Switzerland does not know 90% of identities of asylum seekers

Oct 6, 2017 5:30 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

The problem of asylum seekers arriving into the country with no papers is so extensive the government does not know the true identities of nine out of 10 migrants….between January 1, 2006, and December 31, 2016, Switzerland saw a total of 151,300 asylum seekers register in the country under false identities.

Not only Switzerland, but virtually all Western nations are way in over their heads in trying to cope with the “problem” of asylum seekers. Jihadists have infiltrated the refugee stream while Western authorities have lost control of their borders, and are no longer fulfilling their duties to ensure homeland security.

Jihadists are not only settling into what they consider to be the House of War; they move freely into and out of Western countries to pursue training as mujahideen in foreign lands, so as to advance their mission against Western interests.

“Swiss Government Admits It Does Not Know True Identities of 90 Per Cent of Asylum Seekers”, by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, October 5, 2017:

Swiss national councillor Simonetta Sommaruga has revealed that the problem of asylum seekers arriving into the country with no papers is so extensive the government does not know the true identities of nine out of 10 migrants.

According to Sommaruga, between January 1, 2006, and December 31, 2016, Switzerland saw a total of 151,300 asylum seekers register in the country under false identities. The figures come after Swiss People’s Party politician Barbara Steinemann made the government concede that as many as 96 per cent of underage asylum seekers had no form of identification, Basler Zeitung reports.

Sommaruga said that some of the blame falls under the fact that names in Arabic can be spelt differently making it look like there were multiple people whilst there was just one individual. Whilst she downplayed the idea of asylum seekers purposely using fake identities, there is nothing in Swiss law to prosecute or bring criminal charges against asylum seekers using fake names.

When Steinman asked how many asylum seekers with fake identities had achieved asylum, Sommaruga said that only asylum seekers with confirmed identities received full asylum – though 60,573 were given temporary permits.

In 2015, Switzerland saw 77 per cent of migrants arrive without papers and in 2016 the figure jumped to 81 per cent. When asked how many of the cases had been resolved and the migrants identified, Sommaruga said in 2015 only 4,091 were identified out of 39,523 and in 2016 only 2,706 migrants out of 27,207.

Migrants, especially underage migrants, entering Europe without papers has become the norm in many countries. In Germany, an estimated 80 per cent of migrants have come into the country without identification, many claiming to be underage.

Undercover journalist Abdullah Khan spent several months at migrant reception centres and said: “Many pose as minors travelling alone, because word has spread that they will qualify for more benefits. … To lie about their age, many people use false passports and other identity documents.”……

    WILD! How’s that for ‘VETTING’? A 90% failure rating. If this is the case, new laws need to made to exclude unvetted persons. Too much risk.

    Why should they be believed? So many ‘fake refugees’ have been seen to be lying on their applications. Taqiyya is not a sin in Islam, if they defeat the dirty kufaar.

      Hi Robert.
      Just a small but significant error…
      because these people arrive without papers (which they throw away), by international law they are illegals.
      Also they are NOT ‘refugees’… this status is reserved for genuine refugees – which almost al these Muslims
      are not! They are ‘economic migrants’ – and these, too, are called illegals by the same laws. In other words, these illegal economic migrants should be shipped out immediately if they have no papers. Almost none of them come from ‘war torn’ areas, and even this description is covered by international law… a migrant MUST prove beyond doubt that he or she is personally under immediate and direct threat. Just living in a country with violence does not count. It is about time people stopped calling these invaders ‘refugees’! I have several detailed articles on these issues. Apart from this… well done, Ribert!

    Yet more bad news from the crumbling cradle of modern civilzation.
    We are creating habitats for inhumanity; the colonizing savages will enjoy all the fruits of our labor here in the western world, no doubt, when they assume control.
    And all along we’ve thought the Swiss had their s**t together…
    Witnessing Europe’s demise before our eyes here, folks.
    What a grandiose macabre and sick f***ing joke!

      Kafka, Beckett and Orwell together wouldn’t be able to come up with anything more sinister, yes – macabre, inane, improbable and backward at the same time … yet, there is always that proverbial straw breaking camel’s back. I can see the straw down the road.

    And that goes for the rest of the civilized world, I suppose.
    These mongrels are everywhere suddenly, and they’re populating to beat hell.
    The civilized world needs to abandon some of its liberal principals and stop the hijrah, and it better do so soon, or else it’s all over, folks; Good night, civilization.
    The most bizarre thing that’s happened in modern human history.

    How does someone gain asylum, when you don’t know who the bloody hell they are?

    How can someone ‘need’ asylum when they can’t show that they ‘need’ asylum?

    Switzerland, like the rest of these Western European state’s, are suicidal idiots.

    I hope you enjoy weekly terror attacks, slums and enclaves, gang rapes, sexual assaults and mob violence in the streets, Switzerland.

    Time for the Swiss people to start seriously cranking up the taxes they pay to their government. They’ll need to pay for the welfare bill. Either that, or they need to realize and agree with the notion that welfare is no longer for the Swiss, nor is healthcare, government housing or public education. Those things are to be reserved solely for the Muslims if they don’t want to increase the taxes they pay each year.

