"...While acknowledging that the boy’s death was a tragedy, he said: 'That boy and his family had lived in Turkey for three years. The money for that boy’s father to pay the people smugglers was sent from Canada.” He added, “The father sent them on that boat so the father could get dental treatment. They were in no fear, they were in no persecution and they were in no danger in Turkey.'”

I think we have a dead kid. Regardless of the cause, that is tragic enough.

Doesn't matter at this point, the propaganda has already served its purpose. I hear Germany is planning on taking 500K refugees a year indefinitely.

No kidding. Was someone saying otherwise?

Should we just bury our heads and cry continually because it is so sad?
Or maybe we should try to find the truth?

Is this another "What difference does it make now" type of attitude?

First the Aunt was blaming Canadian government now she's backed off that one because she was proven to be lying:

No asylum application from drowned Syrian boy’s father, say feds | Globalnews.ca

Others aren't buying any of this stuff.

The image of the dead boy is being used to sway public opinion to allow these fake refugees to enter their country. Once the refugees get entry they will wage terror on behalf of the globalists who are fundamentally transforming the world.

Right.

The image of the dead refugee boy.

Plastered all over the media to garner sympathy for the refugees and their plight.

Now it looks like this boy isn't really part of that story at all.

There are dentists in Turkey.

Family intended to immigrate to a country that provided more financial support to " refugees".
