Secret Militia Significantly Cuts Down Human Trafficking to Italy

In July and August the number of refugees arriving in Italy across the Mediterranean has declined significantly. Compared to the previous year, just under 90 per cent fewer refugees have reached the Italian coast, as the figures for the Italian Ministry of the Interior show. The decline is supposed to be related to a mysterious militia.

The number of refugees coming to Europe across the Mediterranean has recently declined radically. One reason for this could be a mysterious group. The so-called "Brigade 48" in the Libyan port of Sabratha ensures that there are no smuggling ships. Much is still unclear about the group: the members of the militia are armed, at the head of the group is said to be a former mafioso, who had perhaps even worked as a smuggler.
"Brigade 48" is almost certainly a police unit
As the "Süddeutsche Zeitung" reported, the group recruits itself from former military and police officers. It is unclear who is behind the brigade and where it gets its money from. Should the government in Tripoli be responsible for them, this would be a spectacular turnaround: then money from Europe could flow indirectly into the pockets of the brigade. As the news agency Reuters has reported, the militia now consists of several hundred members. Witnesses report that members of the brigade are patrolling on the beaches and almost already appear as police.
Not the first incident in Libya
Similar developments took place last year in Sabratha's neighboring city Suwara, as a kind of citizen militia took over the control in the city and the city was mostly freed from human smugglers. How much influence the group has on the decline in refugee numbers is currently unclear. Fact: Compared to the previous year, the figures in August have fallen by almost 90 percent.

Obviously, this doesn't fix the problem. Someone is paying off the militia to block the beaches so that these poor people can't leave. As someone who was on a Navy ship just off Libya in 1975 trying to incite Kadafi, the problem is the Islamic culture.----So, who will help these poor people? Immigration was a code word for a cattle call from the liberals in the West to destabilize Western society. These poor are caught in the middle. Maybe just maybe, PF should come up with a more practical solution.---The bottom line is the grave problem with the religion itself and how power, prestige, and money flow to the top of a triangle. This "parallel religion to Christianity" spoken of by our gracious pontiff just doesn't work economically. So, why allow it to infiltrate and destroy the West?

The only real solution is forced conversion of Muslims to Catholicism, and open borders of Christians such as Ethiopians and Eritreans to Europe, with a promise of reduced standard of living for the decadent cultural and political liberal and leftist intelligensia and ivory tower wealthy.
