Bodies Washed Ashore As People Drown On Their Way To Europe. (DISTURBING PHOTOS) by FREEEMANAN(m): 7:45pm On Sep 02, 2015
[b]These heartbreaking pictures of the tiny body of a migrant boy who died alongside his brother and mother on the perilous journey across the Mediterranean today shocked the world.

Little Galip, five, and Aylan Kurdi, three, were on an overcrowded dinghy filled with refugees fleeing the war in Syria when it capsized shortly into the crossing to the Greek island of Kos.

Pictures of Aylan’s limp body in the sand and of it being carried by a local gendarme has come to epitomise the crisis engulfing Europe as a tide of humanity flees the horrors in the Middle East.

Another mother was pictured grief-stricken after losing two of her children, aged nine and 11.Aylan and Galip, who were not wearing lifejackets, did not stand a chance when the boat overturned in the dead of night, some 30 minutes after it set off from the holiday resort of Bodrum in Turkey.

All 16 passengers were flung into the Mediterranean, and despite the calm water, Galip and Aylan drowned.

Their lifeless bodies, still clad in tiny T-shirts and shorts, washed up on the beach in Bodrum today and boatmen alerted the authorities.

A heartbreaking photograph of a Turkish gendarme cradling one of the boys in his arms emerged shortly after the tragedy and video footage showed the body of the second.

Those in Europe are already demonstrating over the tearing of a holy book, while millions are flooding Europe. In 10 years we will see how this insanity pans out.
