Eurabia

 

I smell something burning

Here are selected snippets from Geneva Revisited, by Christopher Orlet “ Behind multiculturalism was the conceit that various tribes, races, and sects embracing radically different or opposing values -- indeed encouraged to embrace different values -- might live together in peace and harmony. *snip*  IN HIS BOOK The West's Last Chance Tony Blankley paints a bleak picture of a future "Eurabia" where fundamental Islam has achieved considerable political influence. Classical statues and paintings are covered or destroyed. Islamic codes of conduct are strictly enforced. We see Europe returning to Calvin's Geneva of a half millennium ago, only orthodox Muslims, not Protestants, are in charge. Only it didn't quite work out that way. It seems tribes, races, and sects do hold grudges. Sometimes for a thousand years. And as for sharing different values, many Muslim immigrants and their Saudi and Egyptian spiritual advisors were not as big on multiculturalism as were the West's intellectuals and politicos. The former's secular European neighbors were not regarded as distinct cultural groups with equal cultural and political status, but godless infidels and Zionist apes and swine. When the geniuses behind multiculturalism finally bothered to venture into Europe's Islamic ghettos they were aghast at the intolerance, misogyny, honor killings, fatwas, female circumcision, forced marriages, allegiance to pan-Islam, and the constant calls for curbs on speech under the guise of banning defamation of religious sentiments. So if multiculturalism is passe and monoculturalism is ethnocentric, what then is to be done? The Anglo-Dutch writer Ian Buruma suggests it is pointless to try to assimilate Muslims. Most are simply not interested. Nor are they likely to trade their religion and customs for what they have been told are immoral Western values.  ” Whoop-de-doo.  What a revelation.  So what do we do Herr Buruma? “ Read Buruma and you will find a first-rate example of one of Europe's prominent intellectual's twisted reasoning in all its perplexity: "Many [Muslims] will not abandon their religion, so Europeans must learn to live with them and with Islam," writes Buruma, then, a few paragraphs later contradicts himself in his conclusion: "We must do everything to encourage Europe's Muslim to become assimilated in European societies. It is our only hope." In other words, our only hope is hopeless. ” I wanted to suggest a solution, and my first thought was to simply declare that Islam, like pedophilia, is a crime against humanity.  Then I remembered that NAMBLA has free reign in this country, so instead I started drinking early. Everyman for himself.
