This is true. The evidence of this is seen in the loud protest against the war, the priority given to civil rights versus the right to live and not be blown into a million pieces. And I am afraid to say, a lot of people still regard 9/11 as an isolated incident.<BR/><BR/>Unlike Israel we aren't faced with rockets everyday, and unlike the Europeans or even Autralians we aren't surrounded by menacing Muslims starting riots.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-65927867503672843802007-10-30T21:17:00.000-04:002007-10-30T21:17:00.000-04:00Heard about the Laredo scenario?

I found it by accident as I clicked on a link to Americatalkback.com on Newsmax.com. The top story was the kidnapping and killing of Americans on the border to Mexico in Laredo, TX. The politicians are not willing to hear the pleas of the local sheriff and if it wouldn't have been for Glen Beck this morning I wouldn't even heard of it at all. Habla EspanoL? Try Sharia Law. It can't happen in America? Maybe. But I saw it on many corners in German cities where I stayed for four weeks just recently. It gives me a chilling effect knowing the inevitable future that my country will be heading to and maybe America after all with the help of the left.

Even if you take the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812, both were over American independence from the British. Not the same thing as men coming over here to blow up buildings and the Pentagon and who knows what else. <BR/><BR/>And also there is a HUGE difference between Catholicism and Islam. First of all, while the Hispanic populations might be majority Catholic, they are far from the Catholics in history as well as the Vatican today. There is a huge mixture of Catholicism and the other gods of their past. They do not seek world domination with all people under the flag of Catholicism. The worst fear would be conversion. The number of Muslims in the Hispanic world is growing fast, I believe it can be compared to the growing Muslim population in China.<BR/><BR/>But Sultan I do agree with you. I don't see a solution working besides deportation, but just like in Israel, it's a word you hear, but it is yet to be done. And through all of the waiting for a "viable and good" soultion for all sides, the numbers grow. <BR/><BR/>My only point would be that if the American people are that unaware of the problem we will all face if Europe becomes a majority Muslim, then we are in more trouble than I thought we already were.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-31290323340060945442007-10-30T16:48:00.000-04:002007-10-30T16:48:00.000-04:00Europe is being conquered by Muslims, and America ...Europe is being conquered by Muslims, and America is being conquered by Mexico.

What makes it even worse is that we taxpayers are being forced to pay out welfare and give up our jobs to our conquerers.

The closest as you mentioned is the reconquista. Now imagine that with people who are your enemy and want to grind you into the dust happening on a nationwide scale.<BR/><BR/>In the end the problem comes down to cheap labor. Industrial countries import cheap labor. Liberal governments discover that minorities are a reliable source of captive votes, especially if they're kept angry and resentful. Conservative movements respond with uncertainty, unwilling to confront the hard options on one side and settle for demanding the band aid of integrationDaniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-74361435730121797982007-10-30T15:35:00.000-04:002007-10-30T15:35:00.000-04:00"Today, Islam is an abstract even for those Americ..."Today, Islam is an abstract even for those Americans who like LGF'ers are vigorous campaigners against Islamofascism." <BR/><BR/>I totally disagree with that statement. Here's why...<BR/><BR/>Unlike WWII when America was #1 tired of war #2 still wanted to remain separate and not get involved, and #3 the war was across an ocean and they were not affected; this war is all encompassing to America. <BR/><BR/>This was the very first time a non-American came to American soil and attacked a Nation, not a person. Not only did they attack America, but they killed thousands of people. That has an effect. No longer is it abstract when you feel real fear. It becomes personal and an issue you follow and watch. <BR/><BR/>I do agree that Americans do not face what many European Countries have set themselves up with. We did it with other people, namely the Hispanics and not Muslims. But, it is also important to note that the average European did recognize that bringing in "cheap" labor was a very bad idea. They complained and yet their governments went ahead. England in particular had many English men protesting and warning before it became a reality. <BR/><BR/>I do agree with deportation. The ones you named were a good start. The only problem is that even though it's a real option, no one takes it seriously. We see that in America with the illegal immigrants. But with that example it is clear cut, they came here illegally, work illegally, and so on and so on, yet deportation is not even on the table.<BR/><BR/>The world has very real problems and those Americans who would see Islam as an abstract problem for some other people to deal with are dead wrong. What happens all over the world affects us and the last thing America or the rest of the world needs is an Islamic Europe, which will happen sooner than later.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-21766866745478802392007-10-30T13:00:00.000-04:002007-10-30T13:00:00.000-04:00K.A.yes, the basic problem is that Europe wanted c...K.A.<BR/><BR/>yes, the basic problem is that Europe wanted cheap labor and they've ignored the cultural implications of what they were doing.

