Poland’s opposition hopes huge rally in Warsaw will swing election

Eastern European countries such as Poland are providing a great example to Western countries grappling with the migration crisis stemming from Africa and the Middle East. Citizens across Europe and other Western countries are fed up with the endless stream of illegal migration and the moral lecturing from their leaders. Poland doesn't deal with terrorism and gang violence and has seen a booming economy over the last few decades. Poland is one of the few European countries that has the backbone to handle migration appropriately.
Authoritarian demagogues in Poland and other European countries are running campaigns based on fear and discrimination in order to win elections. While some politicians try to disguise their bigotry by claiming anti-immigration policies are a matter of national security, far-right parties are running on a platform of xenophobia. Europe should focus on helping migrants instead of demonizing them.
