Turkey: People smugglers advertise fake ‘cruises’ on Facebook, offering to ship migrants to Italy for $6500

Aug 20, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The hijra into Europe continues. Even during the coronavirus lockdown, hordes of illegal Muslim migrants have arrived in Britain from France via the English Channel. Migrants have also swarmed into Italy and overwhelmed the Island of Lampedusa.

And who is to blame? Western globalist leaders who were voted in by people who were and largely still are clueless about the conquest and subversion that is going on under their noses. While Western economies continue to suffer from the effects of the coronavirus lockdowns, people smuggling is thriving, with some illegals even getting VIP treatment, all on the dhimmi taxpayer dime.

“The road to Europe” is now a free-for-all for illegal migrants. It is increasingly obvious that there is one law for Western law-abiding citizens and another for illegal Muslim migrants.

“People Smugglers Using Facebook To Advertise Fake ‘Cruises’ To Europe,” by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, August 18, 2020:

People smugglers in Turkey are allegedly advertising their services under the guise of fake “cruises” on social media platform Facebook, offering to ship migrants to Italy for €5,500.

The journeys are advertised as a three to four day trip aboard a yacht from Turkey to the Sicilian coast on a Facebook page labelled “The Road to Europe” with adults paying the full price, half price for children between four and ten and children under three given a free trip.

According to a report from Italian newspaper Il Giornale, the smugglers also offer a passage from Serbia to Austria, advertised as a €4,000 “camping trip.” Another trip by sea is offered for migrants ot the Greek island of Rhodes for a substantially cheaper €2,100.

The newspaper also claims that the smugglers offer forged passports and visas for any country migrants which to visit, costing €9,000 for European visas and €11,000 for the United Kingdom. The smugglers also offer fake drivers licences and other photo ID cards for between 500 and 800 euros.

In previous years, people smugglers have offered similar “all-inclusive” packages for migrants with enough cash to afford them.

In 2019, investigators described the “first-class” smuggling trend that cost as much as 10,000 euros per person. In 2017, a man from Cameroon living in Morocco claimed that smugglers were offering similar packages to reach Spain.

“Think about it, with several hundreds of refugees you can earn more than a million euros in one day,” the man said.

Facebook has also been used in the past by people smugglers as a way to advertise their services, many of which have been described as “travel agencies” by the smugglers….

    Perhaps the UK, and continental Europe, should also advertise … free underwater swimming – but without the scuba gear, and with no lessons!

    Are these boats returning to Africa empty? If so, there is an opportunity being missed for making money by booking Eurpoeans for “holiday cruises” to Africa. Also, the European (and African) governments are missing out on extra revenue that could be gained by requiring proper licensing for the boats and extracting fees for mandatory safety inspections. If governments are going to allow this activity to continue it needs to be properly regulated as any for profit business should be. All boats caught carrying passengers without the necessary license and safety inspection certificate should be taken out of business and the owners heavily fined or imprisoned.

    In the past, whenever I heard the term “refugee” I pictured some poor bastard who had his home destroyed in a war or natural disaster who was running for his life just to survive.
    There must be something wrong with me. the media keeps telling me about all these destitute women and babies fleeing rape and torture in fear of their very lives.

    But, all I see is an invading army of fit young men who have paid and in some cases are being paid to invade other countries with the intent of destroying them from within.
    Am I missing something here?

      I think you have correctly assessed the situation and the media have not.

      Keith O,

      You are not missing anything, you are seeing the situation correctly.

      As a reminder, Hillary Clinton does not:

    This is an invasion.

      I live in a rural area of Central Italy. I can’t say I see many migrants.

      The other day I mentioned this to a Carabiniero.

      He was shocked. He said, “You don’t know about it ! There is a whole big community of Moslems living near Sant’ A. !!”

      This is only 10 miles from where I live and I hadn’t a clue.

        Very scary, Rufolino. This is happening all over the west.

    Open borders mean the enemies of your country and people who want what you have are coming to a neighborhood near you. These migrant invaders are not coming to become part of your society and life style, they are coming to covert you to their life style and take over your country. Islam’s plan is to rule the world with the muslims being your masters.

      OLD GUY,

      Your post is 100% true.

      Why a very large percentage of the population in Western nations fails to understand the obvious is beyond comprehension.
