Farewell Lesbos - we will be back on October 30th
Perhaps it is good that I did not know the extent of the misery, the violation of human rights, this cruel political activity in detail. When humanity mutates to "rejection", when the whole of Europe thinks it has to talk and argue for weeks about whether we should help or not?

Even people who have been deported by ...

Radicalisation of Afghan returnees
Thoughts from A. Jan to me on 18.6.2018 8 weeks after his deportation to Afghanistan from Austria Today I happened to listen to a Mullah interview about Europe. I loved listening to the interview at the beginning because the words of this mullah at the beginning were very beautiful He first described very well the people in Europe and called them "good people". He ...
