EUROPE: ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION GONE WILD, HIGHEST NUMBER OF ASYLUM APPLICANTS EVER

Friday, 21 February 2014: Illegal immigration out of control and growing. Illegal immigration to Europe has risen sharply, surprise surprise! This conclusion that can be understood from the latest EU statistics of the FRONTEX – European Border Agency, which refer to the third quarter of 2013. According to these statistics, more illegal border crossings have been registered than at the height of the Arab revolutions in 2011, and there have till now never been such a high number of asylum applications made in Europe, where better housing, health care, welfare payments and schooling can be found, especially in Western Europe. The majority of refugees arrived in Italy, most of them coming from North African, the Middle East and of course Syria, because of the civil war taking place there. According to the agency, there are no signs that this picture will change anytime soon on the short/medium-term. And we believe it never will whilst hard-line Islamic terrorists engulf the region in continuous wars. During the third quarter of 2013, some 42,618 illegal border crossings were registered in the EU, which was almost double as compared to the same quarter of the previous year, and four times more than at the beginning of 2013. The European Border Agency talks about a “dramatic increase”, which has taken place almost exclusively at the Italian coasts, mainly in Lampedusa and Sicily. 8,000 and 12,000 immigrants were registered there respectively. The bulk of them had arrived from Libya in boats, the use of “mother ships” having turned more and more common. Small boats are used to transport the immigrants to the shores from these ships.

WEST: JANUARY 2014 SEES SURGE OF BOAT IMMIGRANTS ON ITALIAN SHORES

In January 2014, 2,156 illegal immigrants landed on the Italian coast: 10 times more than the first 30 days of 2013 when they were 217. Totally, last year, 42,925 migrants reached Italian shores: 325% more than in 2012. 3,818 of them were unaccompanied foreign minors. Sicily is the Italian Region which is affected by the phenomenon the most. With 37,886 migrants, 88% of the annual total. 14,753 of which only in Lampedusa. The main country of departure was Libya (27,314 migrants), followed by Egypt (9,215) and Turkey (2,077). While, as far as the country of origin is concerned (identified on the basis of the statements released at the time of landing), in the first place we find Syria: 11,307 migrants, a number increased over the previous year when the Syrians were just 582. Followed by Eritrea (9,834, more than 4 times than in 2012), Somalia (9,263) and Egypt (2,618). These are the figures released by the deputy minister Bubbico during the hearing to the Committee on Migration of the Council of Europe. http://www.west-info.eu/january-sees-surge-of-boat-immigrants-on-italian-shores/

SUNDAY STAR TIMES 27 APRIL 2014: NZ TO CHOOSE BETWEEN US AND CHINA

A former Australian prime minister has warned Australia risks being pulled into a war with China because it has surrendered its strategic independence to Washington, but a security expert says New Zealand's position is even more precarious... "The trouble for New Zealand is that our position is untenable over the long term. At some point New Zealand will be forced to choose between its trading relationship with [China] and its security relationship with the US."

WEEKEND HERALD 26 APRIL 2014: FAR-RIGHT IN AUSTRALIA TARGETS MUSLIMS

Australia's violent far right has begun to stir again, targeting Muslims in a campaign that has erupted into conflict with Islamic radicals involving at least one shooting, death threats and intimidation. The worst of the anti-Muslim drive is led by the Australian Defence League, joining a small but widening base embracing the Australia First Party, a registered political party that contests local, state and federal elections, white supremacists, neo-Nazis and skinheads. A newly formed Australian branch of Greece's fascist Golden Dawn has been supported by Australia First. Golden Dawn has a history of violence, uses Nazi symbolism and regards Adolf Hitler as a "great personality". Australia's far right has drawn heavily on foreign mentors. The ADL grew from Britain's violently anti-Muslim English Defence League, with others linked to an international network of fascists and white supremacists. The domestic spy agency, the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation, said in its most recent report to federal Parliament that local groups were using protests to provoke violence, leading to "heightened tensions between anti-Islam groups and Islamist extremists". Asio and police are now investigating rising tensions between the ADL and Muslim groups after an internet and social media hate campaign, death threats and intimidation including public abuse of Muslims.

