Dear All
Terrorism has rocked the European mainland again; more than 70
people are believed to have been killed in an attack in the south of France as
people celebrated Bastille Day.
You may remember that I have constantly highlighted that
Europe is on the road to civil war.
So, what are European leaders doing about this?
Pretty much nothing, we have seen Paris, we have seen Cologne
and now we have seen Nice, we have also seen a political class which is on the
verge of being swept away as more people abandon traditional parties in favour
of the right and far right.
In the past, I have highlighted the need for extraordinary
measures, to recap on them.
1/ EU Border Force
2/ EU internal immigration policy for EU citizens
3/ intervention and mobilisation of the military in member states
4/ New EU wide ID card scheme
5/ No non EU economic migrant processed from this crisis and allowed to remain within an EU country which has accept them can travel to any other EU member state. Everyone should be completely documented, if a breach occurred; the person or group will be returned to the EU country they were settled and registered in.

Clearly, there is a serious problem, this problem affects
everyone in Europe, as I said previously; the damage done by Angela Merkel is
the biggest threat to Europe since the Second World War!
Merkel imported terrorism directly in the heart of Europe.
Terrorists have found a new weapon in their arsenal, the use
of trucks as killing weapons; it may be a surprise to some people but not to
me.
Footage of the massacre in Nice shows bodies are laid out
all along a promenade in Nice, in which it can be clearly seen that some people
are lying in pools of blood.
Gunmen in the truck then opened fire after hitting the crowd,
a fire fight then erupted with the French Police.
A police source has reportedly said that identity papers
belong to a 31-year-old French Tunisian man, a resident of Nice, were
found inside the truck.
French president François
Hollande confirmed 77 people were killed; including several children
in what he said was clearly a "terrorist" act.
He added:
"France is badly hit by this tragedy. We are
horrified. But France is strong, and France will always be stronger I assure
you. It is all of France which is under the threat of
Islamic terrorism. So in these circumstances we must show
absolute vigilance and a determination without end."
Nice Mayor Christian Estrosi said:
"This is the worst catastrophe our region has seen in
modern history. We now have to mobilise all of our services, all the
psychologists, volunteers who are trained to help fellow human beings. We will
work with the imams, priests and rabbis who will also join us to help the
victims and families who are suffering and will probably never heal their
wounds. I want to thank people who welcomed passersby and those people who
show us tonight that hopefully, solidarity still exists in a world that is too
egoistical and individualistic."
The reality is that things cannot go back to normal, war has
come to the streets of Europe, and the Promenade des Anglais where so many French
dead are lying including children is now a battlefield.
So far, it looks like our current politicians have no
stomach for doing what needs to be done to safeguard national security, if this
isn’t addressed then don’t be surprised if the far right starts to get seats
and power in elected institutions right across the continent.
You might want to watch this video again by the Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Obron.
Its another marker on the road to civil war in Europe, latest reports say 10 children among the dead of Nice.

ReplyDeleteThe British people have voted on this at the BREXIT referendum, but the politicians are still in denial of the problem. How many more incidents will occur until they eventually start to tackle the issue.
