African 'refugees' kill van driver in Calais roadblock.

[Odin]

A driver was killed when a van crashed into lorries that had been forced to stop on a motorway near Calais by a makeshift barrier set up by migrants.

The van, registered in Poland, burst into flames. The driver's identity is not yet known.

Nine Eritreans were found in one of the lorries and taken into police custody.

In 2016, the so-called Jungle migrant camp at Calais was closed, but hundreds of people have returned to the area in the hope of reaching the UK.

Roadblocks, often built from tyres or rocks, were regularly placed on the A16 motorway leading to the port of Calais before the camp was dismantled in October. Migrants aimed to slow lorries down as they approached the port in the hope of climbing on board.

An Eritrean man was killed in an accident involving a British motorist in October. But no further incidents had been reported on the A16 until late last month.

The crash in the early hours of Tuesday was described as the first fatality involving a driver.

Two lorries were forced to stop when tree trunks were placed in the road near Guemps, 12km (8 miles) east of Calais, at around 03:45 local time (01:45 GMT), local media said.

The van was unable to brake in time and ran into the back of them. The driver died at the scene.

Police said the nine Eritreans were being questioned on suspicion of manslaughter.

Several hundred migrants are living in the Calais area in poor conditions. Some 7,000 had lived at the Jungle camp before it was dismantled.

I thought these migrants are poor oppressed people fleeing tyranny and oppression in their shithole homelands, in fear for their lives? Oh wait:



^ Why in the fuck didn't they stop in the other six countries along the route that offered them safety?

The Eritrean “Refugee” Scam–Eritrea Is Not That Bad

The average high temperature in Asmara at 7,600 feet elevation during the warmest month of the year (April) is 77 degrees. Humidity is moderate, rainfall is 20 inches per year. The climate resembles Santa Barbara.

The Eritrean economy is largely propped up by remittances earned by Eritreans abroad. (For example, Eritreans appear to dominate the parking lot attendant gig in Los Angeles.)

The Eritrean government appears to have come up with a brilliant scam for getting Eritreans to the head of the line for immigrating into wealthy white countries. Eritrea nominally has a law making it illegal to leave Eritrea, so all Eritreans who do leave aren’t immigrants, they are refugees!

Plus, the government of Eritrea is not accommodating of letting foreign journalists visit Eritrea, allowing horror stories told by purported refugees to circulate unchecked in the West. Finally, a reporter from Der Spiegel has visited Eritrea and discovered its clean little secret: it’s not so bad.

It’s not so good, either, of course. It’s run by elderly war heroes long past their primes and terrified of being overthrown. But by African standards, it’s more orderly than most countries.

A Visit to ‘Africa’s North Korea’

After Syrians, refugees from Eritrea have the best chance of gaining asylum in Germany. But are conditions in the isolated one-party state really so brutal?



The woman smiles as she looks out the window, happy to be returning home. She is about to arrive in the Eritrean capital Asmara, a city in a valley surrounded by verdant mountains, having flown in from Frankfurt, with a stopover in Dubai. She is a middle-aged Eritrean woman who was granted political asylum in Germany, a woman who fled her country but is now returning voluntarily. She chooses to remain anonymous, because in Eritrea, illegally leaving the country is a jailable offense.

She is traveling to Eritrea as if she were a tourist. Everything proceeds normally as she passes through passport control, baggage claim and customs. She is planning to visit her family, and has brought along gifts and money for them, before boarding her return flight to Germany in two weeks. “Many are doing this,” she says, getting into a taxi. But how is it possible that people can travel unobstructed back to their native country, one decried as an evil dictatorship and accused of brutally oppressing its citizens?

Similarly, lots of Persian Jews in Beverly Hills take annual vacations back home in Iran, which can be puzzling to the more true believer neocons.

According to the government, 116,000 Eritrean refugees visited their native country last year alone. But can the figures of a regime that manipulates statistics be trusted? And what explains the visits by Eritrean expatriates? An aid worker from Finland provides an answer: The government tolerates the returnees because they bring foreign currency to the impoverished nation and are also a source of income in the form of the so-called “development tax.”

Eritrea is still run by aging national liberation warriors who won independence from Ethiopia in 1991. They conscript all young people and put many to work on labor projects for years.

Indeed, in some months it is thought that up to 5,000 young men and women flee the country. In late 2015, the UN Refugee Agency counted 474,296 refugees from Eritrea, or 10 percent of the country’s population of 5 million. Some 92 percent of the Eritreans who applied for asylum in Germany in 2016 were recognized, while 81 percent were recognized in 2017. Syrian refugees were the only group with a higher acceptance rate.

Eritrean refugees base their asylum applications on human rights violations, which are sharply criticized by the United Nations. The UN report soberly concludes that the regime in Eritrea employs “totalitarian practices” that instill a constant state of fear in its citizens.

At first glance, there is no evidence of this fear in Asmara. People go about their business in the city’s markets, young women wearing jeans walk along the streets and men sit chatting in the cafes.

Eritrea is one of the last Bonapartist-Nasserite regimes run by secular modernizing military men. They figure if they stepped down, the Muslims and Christian would be at each other’s throats in a few minutes.

Or maybe they just like being in power.

Anyway, it’s in the interest of both the regime and the emigres for stories to circulate about how horrible things are back in Eritrea so the Eritreans get refugee status and can send money home

Time to send them back to where they came from

Send the army to Calais, shoot to kill, all of them. Then the jungle will not be reestablished. And illegal niggers in general will get the message. This approach would work greatly since it would appeal directly to the basic arab/nigger mind. "Oh if I do that then I get a bullet, so I cant do that".
