EURABIA
THIS ARTICLE by David Pryce-Jones is a great, informative read about the Islamicization of Europe. Let it serve as yet another warning:
As Yves Charles Zarka, a French philosopher and analyst, has written: “there is taking place in France a central phase of the more general and mutually conflicting encounter between the West and Islam, which only someone completely blind or of radical bad faith, or possibly of disconcerting naiveté, could fail to recognize.”
In the opinion of Bassam Tibi, an academic of Syrian origins who lives in Germany, Europeans are facing a stark alternative: “Either Islam gets Europeanized, or Europe gets Islamized.”
Going still farther, the eminent historian Bernard Lewis has speculated that the clash may well be over by the end of this century, at which time, if present demographic trends continue, Europe itself will be Muslim.
Just go read it.

Major problem over there, and they have become too passive to do anything. Except maybe the Dutch, if they will carry out what has begun with the assassination of van Gogh…the Dutch have recognized the danger of the Muslims not integrating into Dutch society, while openly putting out contracts on Dutch government officials and preaching terrorism.
Europe just doesn’t have a Charles Martel around. I think the comment about the end of the 21st century is a tad optimistic. 25 years is more like it.

Aaaah… let them have Europe. It’s gone from cradle of civilization to festering cesspool of ultratolerance. It will be their downfall. Then, once EU is an islamofascist state, we can just let the neutron bombs fly and start over. Or have I stepped over the line???
romanwanderer says:
Oriana Fallaci discusses Eurabia at length. I highly recommend her last two books.
And to the previous commenter who said ‘let them have Europe’- have you ever been to Europe? Would you like the Colosseum and the Eiffel Tower to be taken down in favor of Mosques?
Do you have any idea what people are going through right now? Google the following: Jews stabbed in Belgium, France, cemeteries desecrated, synagogues burnt.
Beth says:
RW: I actually do have one of Fallaci’s books–great stuff.
Re: “let them have Europe”–knowing Preston as I do, I’m quite certain his comment was not meant to be taken literally, but just an expression of the sentiment of disgust at Europe’s complicity…even though Preston IS a dirtbag. (just kidding, of course!) I’m SURE he doesn’t want to see the Islamofascists gain one inch of ground anywhere…even in Al-France. ;-)
(Truthfully, it wouldn’t surprise me to see the French replace Versailles or the Eiffel Tower with a mosque themselves, but I digress…)

Lots to say- but for now, I want to reflect on the piece.
Hopefully, I won’t take to much time.
Time is a luxury we just don’t have.
