"If We Don't Find A Solution Today, It's The End Of The European Union" - Refugee Crisis Hits Tipping Point
After escalating for months, Europe's refugee crisis hit its most serious tipping point yet, when when earlier today European Union leaders held a mini-summit on Sunday debating whether to send hundreds of guards to its borders with the western Balkans, as well as deploying more ships off Greece, as the bloc seeks to balance Germany's welcome for refugees with tougher security measures.
So far, over 680,000 migrants and refugees have crossed to Europe by sea so far this year, fleeing war and poverty in the Middle East, Africa and Asia, according to the International Organization for Migration. Their goal has been Germany, which has promised sanctuary, however as a result of a populist backlash and concerns over the economy, Merkel's popularity has taken a major hit, sliding to the lowest level in four years.

Taking place just two weeks after a full EU summit, the meeting was sought by German Chancellor Angela Merkel. According to Reuters, "many see it as an attempt by Juncker and Merkel to raise pressure on central and southeast European states to coordinate among themselves in managing the migration flow in a more humane way and end a series of unilateral actions."
Central and eastern European leaders meeting in Brussels may agree to send 400 border guards and set up new checkpoints if the EU's frontier states drop their policy of giving arrivals passage to other countries, according to a draft statement seen by Reuters that must still be agreed.
According to Reuters, the draft said that "we commit to immediately increase our efforts to manage our borders," which, if formalized, would be a 16-point plan and the latest step in drawing up a common approach to dealing with the thousands of migrants streaming into the EU every day from the Middle East, North Africa and Afghanistan.
Jean-Claude Juncker, the EU's chief executive, has called leaders of Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Romania, Serbia and Slovenia, plus refugee organizations involved, to attend the meeting in Brussels.
Europe has been forced to tread lightly as Bulgaria, Serbia and Romania said they would close their borders if Germany or other countries shut the door on refugees, warning they would not let the Balkan region become a "buffer zone" for stranded migrants.
In recent week, the fate of the European "Schengen" Customs Union has been in doubt following Hungary's decision to close its border with Serbia and Croatia which prompted others to follow, stranding tens of thousands in dire conditions as temperatures drop.
The traditional European response to another systemic risk has been the usual fallback: chaos, as the European Union has been so far unable to implement a coherent, credible response.
Rights group Amnesty International said the 28-country bloc could not afford to end another meeting without an agreed plan. "As winter looms, the sight of thousands of refugees sleeping rough as they make their way through Europe represents a damning indictment of the European Union's failure to offer a coordinated response to the refugee crisis," said John Dalhuisen, Amnesty's director for Europe and Central Asia.
And while Europe dithers, the lack of a common policy is straining ties between European leaders, raising questions about the EU's future.
It was just a few days ago that Hungary warned that Europe's future is at stake, when it announced it would seal its border with Croatia. "This is the second-best option," Hungarian foreign minister Szijjarto told reporters. "The best option, setting up an EU force to defend Greece’s external borders, was rejected in Brussels yesterday."
Now others are joining in.
Yesterday, it was the turn of Austrian Chancellor Werner Faymann who told the Austrian Kronen Zeitung that “now the speech is about either a common Europe or about a quiet collapse of the European Union. One path is burdensome, difficult and supposedly long and the other one would lead to the chaos."
Then moments ago, Slovenia Prime Minister was quoted by Reuters during his arrival at the latest mini-summit, as saying "if European leaders fail to agree a plan to counter the sudden inflows of refugees, it could mean the end of the European Union."
"If we don't find a solution today, if we don't do everything we can today, then it is the end of the European Union as such," Prime Minister Miro Cerar said. "If we don't deliver concrete action, I believe Europe will start falling apart," he told reporters.
Considering this is the same Europe, which five years after the first Greek default has been unable to find any solution to its economic troubles - or at least a solution that does not benefit only the top 1% - aside from kicking the can time and again and covering up record amounts of debt with even more debt, we are skeptical Europe will "deliver concrete action" today, or at any one point in the near and not so near future.
Which means more crises, more summits, more confusion, more human suffering and tragedy.
Which may be just what Europe wants.
