#10  All the Italian Navy has to do is to pass closely at a good speed and let the bow wave do the work.

#9  Intercepting the migrant vessels at sea, boarding them and towing them back to Libya would be preferable to sinking the vessels, I suppose. But, if there was any resistance to Italian navy boarding parties, violence might be necessary for the boarding parties to defend themselves.

Ultimately, Italy might need to exit the EU like Britain did if euroweenies think they can impose the replacement of native Italians by Africans.

Viva Italia!

#6  Ultimately, either you are prepared to use lethal fore to stop an invasion, or your country will cease to exist. The era of "weak men create hard times" has fully arrived!

Please tell us DDM just what is she supposed to do?

seriously, can she order the navy to sink the migrants boats? Easy to say disappointing, After all she can't stop the tides can she? What will the rest of the eurines propose?

#4  Meloni is becoming more and more of a disappointment with each passing day, much like the GOP.

#3  It would seem that Italy is in a similar position as Texas. They're the closest to the problem and they take the brunt of it. Hat's off to Meloni, as ineffective as she may be, for at least recognizing what's at stake.

#2  Weren't these the ones who were going to deploy the navy to stop this? Nothing done. Italian deep state interference, or they were globalists all along?
