Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

UN urges governments to release illegal migrants and give them “access to healthcare, housing, and other services”

May 2, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The UN Migration Pact has been out of the news cycle for over a year, leaving the mistaken impression that it has been abandoned in the midst of more pressing issues, such as the Central American caravans, the ludicrous Trump impeachment trial, and now the coronavirus. But the globalist-driven Pact is far from defunct. It was merely put on the back burner. With the coronavirus, it is now back at the worse time possible, under new guidelines, which include “steps that several governments have already taken to swiftly release migrants from detention and to provide access to healthcare, housing and other services regardless of migration status.” Not only does this threaten the security of the nations who implement these recommendations, but it also raises the question of who will pay for these plans, given the state of affairs in a depressed economy?

This is happening while the UN is “already under scrutiny over the supine posture of its health agency, the World Health Organization, towards the Chinese Communist Party,” and now “the UN may now be in for another wave of criticism as it uses the pandemic to push for open borders.” Its push should be vehemently opposed, especially now.

Fortunately, the U.S., Hungary, Austria, Australia, Poland, Israel, , Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, Bulgaria, Latvia, Italy, Switzerland and Chile have all  refused to sign it or otherwise expressed great reservations and refused to commit,  while Brazil withdrew.

Many jihadist groups have also seized the current COVID-19 pandemic as an opportunity, creating a “deadly combination” of coronavirus and jihad terror. Al-Qaeda, for example, views the virus as “Allah’s retribution, arguing that the West is immoral and in decline.”

To briefly recap the problems with the Pact:

The UN Migration Pact represents a catastrophic dismantling of key components of democratic institutions by the United Nations, a body that has increasingly allied with the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). The Pact — officially named the “Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration” — indicates that it “offers a 360-degree vision of international migration and recognizes that a comprehensive approach is needed to optimize the overall benefits of migration, while addressing risks and challenges for individuals and communities in countries of origin, transit and destination.” It also states that “No country can address the challenges and opportunities of this global phenomenon on its own.” 

In effect, it imposes upon the sovereignty of free nations, and it is administered by the OIC-dominated United Nations and by globalists who have relentlessly implemented policy to weaken Western freedoms.

“UN Urges Govts to Release Illegal Migrants, ‘Provide Access to Healthcare, Housing,’” by Jack Montgomery, Breitbart, April 30, 2020:

The United Nations (UN) is urging countries around the world to release illegal migrants from detention in response to the Chinese coronavirus pandemic, and highlighted steps towards giving them “access to healthcare, housing, and other services”.

Already under scrutiny over the supine posture of its health agency, the World Health Organization (WHO), towards the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the UN may now be in for another wave of criticism as it uses the pandemic to push for open borders — highlighting states “responsibilities” under the contentious Global Compact for Migration as it does so.

“Yesterday, the United Nations Network on Migration released urgently needed practical recommendations with guidance for States and stakeholders on preventing and responding to COVID-19 in the context of immigration detention,” announced the UN Migration Agency, or International Organization for Migration (IOM), in an official press release.

“[T]he brief highlights steps that several governments have already taken to swiftly release migrants from detention and to provide access to healthcare, housing and other services regardless of migration status,” it continued approvingly.

“The Network’s Working Group on Alternatives to Detention – co-led by UNICEF, UNHCR and the International Detention Coalition – has developed this guidance in partnership amongst UN agencies and civil society… The Network calls on States to introduce a moratorium on the use of immigration detention; to scale up and implement non-custodial community-based alternatives [and] to release all migrants in detention into alternatives,” it added, suggesting that illegal aliens should only be detained as a “last resort”…..

    For us, the yet free people of Europe, that spells: pay, pay,pay and then pay some more for individuals that refuse to take care of themselves.
    Where is the self-responsibility of the nations?
    Where is their responsibility to create their own wealth, if they want some.
    Their responsibility to develop themselves.
    This is the mentality of parasitism from start to end…
    and it is racist a bit.
    The European wealth is neither stolen nor incidental.
    It has been generated by work and diligence and intelligence.
    Copy if you can.
    If you can’t, we support you. Against pay.
    That would be the correct way.

    WHO PAYS FOR THE ILLEGAL BORDER-CRASHERS ???

    Don’t the people of a country have a right to determine their own immigration rules?

    The UN speaks over the heads of the voters. This is DICTATORIAL.

