Italy’s Interior Minister begins deporting migrants: “Deporting them isn’t racist, it’s merely common sense”

Sep 15, 2018 2:51 pm By Robert Spencer

Salvini is right, but he will be excoriated as a “racist” anyway. The political and media elites expect, and indeed demand, that the countries of the West commit national suicide. Anything short of that is “racist” and “neo-Nazi.”

“Italy’s Interior Minister keeps election promise as Italy starts deporting migrants,” by Ben Perchiron, Voice of Europe, September 12, 2018:

Italy’s Interior Minister, Matteo Salvini, who vowed to deport hundreds of thousands of illegal African migrants from Italy back to their respective countries, seems to have started in earnest now….

After reaching several agreements with their country of origin, Italian authorities loaded the immigrants onto a boat to Libya, where they’d then be put on a plane to Nigeria. Later, Mr Matteo Salvini commented: “there’ll be 165 fewer potential rapists of our women, and this is only the beginning.”

With this act Italy wants to send a strong message to migrants: “We want African migrants to know that if they come here, we will send them back. Italy is no longer open to all types of immigration.”

This coincides with Mr Salvini’s message to the UN – that Italy cannot be accused of “racism” as during decades Italy took in thousands of migrants. “Deporting them isn’t racist, it’s merely common sense.” Mr Salvini is now considering cutting funds to the United Nations.

    It was the UN – Ban Ki Moon and Peter Sutherland – and the EU – Communist Federica Mogherini – who insisted on “search and rescue”. Translation: complicity with people-traffickers.
    Salvini is right to threaten the funding of UN.

      Yep. Salvini knows exactly who is responsible.

      Sep 15, 2018 at 7:21 pm

      Was Mogherini in cahoots with the traffickers? Some turned out to be Mafia.

      European Marxists and neo-Marxists should realize that Muslims will do them out of a job.

      Muslims will vote for ISLAMIC PARTIES, not for communism.

      The UN should be evaporated and as far as Italy’s Interior Minister is concerned…The Pope will Excommunicate him or maybe put a HIT out on him….but more power to him he’s got guts no other country seems to be deporting…they are importing.

      Salvini is correct, deporting Muslims is not racist because Islam is not a race……as per former Muslim Farrah Prudence

        I wish we had a Matteo Salvini here in Canada and many other parts of the world. He uses a lot of common sense. The elites use racism to obtain what they want. This is invasion not immigration!!

    ‘…165 fewer potential rapists…’ is a good start. Thankyou, Matteo Salvini.

      Sep 15, 2018 at 4:51 pm

      165 potential rapists is only a drop in the bucket …. But if that saved only one rape and it was your daughter! The good Salvini has done is beyond measure! The worms in the west are beginning to turn, and Salvini is becoming a dragon to the Islamic hoards.

        Not just that, but when word starts getting around in various communities in Africa that Italy is starting the deportations, it’ll dissuade some (hopefully a a lot as this process continues) from even trying to make the trip to begin with.

          Sep 16, 2018 at 3:44 am

          Please ! This won’t “dissuade” anyone !! 165 people out of the millions now in Europe !

          They will continue to risk EVERYTHING to get into Europe.

    Even the Dalai Lama is onboard with Italy. He said Europe should be for Europeans and immigrants should go back to rebuild their own country. A religious leader with more common sense than the Pope or most other so called leaders today.

    • Rufolino says

        Listen sunshine,you’r right its not enough,its a mere drop in the ocean of scroungers,BUT remember,every journey starts with the first step,Salvini cannot wave a wand and make them disappear,there are the logistics of arranging a mass movement of people.As long as he keeps the program moving they will eventually gather pace and refine the process,it is up to the people of Italy,(and Europe) to make sure that there is no back tracking or undue pressure being applied by,amongst others,the Italian bitch Mogherini,the arch federalist,give him time.

    The left in of Italy are than as the left in America they,must be of such low intelligence that that don’t understand or that they simply don’t want to ,as in refuse to, understand the obvious reality of the truth . Which is Islam is not a race and the believers in Islam are people of many races ,including many Whites .
    Islam is really a religious/political /sharia law based system of mind control which totally controls the thoughts ,feeling, ideas and behavior of millions of people around the world. Sadly, some of those Muslims are infected and controlled in their heart and mind in their thoughts ,feelings, ideas and behavior in the Islamic ways of jihad violence. To the terrible extent thew they have literally become dangerous to self and others.in their violent jihadist mindset. So in Italy as in America the jihadist /Muslims pose a threat and danger to the safety and lives of the public. Therefore the government officials who want to do something about that possible threat to the safety and lives of the citizens of the nation are not racist but conscientious in doing the jobs in the protection of the citizens of their country.

