European Migration
Crisis
Migration problems are not new in human society, with the lure
of good job opportunities or social services drawing a populace
struggling under oppression or dealing with starvation to cross
a border legally or illegally. Mexicans have been crossing the
Rio Grande for decades, Chinese workers unloaded amid the cargo
at San Francisco ports, starving N Korean children sneaking into
China in desperation, and increasingly during the wars in the
Middle East, migrants crossing the Mediterranean in boats to get
to Europe – the land of jobs and social services. Migrants land
in France and try to cross to the UK via the Chunnel. Boats
leaving Libya for Italy regularly sink, drowning hundreds.
Per the Zetas in 2003, the reaction of governments to the
increased press to migrate during the anticipated Earth changes
will be to tighten the borders.
- 3,500 Migrants try to enter Channel
Tunnel to go from France to UK
July 30, 2015
http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/29/europe/france-uk-channel-tunnel-migrants/
- The tunnel, also known as the
Chunnel, runs 50 kilometers (31 miles) from a point near
Calais, in northern France, to Folkestone, in southeastern
England. In just the past two days, 3,500 migrants have
tried to cross the Channel Tunnel between France and the
United Kingdom -- a dangerous breach that has paralyzed
traffic and resulted in at least one death. Calais has
long been a gathering place for migrants trying to find a
way into the UK. This year alone, Eurotunnel has
intercepted 37,000 migrants. France and Great Britain
agreed to work together "to return migrants, particularly
to West Africa, to ensure that people see that making this
journey does not lead to them coming to Europe and being
able to settle in Europe."
- Boat Packed with Migrants Sinks off
Libya
August 28, 2015
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/libya-migrant-boat-sinks
- Libyan authorities were collecting
the bodies of migrants who drowned off the coastal city of
Zuwara, in the latest disaster involving desperate people
trying to reach Europe. The United Nations refugee agency
said that up to 200 people were missing and feared dead
after the Libyan coast guard carried out rescue operations
for two boats carrying an estimated 500 migrants.
- What’s Behind the Surge in Refugees
Crossing the Mediterranean Sea
May 21, 2015
http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/04/20/world/europe/surge-in-refugees
- The civil war in Libya has made it
easier for smugglers to transport people through the
country. As a result, the number of people fleeing war and
poverty in Africa and the Middle East to reach Europe via
the Mediterranean Sea has surged since last year. So far
this year more than 1,800 migrants may have drowned
attempting the journey.
ZetaTalk Prediction
1/7/2003: Travel
restrictions will likely be imposed by governments in response
to migrations, but not until this occurs. Thus, this will vary
by country, within country, and in truth is in place long
before pole shift issues such as weather changes and
increasing starvation occurred. Thus, until the week going
into the shift, when all controls are likely to be lifted due
to distraction by those assigned to enforce the restrictions,
any number of controls may be imposed, and suddenly, based on
Earth changes.
So how is Europe doing? Not well. The press to gain access to
Europe has now shifted to a land route via Turkey through Greece
and thence overland to Hungary or Austria.
- Migrants Crisis: Austria and Balkans
call for EU Answer
August 27, 2015
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-34071167
- Serbia and Macedonia have told a
summit in Vienna the EU must come up with an action plan
to respond to the influx of migrants into Europe. Austria
has complained that the EU has failed to address the
problem of people entering via the Western Balkans.
Germany says it expects at least 800,000 people to seek
asylum in the country this year - far more than any other
EU nation.
- ‘Up to 10 million migrants on their
way to EU’
August 27, 2015
https://soundcloud.com/rttv/10-million-migrants-pressenza
- Austrian police have confirmed
that between 20 and 50 refugees have been found dead in a
tractor trailer in the country's east. It appears the
migrants, whose bodies have begun to decompose, suffocated
in the back of the truck.
- Thousands Breach Europe's Wall of Wire
August 27, 2015
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3212601/Agonising-moment
- Screaming in agony, a young
migrant girl gets her hair tangled in barbed wire as her
family scramble through mud seeking a better life in
Europe. Some 3,241 migrants, including almost 700
children, arrived in Hungary yesterday alone, the highest
ever number, according to police. Most of the
migrants had begun their gruelling journey in Syria,
Afghanistan or Pakistan.
