DESCRIPTION:Presentation and fundraiser for Hal Far Outreach (HFO), an NGO that is 
 aiding refugees who have crossed the Mediterranean and ended up in the Hal 
 far open center refugee camp.  Most are fleeing from Libya. \nFree - 
 donations accepted to benefit 
 HFO\nhttps://www.facebook.com/halfaroutreach/\nwww.halfaroutreach.com\n\nThe 
 speaker has been to Malta 3 times since August, on 2 seized search and 
 rescue boats, and helped form HFO in a refugee camp in Malta. "Most of 
 these people are fleeing from Libya, which is a country that has been sent 
 into chaos after we bombed them; now is being run completely by gangs, 
 mafia, cartel etc. those of which make their profits on the rape, torture 
 and extortion of African people, and people from other countries who were 
 unlucky enough to end up there.\n\n"The EU is funding the Libyan coastguard 
 (cartels with warships) and has grounded all of the search and rescue boats 
 that would try to help the people in sinking boats fleeing the war zone. 
 They would rather see the people die in the water than let them flee to 
 safety in Europe. 2500 people died in the water last year 30% which are 
 children. 2/3 of the migrant deaths in the world right now."\n
