You will find all sorts of individuals in life. Some of these profess to have good intentions and others not. It is this factor that one must analyze. There is also clean politics and dirty politics, and it is difficult to know beforehand unless you are a part of it.
To some, the illegal immigration issue is business as usual, while to others it is damaging. While there may be a certain quantity of persons seeking asylum, this in itself can be used to invade a country with an unwanted, dangerous culture and without firing a single bullet, they play on the religious sentiments of a tiny population like ours.
In a few years you will see the country being taken over, and those who have been through wars and hard labour to achieve some decent lifestyle will find themselves starting all over again. Dirty lobbying is part of the enemy to the people. This is done both locally and abroad, by putting pressure on the Governments to accept a humane statute. The United Nations should work to clean corrupted governments so that these people could live in their own country, and I urge the government and the opposition parties to work together on this issue and defend our rights as Maltese from illegal immigration.
Reading Phillip Micallef’s comment on history and racism, minority and Catholics (‘Migrants welcome’, 31 August), the facts are these:
a) These people took it upon themselves to risk their lives;
b) They are illegally landing in our sovereign state of Malta;
c) Malta is too small and congested;
d) Malta cannot provide all the requirements such as work housing, etc.
History has shown through the ages that no tribe has held its independence once they were invaded by other nation. It also shows that their cultures died and became a minority and swept aside by the invader. Racist? How dare you call others that? They are voicing their disapproval of this situation. Excuse me, but if you want to help these people go and converse with the UN to clean corrupted governments.
Lastly I believe as ex mariner that it is difficult to sail in a rubber dinghy unless helped by a fishing boat or a submarine. I also believe that there is a conspiracy so that these people are being used to destabilise our country and Europe, that they have devised connections here in Malta and elsewhere.
Information is collected from the same families connected with the already arrivals making communications as to the ways and means to withhold information, and the procedures carried out on arrivals.
