The EU Council of Leaders has dithered for far too long and has not halted the current invasion of the EU by migrants from all the "hot spots" of the world, like Afghanistan, Pakistan, Turkey and Africa and, of course, the Middle East. EU citizens are now worrying about what could happen next !
When Chancellor Merkel in August 2015, out of compassion for Refugees fleeing the oppression in Syria, invited 800 000 to come to work in Germany, the invasion of the EU by Refugees and other Migrants started and quickly got out of hand. A major EU Crisis had begun !
The question is no longer "Can the EU survive ?", it has now become "How long can it last" ! In the absence of any Council Directive, some desperate EU countries have now erected razor-wire fencing to prevent Migrants entering their country. They do not want Migrants to settle : they want to preserve the National identity of their country ! This however, is in defiance of the sacred EU principle of the freedom of movement of people in the EU !
Even when Extremist Muslims started destroying everything in the Middle East to create the Islamic State (IS), EU Leaders failed to act or decide what should be done. Had they taken action, would this not have reduced the number of refugees ?
Do EU Leaders not realise that when exceptional circumstances arise, exceptional measures must be quickly adopted ? Acts of Terrorism or a War like the one IS is waging in the Middle East, means sacred peacetime EU principles must be suspended !
One exceptional measure is being tried : paying billions of Euros to Turkey to house immigrants ! This plan may well prove to be a costly failure in the very near future !
Have all the lessons of the first and second World Wars already been forgotten ? To stop the murderous aggression of the IS should all out War not be declared by ALL Western Powers ? Is this not the only realistic way to stop the flow of Syrian Refugees ?
