Going straight to Goodwin’s Law, this really does remind me of behavior from soldiers during WWII. I don’t know how anyone can do this to other human beings.
You’re assuming they view the asylum seekers as human, which is a pretty big assumption to make.

How Christian of them.
Very Christian behavior
Religion of peace.
Peace from caring about others.
