Libya calls for "electric fence" on border to keep immigrants from heading north to Europe

Libya’s prime minister has demanded the European Union (EU) helps his nation build an electrified fence along its open southern border to help stem the flow of migrants headed for Europe. Faiez Serraj, head of the UN-backed unity government based in Tripoli, slammed Europe’s response to the crisis in an interview with The Times, saying the bloc must act to “discourage” migrants from making the trip across the Mediterranean.

He also demanded the bloc pressure migrants to return to their home nations and lift an arms embargo so the Libyan navy can arm themselves to fight people traffickers.

“We still need more pressure from the EU,” he said, “to discourage uncontrolled flow from neighboring and other African states. We are absolutely not after profiting from this assistance but we want to stop this humanitarian crisis.”

Many migrants could also be terrorists in disguise, the prime minister warned.

Yes, a simple electric fence is easily circumvented - just throw an old mattress over it.

Sure, as long as they are Christian and not Muslim.

How’s about a KINETIC fence instead? Maybe something more like a naval flotilla hanging out just over the horizon?

They’re coming from all over Africa on trucks on ROADS:

Eric Prince laid out this whole easy plan on how to shut-down the problem.

You do NOT do it at sea; you do it on the roads.

Apparently they only use a dozen or so. You set up checkpoints there, and nearby you have a holding area.

He said it’s ABUNDANTLY do-able, it’s just there’s no political WILL.

No you do not have holding areas.

You have bullets.

Use them.

Everyone else will turn around and tell the incoming what happened.

Everyone will turn around.

Big problem becomes small problem and checkpoints can be manned by just a few with big guns.

Libya can get a fence but we can’t.

******************************************************
We have so much ground to cover. People are so far removed from reality it’s frightening.

Listen to this video of this lady objecting to her boyfriend/husband being arrested when they were “just going on vacation”. Unreal. She says:

“Police have no right to ask for people’s immigration status. That’s illegal. That’s unconstitutional. I know my rights. We’re not criminals.”
