American, Thomas Sowell, wrote a series of connected essays entitled "Black Rednecks and White Liberals." Therein he describes many sources of the bad ideas embraced and promoted by today's western Leftists. The comments in this link are bracing:

The British SAS refused and threatened a general mutiny because they had made many friendships in Rhodesian SAS when both units were conducting operations in Malaysia. Wilson backed down.

I misread the sentence. About 75K have formally expressed an interest. Of those, about 10K have initiated the refugee application process. My mistake.
In Revelations it writes of famines. It doesn't say make them.
