“Radical Islam is antithetical to the globalist cause.”
Poor logic there, Andy. Radical Islam is a tool to destroy American hegemony and the middle class. As an added benefit, you get the security-at-all-costs crowd on your side-even as they fund their own destruction.
Globalism isn’t about economics; it is the pursuit of pure power, and fear is the greatest power in the human arsenal. Collapse the world economy in concert with the greatest terror campaign in history, and voilè!
World Peace under the benevolent World Leader!
A new rational capitalist global economy where material wealth is equally distributed from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs. Peace will be assured through equal protection under Universal Law.
Except for a few of those pesky individuals who would rape mother Gaia for their own gain, everyone’s on board. Those others, those fanatics? The death of a few (million) radical bigots is a small price to pay. After all, everyone knows extremists are the moral equivalent to ISIS.
I pointedly disagree. Whatever the globalists thought was in their self-interest, untrammeled immigration contained the seeds of its own destruction, in this case because of radical islam. The issue isn't that globalists have problem with radical islam. It is just that radical islam is so repellent to those whose lives and societies are disrupted by it that it has created a revulsion against the globalist cause.
They had suicidally made a pact with a silent party who, it turns out, they cannot live with.
