Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

FREEDOM BEHIND BARS ?



There was no TV , when Allied Army invaded the shores of Normandy on early morning of 6th June 1944

People of the World learned about it 24 hours later thru newspapers

But , in the afternoon of 16 Sept 2015 , the entire World was watching on TV  


INVASION  OF   EUROPE ,


by hundreds of migrants trying to cross the Serbia - Hungary border

Of course , closed gates / 4 meter high barbed wire fence / water cannons and tear gas shells , held back those few hundred refugees

But , for how long , when those few hundred become few thousands  ?

Hungary's response :

Passed a law treating illegal migration as a criminal offence

I presume , Hungary will prosecute those thousands of Syrian / Libyan / Iraqi refugees and imprison them on its own soil

A step that would be welcomed by those refugees , even though they have no intention to seek asylum in Hungary !

Getting imprisoned in Hungary will ensure that

>  they have a roof on their heads

>  they will not die of cold in coming harsh European winter

>  their children / infants will not starve

>  they will not get killed by wars ravaging their own countries


I expect them to sing :

" Stone walls do not a prison make , nor iron bars a cage "


I hope rest of Europe realizes that no fence can stop millions of migrants marching from its eastern borders and over the Mediterranean sea

They are trying to escape from war / hunger, to peace / food  !

But then, this problem will not remain an European Problem alone, for long !

It is bound to get replicated all over the World !

World over, poor people will try to migrate to " Islands of Prosperity " - whether just across the borders or across oceans

In my 08 June blog, I had suggested turning Antarctica into a ,

UNITED  STATES  OF  MIGRANTS ( USM )

But on a serious note :

Russia / Canada / Australia / China / Mongolia / Scandinavian Countries are , relatively prosperous countries

They also happen to have millions of square km of uninhabited - but entirely habitable , land masses

Between them , they should be able to accommodate ,

100 million migrants ,

- and still have population density far below the world average !

It is still not too late for such a constructive - and humanitarian solution !
