  10 January 2020, by siawi3

  Recent rulings in the United States and Italian courts have favored the humanitarian aid and rescue organizations, but efforts to criminalize such work continue. The two verdicts in favor of Sea-Watch and No More Deaths, as well as the release of the Sea-Watch 3, confirm not only the lack of a legal basis for the criminalization of humanitarian aid, but also the political motivation behind it.

• The West Helped Create the Conditions That Force Iraqis, Iranians and Syrians to Cross the Channel

  Military and economic warfare now go together so it no longer makes sense to distinguish between economic migrants and political refugees fleeing military action. Both are refugees driven from their homes by different types of warfare. Yet there is little appreciation in the West that if you wreck the economy of a country, many of its inhabitants may end up on your doorstep or die trying to reach it.

Hailed as brave allies against Isis until it was finally defeated in 2019, the Kurds were abandoned to the mercy of their many enemies. A UN report this week estimated that 377,000 Yemenis will have died in Yemen’s forgotten Saudi-orchestrated and Western-backed war by the end of 2021, some 150,000 in the fighting and the rest from hunger caused by the conflict.