    Am I dreaming, or could this actually be happening?

    Could Italy finally be approaching the Muslim migrant crisis head-on and, in the end, actually regain their culture?

    If Salvini is able to pull this off on a large scale, my next trip will be to Italy. I haven’t been there since the 1990s.

      Let Italy and Austria join the Visegrad, and continue the expansion against the EU. Let muslims believe in their cult-in a place where they are no threat. As Italy protects it’s waters and ports, then go after the no-go zones and send their barbaric practices back to the 7th century.
      Greece must follow the same trend if they are ever going to be free again. While under the EU; Greece will replace Italy as a jumping ground to Europe. The Balkans are being overwhelmed by muslim migration and not a sound is being heard.

      You bet “they need to improve on this number” !!! 165 ? Are you kidding me ? There are millions in Europe !

      Going by the ecstatic comments here you’d think 165,000 were being deported, not 165.

      Salvini promised half a million illegals would go. Don’t hold your breath ! I tend to believe political promises after they are fulfilled.

      At this rate, it will take decades -and will then have become demographically impossible. Islam knows this. Get real, people !

      Common sense AND Salvini’s LEGAL RIGHT to deport these ILLEGAL alien invaders. They have no right to be in Italy in the first place. They do NOT fit the proper definition of “refugee” as they passed through several safe countries to get to Europe. They are nothing more than crass opportunists, country and benefits shoppers. Italy owes them NOTHING.

      And these ungrateful parasites actually set fires in the camps on Lampedusa and mainland Italy because they didn’t like the “conditions” and complained about getting cheese, eggs and bread to eat. They demanded “their kind” of food. Unfreakingbelievable. They can’t be deported fast enough, the losers.

      “Bravo! At last, someone is doing something concrete” How about a bit of concrete added to the boots of European and Western “leaders” who can’t see the woods for the Islamic trees that are tearing their nations to pieces. They should collectively be thrown into a deep lake in the woods complete with the concrete boots. Idiots.

    It’s so satisfying to see a great nation like Italy save itself from the abyss.
    For Cultural Marxists, we’ll always be awful “racists” who are worthy of
    annihilation anyway, so why not accept that silly and dishonest label with pride
    and do what you have to do to protect yourself and those of your kind and
    those who share your values? You have absolutely nothing to lose.
    SJWs will be taken out of the gene pool soon enough with their absurd and
    suicidal virtue signalling anyway and so their screeching will diminish with time
    too. Another bonus in the long term!

          Paul is right. Cultural Marxist postmodern ‘teachers’ are mostly perverse. They do not really want the students to become Muslims, but they want the students to HATE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN VALUES such as the Golden Rule… which students of today probably do not even know!

          They present Islam as benign and benevolent, when the opposite is the case. THE HISTORY OF JIHAD will convince many LEFTARDS of their DELUDED IDEOLOGY … if only they will read the book.

    If the European countries are unable to deport the parasites to their country of origin, they could export them to Merkels Germany or sweden. There all good people will be ready with signs saying “Refugees are Welcome”.
    Whether the ‘refugees’ started out from Italy or from Nigeria is presumably unimportant – Germany and Sweden just love migrant of any sort – so let those 2 countries receive them!

    I don’t know where The Voice of Europe got this news, but it is false! As an Italian I read several newspapers online and not one has mentioned these. Plus we would need a treaty with Nigeria to send them back (like the one we have with Tunisia, where we send back 80 illegal immigrants a week) and I am not sure we have one. The threat to cut funding to the UN is true, but that was related to another matter.

    Sorry, everyone.

    It’s very good news that Salvini and Italy are actually starting to send some of these invaders back. I like the way Salvini cuts through the crap and just says it is “common sense” to get rid of the barbaric invaders, who offer nothing positive to Italy, but are a complete negative for the country. It is a common sense move. It surprises me to read that the African countries the invaders came from have reached an arrangement to take them back. I would have thought the African countries wouldn’t want them back. I hope Italy hasn’t had to pay a bribe, give out some money or aid, to get the African countries to take the parasites back, but I suspect that’s the only way to get things done. Anyway, it’s a good move and a start towards saving one European country from the invasion. Maybe other European countries will imitate Italy’s sensible move.
