Was It The Illegal Migrants Who Caused The Fire Under Socerb? There Are Many Of Them In Slovenia Now

Tuesday’s fire under Socerb, which was already under control at a certain point, spread again shortly after midday. Little information could be found on the cause of the fire, but in one of Tuesday’s reports, around midday, the national media outlet, Radio-Television Slovenia, pointed the finger at the real culprit – the illegal migrants, whom there were a lot of in that region in recent days. But the reporter obviously said too much by sharing this information because the illegal migrants were no longer mentioned in any of the subsequent reports on this topic.

The government of Robert Golob is turning a blind eye to the truth. And not only that – it is also hiding the seriousness of the migrant situation from its citizens by simply pretending that the problem in question does not actually exist. What is more, by removing the wire fence that stood on the southern border of our country, they have given the migrants the signal that Slovenia will no longer protect its national territory in accordance with the law. The Ministry of the Interior even went one step further by mixing illegal migration with legal migration, saying that illegal migrations are a constant in every society and that fences cannot stop it. Just how wrong they are is very apparent from the figures on the number of illegal migrants who have been caught, most of them in the coastal region of Primorska, where the fire under Socerb is still raging.

“In the 1 p.m. news show, Radio-Television Slovenia reported that migrants were to blame for the fire under Socerb. Later, there was no mention of this anymore. Political correctness and left-wing censorship have clearly done their job,” the former State Secretary at the Ministry of the Interior, Božo Predalič, wrote on Twitter, commenting on RTV Slovenia’s live report from the field about the fire under Socerb. In the report, the reporter said, among other things, that the locals believe that “migrants are to blame for the fire, as there were a lot of them in this region these days.” Later, there was no other mention of this on RTV Slovenia.

But despite the later retraction of the actual cause of the fire, many people who watched the RTV Slovenia report managed to catch this piece of information and shared the screenshots or photos and their thoughts about it on Twitter. It should be pointed out that the complicity and censorship of the migrant situation are more than obvious when RTV Slovenia continues to use the term “migrants” and deliberately omits the term “illegal,” which is very typical of leftist linguistics, as already written by the former Minister of the Interior, Dr Vinko Gorenak, who explained in one of his posts the difference between one and the other, and made it clear that the leftists and the left-wing media do this deliberately, in order to cover up the truth.

Police reports do not lie
Despite the deliberate concealment of the facts and the misleading reporting on the migrant crisis, the data from police administrations, which send daily reports on how many migrants they managed to catch while illegally crossing the national border, are very telling. For example, the Koper Police Directorate sent us the report that from Monday to Tuesday, while carrying out tasks to protect the state border, they tracked down and arrested 58 migrants, just one day after the Ministry of the Interior declared migration to be a common phenomenon in society. And during the past weekend, the Koper Police Directorate had to deal with as many as 127 illegal crossings of the state border.

Regarding the reporting on illegal migrants who were supposedly responsible for the fire under Socerb, we also contacted RTV Slovenia and asked for clarification whether it is true that this was initially reported, but later on, it was not part of the reports anymore, and if so, why did they decide to omit this information later on. We have not received a response yet.
