Migrants are disguising themselves as Syrians to enter Europe

Washington Post:

VIENNA — Moving among the tens of thousands of Syrian war refugees passing through the train stations of Europe are many who are neither Syrian nor refugees, but hoping to blend into the mass migration and find a back door to the West.

There are well-dressed Iranians speaking Farsi who insist they are members of the persecuted Yazidis of Iraq. There are Indians who don’t speak Arabic but say they are from Damascus. There are Pakistanis, Albanians, Egyptians, Kosovars, Somalis and Tunisians from countries with plenty of poverty and violence, but no war.

It should come as no surprise that many migrants seem to be pretending they are someone else. The prize, after all, is the possibility of benefits, residency and work in Europe.

  1. … And, it boggles my mind that Europeans now fret about whether to call them “migrants” or “refugees” as the sympathiser lefties launch a scathing attack on their hesitant leaders by comparison with those in Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan. Well, those are REFUGEES for the simple reason that they will never be allowed to become citizens of these countries, whilst those heading to Europe are MIGRANTS, simply because THEY WILL BECOME CITIZENS, enjoying citizen rights without the obligation.