- One way ticket? Macedonia lets
Thousands of Migrants through to EU amid Bloc's Crisis
August 26, 2015
http://www.rt.com/news/313169-macedonia-serbia-migrants-crisis/
- With the flow continuing at a
steady pace in Greece, which is setting up boat transits
from its islands to the mainland for dozens of thousands
of people, and Macedonia having cleared the backlog,
thousands arrived in Serbia overnight. More than
5,000 have entered the country to transit north before
they cross by foot into Hungary and Europe's borderless
Schengen zone. Macedonia has been asking the EU to step up
its own efforts and criticized its neighbor Greece for
dealing with the refugee crisis in a way that made the
migration pace over to its borders completely incompatible
with processing abilities.
ZetaTalk Comment
9/5/2015: The
Middle East has become a horror with ISIS roaming about
killing the populace with abandon. Efforts to get the
countries there to fight ISIS runs into the age-old religious
battles between Sunni and Shia. ISIS lives between the
fractures, like a sadistic horde that cannot be stopped. War
torn Afghanistan and Pakistan are hardly better. These
migrants do not run north into Russia or its satellites as
these borders are well guarded and refuse any migration, a
long standing practice. Word gets around, and the word has
always been that Europe welcomes migrant workers, and will put
immigrants on the welfare dole. Migrants, like water, will
flow in the direction of least resistance.
Thus Europe finds itself the
target of frightened and desperate immigrants trying to reach
what they have always heard was a welcoming land of
opportunity and security. They are not so much running to
security as running from homelessness and starvation and
perhaps a brutal death at the hands of ISIS. They cross the
Mediterranean in boats and then attempt to infiltrate the UK
via the Chunnel. They flood into Greece from Turkey, both
countries moving the flood of migrants along as quickly as
possible until they pile up at the border of Austria or
Hungary. Does Europe block them, creating a humanitarian
crisis, absorb them, or find yet another solution for what
threatens to become a flood ten million strong?
Only recently, Europe was seeking immigrants to fill job slots.
Now with the global depression changing the situation, these
immigrants are being returned. But the word, apparently, has not
reached the desperate. What is the solution? The Zetas
predict that where Europe has been slow to react, it is
inevitable. The borders will be tightened. And if migration is
like water, as the Zetas say, where will they flow next?
- Hungary Plans Migrant Holding Camps
amid Clampdown at Border
August 28, 2015
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/hungary-migrants-holding-camps
- Hungary plans to tighten laws on
migration next week and set up holding camps near Serbia
but would only send soldiers to help police at its
southern border as a last resort. Transit zones near the
Serbian border would hold migrants while their asylum
requests are processed and that could take several days.
- Refugees Struggle to Assimilate in
Germany
August 28, 2015
http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2015/8/28/berlin-germany-europe
- Throughout their journey from
Syria to Europe, Ahmed Khuzami and his little brother
Abdul-Rahman viewed Germany’s capital as the shining light
at the end of the tunnel. As they crossed the Aegean Sea
from Turkey to Greece on a dangerously overcrowded rubber
boat and as they sprinted across fenced borders in
Macedonia and Serbia and hid in dense forests to avoid
Hungarian police - they reached the heart of Europe’s
wealthiest country. The German government announced it is
expecting to register 800,000 asylum applications in 2015
— quadruple the number of applications processed last
year. Germany’s Federal Office for Migration and Refugees
has added 650 staff members in the past year, and
supplementary budgets to deal with the increase were
recently approved on a national level by the German
government and on a state level by the Berlin Senate,
enabling 1,000 additional new staff members to be hired in
the coming months. Nevertheless, with every passing day,
the line at the Health and Welfare office keeps getting
longer.
- EU Migrant Crisis: Germany Eases
Asylum Rules for Syrians
August 24, 2015
http://www.themalaymailonline.com/world/article/eu-migrant-crisis-germany
- As criticism mounts over the
bloc’s response to the crisis, Germany said it has stopped
returning Syrian asylum-seekers to their first EU port of
entry, becoming the first member state to effectively
simplify the application process for those fleeing the
brutal civil war. Under the so-called Dublin rules, the
first EU country where an asylum-seeker arrives is usually
required to process the claimant’s application. In
practice, this means countries on the EU’s borders like
Greece or Italy are overwhelmed with applications as
thousands arrive on their shores after a dangerous journey
across the Mediterranean.