Tecall the prophetic 2008 AIG report on "Empire Europe" which explained in 4 simple bullet points just what Europe wants:
AIG's explanation: "To use global issues as excuses to extend its power"
- environmental issues: increase control over member countries; advance idea of global governance
- terrorism: use excuse for greater control over police and judicial issues; increase extent of surveillance
- global financial crisis: kill two birds (free market; Anglo-Saxon economies) with one stone (Europe-wide regulator; attempts at global financial governance)
- EMU: create a crisis to force introduction of “European economic government”
And there it is: in four simple bullet points laid out in a 7 year old presentation, a prediction which has come true time and again: from the endless Greek bailouts, to the austerity paradox, to European youth unemployment stubbornly flat at 50% for years in many "southern" European nations, to Europe's QE creating the deflationary impulse it is said to be fighting against, and now - to the "refugee crisis", it is all playing out as if according to some unseen script.

You are "safe". They don't like the salaries you give..

I ruefully regretted that the pilots of 9-11 flew into the Twin Towers and not the building located at Turtle Bay.
That's because you no longer believe in nation states. Fuck the UN
End of the EU? Not a moment too soon. When Slovenia decides she's had enough, the door to freedom in the Eurasian Union will be open.
What continues to puzzle me is why Europe's national members of NATO continue to create new Moslem refugees by bombing their homes. Surely it's only common sense to let them live at home in peace. Tell me - what else has the NATO bombing achieved besides the pell-mell invasion of Europe by the victims?

God bless the Liberals for slowly destroying civilized society.
In 100 years, you will have beautiful Arabic-design buildings like the Alhambra all over Europe. And the Muslims will likely invent some new musical instruments like the guitar which they created in Spain. And just as the Moors preserved Plato and Aristotle while their books were being burned in Europe, the European Muslims will end up preserving the works of Ludwig von Mises and other visionaries that are rejected as heresy in the modern West. European Civilization will be renewed, it will just have an Islamic flavor as it did in Spain.
Either that or they will rip down the existing pinnacles of history?
Bunk.
No suckling of your baby boy's penis on arrival? Think about this for a minute. WHAT KIND OF MAN DOES THAT?
The people who downvoted you take everything in the first degree. It's not a wonder civilization is crumbling.
.
Liberals. Are the liberals in the ME stealing oil, blowing up infrastructure, bulldozing homes, "expanding borders?" No. Israel is behind this mess. They hate Arabs, you see. There is a rumor they hate everyone including "goy." They want to rule the world because, they have concluded, no one else can do it but them. We are just too stupid. So, they are taking over. Control the money. Control the food. Control the people. That was not a liberal statement, that I recall. So-called progressives are double agents, working for the master, crying "THE ICE IS MELTING" and we must tax everyone, crying "FREE THE EARTH" from the peasants while they spill toxic waste into our waters, soil and air. This is the 21st century approach to war in 1st world. Taking over the airwaves/communication is the first step of an invading army.
God bless the innocent. Blame the Israeli govt and their loyal band of murders for this piece of shoddy workmanship.
Just remember, none of this is an accident. It's all by design.
BTW, EU is about to introduce wider gun control, just heads up.
Excellent!
Now if word would get out to the invading hordes that Brussels is the place to be in Europe we can finally achieve the slaughter of the innocents.
"if European leaders fail to agree a plan to counter the sudden inflows of refugees, it could mean the end of the European Union."
That would be a good thing.
The EU is a faulty creation in the first place; there's no need for it.
Time and again, it has failed to manage much well, and it is not handling the onslaught of refugees well either.
It aided and abetted the U.S. in destabilizing much of the Middle East WITHOUT any long term commitment to transform it.
The truth is, good jobs matter to everyone who wants to rise from despotic poverty, and if EU citizens themselves are struggling to maintain employment and standards of living, in the face of outsourced incomes, they're in no position to plant the seeds of prosperity elsewhere. You see, the despicable menace that is the western corporate mind makes extremely narrow-minded decisions that have much broader impact than just one fiscal quarter or one year's profits. It affects home AND abroad...for decades.
For example, would Greece have endured what IT'S going through were outsourced German jobs sent to them, instead of...China?
What kind of position might the EU (indeed the west) have been in to help war-torn regions like the Middle East were it strong economically? Europeans are angry because of the cultural threat such masses pose for Europe. But...they are ALSO deeply concerned about additional competition for income-producing jobs. There are NO throwaway jobs in most of Europe.
Thanks to decades of weakening corporate outsourcing, there aren't many good ones left either, and as long as these bastards in the c-suites game the fundamentals with things like share buybacks--instead of real capex and human resource development, there likely won't be.
If any of this seems sketchy, fine. Think about it a bit.
