This is what happens in just about every first-world country in the world. The article may be of assistance: http://www.noborder.org/without/belgium.html
shareThis is bunch o BS. Belgium is swamped by immigrants.
I was riding the subway in Brusseles the other day well after 11:00 pm and I was the only one caucasian guy. And there were no women there. All of them are either indians, pakis, blacks. Russians are not much of a threat to any country, but the hordes of blacks from NAfrica are a real menace.
In Bulgaria, also in the EU, there are hardly any illegals, but there are hardly any social benefits, so it is obvious why they choose to emigrate and what draws them in, actually the mighty €.

The film is one big lie, and I do live in Belgium (the Western part of Flanders, to be more specific).
There is still a clique in this country that wants to keep spreading the message that all illegal immigrants are just poor people who are being persecuted in their own country.
The truth is that most of them simply come here because our social security system is way too generous.
People can get unemployment benefits having worked 1 or 2 days, and these are perpetous...
Especially in Wallonia, where the socialists govern, these naïve stories are being told and retold.
Meanwhile this country is going down the drain...

As a Belgian I can tell that unfortunately; yes this is reality in Belgium. About the excessive violence used during deportations I can't judge or say that this is still going on, but truth is that they are still "expulsions", which are usually not easy breazy with a light hand. The true horror is that people who have been living in my country for years (and I'm talking about decades most of them) and who have completely adapted, have children going to school, have jobs (even when they're 'in black') are being forced out of this country to go back to a country most of them don't even know anymore. Most of the younger people arrived in Belgium when they were too young to realize and are in their twenties now and feel 100% Belgian, have built a life here, have gone successfully to school, but are being sent back to a country they can't even remember having been their.
A lot of ignorant Belgians support these deportations because they believe the 'illegals' are stealing their jobs (even though they are doing jobs other belgians wouldn't be doing because they feel it's beneath them) or because they only want to be regularised to take advantage of our good social security and welfare. What they are forgetting is how these people are currently exploited by landlords who know they can turn them in to the police so they ask a ridiculously high rent for *beep* and bosses who can pay they far below minimum wage because they know they have no rights.
no human is illegal, nor should they be treated like one.
the fact that these people who rather die than go back to their country without hope are treated like criminals and locked up like rats in these detention centers is an abomination to the "great European Thought" and all human rights.
here are some testimonies from people from inside the centers http://www.gettingthevoiceout.org/category/testimonies/?lang=en_uk
This movie was based on the true story of Semru Adamu, a 20 year old Nigerian woman who was smothered to death during forced expulsion. So yes,notifies like this are true.
