Prime Minister Orban has been a rare voice of sanity in the mass delusion now afflicting European elites. In July, he remarked that “Europe is at stake… The question now is not only what kind of Europe we Hungarians would like to live in. Rather, will all that we now call Europe exist at all?” Hungary moved to shut its borders from the tsunami of unfriendly foreigners by building a fence in September, which resulted in rioting by the “refugees.” Mr. Orban appeared this week in a meeting in Spain. The clip of his remarks below has a screw-up in the middle, but he ends up with a sensible observation that you can hear: “Europe is not able to accept everyone who wants a better life.” We see the open-borders fantasy of liberals being played out now in Europe. The immediate result is chaos, and much worse pain is sure to follow. ‘We are in deep trouble’, Politico, October 22, 2015 Orbán stares down Merkel on migration, calls Europe ‘rich and weak.’ MADRID — Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán faced down German Chancellor Angela Merkel ahead of a key migration conference this weekend, using his most explosive arguments yet to rally his center-right political allies behind a tougher response to Europe’s refugee crisis. “We are in deep trouble,” Orbán said in remarks to the European People’s Party annual congress here, building on comments he had made Wednesday night on Hungarian television. “This is an uncontrolled and unregulated process,” one that threatens democracy because governments did not “get authorization from (citizens) for millions to walk into our continent.” To loud applause from conservative politicians from across Europe, Orbán slammed politicians on both the left and right. He accused left-wing political parties of “importing future leftist voters to Europe” while trying to “hide it behind humanism.” Orbán has played an outsized role in setting Europe’s migration policy agenda in recent months, pulling the continent to the right with his decisions to build border fences, deploy armed forces and order the strip searching of migrants. His approach has divided the European People’s Party, as it struggles to contain the differences emerging between governments that stretch from Germany to Hungary. Orbán suggested Merkel and other politicians were creating chaos by not upholding EU laws and encouraging refugees to push beyond the first safe country they reach. “Free choice of host country is not included in international law,” he said. In a separate speech to the EPP members, Merkel hit back at Orban, saying Germany’s generosity does not preclude border security. “We insist on the territorial intergraity of all countries in Europe. That is the basis of peaceful coexistence and we cannot make any compromises on that,” Merkel said. Orbán argued the current refugee flow is no longer an emergency, but an “unlimited supply of people” on the move towards Europe that includes millions from Africa and “foreign fighters,” and European life was not open to them. “The German, Hungarian or Austrian way of life is not a basic right of all people on earth,” Orbán said. “It is only a right for those people who have contributed to it. We have to help them get back their own lives, with dignity, and we have to send them back to their own countries.” While insisting these were not anti-Muslim views (“the Muslim faith is not responsible for this mass migration”) Orbán said: “We have heartfelt compassion for the people who left their homes. They are victims … but considering them victims does not mean we must make ourselves victims.” Orbán accused Europe of showing a weak hand in current negotiations with Turkey and in dealing with the fall-out of conflict in Syria. “Europe is currently rich and weak,” Orbán said. “This is a dangerous mix.” “If based on the lack of our own power we expect the solution from Turkey, we are exposed,” he said. “This is the current situation of Europe. To avoid that we have to protect our borders. If we can’t do it in Greece … we have to do it at the western gate of the Balkans: Hungary.” Merkel rejected Orbán’s arguments on Turkey. “(Turkey) tell us you are a rich European union and we have been hosting 2.5 million people for years. For a rich European Union this is the right thing to do. We cannot simply leave these people to our neighbors.” Speaking between Orbán and Merkel, European Council President Donald Tusk echoed some of the Hungarian prime minister’s arguments, but sought to soften the tone. “Solidarity can no longer be equivalent to naivety,” Tusk said. “We cannot abdicate from our most important duties… the primary duty of public authorities has always been to provide security to its own community and protect its own borders.” “We cannot pretend any longer that the great tide of migrants is something that we want and that we are conducting a well-thought out policy,” Tusk added. “We have lost our ability to control our borders … but on the other hand we cannot give into populism and xenophobia.”

What we need here is a Putin/Orban candidacy.
What we need is another Charles Martel
Si vis pacem, para bellum Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who don't Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God.
That wouldn't be a bad idea, except that Charles Martel is dead but both Putin and Orban are alive!
LOL, yeah, if you noticed, I said another , meaning a modern incarnation / version of him. That mess is coming here soon enough. Unfortuntely, our kids will have to deal with it, and frankly Robert, I do not think they can. Damn,the whole world has gone crazy.

I don't think successive generations will have either the wit or the inclination. Bith of these have been conditioned out them then replaced with conformity to propaganda. We've lost the war of necessary psychological and moral direction in future grnerations. Many people who come here show no evidence of progression beyond impressionable childhood. We're done for.

The point here is that whilst the "refugees" need help they do not have the right to march in and through nations. This crisis has a sting in the tail for Europe and it will not be long before they feel it. It is apparent that these people do not respect laws and borders. When they are destitute in a place that doesn't want them and can't support them, they will turn to crime and they have an expectation because Germany opened the door, so when the expectations meet reality there will be anger when they find themselves in the middle of a northern winter without adequate shelter and no means of earning a living or improving their circumstance.
