Tänk att det var en hjärtlös afghansk exmigrant som, assisterad av bl a bulgariska romer, chefade för människosmuggleriet där 71 migranter kvävdes ihjäl i en övergiven lastbil vid sidan av vägen någonstans i Österrike augusti 2015. Vem hade kunnat ana.
Det liberalglobalistiska etablissemangets husorgan - The New York Times - har så sakteliga börjat ändra perspektiv. Från att benhårt i varje läge propagera för massmigranters rätt och massmigrationens allmänna välsignelser börjar en försiktig rapportering om avigsidorna ta form. The 2015 story är inte längre bara en berättelse om desperata människors desperata kamp för överlevnad och hjältemodiga aktivisters osjälviska vilja att hjälpa nödställda människor. The 2015 story är också berättelsen om cyniskt utnyttjande av situationen för egen vinning. Den oförglömliga sommaren 2015:

Day after day, people died trying to reach refuge in Europe by land or sea, and in August came one of the most horrific cases: Police officers found the decomposing bodies of 71 migrants who had been locked in a truck and abandoned beside a highway in Austria. The grisly crime shocked people across the Continent and beyond, and influenced migration policy.
On Thursday, a Hungarian court convicted a group of smugglers for their roles in the trafficking and deaths. Four were found guilty of homicide and other charges, and were sentenced to 25 years in prison; 10 others were convicted on charges of smuggling and belonging to a criminal organization, and received sentences from three to 12 years.
Ja, nog påverkade händelsen migrationspolitiken alltid, den och bilden på lille Aylan Kurdi som drunknade för att hans pappa ville få sina tänder iordningjorda i Sverige.

As politicians debated what to do, before dawn on Aug. 26, a desperate group of 59 men, eight women and four children from Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq and Syria were herded into a refrigerated truck in southern Hungary. Smugglers had promised safe passage to Germany.
Three hours later, the migrants were all dead. They were found the next morning, in sweltering heat, on a highway leading to Vienna, just 31 miles or so from the Hofburg.
Days later, a visibly shaken Chancellor Angela Merkel announced that Germany would open its borders to those clamoring to get into the country — a policy decision that reverberates across the Continent to this day.
Sedan dess har Frau Merkels förhoppningsfulla "wir schaffen das" visat sig ha varit en grav felbedömning.

Beyond the politics, though, the case in Hungary offers a reminder of an unavoidable fact: Desperate people will take desperate measures, even if it can cost them their lives. The tragedy also highlighted how many people, including some former refugees, had taken advantage of the crisis to enrich themselves by turning humans into cargo.
The ringleader of the smuggling network on trial was Lahoo Samsooryamal, a slim, 31-year-old Afghan who speaks eight languages. Mr. Samsooryamal arrived in Hungary in 2013 and made his way to the top of an established network that transported groups of three or four people into Germany or Austria.
In 2014, some 200,000 people sought refuge in Europe from Africa and the Middle East. But in the first six months of 2015, more than 300,000 people flooded onto the Continent.
For smugglers, more refugees meant more business.
“The lure of money quickly pushed them to bigger groups that finally led to the tragedy,” said Gabor Schmidt, the prosecutor, during the trial.
With the help of Metodi Ivanov Georgiev, a Bulgarian who was already being sought by police in his own country, the smugglers established a network of drivers — poor Bulgarians, often from Roma villages.
Soon, they were operating on an “industrial scale,” Mr. Schmidt said, moving 1,200 people in 31 trips that began at the Hungary-Serbia border.
Mr. Samsooryamal’s ring was part of a broader international network, according to prosecutors. As migrants increasingly sought to travel from the western Balkans to European Union countries — with their open borders and economic promise — crime syndicates in each country worked in coordination.
For those seeking passage across Europe, smugglers were relatively easy to find, as migrants passed phone numbers between friends and families.
Resten är, kan man konstatera, historia. Denna sorts entreprenöriell verksamhet är vad vi fått tack vare öppna hjärtan och öppna gränser. Den skillnad som gjorts, och görs, åstadkoms av de tidigare så utskällda rättsvårdande institutionerna i östra delen av EU. Tack vare Ungerns osentimentala syn på massinvandringens komponenter kunde brottssyndikatet som orskade de nämnda 71 migranternas död avslöjas och nu alltså även dömas.

Mr. Samsooryamal’s group was unaware that the authorities had also gotten their numbers, and were listening to and taping their phone calls.
Those recordings, played in court, revealed that everyone involved knew how desperate the situation was for those in the truck in the hours before they died.
[...]
An hour and 20 minutes into the trip, the screaming continued, with the driver clearly able to make out one word, repeated over and over: “Please.”
Around this time, in a call between Mr. Samsooryamal and Mr. Georgiev, Mr. Samsooryamal finally lost his temper when told that the women would not stop wailing.
“If he opens, I know what will happen,” Mr. Samsooryamal said. “He should know for sure everybody will go out. He should know that if he doesn’t want to end in jail, he shouldn’t open.”
Panicked, the driver decided to just abandon the truck on the side of the road.
At the trial, Mr. Samsooryamal was unapologetic, insisting that the migrants chose to make the journey and knew the risks.

Så kan det gå. Jag har inte hittat någon svensk rapportering om detta. Frågan är väl så pass känslig att inte ens New York Times-alibi räcker till. Afghaner och romer på the bad guys sida och Orbans Ungern på the good guys, det blir error i hela proppskåpet antagligen.