    • James Lincoln says

      Yes, mortimer.

      1. A country has a right to determine their own immigration rules.

      2. The UN, and I would add the European Commission, are both dictatorial.

      The wise V4 Visegrad Group countries understands this, few others do.

      Pi$$ on the UN. Trudeau almost broke a leg in his rush to sign on and suck up to the UN, intending to flood Canada with illegal Liberal voters.

    The UN, dominated by the 56 Islamic state “Organisation of Islamic Co-operation”, is no longer pursuing its remit of promoting peace. It has become captive to a sinister objective to dissolve national sovereignties in favour of a One World Order. William F. Jasper exposes this in his article, “Insider: EU-U.S. Must Take More Refugees, Get Rid of Sovereignty”:

    “With the UN we are contending against not only the natural tendency toward the accumulation of power in government, but also a longstanding, organized conspiracy of powerful forces to build, piece by piece, step by step, an omnipotent global government.”

    Rather than putting all of the onus on the nations where the migrant seek to go, why not put the onus on the nations they are coming from, where conditions are so terrible that the migrants feel compelled to leave them to seek a better life elsewhere. If those countries could be made better, perhaps the migrants wouldn’t feel compelled to leave.

    I don’t recall ever reading about any effort by the UN to improve the lot of those living in the migrants’ countries of origin.

      The Immigration Compact contains a clause about migrant source countries being required to address the drivers of their citizens wanting to leave. Expect if there is any review of the operation of such compact that a. the receiving countries will be castigated for not doing more and b. the source countries will be exonerated because thaey are victims of a white western racist legacy.
      John Howard the former Aust PM had it right with his expression ‘take the sugar off the table’. Don’t let migrants land on Aust soil.

    I know it has been asked many times here at JW but why don’t these subhuman creatures enter their next door neighbors such as the rich gulf states? Why has China not opened its doors to these dead beats? The only doors the Chinese open are the ones to the gulags to which even the Islamic hell holes have not complained, much less the UN. Even the South African people have had no problem killing illegal migrants from Mugabe’s Zimbabwe as they have demonstrated in the past while the UN sat by and said nothing. It is time for the West to completely renounce the UN and remove our money and watch the internecine from those left.

    I’d still like to see the UN building emptied and repurposed as a first class home for our veterans,
    or housing for our homeless citizens.

    UN urges governments to release illegal migrants and give them “access to healthcare, housing, and other services”
    …………………..

    In other words, take these invaders in and give them all your money, goods, and services. In return, they will rape and murder your people and try to impose barbaric Shari’ah law on you.

    Illegal immigrants should be provided access to deportation.

      I agree. The most humane way to help them is, send them back home!

    The UN should be disbanded ,They have out lived their original purpose. The building should be used for homeless US Veteran’s

    The UN is not a supranational organisation. These UN opinions are simply opinions and cannot have any binding effect on anyone. UN should be warned that this kind of activities and initiatives is unwanted and unsolicited and is a clear sign that the UN is over funded. So let us start with a 10 percent reduction of its budget.

    BTW is this part of the UN just as corrupt as the WHO which is in the pockets of vaccine guru and genocide high priest Bill Gates and Priestess Melinda Gates?

    NO WAY!! Even the Muslims here legally can go back! They won’t integrate & tbhey push their stupid, insane, degenerate, perverted “Religion” down our throats until we join it or. get enslaved or murdered by it! FFS, wake up!!

    ”provide access to healthcare, housing and other services regardless of migration status”
    Ever heard of economics, UN (China, Russia, Trudeau, and their acolytes)? If there is an insufficient number of health professionals in the West to provide the services, and there is, how are migrants supposed to be getting service without moving the indigent sponsor to the back of the line? Add to that all other services provided in a Western society and soon UN employees must be sent to the back of the line too. Oh, did I see something move?

    The global Migration pact is not binding in Canada –just more of Justine’s horse pucky.

    The UN is a worthless organization controlled by Islamic and communist countries, not people who promote freedom and well being for mankind. The United States of America needs to get out and quit funding this unless organization. What a shame that the UN has lost its ability to do good and protect humanity without worrying about hurting some dictators feelings or where their individual Money is coming from.
    Rotary had a hand in starting the UN and should request that its members adhere to the four way test.

    Is it the truth
    Is it fair to all concerned
    Will it build goodwill & better friendships
    Will it be beneficial to all concerned
