A boat from Libya carrying more than 300 African would-be immigrants on Saturday landed on the Italian island of Lampedusa.




The UN refugee agency since an uprising against Colonel Gaddafi's four-decade rule began five weeks ago.




Some 15,000 people have arrived in Lampedusa since the Tunisian revolution in January.




The Italian government says it is unable to cope with the influx and wants the European Union to help.




Lampedusa is just 150 kilometres across the Mediterranean Sea from Tunisia.

  • send them home... all of them... all non-europeans in Europe need to leave.

  • i just learned that all the rioting in the middle east is over food prices. the corrupt governments are taking all the money instead of buying their people food. now that food prices are soaring world wide these people cant afford to buy food. the media wants to spin it into political unrest over bad leadership so they can move in and take over. Libya is a perfect example. guess who has driven food prices up so they can take advantage of the situation?

  • Bonjour, Ceci est un message pour les refugies fuyant. Il semble que l'espagne permit aux gens personnes fuyant les conflits en afrique du nord d'ent dans leur pays. Dites-leur d'aller a la cathedrale la plus proche quand ils arrivent dans l'espagne. Au revoir

  • At the Italian fascist government and the opposition, not affect the rights of their people to rule in his homeland as, instead, they do the French and the British and the other more intelligent people in the world, throw off those who want to enter their countries to invade. People are upset and does not know who to vote for more. Italian politicians are just clowns.

  • Look at the cowardly, sly bastards. If there was a revolution in England, I and just about everyone I know would be tooling up for it. Not these deserters.

    Their modus operandi is thus : Slime their way into some gullible White girl's affections. Impregnate the silly cow. Marry. Leave. Claim the 'Right To A Family Life'. Get citizenship. Use the Primary Purpose law to import his real bird(s). Get a council house. Have more kids. Colonise.

    Deliberately planned by our elites.

  • These people need to be sent back within 24 hours of arrival.... it's sad there's no work for them at home - but Europeans don't have work either.

    They should try china.

  • long live gaddafi

  • They could have factored in refugees before bombing.

  • Is that Gadaffi I can see 3 rd from the left 4 th row from the back

  • I like migrants, but Europe should do exactly opposite of what God says & turn away those in need.
