UNHRC/UNICEF involved in caravan from Day 1; aim is to embarrass the President
Notes from a Judicial Watch video interview 11-21-18
Judicial Watch’s Chris Farrell and Ami Horowitz talked about their recent experiences on the caravan. (Horowitz went to Mexico, Chris to Guatemala.) The focus was mainly on Ami who just got back from Mexico.
Ami stressed throughout the interview how complicit the MSM is in pushing a pro-migration anti-border agenda and how this distorts their coverage of the caravans.
First, he said 90-95% of the caravan is male, it’s not women and children. Chris agreed.
Lots of fake news here, which he defined as pigeon-holing whatever is happening in to advance your agenda.
Chris said the caravan is not spontaneous – it’s highly organized to push a certain political agenda. He found hundreds of workers on the group; it must cost millions of dollars involving many groups, headed by Pueblo Sin Fronteras. He figures it costs at least #$800,000 dollars in water alone. Chris agreed.
He thinks the aim of the caravan is to degrade US security, sovereignty, and to manufacture a crisis in order to push a [no borders] agenda.
What surprised him the most was the high level of organization. People didn’t walk much, there were dozens of chartered buses and trucks. That’s how they got the caravan 1000 miles across Mexico. Was also surprised about the constant police escorts; Mexico doesn’t want them there, wants to move them along.
~7:15min. He also saw mobile hospitals, children’s services: “The UN is highly involved in getting them through. “It was an incredible, the degree of services involved.” What UN offices are most involved? “There’s a whole number of them.” The most prominent were the Office of the High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and UNICEF.'''
All these groups are training them how to speak to the press and also using Power Point presentations on what to say to US authorities on how to claim asylum. Ami commented repeatedly on the “disingenuous” nature of American reporting. Every person Ami asked said they came for economic reasons, not because they’re fleeing violence.
Chris said the men he asked did mention violence, but could not answer why had left their families behind.
Ami: “This is being pushed in a partnership…between the organizers of this caravan, Pueblo Sin Fronteras, and the media which is reporting on it.”
Chris replied that the Guatemalan officials wanted a criminal investigation because they felt the organizers were deliberately endangering people, because the people didn’t really understand the dangers and consequences. Both agreed the organizers are putting thousands of people at risk to accomplish an anti-US political agenda. Ami: “It’s shameful.” He went onto say that the Head of the High Commission of Refugees of the UN was proud she was involved. They had been involved from the caravan from the beginning , Day 1.
Chris: “That’s outrageous.”
Ami: I asked whether she was doing it to “poke Trump in the eye.” She laughed and said, “Yeah, sure!” and laughed.
Chris: “Stop the presses! That’s your headline.”
Ami: No, [among the Press] there was just “a thundering silence.”
From the perspective of the migrants, he said, the US should take them in. America should take in anyone who wants to come: “We need, you give!” They come from a Socialist society and so they have an “incredible amount of entitlement.” Reminded him of Caracas, where people said, “We want someone who will take care of us better.” They think the government should take care of their needs.
“Why is the MSM pushing this agenda?” The Left finds borders obnoxious, people like Ocasio-Cortez. But without borders, we could not have the US as we know it. Chris and Ami agreed this is a “reckless” position.
