    Oh no it’s so much worse than a random boat sinking in the night. The Greek Coast Guard was there and did nothing until after the boat went down. Despite calls for aid. There are also allegations they actively caused the sinking by trying to push the boat away from national waters.

      The Greeks have been causing ships to sink in the Mediterranean for some 5,000 years. Its almost not a novelty anymore.

        Be glad this time they didn’t set the boat on fire like in the old times.

      We will be seeing this more and more in Europe generally. Europeans seem to have tired of economic immigrants and the problems and expense they bring.
