With the tiny country of Lebanon (4 million native Lebanese) reeling from a long-standing Palestinian refugee influx (est. 1 million Palestinian refugees) - thanks to the creation of the Anglo-Saxon Jewish colony that ethnically cleansed Palestine - and a more recent influx of 2.5 million Syrian refugees expelled by their own butcher president Bashar Assad - Lebanon has collapsed as a state. Nothing works in this ultra-religious barbarian federation of religious communities: State institutions don't operate, banks don't work, the educational institutions cater to the Syrian refugees (who can pay thanks to the dollars they get from international aid organizations) but not to their own Lebanese population who can no longer afford their skyrocketing tuition costs, and a Syrian-Iranian terror organization has taken over the country and has engaged it in a bloody war with the Zionist colony south of the border.
But the European criminals, who created the abject colony of Israel in Palestine and are the principal cause for the Palestinian refugees’ long suffering, continue to undermine Lebanon to force it to accept the permanent settlement of refugees – both Palestinian and Syrian – as a way of helping both the hyper-religious terror state of Israel and the brutal Syrian Stalinist regime out of their international obligations to accept the refugees back. The Europeans also don’t want those same refugees it is forcing Lebanon to keep. They pretend to be Lebanon's friends, but deliberately keep Lebanon in the chaos created by the Syrian-Iranian occupation in the belief that anarchy is the best incubator for the permanent settlement of the refugees.
But with Lebanon’s native resilience, these objectives are proving increasingly difficult. The Syrian refugees are happy with the dollars they get from the Europeans. But life in a squalid refugee camp inside a collapsed country where the native Lebanese hate their former Syrian occupiers is becoming similar to their life back in Syria, minus the savage shelling. But that won't be long coming.
The Lebanese are sick and tired of the criminality and lawlessness caused by a refugee population nearing 50% of the total population. The drums of fatigue and hatred are beating, to be followed soon by an all-out war against the refugees who sense that terrible things will happen to them if they stay in Lebanon. While the Europeans hypocritically accuse the Lebanese of “racism” for not wanting the refugees permanently on their soil, they themselves do not want those same refugees, yet the Lebanese are polite enough not to call the Europeans racist.
Meanwhile, the Syrian refugees who fled Syria are now beginning to flee Lebanon. The Lebanese are very happy with this development and are encouraging the Syrians to leave by any means possible. I suggest that the Lebanese should charter free flights to Cyprus specifically for the Syrian refugees: It would be orderly and safer than dingy dangerous boats. The hypocrite Europeans pretend not to notice the Syrian refugees’ move en masse to Europe with their closest destination being the European island of Cyprus (180 miles across the Mediterranean).
To their credit, the Cypriots have been warning the EU about the untenable situation in Lebanon and its repercussions on Cyprus. For decades, the West (EU and US) have protected Assad and his 55-year-old brutal regime because of his collusion with the Zionist thugs. Since 1974, Assad has not bothered Israel with any resistance across the occupied and annexed Golan Heights, while stoking resistance and liberation fires in neighboring Lebanon with his Hezbollah terror entity. The Israelis have annexed 2/3 of the Syrian Golan Heights (some 1,200 Km2 or 460 Square Miles) and this does not merit a resistance movement from Syrian soil. But for Israel to occupy some 50 Km2 (20 Square miles) of disputed land along the Blue Line is unacceptable for the Syrians and their Lebanese donkeys and warrants 60+ years of wars and the collapse of the country.
Even though many other Arab dictators have fallen, Assad remains in power after having killed upwards of half a million of his own people and sent 7 million out into refugee exile. He is still in power and the Americans and the European love him. He has done their bidding of not challenging Israel's annexation of his own Golan Heights, and last year the Arab League accepted him back in its ranks.
So instead of the West pressuring Syria to take back its refugees, it comes up with asinine policies that help Assad and hurt his victims. But Cyprus has had it. The Associated Press says that the president of Cyprus has asked the chief of the EU Commission to force Lebanon to stop sending Syrian migrants from its shores. But the overwhelmed Lebanese have no one to turn to for help with the situation, and regardless of whether or not they are encouraging the Syrian refugees to go to Cyprus, the refugees are doing just that and the Lebanese can’t, and won’t, stop them. How can a country without a president head of state, with only a caretaker government, and an army that is as useless as the Haitian police against the gangs, be "forced" to hold back the would-be fleeing Syrian migrants to Cyprus and Europe?
