In recent years (and more recently in the Trump era), strategic and international affairs experts have spent tons of ink and paper trying to predict what the world would be like without America. Diplomatic gurus, prestigious essayists, former political leaders, and reputable publishers have dedicated blood, sweat and money to warn of all the bad things that lay ahead for Europeans when Washington looked the other way, over their heads, or retreated into itself. Titles like "The Return of the Jungle" or "The End of the West" or "A World Without America" illustrate this trend.
But we have to admit that these attempts at warning and, at the same time, expressions of fear, have turned out to be all wrong. What we are experiencing in Donald Trump's second term is not America's retreat into strategic introspection. Let them tell that to Khamenei or Maduro without going any further. Nor is it strategically a languishing of the West towards irrelevance. Today, America is stronger, richer and better prepared for today's technological revolution than it was four years ago.
No. What the pundits have been unable or unwilling to see, possibly motivated by their excess of mental Eurocentrism, is the reality of the situation:
It is not America that is leaving the world, it is Europe, in fact, that is leaving it.

Seems like the ‘elites’ get more so and the commoners get squeezed more and more. Paper? Yeah? Reality? Nah!
The re-construction of Notre Dame Cathedral is for naught.
As we all know, much of Europe is deliberately driving right off the cliff. Absent a series of military coups…perhaps the best thing for Europe (or for Western Europe, anyway) would be for it to devolve into a bunch of small city-states.
One city-state could go entirely green, and welcome Muslim invaders.
The next one down the road could govern sensibly. Life could still be good there.
Side note to the sensible ones: Fortify your borders. Build walls and high fences.
islamists run Britain.
If the Labour Party (communists) do not do exactly what the imams dictate, they withdraw support for the communists and the government falls.
Checkmate.
At 10% of the population.

YEP 😲🤯🤯
Get out the old Castle blueprints...
Their Deep State runs the UK.
The Islamists are just a rent-a-mob.
I’ve been telling the Yurps this since at least the early 1990s when I first started living over there.
They’re simply wrong about everything. Gaia Worship, Censorship, Importing Muslims, Socialism, increasing Authoritarianism, rule by Bureaucrats (and their buddies who they went to school with who all lead the big businesses and banks and the media), the antipathy toward the nation state, the lack of a credible military. All of it. If Western Europe is to save itself it would have to completely dispossess its current elites because they are all in on it.
Eastern Europe having suffered under the yoke of State Socialism, was inoculated against the same self loathing intellectual poison that afflicts the West.
Yes. In fact, Europe is committing suicide.
You’re a peon in the EU. Islam does’t need sophisticated weaponry to overtake the current totalitarians. So long civilizations.
(They’re simply wrong about everything. Gaia Worship, Censorship, Importing Muslims, Socialism, increasing Authoritarianism, rule by Bureaucrats)
Yes. With few exceptions like Poland and Hungary it seems.
I can’t prove but I believe it possible that Satan’s Antichrist will arise from there.
Great Britain is fast becoming a scary model of ‘1984’ Fascism mixed with CCP Social Credit Score and Mandatory Digital ID
😯😲🙀😱😨🙀🙀
All the remedies I've seen thus far are purely secular and ineffectual. They amount to nothing.
Unless the west (including the USA) experiences a genuine Revival, there is neither hope nor future.

Ha, yes. And on a related note, here’s a website that will generate a name for your castle. 🏰

(No, I wasn’t looking for such a site. I came across it by accident.)
Good article; thanks for posting.
It’s not Europe anymore.
About Us
Voz Media: The Voice of Hispanics in the United States
An independent media outlet committed to the values that have shaped the greatness of our nation.
Founded in 2022 and based in Las Colinas, Texas, Voz Media is dedicated to the stories and values of the growing Hispanic community in the United States. Under the leadership of Texas entrepreneur Orlando Salazar, we will give voice to a vital community for the future of this nation.
Our mission is to promote the fundamental principles that uphold the United States as a bastion of freedom and progress, inspiring millions to pursue the American Dream. More than just a media outlet, we are a platform for Hispanics who, through hard work and determination, are building a more prosperous country.
Join us in this mission to give a voice to those who are writing the next great chapter of our shared history. Voz.us is an independent online media platform owned by Voz Media Inc., a for-profit organization based in Las Colinas, Texas, funded through the usual channels in the industry (advertising, subscriptions, sponsorships, investments by the owners, etc.).
These are the immigrants that we embrace. They come here . They do not try to make it in their vision, but in the vision that the founders wanted. They become part of the fabric, not a separate fabirc that wants to be different than the fabric that has existed here. They understand that we are are Americans, and that all they need is to accept us, for them to be accepted in return.
Bravo VOZ. I have no doubt that you will be a resoundingly successful outlet that will bring much needed sanity to the diuscussion & promotion of this nation. We welcome you to your new nation that has a rich history of accepting your presence in making America a better place to live, instead of tearing it down and calling us names. It is not a nation that provides you success,. It is a nation that offeres you the opportuity to create your success & a success that is rooted in good for the people that make her a beter place for goodness. A belief that is sorely missing in this world., and is disappearing in this nation because people tink that they are owed a lving. No one gets a living because they are entitled to it. They get a living because they work towards that goal.
2 world wars in the 20th century caused by arrogant and elitist men. The first were mainly cousins of Queen Victoria They couldn’t play nicely in Seth sandbox, so 20 million had to die.
