While self confident debaters, politicians and other sorts of experts argue over which country in the world actually is the best example of a guiding light to humanity there ever was (GWB would say it is the US of today, Obama would claim it's the UN, while a proud European like my fellow countryman Hans Blix probably would say it is Saddam Hussein), evidence of the rapid decline of Western civilization is everywhere.
Yes, there are still parts of the West that function very well and where most people are well educated and well off, but for how long?

“The music in this clip is pretty worthless, but I don’t hesitate to say Sweden disposes of some very competent weaponry for being a “tiny” nation”
- I didn’t finish the line of argumentation or how to put it in proper English.
These weapons ought to be employed against all nations on Earth who resist humanity’s quest for increased liberty and the idea of justice and freedom for all.
As a European, I don’t hesitate to say that we Europeans are doing far too little in the WOT area.
Talk is cheap, but let it be known there are Europeans who truly believe the US is the closest friend Europe has and ever will have.
In fact there are millions of us.
Correction:
“while a proud European like my fellow countryman Hans Blix probably would say it is Saddam Hussein’S IRAQ” of course.
Typing is demanding work..
Tax the middle class into not being able to have time/money for 2.1 kids, and eventually, YOUR COUNTRY WILL BE A GHETTO.
HOPE is not equal to Taxes Obama!
The SAAB JAS-39 Gripen - one of the best pieces of military hardware to come out of Sweden. Also, the Draken and Viggen were damned cool.
Careful there, WC. You're skating on thin ice if you're posting this in Sweden.
Racist drivel.
There is nothing wrong with legal immigrants.
There is everything wrong with illegally present aliens.
Lumping the two into one makes your opinion just as deluded as Juan McCain's and Barack Obambi's.
“Careful there, WC. You’re skating on thin ice if you’re posting this in Sweden.”
- I ain’t:D
In case you’re anything like a kindred spirit:
- Cheers!
In chase your remark is a serious, PC one:
Racist drivel.
Correction:
chase??
:D
case, I meant.
A ghetto is a "portion of a city in which members of a minority group live especially because of social, legal, or economic pressure." -M-W Dictionary.
There are neither social or legal that compel people to live where they do only economic ones that are common to all, minority and majority alike.
“Lumping the two into one makes your opinion just as deluded as Juan McCain’s and Barack Obambi’s.”
- The US and Western Europe of today are nearing a total collapse.
The problem of how to address the questions of “blood” is suitable only for academics. The rest of us are better served by action.
We all agree Nazism and Fascism was wrong.
Does that mean Nationalism and national control over issues like ethnicity is something evil?
No, it does not.
If it is politically correct to allow your ethnicity down and welcome a Muslim colonization of your own country, I’d actually say political correctness has got to go.
Political correctness is a worse enemy to true civilization than Nazism, Communism or Al-Qaeda ever was.
It instructs us Westerners to view ourselves as weak, immoral and to embrace a sense of distrust in the bearing capacity of our historical accomplishments.
Europe is not lost and neither is America!
Maybe not yet, but we're both racing, hell bent for leather, toward that finish line.
“Maybe not yet, but we’re both racing, hell bent for leather, toward that finish line.”
- I fear you’re right, but I’m still a believer.
If Beethoven could manage to compose the greatest symphony of all time while actually being deaf and Thatcher and Reagan could accomplish what they did despite the odds against them and furthermore the backwardedness of Catholicism could be crushed by my little nation at a point in history when we had a population of just one million, we all owe it to ourselves to nurture a belief in good old Western enlightenment and civilization!
There is no other path to true liberty!
"National control" (in other words, national socialism) and other forms of totalitarianism or authoritarianism are both wrong and evil because they infringes on the inalienable rights of the individual to life, to liberty, and to the pursuit of happiness.
Frankly, I find disgusting and repugnant your opinion that somehow "national control over issues like ethnicity" is not at all evil. One need only look to the Soviet gulags, the Nazi ovens, Japanese' treatment of WWII Allied POWs, and to the internment camps, Jim Crow laws, and eugenics of the United States...and to all the other "national control" ethnicity experiments of the twentieth century to see that it is evil.
So basically you're saying that we should commit acts of war against any government that does not meet with our standard of approval?
All you are doing is giving a green light to whomever has the most power to force himself or herself upon weaker powers. And that is most definitely neither Western nor civilized.
Frankly, if your remarks don't constitute Socialist warmongering, then I don't know what does.
Ping to post 17.
They're trying to integrate immigrants, legal or otherwise, into their cheap labor markets because it's good for business and good for the economy, or so they think. But you are right, Europe and America are fast becoming third-world ghettos because of this massive importation of immigrants for cheap labor phenomenon. The third-worlders may come to Europe and America for work, but they also bring along their third-world roots of socialism, lethargy and crude lifestyle. It's the inevitable result of the West having aborted away a very large portion of its work force.
