Dear Mr. Turkman

They didn't drown because they were Moslims. It's a pity that human beings drowned, because they wanted to flee from the catastrophy. I'll prefer a caption: 16.000 humane died. We feel for them and their family.

Best wishes

Emne: [chottala.com] 16,000 Moslims drowned, trying to reach Europe since 1988

16,000 Moslims drowned, trying to reach Europe since 1988 but millions of others have succeeded. Presently, hundreds of thousands of Foreign Workers from poor countries, who have lost their jobs and are being harassed by Libyan Rebels are also trying to flee to Europe from Libya instead of trying to go back to their countries.

IMMIGRATION: 800 DEAD IN CHANNEL OF SICILY SINCE JANUARY
13 April , 20:06

(ANSAmed) - ROME, APRIL 13 - More than 28,000 migrants reached Italy in less than three months, but many (approximately 800, but there are no official figures, so the number may even be greater) have been swallowed by the Channel of Sicily.

Hundreds of boats departed mostly from Tunisia, but also from Libya, and some sank with their human cargo.

Some 14 shipwrecks have been reported to date, the latest one today: two women drowned in Pantelleria during a landing.

Since 1988, according to figures gathered by Fortress Europe, almost 16,000 men, women and children died trying to reach Europe by boat. For more than 4,000 of them (4,249) the Channel of Sicily became their grave, while another 186 died sailing from Algeria to Sardinia. More than half of these dead bodies have never been recovered: official statistics mentioned 3,110 missing people.