In fact America supplied Russia via lend lease with everything from 3 million boots for the Russian army to powdered milk to Douglas airplanes. For decades later, Russia was still using some American equipment.<BR/><BR/>The Russians were completely unprepared for the German invasion, equipment and tanks sat disassembled and the Russians got pounded by the German war machine. They pulled back and pulled back until the Germans overextended themselves. In the process millions of lives were lost. The Russians threw UNARMED soldiers into combat just as cannon fodder. Hundreds of thousands of lives were wasted in completely pointless suicide operations.<BR/><BR/>The Russians simply took advantage of how much the Germany Army had overextended itself to begin a counterattack. Without the rest of the equation, the Germans would have broken the Russian counterattack leading either to a bloody WW1 style stalemate in the East for years or the Germans breaking the stalemate with the next generation of weapons and tactics. <BR/><BR/>It was America who actually broke Germany in both wars, advancing industrial production at a fantastic rate and meeting force with equal force.Daniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-65517808828839529482007-10-30T12:34:00.000-04:002007-10-30T12:34:00.000-04:00A strong national and cultural identity is essenti...A strong national and cultural identity is essential to a nation's survival. I think where Europeans got into trouble is that in their arrogance they probably expected their new Muslim immigrants to fall in love with their way of life and adopt an appreciation for the European lifestyle and values and simply blend into society; that they'd become more European and less Muslim/Arab in their thinking and behavior.<BR/><BR/>Most other immigrants to foreign countries typically face problems of racism, marginalization and poverty. With successive generations the children of immigrants become more mainstream and integrated and rise above this. This isn't happening in the European Muslim community, though.<BR/><BR/>Insidiously the problems began with Europeans tolerating Muslim/Arab practices and lifestyles. Cultural diversity and all. <BR/><BR/>As additional immigrants entered Europe they maintained their anti-Western biases and outright hatred, while at the same integrating themselves into politics to assert their cultural rights. Good cop/bad cop in a way.<BR/><BR/>Becoming "European" on the surface to gain influence and power while at the sametime asserting their cultural and religious rights.(note: I saw Saudi Princess Louwla al-Faisal on Good Morning America. She was saying that things such as wearing an abaye was cultural not religious. There seems to be a recognition that identifying things as religious is offensive in the west but saying something is cultural is more accepted). <BR/><BR/>So to make a long story short--Europeans made the fatal mistake of believing Muslim immigrants would adopt their wonderful culture and way of life by osmosis. Arrogant and a little childish on their part, of course. They can crack down on imams all they like but it's not doing much to rid their countries of the immigrants. <BR/><BR/>Europe's problem is out of control. They can't deport millions of immigrants. <BR/><BR/>America and Israel can still do something to prevent this sort of invasion and destruction of identity by limiting immigration and strict enforcement of immigration and other laws.<BR/><BR/>I agree that America's biggest threat is from terrorism. But, if we accept Muslim immigrants en mass and make allowances for their culture and religious practices and otherwise bend over backwards to accomodate them (as in Dearborn and to a much lesser extent Buffalo) we could well end up in the same boat as the Europeans.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-59592624621944440662007-10-30T12:32:00.000-04:002007-10-30T12:32:00.000-04:00" America was able to sweep in and save the day, m..."
