The fire in the Lipa migrant camp

The Bosnian "refugee" camp near Lipa burned down on December 23, 2020. The timing is suspicious since one inevitably thinks of Moria and the consequences. What better way to soften European hearts shortly before Christmas Eve in order to achieve a similar effect? However, the Lipa case has some deviations from Moria, but none of them can really be explained.

    The camp in Bosnia was operated by the International Organization for Migration (IOM). The German daily Tagesschau wrote about the IOM camp on December 14: “The International Organization for Migration (IOM) operates refugee shelters all over Bosnia and Herzegovina. The IOM was not happy with the Lipa location in the spring. Because there is no infrastructure around the warehouse. It is neither connected to water nor to the electricity network and can only be reached via a dirt road.”

    Because the IOM found the camp to be a problem, the organization threatened to stop running it. It even gave the central government of Bosnia-Herzegovina an ultimatum, the Tagesschau reported.

    “If no solution can be found for the camp, the IOM will abandon it, IOM regional coordinator Peter Van der Auweraert announced in the Bosnian media. And that is by no means a bluff, emphasized the employee Natasa Zunic Omerovic at the gate to Camp Lipa: ‘On December 16, all of us will no longer show up for work. The people will then be homeless and not get the help that their human rights require’.”

    In fact, the IOM then suspended aid and the migrants left the camp.

    The larger city of Bihac was supposed to provide an empty factory hall as accommodation and EU funds had been promised for this. But the mayor refused, as German broadcaster ZDF reported on December 29: “First we have to look after our own citizens, now after refugees so that they can get through the winter. That must not become our problem.”

    A second alternative location, a barracks near Sarajevo, was blocked by the residents according to ZDF. The “refugees” had to spend the night in buses and some of them are now back at their starting point − the burned down camp near Lipa. This created the desired urgent humanitarian intervention scenario for all those who want to import “refugees” into the EU.

    “No food, no money, big problem,” reported the ZDF’s Heute-Journal exclusively on site. “I came for a better future”, an Afghan complained in front of a German camera, “but Lipa is not that”.

    It appears that the IOM itself had triggered the disaster in Lipa by being “understanding” about the migrants destroying their accommodation in a fire. The matter becomes even more dubious when one realizes that the IOM works closely with the German federal government, as stated on its website.

    “The Federal Republic of Germany has been a member state of the IOM since 1954. In Berlin, Nuremberg, Frankfurt/Main and Brandenburg, IOM employees implement migration projects in cooperation with state and non-state partners from politics, civil society and research.” The head of the IOM has good relations with the leftwing political party, the SPD in particular. Monica Goracci spoke in 2017 at a congress of the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung on the subject of “#arrived: Europe and the world – perspectives of refugee policy”.

    It can therefore hardly be assumed that the IOM canceled its humanitarian aid in Bosnia without prior consultation with the Federal Chancellery or the Foreign Ministry. The organization willfully contributed to the fact that the migrants are once again stranded a the burned down tent camp.

    2. “The timing is suspicious since one inevitably thinks of Moria and the consequences.”

      Indeed, just as on the Greek islands, the NGOs in Bosnia are trying to stir up discontent and provoke criminal action among the illegal migrant population. Much of this is due to the frustration of the SJWs who staff the NGOs, who don’t, and won’t, realize that host country governments, as well as the local people, don’t want the illegals around and aren’t prepared to tolerate their presence much longer. And in this particular case, in the Bihac region, they are Bosnian Muslims, who have little or no sympathy for their co-religionists from the Middle East and South Asia. But this runs counter to the narrative that the NGOs and the globalist interests that fund them wish to promote among the public and in the media.

      The illegals are increasingly a burdensome prop for the leftist-globalist backers of the NGOs. They can’t go into the EU, and don’t want to stay where they are. And the local Bosnian population doesn’t want them. But the illegals have unfortunately been indoctrinated before they left their countries of origin by globalist NGOs, their imams, and the media into believing that they have a perfect right to illegally enter Europe and live off the taxpayers there. The NGOs operating in Bosnia, as elsewhere, are very adept at manipulating their unfulfilled expectations, so they will remain in Bosnia and keep making trouble there.

