[Jpost] Guatemalan President Alejandro Giammattei said on Friday that a large number of the migrants colonists on a deportation flight from the United States to Guatemala earlier this week were infected with the novel coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it.

Sadly, that’s one of many risks encountered while wandering north on the illegal migrant trail. But it’s not unique to those heading to the U.S. — the same risks are encountered on the way to the EU. Perhaps it would be better to stay home and apply for a visa at the embassy.
[DW] Under a draft law, immigrants colonists living in Germany under a false name would later find it extremely difficult to become citizens. The government's changes could also hamper children's chances of citizenship.
In an apparent bid to deter asylum-seekers from providing false information about their identities, the German government plans on making it harder for foreign nationals to attain citizenship, Die Welt newspaper reported on Friday.
A draft law drawn up by the Interior Ministry targets immigrants colonists who have been living in Germany under a false name or provided authorities with incorrect information about their country of origin when they arrived.
Currently, foreigners are generally eligible for German citizenship if they've lived in the country for eight years or more.
Under the new law, the years that an immigrant lived under a false identity would no longer count towards the total years required to attain citizenship.
CHANGES FOR RESIDENCE PERMITS
The draft law would also create a second significant hurdle to citizenship by changing the rules on residence permits.
Under the new measures, immigrants colonists found living under a false identity would be denied an unlimited or permanent residence permit. The law would make "the clarification of identity and nationality" a prerequisite for attaining permanent resident status.
Immigrants colonists could still attain a time-limited residency permit, but the permanent resident status is required for German citizenship.
WITHHOLDING CITIZENSHIP FROM CHILDREN
The German government's plans also have a direct impact on children of foreign nationals — even if they were born in Germany.
Until now, babies born in Germany to two non-German parents can typically become citizens if one of their parents has been living in the country for eight years.
Under the new rules, children would only be granted German citizenship if their parents prove their identity and nationality.
The Interior Ministry's draft law is currently being reviewed by the other ministries and must gain their approval before moving on to parliament.
[DW] Doctors Without Borders has ended a cooperation saving migrants colonists stranded at sea after its partner, SOS Mediterranee suspended rescue missions due to the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... . The NGO has accused the EU of using the outbreak to keep migrants colonists away.
The two aid groups have cooperated rescuing migrants colonists stranded in the Mediterranean Sea since 2016. They claim to have rescued over 30,000 people. The rescue vessel Ocean Viking will remain docked in Marseille for the time being.
HARSH WORDS FOR THE EU
MSF also accused the European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... of taking advantage of the coronavirus outbreak to keep rescued migrants colonists from coming ashore.
Due to the pandemic, Italia and Malta have chosen to close all of their harbors. The measures include refusing entry to ships rescuing migrants colonists.
"Italia and Malta's decisions to close their harbors and Germany's request that NGOs halt their sea rescue operations are discriminatory and unreasonable," Loof said.

You know, it would be easy for the US and Britain to announce that the post Ottoman and 1948 borders were all rescinded and step back to watch the fun.

[THEBAGHDADPOST] Almost five billion dollars of the Islamic Theocratic Republic’s money is missing, says the Director of the Supreme Audit Court of Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... (SAC), Adel Azar.
Based on the official rate of 42,000 rials for one dollar, the Islamic Theocratic Republic government distributes billions of cheap dollars among local importers to buy essential goods from overseas. Many of these importers are politically well-connected individuals.
Nevertheless, according to the SAC director, Adel Azar, $4.8 billion has been distributed, but no goods and products have been imported. The cheap dollars provided by the government for imports is in effect a subsidy.
However, a lie repeated often enough remains a lie... Azar stopped short of naming the companies that received the missing dollars and did not mention what products were supposed to be imported with the money.
Speaking to a public session of Majles (Iranian parliament) on Tuesday, April 14, Azar disclosed that the government had distributed a total of $31 billion, on the official rate, to import essential goods to the country.

Funny, 5$ billion is exactly that Feinstein wants to give them.
[IsraelTimes] Channel 12 reports that the tragic situation in Iran where nearly 5,000 have died from the coronavirus is due in no small part to the irresponsible conduct of its supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. According to the network, Khamenei believes that virus was created by jinn, which are supernatural demon-like creatures in Islamic mythology. His fear of the jinn has led him to reject humanitarian aid from the international community, and accuse the US and Israel of cooperating with the demons.
“The drugs you offer may be a means of spreading the disease even more,” he has been quoted as saying, according to Channel 12, which does not cite any sources.

[ARABNEWS] The commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has been promoting what appears to be a notorious fake bomb-detecting device as a coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... detector.
Maj. Gen. Hossein Salami, who replaced Qassem Soleimani as head of Iran’s asymmetric warfare unit after his liquidation by a US drone in Iraq in January, presented the device on state TV on Wednesday, claiming that it could detect COVID-19 "within seconds."
The model shown is almost identical in appearance to the famously useless plastic and metal fake bomb-detecting device that was first sold by convicted British fraudster James McCormick to Iraqi security forces.
But despite years of useless service in bomb detection, Salami said the device was a "technological and scientific" innovation that was developed by Iran’s Basij militia.
"The antenna of this device can detect any spot infected with the virus within a 100-meter radius," Salami added. "It detects the virus within five seconds."
He said the device is superior to other COVID-19 tests because "there’s no need for taking blood. You can accomplish this from a distance."
Salami also claimed that the device had been tested at hospitals with an "80 percent" success rate.
Many independent researchers and news outlets have suggested that the government is covering up the true extent of the pandemic’s spread throughout the country.
