Three More Articles on the of Demise of Europe
This, from an interesting Jewish perspective: Does Europe Have A Future?.
One from The American Conservative and of particular intererst to Anglicans: Unmaking England.
Lastly, from Ross Douthat at the über-liberal New York Times, which by permitting this piece to appear in that rag should make every mutli-culturalist think that the NYT believes the writing may indeed be on the wall. Germany On The Brink:
If you believe that an aging, secularized, heretofore-mostly-homogeneous society is likely to peacefully absorb a migration of that size and scale of cultural difference, then you have a bright future as a spokesman for the current German government.
You’re also a fool. Such a transformation promises increasing polarization among natives and new arrivals alike. It threatens not just a spike in terrorism but a rebirth of 1930s-style political violence. The still-imaginary France Michel Houellebecq conjured up in his novel “Submission,” in which nativists and Islamists brawl in the streets, would have a very good chance of being realized in the German future.
This need not happen. But prudence requires doing everything possible to prevent it. That means closing Germany’s borders to new arrivals for the time being. It means beginning an orderly deportation process for able-bodied young men. It means giving up the fond illusion that Germany’s past sins can be absolved with a reckless humanitarianism in the present.
It means that Angela Merkel must go — so that her country, and the continent it bestrides, can avoid paying too high a price for her high-minded folly.
"For the time being!?"
Well, the NYTwits do have a reputation to defend. But note as well that they speak darkly about the very real possibility of political violence, which I have written anout here. Brace yourselves. It's coming.
