The Warning" is a piece of, often paleoconservative, internet fiction that gained significant popularity on the Free Republic forum in the mid-2000s. The story depicts a desperate descendant warning a man in his study about a future total societal collapse caused by a specific, yet ultimately unspoken,, modern behavior. You can read more about this, and find the original post, on the Free Republic website.

I remember it. It was the son or grandson from the future, warning the man of what was happening. And that the war was still raging where they were from. Canada had (implied) had fallen to Islam, as well as Europe.
Sound like the plot summary to a Saul Bellow novel.
When you find it, send it to the Creep Cast guys to read.
I recall something like that supposedly by Dan Simmons. It was about the encroachment of Islam into the West, if I recall. But it was a loooong time ago so who knows.

Sir, a ping to you for something you posted 20 years ago, becoming a new thread of its own.
You have staying power.
Was it one of Laz’s original writings?

thinking that was funny. Oh wait...
Seriously though - it's amazing how prescient that story was 20 years ago. Back then, so soon after 9-11, the general mindset was "Good thing that'll never happen here."
Fast forward to 2025 to see the city that took the most damage elect themselves a jihadi mayor.
The man who actually wrote the story died February 21, 2026.

900 posts and I missed the whole thread! The most chilling comment for the last 3 words was ‘New York City’. As if they knew it would elect a Mozlem mayor!
Thank you to everyone who responded.
I appreciate your help.
This story was written as a warning against Islam. Fortunately the ultimate weakness with Islam is that it cannot handle the truth. Without Lies , Islam Dies. Thanks to the Internet Mozlems all over the World are exposed to views that are normally censored. I believe this rejection of Islam in Iran is because of the Internet exposing people to the truth.
What is happening to Iran is historic. Never before has an Islamic country had a revolt against Islam itself. The only time Islam has lost territory has been when outside forces have been victorious. This could be the war that eventually burns down the whole merciless Islamic Colonization Mafia. Are we witnessing the beginning of the end of this cancerous 14 century long plague of ruthless evil ?
Matthew 7:15 is a warning from Jesus during the Sermon on the Mount to "beware of false prophets," who appear harmless like sheep but are dangerous "ravenous wolves" inwardly. Shocking in that Jesus predicts that an evil prophet will come after him and that you shall know him by his fruits. The fruits in this case being all the terrible things Islam is known for.
