They will if those are their orders.

Easy to say, as militaries are supposed to follow orders,but they're as human as you and I. I suspect if the Coast Guard was order to let people drown, there would be a lot more insubordination, and/or a lot less Coast Guards.

There's a reason the vast majority of Italian Carabinieri are from Mezzogiorno. Around 3 in 4 come from not just the south but especially Sicily, Campania and Calabria.

I suppose the same is true of the Armed Forces as a whole.

I believe the BBC did an article on a town in Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy, where the entire Carabinieri force is from Campania, region of Naples.

To put this into a better analogy - imagine if the entire CBP on Mexico's border are Evangelicals from Deep South.

They really don't care. And given that they see what illegal migration has done to their hometowns, they are likely not to care even more.

^ historically, center-rightist government favoured 'illegal' immigration. illegal means more or less not qualified and low salary workers for easy task 'entrepeneurship'.

it means the 'informal economy', this is why. it is golden eggs flow for 'center-right'. they won t tolerate a dedicated ad efficient custom border, never. they would loose money.

Plus the convention explicitly states that the rescuing party needs to be "informed of their [lost at sea] distress"

Can't be informed if you choose to not care :)

Well since you want Italy to abandon its territorial waters I suppose it follows that you want Italy to stop having coast guard patrols.

It's kinda weird that you say that the moral thing to do is rescue people, but also you seem to want very badly to find a way to justifiably let them drown.

Safety and nationhood > Morality

I take no shame in saying that I would want my leader to launch a nuke on a civilian city akin to Hiroshima if it meant saving the nation. I also take no shame in saying that illegals shouldn't be rescued if it means that's the only way to run a country properly with an actual workable, popular and justifiable immigration policy.

Again, any drownings are on liberals. First you invite them here by placing a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, then you moan when people say GTFO. Moderates and conservatives have no issue with helping people escape conflict or not drown. We do have a problem with this being used as an excuse for permanent migration. So I'd rather not help than see the country flooded with people escaping Mogadishu. That dead Syrian kid? Liberal's fault.

How so? Illegally crossing a vast sea via raft and attempting to just enter a country sounds rather illegal, especially when they have specified they don’t want this happening.

The country doesn't want them, and law cannot be changed. The only option is to flout the law in the name of common sense.