      Switzerland, like the rest of these Western European states, [is a nation of] suicidal idiots.

      How many more errors need to occur, throughout MULTIPLE government agencies, throughout ALL Western European countries, before we admit the obvious:

      OPERATION MMMM – MASS MUSLIM MALE MIGRATION IS INTENTIONAL AND MALICIOUS – a meticulously planned operation to destroy Western Europe and create better conditions for power-obsessed politicians and billionaires.

      Meanwhile, regular people cower in fear and mutual suspicion until “they” come for them.

      Couldn’t happen “here”? It did happen in lots of countries, and will happen again while our thrill-loving media elites and polititions applaud from the sidelines.

        I’m not a person who generally follows the path down to conspiracy theories. I consider myself to be too pragmatic and sensible for that – although that could be pure arrogance talking and perhaps I simply don’t have the imagination to think outside of the box enough, hence why I struggle with CT as much as I do.

        All that being said; I cannot deny that there just HAS to be something far larger and far more sinister going on, behind the scenes here. It simply does not make any rational, logical sense for all these Politicians to blindly jump on the bandwagon of supporting migration despite all the clear evidence to the contrary.

        There is so much more, than meets the eye with all of this. There is a grand master plan behind all of this. There has to be. Nothing adds up otherwise. None of it makes the remotest of sense, otherwise.

        I’m not fully convinced on the Kalergi plan idea. i’m not convinced on the George Soros idea, either. I frankly, have no idea what that larger overriding plan is. All I know is that my gut instinct is screaming that there IS a bigger plan behind all of this, driving these Politicians and that its not going to be a good outcome for us Westerners. We’re going to suffer the consequences and pay the price here.

        We are being betrayed and most of us (myself included) don’t even know why. One thing is for sure. I do not trust the mainstream media one iota. i do not trust anyone who is a Politician, one iota. Even those ones who talk about populism and offer policies I agree with. I do not trust any public servant or public official – as they are led by those Politicians.

        If enough people start feeling the same way as I feel – and there’s a high chance today, of this – then God help us all. We’re steadily moving towards civil war with violent, authoritarian crackdowns on our rights and freedoms.

          Sarah – thank you for your thoughtful comments. Please do not mistake the following as personal criticism – rather, they are intended to prompt a deeper rethinking by JW readers.

          I’m not a person who generally follows the path down to conspiracy theories. I consider myself to be too pragmatic and sensible for that – although that could be pure arrogance talking and perhaps I simply don’t have the imagination to think outside of the box enough, hence why I struggle with CT as much as I do.

          We need to get out of the habit of thinking that thinking and talking about “conspiracies” is bad and disreputable in and of itself.

          Conspiracies are the most natural thing in the world. Wherever people cooperate in secret to get an unfair advantage over others, they are conspiring. Everyone has experienced situations like this at work – people who were seemingly at opposed to each other turned out to have worked together all along.

          Politicians at every level conspire all the time – doing secret deals with members of the opposing party, forming factions, etc. All this seems rather tawdry, but without backroom deals, politics would not work.

          All that being said; I cannot deny that there just HAS to be something far larger and far more sinister going on, behind the scenes here. It simply does not make any rational, logical sense for all these Politicians to blindly jump on the bandwagon of supporting migration despite all the clear evidence to the contrary.

          There is so much more, than meets the eye with all of this. There is a grand master plan behind all of this. There has to be. Nothing adds up otherwise. None of it makes the remotest of sense, otherwise.

          I’m not fully convinced on the Kalergi plan idea. i’m not convinced on the George Soros idea, either.

          It is indeed very difficult to ascertain the final aim of these large-scale plots. On the other hand, it is easy to see the interim balance: more jackbooted intimidation of regular citizens, more quiet cooperation between criminal organizations and “law enforcement” to protect monopolies, all-pervasive propaganda and censorship, massive theft of public resources by well-connected organizations, etc.

          Each of these phenomena involves broad interest groups – church groups, “law enforcement,” main-stream media (no longer able to survive by selling newspapers), politicians (of course), etc. By their fruits shall you know them.

          Yes, Sarah-
          It is indeed otherworldly that this grand replacement and world shift all seems to be happening in the span of a few years, that muslims seem to everywhere, suddenly, all at once, that every western government seems to be bending over backward to appease and satisfy their every demand and doing everything enable and accommodate the Hijra, or migration – not only into the EU, but the rest of the civilized world and at our expens; that the Hijra seems to be unstoppable and occurring at full-speed (not to mention the fact that my autofinish on my device just capitalized ‘hijra’ twice), and that we are the only resistance, and definitely the underdogs in this monumental struggle for the survival endurance of human civilization that our children have no idea is underway? That Western Europe is biting he dust before our eyes, and no one seems to care? Am I living in a dream? What surreal nightmare is this? I want to wake up from it.
          I agree with you, Sarah: Something massive and extraordinarily sinister and beyond-Machiavellian is at hand here, and I want to know what it is.
          Or do I?

