France is now implementing its new policy towards the refugees trying to cross the border from Italy: half have been returned to Italy, and the other half are in custody.Your move, Mr. Berlusconi.
According to AGI:
Half of the 2500 Immigrants in France Returned to Italy
(AGI) Paris - Half of the 2500 immigrants from Lampedusa arrested in France have been returned to Italy, while the rest have been detained by the French authorities. The news was reported by border police quoted by the daily newspaper, Le Figaro. “We will investigate in detail every individual situation, and not everyone will pass the test,” explained the same source, commenting on a new circular letter from the Interior Ministry establishing rigorous conditions for using in France the temporary residency permits issued by other Schengen area countries.
“Get back to where you once belonged…”

Id rather be in French custody than stuck in whatever N.African hell-hole I just escaped from.
Clearly, the question of how to reverse such immigration is a complex and tangled issue.
The quickest way to slow the outflow of immigrants from these Third World cesspits is by creating economic opportunity that will encourage these people to remain in their homelands.
The problem with most current methods of doing this is that they rely upon the model of foreign aid, which plainly does not work.
With almost boring regularity, bulk economic assistance is routinely funneled into the pockets of a recipient nation's ruling elite. Micro-loan organizations such as Kiva make a commendable effort at circumventing this pattern of resource diversion but it does not adequately address the fundamental issue.
The best way of providing assistance to hyper-corrupt Third World nations is to kill the top echelons of their looting class and make them into an example pour encouragé les autres.
If anything, we need to learn from Kiva's example and understand that almost any form of large-scale aid usually will never reach its intended recipients. For that reason, First World governments should consider a plan of providing high speed .50 caliber lead micro-doses of aid to countries that continue to suffer from crippling interference by their parasitic leadership class.
Few better starting points or examples of where such efforts should be directed exist than Robert Mugabe and the majority of Islamic rogue state leaders.

That is the prescription to save the patient, but it is considered too radical to put into practice. If the UN weren't a bunch of gangsters, this is what the blue helmets would have been doing for the last 50 years.

Plus the fact that their corrupt government leaders suck up all the aid and it never gets used to the people who really need it.
Ironically, our foreign aid does more to prop up their corrupt governments that it does to help economic development.
Maybe we should stop giving these corrupt governments money, and let them fail, and let the people rebuild their nations themselves. But then there would be civil war, and we'd have to step to "save civilians" and we'd jut put another corrupt government back in power.
Bah, what to do, what to do...
I see massive violence on the horizon for the entire world, the coming upheaval will last for several decades and will probably result in the re-colonization of many parts of the third world.
"The quickest way to slow the outflow of immigrants from these Third World cesspits is by creating economic opportunity that will encourage these people to remain in their homelands."
WRONG---
The quickest way to end it is to shoot their boats out from under them. They have no right to invade another nation. What do you think your ancestors would have done? EXACTLY--that's why they never tried this crap in the past.
RobertinMn: WRONG---
You seem to be new here so I'll merely refer you to another comment of mine:
As sulber nick pointed out in the other thread on this topic, sink enough of these boats and the "immigrants" will magically lose interest.
Better to kill the corrupt tyrannous elite of immigrant source nations than boatload after boatload of hapless f&%kwits.
These destitute nomads will never learn half as quickly as well-educated foreign aid parasite apparatchiks.
@RobertInMN and @Zenster:
I agree with RobertInMN here. No need to waste our money and lives in interfering in the internal affairs of various third world sinkholes. If we simply STOP SENDING THEM ANY MORE MONEY, they will have to sort out their own problems. Either way, it is none of our concern whatsoever.
See George Washington's Farewell Address - staying out of other people's business is one of the principles that America was founded upon.
1389: Either way, it is none of our concern whatsoever.
You take your isolationist stance a step too far over the line that involves our National Security.
According to your lights, we should ignore Iran's "internal affairs" as they pursue the acquisition of nuclear weapons and other WMDs.
While I doubt that such was your intent, it is best to remember that too many of these "third world sinkholes" are out to do the First World some serious harm.
"Do unto other before they do unto you", sometimes has equal, if not more, merit that the Golden Rule. Islam, in general, deserves such special attention.
A good example is how, as each of these rutbag cesspit Islamic tyrannies begins to totter, we should dash in and destroy their armaments depots. No sense in letting the Muslim Brotherhood absorb all of those shoulder-launched weapons and other munitions, right?