How much different does the world work when developed economies generate good quality, income-producing jobs for their citizens?
How much larger do issues seem when the middle class struggles to this degree?
How can Europe, or anyone else, project strength and hope abroad when they are so devoid of it themselves?
How did that happen?

And once Hillary is elected and takes all of our firearms she will flood all US will tens of millions of “poor me” Muslims from all over the world (who will vote for the dems forever). Those who protest what is happening to their community (without any means to revolt) will be shown a brutal police state “welcome to the new America” beating and long jail sentence because they are treated as “terrorists” trying to hurt the new “poor me “ ISIS replants.
Just FYI -- most American Muslims were Republicans and voted for George W Bush in 2000 thinking that he would stand up to the Israelis like his dad did. That all changed after Bush II revealed that he was in league with the Zionists and their evangelical stooges during the Iraq war.
Most of my Muslim friends are disgusted with both major parties at this point, and many are registering as Libertarian. Ron Paul is their hero, not Hillary.
@Rhett72
Muslims are overwhelmingly Demonrat voters.
While it is claimed that they voted for Bush it is uncertain.
However today, not 15 years ago, it is CLEAR that they are like the Latinos and the Africans and the Asians, ENEMIES of the historic American people.
Sure there are a handful of White Muslims who are, indeed, libertarian, but they are a tiny minority. I refer to American Whites who converted to Islam. There may also be a handful of Arab Muslims who are self-identifying as White but that would be quite rare.
World Relief targeting Northern Idaho for refugee resettlement!
Connecticut Senator Blumenthal (OY!) wants more Syrians here faster, proposes to eliminate some screening
If that's the case your muslim friends are not typical muslims, that's for sure.
PCR opines on the European refugee crisis. He makes some good points.
Presstitutes at Their Work
"The Western media has only two tools. One is the outrageous lie. This overused tool no longer works, except on dumbshit Americans...
According to the presstitute reports, the Russia air attacks have only killed civilians and blew up a hospital...
The other tool used by presstitutes is to discuss a problem with no reference to its causes. Yesterday I heard a long discussion on NPR, a corporate and Israeli owned propaganda organ, about the migrant problem in Europe. Yes, migrants, not refugees:
'These migrants have appeared out of nowhere. They have decided to seek a better life in Europe, where capitalism, which provides jobs, freedom, democracy, and women’s rights, guarantees a fulfilling life. Only the West provides a fulfilling life, because it doesn’t yet bomb itself.'
The hords overrunning Europe just suddenly decided to go there. It has nothing to do with Washington’s 14 years of destruction of seven countries, enabled by the dumbship Europeans themselves, who provided cover for the war crimes under such monikers as the “coalition of the willing,” a “NATO operation,” “bringing freedom and democracy.”
From the Western presstitute media you would never know that the millions fleeing into Europe are fleeing American and European bombs that have indiscriminately slaughtered and dislocated millions of Muslim peoples."
What degree of Masonry is PCR? Got to love the hidden hand portrait behind his head at his website. Why do masons always advertise their masonry to the public, like Billary making the devil's horn sign, or George Bush for that matter. Got to show their fealty to Lucifer?
Even the current semi-pope is a hidden-hander. See a photo of him at http://www.barnhardt.biz (scroll down). Don't imagine that he is just scratching himself.
All it takes is 1 European 9-11 to set off a revolt. European intelligence agencies have to right all the time to prevent something like that from happening.
Or one little man with mustache in a bar.
Putschenator.
That danger is real.
Europe should absolutely do something. I recomend send these people someplace warm - like either Syria or Somalia.
The moment you run every last one of these alien invaders out of your countries, you need to march on the houses of power and evict every last one of those reprobates.
I am from Slovenia and I am seriously considering the only logical option. Leaving Europa.
Yes, but for where? Islamization is well under way everywhere on earth.
If you're not Jewish (qualifying yourself for Israeli citizenship) or rich enough to buy your way into the Muslim-free gated communities of planet earth---Singapore, for example---there's nowhere for you to go.
In your place I'd build myself a time machine, travel back a few years and retrieve Slobodan Milosevic. Tell him he was right about the Muslims and all is forgiven, and to please come back and help save Yugoslavia, if nowhere else can be.
