The European Powder Keg
Michael Yon ^ | October 26, 2015

Posted on 10/26/2015 8:36:18 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

As refugee invaders continue to swarm into Europe, reports of violence continue to pour in from across the continent. I have been communicating with many Europeans from many countries ranging from Norway to Greece. Some I meet in person, others on the phone or email.

Yesterday, I spoke with two Finnish people for about two hours. A man and a woman. Both expressed anger and frustration. They said that reports blindly call the invaders Syrians, but that most in their area are Iraqis and Somalis, or from other parts of Africa.

The Finns told me that the refugees have a sense of entitlement, are rude and demanding, and the vast majority are young men. They said that many Finns are becoming angry.

Many of us who have seen conflicts and wars are greatly concerned. Most of us who know something about the sorts of people flooding in, and their host nations such as Germany, are extremely concerned.

Examples:

1) The invaders will not understand local laws and customs, and most will not care. They will do what they can get away with.

2) They will bring fights from home that most locals do not care about or want any part of. For instance Sunni vs. Shia. Arabs vs. Kurds. Arabs and Muslims vs. Jews. These fights will spill onto local streets in places like Sweden, Germany and Italy.

3) They will bring intolerance toward women and others such as homosexuals.

4) They will throw trash on the streets.

5) Some cultures from the source areas are apt to react suddenly and violently to little more than rumors. For instance, many Iraqis are easily provoked to violence. Been there, seen that many times. That is not xenophobia, that is reality.

6) Sense of entitlement that will certainly anger many European cultures, such as Germans.

7) Economically, this is a disaster unwinding. Even without violence – and there will be violence – housing, feeding, and educating possibly millions of invaders will cost as much as a war.

8) Many will not assimilate at all and will create ghettos, as normal.

9) Outsiders will inject money to build mosques, but not to help care for the invaders.

10) Some will use these mosques to create hate centers and to spread the caliphate beyond even their dreams. There will be attacks on Jews and others.

11) As they gain in numbers and citizenship, voting demographics will change and forms of democracy will become less attractive.

In small concentrations, the host nations can absorb this and keep moving.

At some point a critical mass will be reached, causing at first local extremists to rise up and grow. First locals argue and bicker with each other – such as normal Germans becoming angry with the rapid growth of neo-Nazis that can be flamed by the refugee invasion. So Germans will likely first argue with other Germans.

The inevitable sparks will fly, violence from refugees towards Germans (or whomever), or from Germans towards refugees can spark backlash. The security forces such as police cannot control widespread discontent, and suddenly normally peaceful Germans and the peaceful elements of the refugees are inflamed.

Provocateurs will pour on the gas as they always do. We saw this endlessly in Iraq. And remember…many of the invaders are Iraqis.

Eventually in Iraq the Coalition had to install miles of concrete barriers to separate various groups not from attack us so much, but from attacking each other. Someone would blow up a mosque, as example, and in a thirst for revenge, Iraqis would grab their AKs and knives and in the morning there were heads in the streets.

There is some idea that the US caused all this to happen in Iraq, but in reality a study of their history easily reveals that this is just part of the Iraqi backdrop.

There were no “good ole’” days in their modern history.

The wisdom of US involvement is a separate question, yet more broadly the endless fighting in the Middle East and parts of Africa pre-dates US involvement.

They fight. Some fish just do not get along in the same aquarium. This is not xenophobia – coming from someone who has been to more than 70 countries for about 25 years -- this is experience talking. I and many others have been direct witness many times in many countries.

I spent more than 10 years in Europe and the Middle East. It is clear that many sorts of cultures are flooding in, and not all are the same.

For instance Kurds normally easily get along with westerners, but Arabs and Kurds often fight – even though most Arabs and most Kurds are Muslim. Most of the fighting is Muslim on Muslim, sectarian, ethnic, tribal, power fights, criminality, etc.

In many cases it is just blood feud. Iraqi Kurdish Muslims tend to get along great with Israeli-Jews, but many Iraqi Arab Muslims would kill every Israeli and every Jew on earth.

Those who are reacting cowardly in the face of this threat often deflect by saying, “But it’s the fault of America!”

The reality is that it does not matter who started the fire at this point. And America did not start the many blood feuds. Some were going long before the Pilgrims landed in America. There no end in view to some of the blood feuds that will spill onto European streets.

The fire is on. Europe will either fight it or not. Let the historians sort out who started it. (Hint: Religious and cultural.)

Time will be the litmus.

Has anyone ever found a large, clear (legible) version of this map?

One time I did put it through a wide html and copied down all the words just cuz I wanted to know what it all said.

I don't know the history of the map but by looking at it you can tell that it has been folded for transport.

The only color that really means anything on the map is the green which represents the islamic state.

I figured out the green bit. I was just wonder the difference between red, blue, black, etc.

I think black is what used to be islamic and will be again.

The comments to his FB entry are worth a look. Europe is on a collision course with a version of the Christian re-taking of Ottoman Europe, the 30 year war and both world wars all combined into a witches brew of upheaval.

Maybe its all part of God’s Plan? The Europeans put God out of their lives-—this is what they get. Life was too good to them. Maybe Russia will move in and save Europe from the Moslem horde—The 3rd Rome indeed. Maybe people will at last learn the real value of Liberty when they no longer have it. Maybe the old dark side of Europe will comeout once again—my bet—the cities of Europe will be illuminated by burning mosques.

Exactly. Ours will he over much quicker. We are armed to the teeth and the enemy has made themselves plainly visible.

Concur with you 100% that it is happening...it is just fortunate for the United States that the vast ocean prevents enormous volumes of radicalized Islamic jihadists from just walking here with their possessions.

As I’ve been saying for a while, I expect to see concentration camps in Europe in my lifetime. The only question is who will be running them for whom.
