The Barbarians Are Inside, And There Are No Gates
SteynOnline ^ | 11/13/15 | Mark Steyn

Posted on 11/13/2015 7:56:13 PM PST by markomalley

As I write, Paris is under curfew for the first time since the German occupation, and the death toll from the multiple attacks stands at 158, the vast majority of them slaughtered during a concert at the Bataclan theatre, a delightful bit of 19th century Chinoiserie on the boulevard Voltaire. The last time I was there, if memory serves, was to see Julie Pietri. I'm so bloody sick of these savages shooting and bombing and killing and blowing up everything I like - whether it's the town where my little girl's favorite fondue restaurant is or my favorite hotel in Amman or the brave freespeecher who hosted me in Copenhagen ...or a music hall where I liked to go to hear a little jazz and pop and get away from the cares of the world for a couple of hours. But look at the photographs from Paris: there's nowhere to get away from it; the barbarians who yell "Allahu Akbar!" are there waiting for you ...when you go to a soccer match, you go to a concert, you go for a drink on a Friday night. They're there on the train... at the magazine office... in the Kosher supermarket... at the museum in Brussels... outside the barracks in Woolwich...

Twenty-four hours ago, I said on the radio apropos the latest campus "safe space" nonsense:

This is what we're going to be talking about when the mullahs nuke us.

Almost. When the Allahu Akbar boys opened fire, Paris was talking about the climate-change conference due to start later this month, when the world's leaders will fly in to "solve" a "problem" that doesn't exist rather than to address the one that does…

As usual, Steyn nails it, par for his course in his inimitable way.

But we are told that Islam is a religion of peace and all that.

Will we wake up? Or we still going to pretend that we’re not under attack, and can control this.

Obama the fool.

This can be nothing but bad news for the blacks who rule New Orleans.

I would guess that if one was a closet radical jihadist that had the power to destroy a nation, one would create racial division, brainwash the youth, allow countless illegals to roam the streets and THEN when the nation is on the brink of social chaos, bring in brother jihadists to allow Islam to reign

The French have surrendered by turning the lights out on the Eiffel Tower. The City of Lights is dark.

A fool: a person who acts unwisely or imprudently; a silly person. The feckless one may be doing this intentionally, but he is still a fool.

Hussein’s destruction of America is marching on. As promised, he’ll fast track vet them and they’ll be free to scatter to targets throughout the country.

OK. I’ll be the one to say it. This ALL doesn’t matter. Not this. Not hebdo. Not the mass rapes. None of it matters.

Because Hollande babbled about not letting “terrorists” get away with it. once again, for the umpteenth time, an attack has been met with PC.

What’s a terrorist? What’s terrorism? Where is Terroristoria?

The war on Terror is about as dumb a statement as “The war on Tanks” or the war on “Simultaneous air and ground attacks”

terror is a tool. Or it is a strategy. That’s it. That all.

I am SO SICK of hearing that word!!

I would like for someone once to say “another one sided battle in the war between the Middle East and the west took place again tonight. The often used tactic of entering a Western Country under the guise of migration was employed again, with deadly consequences, once again”

or anything close to that!!!

and even Ted, who I love, uses the word extremists.

NO!!

Did we wage war against German Extremists!!?? otherwise known as nazis?

no. Just the word Germans was good enough.

In Rocky III, Apollo at one point says “It’s over” because he knew Rocky didn’t have the fight in him anymore.

Neither does Europe. And Europe doesn’t have Adrian to change their mindset.
