    .01% poverty-murder over 400 million people since 1995, more than all wars in recorded history

    “Crimes against humanity” include any of the following acts committed as part of a widespread or systematic attack directed against any civilian population, with knowledge of the attack:

    murder;
    extermination;
    enslavement;…
    the crime of apartheid;
    other inhumane acts of a similar character intentionally causing great suffering or serious bodily or mental injury.

    – International Criminal Court (ICC)

    The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) (1), the hunger-ending organizations RESULTS (2), and Bread for the World (3) estimate that 15 million people die each year from preventable poverty, of whom 11 million are children under the age of five. Jeffrey Sachs says the total deaths are closer to 8 million (4). Either way, poverty causes more human destruction every year than those claimed in the Holocaust.

    The total deaths from poverty in the last 15 years is conservatively greater than from all wars, revolutions, murders, accidents, and suicides in the 20th century (5). In the past 20 years, the total deaths from poverty probably eclipse all the above categories of death in all known human history; ~400 million (6).

    Make sure you get this: in your lifetime, human beings have allowed other people in poverty, mostly helpless children under the age of five, to die before our eyes in slow, gruesome, painful death in numbers greater than all of the catastrophic events in all recorded human history. To put this number in one perspective that I provide for my students: since I graduated from high school in 1978, preventable poverty has killed ~ 500 million people, one-half a billion; which equals the entire population of the United States plus five additional Californias.

    Europe is being overrun by refugees from Washington’s, and Israel’s, hegemonic policies in the Middle East and North Africa that are resulting in the slaughter of massive numbers of civilians. The inflows are so heavy that European governments are squabbling among themselves about who is to take the refugees. Hungary is considering constructing a fence, like the US and Israel, to keep out the undesirables. Everywhere in the Western media there are reports deploring the influx of migrants; yet nowhere is there any reference to the cause of the problem.

    Illegal immigrants France to UK (Dover-Calais) border - august 2015 compilation

    Calais eurotunnel has been under big pressure when African immigrants from France want to arrive to Brittan through tunnel. There is no proper plan or solution for this problem, because by law they are welcomed to UK when they cross the border to Great Britain.

    Storming Spain's Razor-Wire Fence: Europe Or Die (Episode 1/4)

    Since 2000, more than 27,000 migrants and refugees have died attempting the perilous journey to Europe. With an unprecedented number of people breaking through its heavily barricaded borders in 2014, the EU continues to fortify its frontiers.

    Calais: Illegals complain and throw away food given by French leftists

    Some French leftists decided to hand out food to illegal immigrants in Calais. Illegals quickly took over the distribution of the food and stormed the van, trying to get in and grab all they could. Afterwards the woman visited a camp and the illegal immigrants were complaining to her that ''the food is not good''. The ungrateful illegals then took the food and threw it on the ground. Illegal immigrants in Europe expect to be placed in 5 star hotels when they arrive, when their expectations aren't met they get aggressive. How long will we tolerate these demanders?

    Pope Francis: nations that block illegal immigration should seek God’s forgiveness

    The hits, they just keep on coming. In his Wednesday audience today, Pope Francis called for “respect for migrants” and stated that those who seek to curb illegal immigration should seek God’s forgiveness. You can try to lambaste the secular site quoted below as being biased, but, just to quell that temptation, I also provide Rome Reports’ video of his audience that includes the same message.
