some of them are terrorists, no.

First, this isn't piracy; piracy is the unlawful boarding of a ship without the ship master's consent (regardless of intent, Greenpeace was charged with piracy for trying to board a Russian oil tanker to protest).

I'm sure forcing other ships to cut their engines and change course is contrary to several laws of the sea.
Second, they're not going to be killing these people where they stand.

Keeping them from being rescued is a small difference from trying to kill them.
Third, European countries are supposed to be doing this by their own laws.

What law requires refusing to aid people in distress at sea?

Simply sending them back to the coast they tried to launch from is neither a crime nor a bad act.

The crime would be in forcing them to stop, forcing them to change course, forcing other ships attempting rescue away.
These people are patriots and governments should subsidize them for as long as they are refusing to do their job.

They're criminals and should be arrested.

Meh, unlike a doctor, we have no oath binding us to try to save the patient or merely look for his best interests so if we get to increase our fees that way... :p

Maybe I'm wrong, or the law has been changed, but I thought it was the law in France that people had a duty to try and help other people in danger, even if only by calling the relevant emergency services.

It's mostly open sea, you don't need permission to travel across it.

Aid their development so that our companies have better access to their resources - now that the DRC is calming down, mining is becoming more profitable there for many firms for instance. In the meanwhile, expel all illegal immigrants trying to come in.

We accept the ones that are willing to integrate into society and do their best to not depend on the state (unless it is absolutely needed, disabilities etc) and kick out the rest of them. There's no point waiting resources that could be directed else where and creating a hassle accepting those that cant accept or embrace a new way of life. A nation has the right to defend its sovereign borders, undocumented migrants storming them from land and from sea in the hundreds of thousands is an invasion, thus, if the government cant protect its borders, subsequently not protecting its citizens, then I cannot be 100% outraged that the citizens have taken it upon themselves to protect their borders. We can't accept everyone because they have some sob story, it will be economically suicidal to do so - instead we can accept some and send the ones not willing to integrate (hardline Muslims etc) to yknow, Arab countries such as Morocco, Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Oman etc, yknow, the countries that have literal empty 4 star apartment blocks and economic resources to do so?

Right... it seems the point of contention in this thread is quite fluid, depending on who disagrees with the morally outraged posters.
