View from Convento de Cristo once a Templar stronghold

FAKE NEWS!  Or maybe partial news.  Though I agree with almost nothing, (99.99 %), that Trump says, there is SOME truth to the fact that the media picks and chooses what they want to tell.  The news from Europe is that Italy turned away a ship of refugees from Africa.  Huge accusations of fascism, good Spaniards, bad Italians!  What the news failed to mention is that Italy only refused a shipload of refugees picked up by international NGOs.  Refugees picked up by Italian ships are still being accepted and in fact, the day after said "refused" ship of 600 and some, a ship holding 900 some refugees landed on our shores.  They also failed to mention that in these past few years of enormous immigration from Africa, Italy has only been surpassed by Germany in taking in refugees.  Both of these countries are light years ahead of other European nations.  The numbers look sort of like this:

Germany is way ahead with about 800,000
Italy about 300,000
France 200,000
Greece 120,000

All other countries are WAY down the list.  Including Spain with maybe 50,000.

And no children are taken from their parents by the way....  xxoo me