There's nowhere to go in Yurp. It's time for people to band together. Do your shopping in groups rather than going out alone if possible. They can snatch you off the street before you even register what's happening or run you down with a bicycle or motorcycle that comes out of nowhere. They can bump into you in a shopping mall, spill their groceries and make a scene that it's your fault, whereupon a veritable lynch mob shows up in an instant. Always do things in groups and do not go out at night. Always go where there are plenty of people. Learn to have a sixth sense for people who are following you. Keep in mind that they work hand-in-hand with local criminals who are also on your tail. Keep your eyes open and avoid sneaky looking people with cell phones at their ear. Never walk down a street without looking behind you. Learn where the terrorists are in your neighborhood and avoid being seen by those people as much as possible. Do not allow the inside of your apartment or home to be seen from the street. Do not have a regular rhythm or take the same routes--they study your habits. Carry all your bank cards in electronically sealed holders or wrapped in aluminum foil (same goes with wifi devices). Do not use smart phones and take the batteries out of your mobile phone when you go out (they use fake imsi towers to triangulate your position). Turn off location services on all your devices. Use ethernet cables for the internet and turn off wifi. Always keep your apartment doors locked and make sure you have exterior doors that cannot be kicked in. Use only a low tech cord phone as they listen in on your wireless handset calls. Always take a door jamb with you for hotels when you travel. Be alert when using public transportation keeping an eye on suspicious looking people who may be following you or reporting your whereabouts using sms. Avoid parking garages. They also track you from country to country so don't drop your guard. Don't count on the police to keep you safe. Pray the rosary and wear the scapular.
This is WWIII even if only one side knows it.
Jeezus dude. I thought I was parnoid. You make me seem like a slacker. But as a cold war vet, I remember those stickers on the phones: THIS LINE IS NOT SECURE.
Congratulations to you! For your insightful and clever response, you have won a new iPhone 4!
Here we go again. Always this threatening with end of the EU when things get a little though.
Why don't they call Europe Europe International Group?
What continues to puzzle me is why Europe's national members of NATO continue to create new Moslem refugees by bombing their homes. Surely it's only common sense to let them live at home in peace. Tell me - what else has the NATO bombing achieved besides the pell-mell invasion of Europe by the victims? Here's my personal summary of the situation.
http://barlowscayman.blogspot.com/2015/09/europes-refugee-problem.html
the EU meeting wasnt to secure borders, it was to direct even more people into the EU but to areas that dont have enough refugees. all the refugees want to go to the same area. the EU cant have that. that is why they move them at night and by private plane/train so that the media cant take pictures. this is all a big joke. they need several million more refugees. the EU has to pretend they are in charge and doing whats best for the people....
How to fuck the EU [nuland & kagan via rumsfeld] and NATO, all the while strengthening the Warsaw Pact satellites? That's the strategy, that what really counts.
I don't remember a police or immigration treaty among the inter-country free-travel with common-border club called Schengen, nor among those of the trade an common regulations club called EU
I see only a few meetings painted in blue and gold instead of what they are: summits of national governments with a problem, i.e. Syria's civil war and it's refugee misery, and no common plan how to tackle it
I see some German-Polish lead, and strong Hungarian opposition to it. I see some common effort with Turkey
I am though amazed about some articles and comments. Many see it as a good kindling for their own usual propaganda showcase bonfires
Of course, the Balkans are again a place where ideas, feelings, power and problems collide, as in Syria
What did you think would happen when you climbed up there and started shouting from the rooftops, "TAKING ALL COMERS. EVERYTHING FREE. COME AND GET IT."
WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING?????????????????

Stasi Roots of the German-Jewish “Anti-Racist” Left and Its Program of Destroying Ethnic Germany
Funny how Germany is having a lot of trouble getting its gold back from the United States.Good way for the Americans to squeeze them into obeying orders from high command with this ongoing economic crisis along with this influx of refugees getting started.Bomb,then have ISIS send them all to Europe.
Note to Europe:
Stop being warmongering Washington's full service cabana boy and you'll do much better.
The U.S. foreign policy destroys the Middle East and North Africa.
What could possibly go wrong for Europe?
Any street kid can tell you from experience; all monkeys of all shades, stripes and spots are out to "get" the White Boy and out to fuck a White Girl.
It's the Gothic invasions all over again. First the refugees. And the initial welcome. And the chaotic ineptitude of local officials overwhelmed by the sheer numbers of comers. Then the ineptitude of central government response. Six months and they start manning the borders with actual troops and shooting. And then they'll be shocked, just SHOCKED when the "refugees" suddenly show up as fully armed gangs bigger than the rather small armies that European states can muster.
