Italy is fuming of fury after they caught a migrant taxi ship used by NGOs like Doctors Without Borders and SOS Mediterranee dumping at least 24 TONS of dangerous TOXIC WASTE in Italy, polluting several Sicily ports with biohazardous materials.
The Italian government has ordered the seizure of the NGO vessel Aquarius amid an investigation into potential illegal dumping of hazardous waste.
The ship is used by non-governmental organizations, primarily Doctors Without Borders and SOS Mediterranee, to ‘rescue’ migrants attempting to cross the Mediterranean Sea from Africa to Europe, and bring them the rest of the way.
Aquarius is currently docked in Marseille, France, where Italian authorities have instructed it should be held.
“The case regards the alleged dumping of dangerous and potentially infectious refuse, including medical materials, without the waste being separated, as if it were ordinary household waste,” ANSA reports. “Prosecutors suspect that 24,000 kilos of waste were dumped in this way on 44 different occasions.”
“In total, 14 people are under investigation in the probe conducted by state and finance police and coordinated by Catania prosecutors, sources said. The authorities also requested the seizure of 460,000 euros.”
Prosecutors say medical workers have documented cases of scabies, meningitis, tuberculosis, AIDS and syphilis in migrants arriving in Italy from Africa, but “the presence of hazardous medical waste has never been declared” in connection with the dumping incidents, which allegedly took place in at least 11 Italian ports.
Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini, who has spearheaded efforts to constrict the operations of NGOs known for aiding thousands of migrants in gaining access to Italy and Europe, hailed the decision.
“Seized the ship Aquarius,” Salvini tweeted. “I did well to block the ships of NGOs, I stopped not only the trafficking of illegal immigrants but, from what emerges, also that of toxic waste.”
Sequestrata la nave #Aquarius.
Ho fatto bene a bloccare le navi delle ONG, ho fermato non solo il traffico di immigrati clandestini ma, da quanto emerge, anche quello di rifiuti tossici.#portichiusi pic.twitter.com/79GPrejO4h— Matteo Salvini (@matteosalvinimi) November 20, 2018
Italian journalist Alessandra Bocchi, who has covered the migrant crisis in the Mediterranean at length, also offered praise for her government’s decision.
“The Aquarius case shows those who were denouncing the illegal trafficking of NGOs were correct, and those who saw them as innocent humanitarians were being naive,” Bocchi told Infowars Europe. “NGOs weren’t just trafficking human beings, but toxic waste, too.”

The NGOs are a farce. Do they care about helping the people they have already dumped on Italy, Greece, Spain? They dump bodies like a serial killer, then head back out to high seas to get another boatload of some of the most wretched on earth, much like the slave ships of yore. Given their behavior, they must be trying to destroy Western culture with overwhelming numbers.
The NGO boats should be seized and auctioned to help pay the billions in future costs these human traffickers have incurred. No, since Soros would just buy them back, they must be scuttled.