I welcome the Europeans sending a 10,000-strong military force to Lebanon whose mission would be to police the Syrian refugee camps and prevent refugee migrants from trying to cross the Mediterranean. As boatloads of Syrian refugees continue to unload their human cargo
on the beaches of Cyprus, the island’s President Nikos Christodoulides told
reporters that the Syrian refugees in Lebanon are the beneficiaries of
significant EU financial aid. “This aid can’t be given while we have to deal
with this issue,” Christodoulides said, adding that he personally spoke with EU
Commission Chief Ursula von der Leyen. “It’s not only the Republic of Cyprus
but the EU itself that is facing a serious problem given these phenomena we
have seen in recent days."But money is not the issue. You can give the Lebanese authorities (a Feudal religious Mafia) all the money that you want: They will steal itand the Syrian refugees will still migrate to Europe by the boatload.
The EU is facing in Cyprus the same issue it is still dealing with in Italy and Greece. Refugees and migrants arriving in these two EU countries do not get any assistance from the EU, and most EU countries reject the principle of an proportionate distribution of the refugees across host European countries.
In the last 48 hours, more than 350 migrants and asylum seekers, almost exclusively Syrian nationals, arrived in Cyprus by boat, according to Cypriot government spokesman Constantinos Letymbiotis. It’s believed more boatloads of migrants are on their way. Last month, some 450 Syrian migrants aboard six boats were spotted off the southeastern coast of Cyprus within a 24-hour span. All six boats had departed from Lebanon.
The EU is willing to give Lebanon more money to cope with the huge number of
refugees it hosts, but “for this thing to happen, Lebanon shouldn’t allow
migrants to leave and come to Cyprus,” Christodoulides said. What he chooses to ignore is that Lebanon is not selling its sovereignty. Money is not the issue. Lebanon's existence is at stake. If allowed to stay permanently, Lebanon will become a Syrian province. Lebanon has been
under a Syrian-Iranian occupation for decades, lawlessness and crime are thriving, and
the country has no control over its borders. The vast majority of the
Syrian refugees are not even refugees technically. These are people who travel
freely between Syria (from which they supposedly fled) and Lebanon (where they
benefit from hard currency assistance from the EU), and who smuggle goods,
weapons and mercenaries acorss the lawless border between the two countries. Syria’s Assad is essentially
replacing his military occupation of the country (1974-2005) by a demographic
occupation. The "refugees" migrating to Europe are very likely agents and operatives of the Syrian regime, and the threat they pose to Lebanon will transfer to Europe.
Meanwhile, Cyprus said a government proposal to enable repatriations of Syrian refugees to designated “safe” areas within Syria is “gaining ground” among the island nation’s fellow EU member states. Lebanon has been calling for this measure for years, but the EU continues to turn a deaf ear to Lebanese proposals.
Justice Minister Constantinos Ioannou said that given the potential risk of the Israeli-Hamas war in Gaza engulfing Lebanon and other Middle Eastern states, it’s incumbent on the EU to reach a collective decision on Syria. The only solution to the Syrian refugees’ drama is to take every measure necessary, including military measures, to isolate and eventually topple the Syrian regime.
Syrian refugees belong to Syria. Palestinian refugees belong to Palestine-Israel. The Lebanese are preparing for war: By 2031, all the Syrian children born in Lebanon will be 20 years old. This Syrian population is a ticking time bomb: These young Syrians with no future and no prospects will form criminal gangs, terrorist gangs, and militias. Just like the Palestinian refugees who arrived in 1948: Less than twenty years later, by 1965, the Palestine Liberation Organization was founded with its affiliated terror groups and militias, and proceeded in 1973 to initiate a war to topple the Lebanese government and turn Lebanon into a substitute Palestine. There is every reason to think that the Syrian refugees will do the same.
