Well, can it? Before you answer, take a look at the short VIDEO, available on YouTube by Dale Hurd. Hurd begins with the by-now-familiar news that Britain's top judge and the Archbishop of Canterbury have both publicly declared themselves in favor of instituting some elements of sharia law in Britain. Hurd also notes that British authorities have been bending over backwards to cater to Muslim sensitivities. In Scotland, over a police advertisement which portrayed a cuddly puppy called Rebel, Islamic authorities declared the advertisement "offensive" and police officials fell over themselves apologizing for their insensitivity. He also notes how unevenly the enforcement of the so-called "hate speech" legislation has been. When that Danish paper published those cartoons, Muslims living in Britain took to the streets and demanded blood. "We want Danish blood," shouted protesters. But when a British news program exposed the violent rhetoric that is a staple at many mosques, the police did not charge the Imams who preached violence. No, that might offend Muslims. Instead, they charged the news program for fomenting "racial haterd." The apex of Britain's accomodationist spirit came when the Home Secretary announced that henceforth Islamic terrorism would be rebranded "anti-Islamic activity." Would that George Orwell were around to update his disquisition on Newspeak: War is Peace, Hate is Love, and when Muslims blow up a bus in central London that is an example of anti-Islamic activity.

I don’t think any nation can really survive multiculturalism.
No, they can not and will not. For that matter, neither can the United States of America.
I would say that not only cannot Britain survive multiculturanism, bur it has not survived multiculturalism, The Britain of understated self confidence is gone.
Multiculturalism, progressivism, Marxism. All the same.
Talk to British libs some time. Many of them believe that Britain is at fault for their Colonial era and they OWE Pakistanis, Africans, Indians, etc something. Throw in the usual soulless attorneys, and you have the blueprint for collapse of your civilization.
The same thing is happening here. The Libs want destruction in the name of guilt (self-loathing) and social justice. The latter is always done badly in that we encourage minorities to commit horrendous crimes since we decide as a nation not to punish them.
Bottom-line, Britain has been weakened because it has abandoned God, pure and simple. They have tossed out Christ as an anachronism but His power is the ONLY thing that protects them from the Muslim hordes. Christ’s yoke is easy and burden light, but Mohammed requires you to carry a heavy chain wrapped around your soul.
No.
Britain’s done.
The sun has set.
It is not multiculturalism, it is Islamism. The Brits let too many into their country and stupidly enacted various hate crime laws, which Muslims pay no attention to except when they file a complaint.
No. The very multiculturalism Britain pushes is what will bury it. The country has sacrificed it’s own sovereignty in the name of Political Correctness and accommodation. Britain has accommodated foreign immigrants to the point of losing it own identity and the immigrants coming in now have no intention of assimilating into British society. France is another example of a lost culture. Spain and Italy are close behind....and so are we.
To Muslims don't be rude
Living in dhimmitude,
No offense bring.
Gospel preaching is "hate"
Christian faith second rate
The end of servile state:
Alllah is King.
When Ramadan draws near
We forsake ale and beer
(Can’t give offense)
School children can’t eat lunch
Can’t even candies crunch
Lest Moslems’ panties bunch
Dhimmis’ nonsense.
coming to the usa soon?
Multiculturalism is a BS term for Anti-Christianism. Two things are needed to save the West from Islam. A public recognition that Islam is a Christian heresy of the 8th century and shouldn’t be given any respect in the West because it’s very nature is anti-western. It, IE:Islam, itself is the enemy of what we call Western values. And second the Re-Christianization of our culture. Because at it’s essence the West is Christianity and Christianity is the West. Islam can only be defeated by the Cross. But we have many enemies amongst us....including the secularists and liberals even though they would be the first to go under Islamic law.
When I first mentioned Islam and the last days...I was considered crazy. IMO Islam will not go away but will become larger and more aggressive and play a very significant role in the time leading up to and during the AC.
The entire western civilization is crumbling because of multiculturalism
> I would say that not only cannot Britain survive multiculturanism, bur it has not survived multiculturalism
I respectfully disagree. Britain has been a “multicultural” country since before the time of Julius Caesar. It has never been an easy ride for them, but there is a really good reason why they are called The United Kingdom.
What Britain *isn’t* surviving very well is the aftermath of dissolving its multicultural worldwide Empire: that was done sloppily. France, too: and the Netherlands, and Belgium.
Lawless disruptive elements have taken root and are prospering: like the Jamaican crime gangs, for example. And of course the militant muslims.
But if you take an honest and accurate look at the ethnic makeup of Great Britain, going back for centuries there have been dozens of different “cultures” there, and up until the past, say, fifty years or so they all coexisted reasonably well.
Britain has also flirted with Liberalism, in a way that The Enlightenment never intended. Just like most Western nations. And Liberalism is death to any Nation, when taken to its logical conclusion.
IMO Islam is Armageddon
no
A world power for centuries, her major cities have long had large cosmopolitan populations, drawn from many nations. While some of these may have been gradually absorbed into one or another of the three British nations, most have retained their identity. Most of such persons have been self-supporting, and were traditionally no problem to the ongoing British nations.
But in recent decades, the British Left has allowed a huge influx of non-British peoples from Britain's former colonies. And, frankly, it seriously begs major philosophic questions, to just label them as "British," though also "multi-cultural." The only reason--absolutely the only reason--that this is not getting the discussion it deserves, is because of the Leftist compulsion against discussing the wide differences among human types.
To understand that this is a neurotic compulsion, that is clearly undermining any future for those afflicted with it, you need to consider only one aspect of the debate that should be taking place:
In no other field of human interest, whether in the organic or inorganic world, are those interested in the field loathe to examine all the nuances, all the variations of items in that field. Those who raise one type of horses, have no problem with people studying and pointing out the differences in equine types; nor is it any different with dogs, cats, swine, cattle, gorillas, gibbons, whales, sharks, types of corn, oranges, wheat; nor with types of rock, soil, manufactured goods, cars, architecture, literature, etc., etc.. It is only the study of human differences that is being suppressed; shouted down on campuses across the Western World.
If the British cannot address the results of this neurotic compulsion, they are going to rapidly become of very little importance, even in their ancestral domains. Losing your identity, as a people, may just be a more fearful thing than being called a nasty name by some deranged neurotic, but if you insist on burying your head in the sand, you may never wake up to realize that. Of course the same disease has afflicted America.
For a frank look at the psychological dynamics: Life & Politics In A Pavlovian Kennel. The consequences of the delusional mindset discussed are adverse for all of us, regardless of "race, creed or color," as the saying goes.
It used to be entertaining for me to go and talk to them for a few minutes. When they would speak of their wonderful “religion” their eyes would glaze over and each one of them spoke from the same script.
Thats what liberals today remind me of. They spew the exact same talking points that the MSM spouts and have the same glazed look in their eyes.
