I
do not live in Israel and thus my perspective on the illegal infiltration of
natives from the African continent is based on what I read and see on the
screen. However, as my understanding of the situation goes, the way Israel found
itself swarmed and swamped by approximately 100,000 people, who entered the
country without permission, requires harsh criticism of the country's apparatus.
It is called leadership incompetence.
I read that some of
these infiltrators have been in Israel for over five years. Really?! I
understand one person enters and is given some legal status, even two, and three
of them. But that is not the case here. The first ones entered and then stayed
in Israel, with no permission and no background investigation and have created
a precedent. Probably, people in Israel thought it was kind of cute; the
Israelis overlooked the situation and disregarded the fact that it is not at all
right for people, who invaded their country without legal consent, to stay. Once the first infiltrators
"settled" in, the word that Israel is a safe haven for invasion
spread like wild fire. And then when the number of the invaders began to grow
and the infiltration flood got stronger, Israel should have then nipped the
phenomenon in the bud, not let it spread out of control, as it continues to
spread as of this writing.
Now when there are some 100,000
people who already entered the country, illegally, Israel is panicking; Israel you
have a major problem on hand.
First, it is a matter of
security. No well managed country will
allow people to enter its border illegally.
If these people want to work in Israel they need to apply for work
permit from the Israeli embassy or consulate in their country, not just break
into the country, as a thief in the night, and expect not be apprehended.
If it was a matter of obtaining
a political asylum they could have applied for such status in the legal way:
enter the Israeli embassy in their country and ask for political protection and
then allow Israel's authorities to decide if the state wishes to cooperate in
their case. But no, they found a sucker country to impose their presence, to
invade and stay, no question asked.
Then, there is a matter
of health. Since these infiltrators did not go through an immigration process,
they also did not go through medical check-up and the result, they brought
along with them diseases that were long been contained and Israel no longer deals
with them. They have reduced the health standard of the country.
Additionally, with their
lack of education, they are bound to reduced the quality of the education standard's
poll.
None of these people were
running away from their homeland; it was all planned. These people, claiming
hardship, found thousands of dollars, needed to pay for the journey to reach
Israel's border. From where does so much money comes into the hands of such poor
people? Is it not an enigma? Perhaps
Israel's enemies are paying them these sums to infiltrate the country so they
can establish an army from within and in time be able to assist Israel's enemy
to strike the country, as they plan?
The
government of Israel appears unfathomably incompetence in addressing this problem.
In
2012 the USA deported at least 400,000 illegals. In Europe the authorities
deport such people as well. No one shouts that the USA or the Europeans are
racists for deporting people of dark skin. I once stayed in hotel nearby Orly
Airport, Paris, France. There, each
night, the French authorities were bringing people, appeared to be from African
countries, for deportation. These people
were kept overnight at the hotel, in an assigned floor under guard, and in the
morning they were put on planes bound for the countries from where they came. There
was no news coverage, just daily routine of deportation. But when Israel has to do the same, the world
is up in arms calling her racist just because these people are of dark skin and
Jews are acting to apply the law of order of the their country.
Yes,
one can have some empathy when seeing the Israeli authorities rounding people
up, especially when we speak about people from the African continent. World's perception is that suffering in
Africa is the order of the day and so these people are seen as victims. But,
there is no need to shed a tear, because if we do, then, regardless to color of
skin and creed, we need to feel sorry for any and all law breaking people; after
all, they broke the law and racked Israel's sovereignty. If these people really wanted to come to
Israel to work and better their life, then why not grab a work permit application,
available at the Israeli embassy in their country, and wait for a reply? None of these people were under any immediate
danger, as people under immediate danger do not have thousands of dollars to
pay for their flee, rather they run as fast as their feet can take them with
the shirt on their back.
And
what about Israel's sovereignty? With them being able to so easily infiltrate
the country, taking over suburbs in various Israeli cities it only indicates to
the world that Israel has no sustainable sovereignty or, if it does, it has
hard time maintaining it.
One
U.N envoy found it necessary to comment about the newly applied deportation
process of these invaders, asking Israel to give these invaders some formal
labor status. The question is, does
Israel need the service of these people so she is to issue such status decree? Also, why this U.N pundit does not suggest the
same to the EU and USA authorities that have been deporting illegals for
decades?
In
the conflict the Arabs have with Israel, her deeply seeded quest is to maintain
the state's Jewish nature. When 100,000 non-Jewish infiltrators enter the state,
illegally, and that flood continues, how can Israel expect to maintain her
Jewish character? This infiltration is projecting to the world an image that
Israel has no defensible borders, she has no law against illegal infiltration
and in fact is open and free for all, and thus the message is, 'Shalom to all;
welcome to Israel.' How can Israel expect to prevail as a Jewish state this way?
More so, most of these infiltrators are
Moslems and Islam sees Israel as their land. So in essence Israel has allowed
the enemy invade her and slowly take over.
And
then there is the crime factor. People
who have no legal status, who work under the radar, at a minimum wage, cannot make
ends meet and live up to the host country's survival standards, and thus will,
automatically, revert to crime and that is exactly what has happened and is happening;
crime in the towns where these infiltrators set foot and stayed went out of
control. In essence Israel has invited
crime into her midst.
Israel
has a neck to invite trouble in. In 1993, with signing of the Oslo Accords,
Israel invited into her land the terrorist Yasser Arafat and his 10,000 terrorist
troops and their supportive families, and thus opened the door to Arab terrorists
to embed and, at close range, operate against its citizens.
In
2006, when the first infiltrator entered the land of Israel, illegally, Israel left
the phenomenon of people from African countries crossing her border, unchecked,
and today the state is drowning in a 100,000 illegals' problem; a problem it never
had before and thus has no idea how to handle and deal with, overcome and
eradicate.
Israel
has made herself a magnate for illegals.
The
bible instructs Jews to treat, the stranger with kindness – also the orphan and
widow; sources: Exodus 22:20, Deuteronomy14:28, 16:9-14, 24:17-22; Ruth was a Moabite and the great grandmother of
King David; she was a non-Jew, a stranger, who joined the Jewish nation and married
the Jew Boaz.
According to the Bible, the biblical stranger is the one who
comes to live among the local residents for a long period of time. Every humane
society is measured by its relations with the weak in her midst. In a society where there is no welcoming of the
weak, when the strong "devours" the weak, we can say that the law of
the jungle rules. But this is not the
case here. These people snuck in and invaded the country, without permission,
and were treated with kindness and support. In return, with time, they
acclimated and became confident and their thank you gesture to the host country,
in which they live illegally, was to create an intolerable social circumstances;
they simply cannot remain to live in Israel.
Comes
the time for Israel to recognize and thus separate compassion from her needs
for security and social stability. These invaders impede Israel's security and social
stability and therefore, all of them, without exception, must be deported. If they really want to come and live in
Israel, the doors to the immigration department in the Israeli embassy or
consulate in their country are wide open. If Israel has no diplomatic representation
in their country, then they need to travel to a nearby country, where Israel is
diplomatically represented and apply there to come to live in Israel. Paying thousands of dollars to some Bedouin
thugs to bring them to the threshold of the state of Israel and from there just
cross the border, illegally, is not the right way; such entry is considered illegal
by international law and it is unfair to the citizens of the country who wish
to preserve their sovereignty.
Illegals
from afar needs to stay afar.
