An update to the story that The Point discussed here.
Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni vowed to resist mass migration. The low bar at stake here is the migrant smuggling operation in which NGOs pick up mostly Muslim migrants and “rescue them” by transporting them to Italy.
The new Italian government lightly put its foot down and refused to let the male migrants leave the smuggling ships and enter Italy.
The migrant smugglers claimed that Italy had an obligation to take them because the Muslim migrants were all vulnerable Italy allowed in women, children and anyone sick and said that the ‘flag states’ or the countries those ships were registered to had to take them.
The standoff proved successful with another migrant ship picking up and going to France.
France’s government has granted a safe port to the Ocean Viking rescue vessel carrying 234 migrants.
Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin said France would welcome the ship’s passengers at the military port in the city of Toulon on Friday.
The Norwegian-flagged vessel — operated by the NGO SOS Méditerranée — has been at sea for nearly three weeks.
Italy had refused to allow the migrants to disembark on Italian territory, sparking a dispute with Paris.
Darmanin said the 230 passengers on board the Ocean Viking subsequently would be divided among France, Germany and other European countries.
Resistance is not futile.
France has responded with angry threats.
The French interior minister, Gérald Darmanin, said Rome’s refusal to answer calls for help from the ship in Italian waters was “incomprehensible” and “unacceptable”. He said it was “obvious that there will be extremely severe consequences for bilateral relations” between France and Italy.
What’s incomprehensible is allowing countries to be invaded by those trying to destroy them.
The name Ocean Viking is appropriate since the passengers are ‘viking’ to raid Europe.

Thanks Daniel!!!
Ricardo Pacetti says
I’m happy that Italy has a new administration.
Nicolas Carras says
“The French interior minister warned “there will be extremely severe consequences”.”
Since France has already been Islamized. And that it was imposed by the state. He can say whatever he wants today..
Mo de Profit says
France has a long history of waving a white flag.
Kynarion Hellenis says
We will know when the west has decided against suicide when the “extremely severe consequences” warning comes from the migrant nations and not fellow suicidal westerners virtue signaling their own devotion to destruction.
Many of those NGOs identify as Christian. The NGO immigration model is very lucrative. No need to be true to Christ’s commission. No need to beg wealthy widows for money. They disguise their motives as compassion, while they get paid millions to partner with evil.

This reminds of Farage’s Brexit movement. Italy is Europe and Italy will always be Italy.
How’s Brexit going? Actually it isn’t unless you listen to Farage. An utter puke and coward if you pay attention to his behaviour towards people supposedly on his own side. He is most stringent with them and they have been systematically eradicated for media purposes. If you’re paying attention.
Una Salus says
How’s Brexit going? Well, now we have Rishi Sunak. A worthy heir to the Boris empire and as fabulously rich as any monarch should be.
Algorithmic Analyst says
Yeah, that surprised me at first, some of the guys from India were fabulously wealthy, I didn’t notice until I was invited inside their homes.
Una Salus says
There’s always wealth to extract from a docile population that regards docility as a virtue. That’s usually how you know they aren’t free.
Una Salus says
Usually how you know they hate idea of freedom, really. They label it inequality. What that means is they didn’t get their market value.
Una Salus says
And this brings us to the American middle class which is the greatest middle class in existence. A class which besides not noticing much hasn’t escaped notice.
Algorithmic Analyst says
Yeah, that was what shocked me. I always thought the American middle class was doing well. But those rich Indian guys made us look like peasants. Changed my whole worldview.
Una Salus says
We are all very rich here.

Sky News Oz has apparently abandoned Trump. This is not good news for Trumpoids. I don’t care about Trump but this is not good news for us either probably.
He can’t be controlled they say.
Una Salus says
Like Bill Maher with Obama I was always waiting for Trump to get out of control but it never happened. His ego was always in control.
Una Salus says
Sky News Oz used to think Trump was the most adorable thing in the world. Now not so much.

Invaders, not migrant. Know the difference.
Migrants adopt, serve and assimilate to the hosting nations culture and laws. Invaders are there to destroy the hosting nation’s culture and laws and impose their own tyranny.
Spurwing Plover says
France paying the price for Open Borders and unregulated unlimited immigration
Algorithmic Analyst says
Yeah, I was reading some French general who still thinks USA is their main enemy (old time French thinking). But the enemy of France is already inside the gates.
Michael Balzoa says
PM Maloni promised just this sort of behavior. Why is anyone surprised or upset? Besides, France NEEDS more Muslims.
Kasandra says
Italy – no more fois gras for you!