    This situation is ridiculous. ISIS fighters and supporters are coming back or migrating to Europe and they are welcomed and granted government subsides. ISIS fighters and supporters who stay in ME are receiving money and help from UN, USA and Europe.

    Christians and Yazidis, who endured a genocide, prefer to stay in ME although they are still oppressed and persecuted, and they recibe no help from EU nor UN!

    If they’re “refugees”, why the travel back and forth to the area of origin? If it’s safe enough to return to their homeland, refuse to let them back into Europe.

    Stupid is as stupid does, Europe.

    So let me put this into perspective.
    The government collects and insists that all citizens and legal immigrants provide a miriad of information in order to be able to do anything in a country or to obtain any government service.

    Yet 90% of those illegally walking into the country can be given all manner of assistance without actually having to properly identify themselves.

    Then the government insists that those lawfully in the country abide by the laws of that country, pay taxes and contribute to support social programs.

    Yet 90% of those illegally in the country can avoid any responsibility to abide by laws and to pay taxes or to contribute in any way to the social good.

    Any citizen or legal immigrant that says anything against Islamic terror is immediately put down by the government. Yet who knows how many of the 90% of illegals are Islamic radicals or Jihadists.

    Seems a little unbalanced and biased to me.

    Not to worry. They will know their identity once an event occurs, thy are arrested, interrogated, persuaded to talk and ID’d. All the hype about the Swiss being neutral not at war for X amount of time don’t believe the propaganda The would never use extreme extraction techniques believing the citizens to be at peril

    The GLOBALISTS agenda is population replacement along with Faith Replacement & the alliance is between the Muslims & the LEFTIST MARXISTS !
    There are a couple of countries where there is hatred for their OWN PEOPLE from Politicians – GERMANY being the most obvious & SWEDEN to a lesser extent!

    THESE ARE NOT REFUGEES – THEY ARE OPPORTUNISTIC ECONOMIC ILLEGAL PEOPLE WHO HAVE SEEN THE HUGE GAP IN EUROPEAN BORDERS & FULLY UNDERSTAND THAT NO EUROPEAN POWER NOW DARES OR IS EQUIPPED TO SEND ANYONE BACK IN ANY LARGE NUMBER ! THEY UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS NO POLITICAL WILL & THE LEADERS IN THE WEST ARE WEAK & CANNOT REACT !! THIS IS WHY THEY HAVE TAKEN THE RISK & THE RISK IS NOW LOW AS EUROPE ACCEPTS MORE & MORE ! SWITZERLAND WILL ALSO BE SWAMPED IF PEOPLE DO NOT REACT & DEMAND BORDER CONTROLS !

    There is also a huge guilt trip in the UK that quite frankly is NONSENSE but has been taught for two generations now & is eagerly embraced by the followers of ISLAM & to some extent new Converts like Francois Cerra & Ridley & BOOTH !
    CERRA states that ISLAM is a BETTER GUIDE for LIFE – totally ignoring the CHILD RAPING all over the UK by MUSLIMS & Child Brides & Abuse of others !
    It is these people who are VERY dangerous as they are like TROJAN HORSES – giving a polite & supposedly WHITE FACE & more credence for the ISLAMIC SPREAD !
    CERRA stated on one panel that SOME THINGS in MODERN SOCIETY were owed to CHRISTIANITY & the MUSLIMS with her looked VISIBLY SICK !
    NO CREDIBILITY will ever be given to Christianity by the Followers of Mohammed !
    It is the Christians who now TRASH the CHRISTIAN LEGACY of their forefathers who built all of Europe & European civilization !

    I agree with Sarah and have had this gut feeling too for a long time already and wrote about it some time ago. People can be sleeping, politicians can, civilians can, but this long, while they are being warned for so long. No way !!! People and politicians are not that stupid. Something has been cooked up already a long time ago (in a so called secret back room) they are advancing and are awaiting their time, I think.
    May be the muslims are connected with the muslims and all are connected with Agenda 21, Fema Camps,
    and Chem trails, or something like that, just guessing.
    If you want to put people in jail for 15 years, just because they are critical about all the atrocities of Muslims and we are cut of from freedom of speech and all the other crazy thing: IT IS ALMOST OBVIOUS THAT SOME BIG FOUL PLAY IS WAITING FOR US, I guess. Why would you otherwise behave like this?
    There is one thing I know for sure, Leftists tried to make us believe, that they are Christians, but it is likeJohn Forbes said in his mail, the last alinea.

    They must be all in one club of RELIGION OF PEACE.! Who still believes any of them?

      To I Wonder About Leftists- I liked your comments as well as Sarah’s and so many others for this article. In my opinion, there is a human conspiracy going on, but it is all part of God’s plan of The End Times. And one of my favorite Biblical quotes that shows prophecy about Islam’s satanic intentions is spoken by Jesus Christ himself shortly before He gets arrested. In the Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 2: “… in fact a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God.”