SYDNEY 22 APRIL 2014: TENSIONS BETWEEN AUSTRALIAN DEFENCE LEAGUE AND MUSLIM COMMUNITY

Police and ASIO are scrambling to defuse serious tensions between Australian far-right groups and Islamist extremists, which have reached unprecedented heights in recent weeks with death threats and an apparent attempted murder. In the most serious case, up to eight gunshots were fired into the Sydney home of a former leader of an anti-Islamic hate group earlier this month. The former western Sydney president of the Australian Defence League (ADL), Nathan Abela, claims he commando-rolled through his living room to avoid being hit by up to eight bullets fired into his Greystanes home late on April 3.

NEW ZEALAND's ALLIES: WEST OR EAST?

CHINA is not a Democracy, is a Communist country. New Zealand made a mistake opening too much to China, because of the previous Labour government. Hey, National Party, it's not just a matter of Money. It's a matter of POLITICS and CULTURE. We must be careful choosing our Allies. We must Stand up for our Western European Heritage. We are not Asian, we are not Communist. New Zealand is a unique country. We managed to find a correct balance between the European Heritage and the Maori one. I don't want to become a Chinese citizen; I don't want to speak Chinese. I like ENGLISH. New Zealand's position in the South Pacific Ocean is strategic because it's a bridge to Antarctica, a continent very rich in raw materials. We must try to have better relationships with USA/Australia even if it's not easy. New Zealand cannot become just another Asian country...

AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT - DEPT OF IMMIGRATION AND BORDER PROTECTION: NO WAY. THEY WILL NOT MAKE AUSTRALIA HOME

The rules have changed (last reviewed Wednesday 2 April 2014). Check the facts. The Australian Government is implementing the toughest border protection measures ever to combat maritime people smuggling and protect Australia's borders. Anyone seeking to illegally enter Australia by boat will never make Australia home. It is the policy and practice of the Australian Government to intercept any vessel that is seeking to illegally enter Australia and safely remove it beyond our waters. People who travelled to Australia by boat without a visa will not end up in Australia; they have been sent for processing in Nauru or Papua New Guinea. They won't be able to work, and could be waiting a long time for their claim to be processed. Australia has the toughest border protection measures ever. The Australian Government has announced that no temporary or permanent protection visas will be granted to anyone who arrives in Australia by boat without a visa until further notice. The rules apply to everyone; families, children, unaccompanied children, educated and skilled. There are no exceptions. READ more at: https://www.immi.gov.au/Live/Pages/refugees/no-way.aspx

W. Nagel's VISION OF AN EAST FRONT FOLLOWER

Nazi Art the U.S. Military Gathered After Defeating Hitler - Caption:FORT BELVOIR, VA - FEBRUARY 7, 2014: Willfried Nagel's 'Vision of an East Front Follower' is a 1943 oil painting on canvas that is being housed at the Army Art Collection US Army Center of Military History Museum Support Center on Friday, February 7, 2014, in Fort Belvoir, VA. The painting, property of Luftgaukommando VI Kunst der Front, was taken by US soldiers during WWII from Schloss Ringberg (near Tegernsee). As a new movie, 'The Monuments Men,' celebrates the GIs who recovered precious European art that was stolen by the Nazis, American soldiers were also gathering another kind of art: that produced by the Nazis. In the wake of the war, allied forces embarked on the 'de-nazification' of Germany. That meant collecting reams of Nazi propaganda art. Much of that material, including watercolors by Adolf Hitler, now resides at the Army's Museum Support Center at Fort Belvoir. http://www.gettyimages.co.nz/detail/news-photo/willfried-nagels-vision-of-an-east-front-follower-is-a-1943-news-photo/474576963 MY COMMENT: "An impressive and visionary painting that should be known. Not easy to find a picture of it at the moment. Check out the link. A.k.a. VISION OF A SOLDIER ON THE EASTERN FRONT"

BOOK REVIEW : ART AND THE SECOND WORLD WAR

Monica Bohm-Duchen's ART AND THE SECOND WORLD WAR (Lund Humphries/Ashgate Publishing, UK 2013) is the first book in English to provide a comprehensive and detailed international overview of the complex and often disturbing relationship between war and the fine arts during this crucial period of modern history (1939 - 1945). A wide range of fascinating and thought-provoking paintings from different countries (Spain, UK, USA, Russia, Germany, Italy, Australia, NZ and more). In this book, Nazi War Art is under a re-assessment: it means UK-USA censorship against it is getting slowly over 60 years after the Second World War.