ZetaTalk Comment
9/5/2015: Europe
has been slow to establish a policy because there simply isn’t
a viable solution. A huge percentage of the world is essentially
bankrupt, unable to meet
the growing demands of their citizens. Governments are running
scared, squeezed between economic downturns that refuses to
abate and Earth changes they fear will only get worse. When
asked to take in refugees, Heads of State quiet shake their
heads. There are no offers. We have predicted that countries
will get increasingly
strict when faced with a
flood of refugees. Those who are already brutal will get increasingly
brutal. Just where the
push back occurs in Europe is yet to be seen, but it is surely
coming.
Indeed, attitudes toward immigration are changing, and are
being put to the test. Russia opens their borders to those they
consider Russian in
the war stricken Ukraine. But France and Sweden are re-thinking
their lax rules.
- No entry? Sweden’s Far-Right calls for
Vote on Immigration, French want to Shut Borders
August 30, 2015
http://www.rt.com/news/313854-sweden-le-pen-migrants/
- Marine Le Pen, leader of France’s
right-wing National Front party, declared that immigration
should be brought to a halt, calling for the country’s
borders to be closed. Meanwhile, the far-right Sweden
Democrats say a referendum should be held on the issue.
Having accepted 80,000 refugees last year, Sweden has
taken on the burden of accommodating the largest number of
migrants in the EU as a percentage of the native
population. Sweden’s migrant-friendly policies have long
made it one of the most favored destinations among
asylum-seekers. Maintaining that the practice of providing
social and medical support to asylum-seekers should be put
to an end, Le Pen also suggested that Islam should not be
welcomed in France. Well-known for her anti-migrant
rhetoric, Le Pen’s speech comes not only at the kickoff of
the new political campaigning season in France, but also
in the midst of the worsening refugee crisis in Europe. As
3,000 migrants arrive daily at the Macedonian border en
route to the EU, with over 2,500 crossing from Serbia into
Hungary in just one day this week, European leaders have
yet to agree on comprehensive measures to deal with the
wave of refugees.
- Russia Accepted over 1Mn Ukrainian
Refugees Forced Out of Homes by Donbass War
August 28, 2015
http://www.rt.com/politics/313692-russia-accepted-over-1mn-ukrainian/
- Over 1 million people have moved
to Russia from southeast Ukraine since the beginning of
the armed conflict and about 600,000 of them decided never
to return home, the head of the Federal Migration Service
says. In the same interview, Romodanovsky said that his
agency was actively fighting illegal migration and over
the past 2.5 years they have managed to detain and send
back about 1.5 million people who tried to get on the
Russian territory by bypassing the rules.
Panama Locks Crack
The S American roll is in process, as we noted in Issue
463 of this newsletter when the Kick’em Jenny subterranean
volcano awakened and a magnitude 6.6 quake struck near Barbados.
But what about the western edge of the Caribbean Plate? Panama
is on a platelet, a small piece that is sometimes considered
independent of the Caribbean or S American Plates, but in the
main is considered part of the Caribbean Plate. This Panama
platelets is shoved around from all directions – by the
Caribbean Plate, the S American Plate, the North Andes Platelet,
the Nazca Plate, and the Cocos Plate. The Panama locks are right
in the middle of this little platelet, and the locks
are in trouble.
- A Concrete Sample Was Pulled from the
New Panama Canal Locks and It Does Not Look Good
August 27, 2015
http://gcaptain.com/a-concrete-sample-was-pulled-from-the-new-panama-canal-locks
- The crack and subsequent leaks
appeared recently in the concrete of one of the interior
chambers of the new Cocoli Locks on the Pacific side of
the waterway during testing of the new locks. The main
contractor for the Third Set of Locks project, issued a
statement last Friday acknowledging the leaks, but has
since gone quiet.
ZetaTalk Prediction
12/4/2010: Since
Panama and the other countries in Central America are situated
on the Caribbean Plate, they will be pushed over the Cocos
Plate with great trauma to these countries.
MODIS images do not yet show a breach of the locks. No
discernable change between 9/28/2012 and 12/22/2013
and 8/20/2015.
The S America roll is palpable in the stress along the Andes
too, where the S American Plate is pushed over the Nazca Plate.
If the Panama locks cracked on August 27, it is no surprise that
huge cracks appeared in Peru on August 21, as noted in the Pole
Shift ning blog dedicated to the S American roll.
