“Smash fortress Europe – no one is illegal.” Two-year-old Alan (or Aylan) Kurdi and his brother Galib both died during an attempted crossing from Turkey to the Greek island of Kos. Alan’s body was pulled from the water and placed on the shore, where it was photographed lying face-down. The image stunned and shocked people around the world.
“If any of you put a stumbling block before one of these little ones, who believe in me, it would be better for you if a great millstone were fast[en]ed round your neck and you were drowned in the Depths of the Sea. RIP Aylan”