The only good solution is to turn back the initial, "peaceful" refugees decisively, before there are enough settled in to act as a welcoming committee for their fellow countrymen charging the gates. And Europe already muffed that one years ago. So now the only solution is genocide, and they aren't going to have the guts for that one. Nor for mandatory conversion, which is the only way to prevent eventually being subsumed under an Islamic State which will outlaw the practice of both Christianity and rationalism.
Ahimsa is a nice idea, but suicidal when extended to locusts and Yersinia pestis.
It is ever present that it is far easier for the powers that be can obtain and maintain their powers than it is for individuals to secure and maintain their liberties and freedoms.
And, yet, only the natural laws of economics and blood shed keep the pendulum swinging . . . back and forth. . . . giving an opportunity for the other side to reverse course and their roles.
Most of these people just want to go home.
Paul Craig Roberts says: "The hordes overrunning Europe just suddenly decided to go there. It has nothing to do with Washington’s 14 years of destruction of seven countries, enabled by the dumbshit Europeans themselves, who provided cover for the war crimes under such monikers as the “coalition of the willing,” a “NATO operation,” “bringing freedom and democracy.” And yes he said dumbshit...good man.
Mr. Syrian population...looks like you are in a very bad position...you have both the USA and Russia bombing your cities and homeland. Hope Russia can help you rebuild if Assad stays in power. Looks like an improverished and unstable nation...for years to come.
In Slovenia we have around 35.000 refuges. Slovenia has 2.000.000 habitats. Each day 5.000 refuges come from Croatia. Deseases already started like hepatitis, diarhhea, flu.....Slovenia has no money to take care of refugees. Mainly voluntaries are helping those poor people. Winter is coming. We might have -20 degrees Celsius easily. Do your math for Fahrenheits. We have 9.000 professional soldiers and few thousand cops that could work in one shift. I predict that the war will start in Balkan in few months. You can only stop this people from going to Germany using weapon. Muslim brothers will help to protect them. Maybe history will repeat and Turks will help them providing the free path to Germany. I do not see any other option than aggression and usage of weapon. Innocent people will figth each other again, again, again.
Fuck you Bernanke!
I had to say that :)
Slovenia is one of my favorite stops when visiting Europe. So is Croatia. They are positioned to be squeezed between eastern Europea (passing through the hordes) and western Europea (refusing the hordes) when this gets really bad, and it is headed there.
Winter might slow the invasion, but come Spring it will accelerate unless Germany and the EU put out large, unambiguous NOT WELCOME HERE signs. I don't believe they have the stones to do that. It would contradict their happy little misguided liberal rhetoric and disturb their hypocritical belief system. Look for a series of truly idiotic attempts to skate around the reality.
This is simple: Merkel caused the problem by promising sanctuary, benefits and passports in quick time. There would be no invasion had she not done this. So stop with the silly attempts at blame shifting. She and her political buddies own it, and that includes Germans and German supporters in the EU bureaucracy.
This is not just an invasion of Germany; it is an invasion of every country that recognizes an EU passport from Germany as a "good" credential, allowing the Muslim hordes easy access to their first-world nanny-state of choice. Meanwhile Merkel is just trying to distribute the pain and expense she caused and maintain herself in office by any means necessary except backtracking on a stupid and destructive commitment.
Fuck you Merkel!
And thus the CIA, Dept of Defense USA bring about the destruction of Europeane Union by their gross stupidity in the Middle East.
There was a prophetic novel written in 1973 called "Camp of the Saints" written by Jean Raspail who had forseen all of this mass migration. You can get it in english on Amazon for around 9 euros. Get it while you can before the thought police put it on the PC Index of Forbidden Books.
One solution for this migration crises would be to arrest PM David Cameron for secretly participating in the creation and continued bombing of Syria in the civil war there. Arrest him again for bombing Libya and destroying that country. Then arrest HRH Tony Blair for his illegal invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan and destroying those countries.
These countries have all been wrecked, is it any wonder that huge numbers of people are fleeing them?
This is just a ripple.
The pressure wave has not even started yet.
"Under orders from Lieutenant General Jir? Tamon, troops of the 2nd Division moved up the rail line and captured virtually every city along its 730-mile length in a matter of days, occupying Anshan, Haicheng, Kaiyuan, Tiehling, Fushun, Szeping-chieh, Changchun, Kuanchengtzu, Yingkou, Antung, and Penhsihu."