- Large Cracks in the Soil Generated
Fear among the Population
August 21, 2015
http://www.telesurtv.net/news/Nueva-emergencia-en-Peru-por-reptacion
- At least 19 towns in the district
Piscobamba, Ancash region, Peru are in state of
emergency due to new landslides that caused large cracks
in the soil and fear in the population. In May, the
Peruvian government declared an emergency in the district
of Piscobamba for 60 days because of the damage left by
the landslide and creeping ground. Landslides, rains and
drainage caused the collapse of 100 houses in this county,
and authorities moved to place reviewed the status of
damaged infrastructure.
Spencer’s Light
When Malala survived her assassination attack, the Zetas stated
her survival had been assisted, the
trajectory of the bullet slightly altered so her brain was not
damaged nor her brain stem severed. Injury yes, but recoverable.
Malala went on to be the brave saint she is in the media,
worldwide, a force against the brutality of the Taliban. Did
something similar happen in the recent aborted massacre aboard a
high speed train in France? Yes. Per the Zetas, the news is
filled with horror stories about ISIS and their brutality. The
pushback against this brutality is hindered by mixed loyalties
in the Middle East. Saudi Arabia is Sunni as is ISIS, but Iran
is willing to fight ISIS as Iran is Shia. ISIS is mixed in with
the freedom fighter's push against Syria’s Assad, so US funding
for the freedom fighters is actually funding ISIS. Then there is
Turkey, which considers the Kurds a group to be countered,
calling them terrorists. Oops, the Kurd’s are the most effective
fighting force against ISIS, and the US is arming them. The US
enlisted Turkey in the fight against ISIS and the first thing
Turkey did was bomb the Kurds. Given all of this, those fearing
ISIS is infiltrating Europe and the US must be overwhelmed with
helplessness. Thus, per the Zetas, the Council of Worlds granted
an exception to the Rule of Non-Interference. Spencer and his
crew were assisted.
- A Shot, a Glimpse of an AK-47, and
U.S. Servicemen Pounced on Gunman on Train to France

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/23/world/europe/americans-recount-gunmans-attack
- The violent encounter was over in
barely two minutes. But if not for the quick action by the
two American servicemen and the suspect’s malfunctioning
automatic rifle, many lives would have been lost. “It
could have been a real carnage,” said Chris Norman, a
British businessman who also helped restrain the suspect

- After the suspect was restrained,
Mr Skarlatos - who only recently returned from a tour of
Afghanistan - began disarming the gunman's pile of weapons
and realised the AK-47 had jammed. "He didn't know how to
fix it, which is very lucky". Mr Skarlatos added: "We
just did what we had to do. You either run away or fight.
We chose to fight and got lucky and didn't die."
- French Hero's Wife: He Thought he was
Going to Die
August 24, 2015
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/france/11817490/France-train-attack
- The first heroic passenger to
wrestle a weapon from the train gunman was named last
night as Frenchman Mark Moogalian. His actions together
with those of Alek Skarlatos, Spencer Stone and Anthony
Sadler as well as Chris Norman helped to save many lives.
Mr Magoolian tackled the Kalashnikov assault rifle off the
gunman, who then drew a sidearm and shot him in the neck
before taking back the rifle, his sister revealed.
ZetaTalk Admission
8/29/2015: The
Kalashnikov is not known as a tricky automatic weapon. It is
reliable and easy to use, thus its popularity over the years
and around the world. So what prevented this Kalashnikov from
spraying the train passengers, as was clearly his intent? The
trigger has been pulled. A second curiosity is the missing
magazine for the attacker’s handgun. This is not something
that would pass notice when one prepares for a massacre. Were
the heroes assisted? Intervention is not unknown, as we
recently reported on the matter of the apparently miraculous rescue of
infants, or protection
of some individuals from
assassination.
The world is polarizing, with
acts of sadistic control such as ISIS displays and touts
almost daily balanced by heroism such as Malala displays. Malala’s light stands as an example of heroism
against oppression, and indeed her survival was assisted, in a
heartbeat, by the Council of Worlds allowing an intervention.
The four heroes on the French train did not think of
themselves, but knew that unless the attacker were disarmed
all on that train would be massacred. Unlike the train staff
who barricaded themselves and turned a deaf ear to the
passengers they left to be slaughtered. Now, as with Malala’s
light, we will have Spencer’s light. An example for others to
follow.
