[edit] procedures

how are immigration procedures executed usually? i have heard cases where people are asked to leave voluntarily? is that true or do they just go straight to the deportation procedure? also, before the person is actually deported, is a special stamp put on the persons passport to indicate he had been deported so that if he tried to re-enter, it would be known straight away?

[edit] Terrible article

Why does this article ignore the inventor of the deportation, the Assyrians, who deported some half a million people in their ancient history? Tourskin 18:41, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Why does it not mentions deportations in Nazi Germany? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.51.105.127 (talk) 19:29, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deporting a stateless person?

If a person goes to a country illegally, then renounces their citizenship, where can they be deported to? Do they get put in some sort of immigration prison? --92.104.122.167 (talk) 18:41, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

  • There are many cases were stateless persons have been deported. It does not need to involve renunciation of citizenship, either. For example, a country can kill the immigrants. (Refugees from Darfur have cross the border into other nations, and have been victims of gang, paramilitary and military murder, for example.) Some countries intercept the stateless individuals, and prevent their entry. (For example, ships of Jewish refugees from Nazi Germany were routinely denied entry by many nations.) Some states accept the stateless as refugees, but for political reasons may drive them out of the country. (For example, Palestinian refugees are often considered stateless. Nations such as Lebanon, Jordan and Syria have deported thousands of Palestinians to surrounding Arab nations at various times, often out of fear that radical Palestinian elements might destabilize the host country political regime.) Personal renunciation of citizenship may not matter to the host country, either. (For example, many Hispanic immigrants to the U.S. renounce their home country citizenship when they illegally enter the U.S., but the U.S. government simply ships them back home.) Imprisonment can be one option. Literally pushing the people across the border is another. Murder is another. Terror is another ("encourage" them to flee through terror). Denial of entry is another. Forced labor is not unheard of. The imagination, law, policies and morals of the host nation provide an infinite number of variations. - Tim1965 (talk) 22:29, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