      The political will remains lacking that could put an end to the illegals’ misguided, dysfunctional odyessy. Frustrated in their false hopes, they should be made to return to their countries of origin to be a disincentive and example to avoid for others who would otherwise be misled by leftist-globalists and others who mindlessly encourage mass migration. The longer they stay in Bosnia, or anywhere in the Balkans, they will be an ever worstening security problem.

    DESTRUCTIVE HAILSTORMS will become more frequent and violent with increasingly larger hail, predicted solar researcher Valentina Zharkova back in 2019 when she stated that it's one of many signs of an impending Grand Solar Minimum. This is exactly what we have witnessed this year in both Europe and the world. Here is the German town of Benediktbeuern in Bavaria after a hailstorm on August 26th. Almost all rooftops and cars were damaged. The centuries-old church and monastery were damaged for the first time ever. Interestingly, the monastery was rebuilt in 1699 during the Maunder Minimum. Combined with heavy rainfall, extreme weather will devastate a significant portion of our food production. For instance, heavy rainfall destroyed a quarter of all crops in Greece in just two days in September. However, mainstream media remains silent. Photo: X @safe0007/Sandor Feher

    NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s

    CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.

    NATIONALIST COLLABORATION TAKES SHAPE. Six parties met in Budapest on August 26th to sign a joint declaration confirming the friendship and political unity among the parties. The goal is to either form a new group in the European Parliament after the EU elections in June next year or to reconstitute the existing Identity and Democracy (ID) group with the new parties.

    European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections

    EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

    Swedish Weapon Takes Down Russia’s Best Attack Helicopter

    The Russian attack helicopter Ka-52 is considered one of the world's best and has struck fear in Ukraine, where it has hunted down tanks and other armored vehicles, often beyond the range of many light anti-aircraft systems. However, it has met its match in the Swedish air defense missile system RBS 70, which has quickly led to significant losses for the Russian helicopter forces.

    The Sun Drives Earth’s Climate, Not Carbon Dioxide

    Top Researchers Push Back Against Climate Lies."The correlation is as clear as day," explained the Israeli astrophysicist Nir Shaviv, who was hailed by the establishment, before his interview with Forbes was hastily deleted. What he says contradicts the climate narrative, which points to humans as responsible for Earth's climate. Shaviv firmly asserts that it is the sun that controls the climate, something that can be scientifically proven in many ways. Contrary to the popular belief, the sun's influence on Earth has, in recent years, caused unusually cold and rainy weather, a trend that solar researchers warn will worsen significantly in the coming decades. The sun has exhibited an unusually low activity since 2016, during Solar Cycle 24, which was the weakest in a century.

    Alternative for Germany held its conference during the last weekend of July in the thousand-year-old city of Magdeburg, located by the Elbe River in the eastern German state of Saxony. The first of the two conference days began with a strong program speech by the party's male spokesperson. Subsequently, party officials were elected and motions were addressed. The second day was entirely devoted to candidate selection and positioning for the EU election in June next year. Screenshot: AfD on Facebook

    Strong Confidence in German AfD

    Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.

    Maximilian Krah is one of the AfD politicians who is singled out as an ethnonationalist, as he has stated that there is a distinction between ethnic Germans and immigrants who have obtained German citizenship. Krah is a Member of the European Parliament and AfD's top candidate for the upcoming European Union election next year. Still image: AfD on Facebook

    The Establishment Wants to Ban Germany’s Second Largest Party – for the Sake of Democracy

    The rising popularity of AfD has raised strong concerns within the establishment. Despite lies and demonization in the media and isolation from the overall political establishment, the party continues to grow. Certain representatives of the party are accused of becoming increasingly "extreme," and in an unusual move, the influential weekly newspaper Der Spiegel demanded that AfD be "banned."

    FvD was quick to support the protests against covid restrictions. Today, the party also stands behind the farmers protests against the governments’ plans to close a big portion of the farms in the country for the sake of “climate”.
