Thankfully apart from one worrying stop at a road block they made it to airport and bribed a private plane owner to take them.

Call them what you want I call them survivors brave survivors.

They all made it although auntie died about two weeks after arriving her internal injuries from being raped just over took her.

So you tell me why don't people stay and fight ? Why do they run ?
Obviously the women and children should be allowed to migrate, but this is not what we are seeing today Julie is it? Most of the migrants are healthy fit young men, who have left their women and children behind to suffer their fate.

I would never leave my family if they were in danger, I would stay and fight until my last breath with whatever weapons I could find.

Re: African migrants protest against Israel's plans to deport them.

I can't help thinking Israel have got the right idea.

It's whether they fully enforce it and carry out their threat to imprison them.. and for how long? .... that will earn them some flak. Jews ... suffered imprisonment ... now imprisoning refugees. Given their own history it does sound bad.

But this is a little different. Like a load of other countries they're seeing an influx of economic migrants who spot a place and expect hand outs. Are they like European wannabes? Young chaps in their 20's?
I can't say I blame them for making a stand and trying to draw a line. I doubt they'll be bothered about any international condemnation over it either.

I can't guarantee what's going on of course but those travelling across seas in boats etc it may only be fit young men surviving or they may be coming first to find a safe place for their families. Or may be economic migrants rather than true asylum seekers.

I completely agree, and I think it's ridiculous that we and other European countries don't do the same.

Either we do the same or, sooner or later, we lose our national identity completely and, before long, become just another third world country.

Long after I've gone, hopefully, but the lovely snowflakes will at least feel happy.

Good for you, Israel. Yet another reason why I admire you.

Re: African migrants protest against Israel's plans to deport them.

Choose your blunt arrows with more care JBR.
All you've done is show you don't really understand any of my posts on any thread I post on which concerns Israel.
I take it you're just feeling a little peeved and poking your stick ..rather ineffectually too I might add.

I'd be grateful if, as I suspect, you disagree with what I say, you would do me the favour of putting me on 'ignore'.

In return, I promise not to engage further with you.

Re: African migrants protest against Israel's plans to deport them.

It's a discussion forum JBR ... we agitate the brain cells, we agitate the fingers instead of agitating the jaw to convey our views.

I can see you are ... agitated ... if I see you have expressed a view I disagree with I will state a counter argument if I feel it merits one.

Which includes unnecessary swipes at me.

Absolutely !
How dare people criticise Israel ( and ourselves for that matter ) for its humanity while ignoring all the surrounding countries who wouldn't entertain the idea of illegal immigrants much less Africans who many Arabs consider inferior .

The Zionist Dream
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-32813056

True to its Zionist dream of being a haven for Jews, the Jewish state embarked on risky and expensive rescue operations in the 1980s and 1990s.

These brought tens of thousands of Jews from remote parts of Ethiopia, who had suffered from religious persecution, famine and civil wars.


...
No PD they are not the Ethiopian Jews they are illegal immigrants from Eritrea and The Sudan.
