During the end of April and the beginning of June, the Comité des Sans-Papiers 59 (CSP59 : "Undocumented Immigrants Committee of Nord" (french department number 59)) organized a campaign to make visible their fight for regularization. They occupied several key-sites (Law faculty, House of business rulers, etc.), being systematically and violently evicted by the police.
Summary of the events, visual and audio documents
On June 16, during their last occupation the police arrested 60 undocumented immigrants and put them in retention camp.
On this day they decided to go on hunger-strike to demand a collective regularization. Since then, the police have been constantly harassing them: arresting them in the hospitals (13/7), massive eviction and arrest at the Union house (1/8), bullying in the police stations and in the retention camp, refusals of the right to be admitted to hospitals, deportation to several neighboring cities and several others far away in France (Toulouse, Bordeaux, Rennes, Calais, Paris).
Last week, the police violently deported seven of them to Conakry via Morocco. And 22/8 in the morning, the police arrested 42 refugees which were not in hospitals. They were put in the retention camp near Lille and Paris.

The CFR is Working Hard

Be patient, friends. The Council on Foreign Relations is working hard with other like-minded groups to create a world without borders. Soon there will be no states, and everyone will have the right to live wherever they want -- so long as they have the proper paper work, and the Corporations that run the planet need a worker-slave where they want to move to.
A brave new world where consumers no longer have to worry their empty little heads about things like patriotism, cultural diversity, freedom, or democracy. We'll all be one world. One homogonized culture. One global state run not by elected representitives, but by the elite.
Let people stay in the countries they've illegally snuck in to. In the end it isn't going to make a difference one way or another. The West is committing suicide. We've decided we hate ourselves, and are ashamed of the culture and nations we've created. We're weak and listless. It's the perfect time for the elite to move in and take total control. Move in masses of foreigners to be good little slave workers. Create divided populations in every nation that can be exploited and turned against one another. It's genius.
Illegal immigration is a tool of the elite. It's time we embraced it. Stop with the liberal diatribes about the supposed right of people to live anyplace they want. It's not necessary to spout the cockeyed rationalizations and excuses anymore. The elite WANT illegals! Bring 'em on!
