They are known for accusing aid organisations of being the driving force behind human trafficking.
And by the EU and by Italy there is cause for concern. I know from this side of the channel we were suspicious that some peoples in Europe were working with traffickers when the British had med migrant rescue operations, since withdrawn. They were withdrawn officially because the gov decided that the help was just encouraging more to make the journey, but I heard from one of the people on the missions that migrants had the contact details of British ships they shouldn't have known, which really gets the noggin joggin. Someone in yurop, gov, EU or NGO, was coordinating with traffickers. NGO ships being allowed into the Libyan coast where patrol ships would be fired upon, NGOs being in telephone contact with human traffickers, whether they're being paid or their altruism is being abused, the end result is pretty much the same. More people trying to risk it. And you ask me why NGOs are communicating with slavers is not a good sign for the west
Wahahahahaaa
Sorry LW, my sides are in higher orbit than yours
This was an observable pattern; until the ship hits a whale and asplodes I'll not be laffified sufficiently. The optimal side to launch weight ratio is maintained by the unexpected gut slaughter caused by human pain, because laughter is the strongest way to cope to such things. The greater the misfortune, potential misfortune or perceived misfortune, the greater the reaction. This is why in most British comedies instead of having the main character be likeable and great, emerging victorious from life's problems, the main character is usually deeply flawed and enters into life's failures producing unimaginably worse results. This is why Tom and Jerry with cat noises and cat behaviour is horrible, and why Tom being abused with a human man's voice, mannerisms and behaviour is hilarious, why a Clown must slip and slide on banana peels, or why Comedians must follow two vital rules to be funny: The first being they must hate themselves deeply, the second being they must hate their audience deeply. Absurdity can also be funny, in a Monty Python-esque way of subverted expectation. Now combine Absurdity and Adversity:
A Chinese manufacturing company is selling what it claims are "high-quality refugee boats" that can be delivered by sea, air, or door to door.
The inflatable boats can carry between 25 and 30 passengers and are available in different colours.
The sales, carried on the website of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba, offer buyers a "high-quality refugee boat" for between $800-$1,100. According to the web page, the boats, constructed out of plywood, aluminium and PVC, can carry 25-30 passengers.
Life-jackets are considered "optional equipment".
It's not the first time Alibaba has been caught out selling such boats. Another web page which has since been removed from the site advertised "inflatable rescue refugee boats" as being "not likely to sink".
“The boat has good capacity of anti-sinking,” the advert read. “When the boat is in max loaded condition (even the boat is filled fully with water), the boat still can be float on the water.”
What are we, but kindred sides lost in time, wrenched from us by the curious pain of giggling joy
