#1 Not sure victim is the word I'd use when a criminal dies during a crime.

"So, Dr. Larry... the victims are now said to be Vietnamese ?"

"Err... yes, Bob. Actually, a Vietnamese body tends to look Chinese when it's frozen stiff. As they... thawed out, we were able to get a better idea. In fact if we keep them any longer they become Japanese !"

"But the Chinese are still investigating on their end ? Have you informed them ?"

"Well... no, Bob. Because the IG thought that would invite all sorts of racism allegations. Besides the exercise is good for them."

#4 If the US is responsible for the suffering of illegal migrants, how come the EU and Ireland aren't responsible for this?

Are the victims lower on the human trafficing totem pole because they aren't Moslems?
