Increasingly, countries that were once U.S. allies are aligning themselves with America’s enemies.
The signs were obvious two decades ago, and the insightful Mark Steyn—the conservative Canadian author—addressed them then. In numerous books, written in his sharp, convincing style, he warned that America would soon become isolated in its fight against Islamist jihad. Today, that loneliness appears to be fully realized.
His 2006 book America Alone: The End of the World as We Know It, convincingly argued that much of the Western world would not survive the 21st century. Europe, with its declining birthrate, would be the first to go—thanks to white people being “too self-absorbed to breed,” while Muslims worked to change the demographics in their favor.
It also predicted that Europe would be defeated by its obsession with multiculturalism—essentially a surrender to Islam—and its welfare-driven laziness. Only America, dedicated to individual effort, morals, and economic growth, would be able to resist the onslaught of civilizational jihad.
Just five years later, in After America: Get Ready for Armageddon, Steyn lamented that America was also in serious danger of joining the rest of the Western world in an unavoidable decline. He observed that the growth of government, rising debt, the focus on diversity over excellence, and cultural shifts—away from individualism and self-reliance toward state handouts—were hollowing out America.
Fifteen years later, not only is the mood in Europe and the U.S. against America, but our neighbors, Canada and Mexico, too, are hesitant to join us in confronting a three-pronged threat: Islamists, the unchecked Trojan horse tactics of communist China, and the drug and smuggling cartels at our borders. Canada has fallen under the influence of both Islam and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), while powerful criminal cartels aligned with China have a firm grip on Mexico.

It is hard to avoid foreign entanglements when they are at your borders.
yes we are completely alone in many regards. The chinamen can buy off everybody else.
The parasitic class (politicians, bureaucrats, elitist, etc.) are always primarily focused on their efforts to enrich themselves at the expense of the hoi polloi, and are therefore mostly disinterested in anything else that doesn’t affect those efforts. They evidently believe external threats present just another opportunity to be exploited for personal benefit.
“””” he warned that America would soon become isolated in its fight against Islamist jihad””””
Steyn is correct. The Western European leaders are quaking in their slippers that the Jihadists they invited into their countries will start a civil war.
This is why Trump is doing what he's doing.
The daylight raids have been Israeli.
This is the kind of job we have paid the UN to do at a cost of $15 to $20 billion taxpayer dollars a year.
The job that the UN doesn’t do so we have to do ourselves.
Because the UN is too busy working against the interests of the USA while they push their WOKE, DEI, socialist, Globalist agenda on the world.
It usually is.
Janet dearie...... I know you have to write some words to get paid, but really.
Islam and China are not really a threat to America.
Considering that Iran is attacking its muslim cohorts, and they’re not happy about it, for the time being, I’d say *No*.
No. The structure of the "clash" -- reference Samuel Huntington -- is between civilizations. With the European and Canadian Left aligned with other authoritarian regimes worldwide, it is a "fight" between liberty and those who would diminish for their own gain. This includes American Democrats and assorted other Lefties. So "America" when one takes away the Left in America, and adds in the liberty-loving around the world is a large and growing phenomenon.
Liberty. It's worth fighting for.
YES.
We have 2 major military allies in different parts of the world. Hardnosed Israel with 10 million people and in an existential fight every single day from their beginning and hesitant NATO in Europe with 450 million fighting the good virtue signaling fight. You be the judge of who has proven to be the more substantial military ally, especially over the last year.
The Western European leaders are quaking in their slippers that the Jihadists they invited into their countries will start a civil war.
‘’’’’’’’
That’s the current fear of the ruling class in europe. They are unmanned. When they are replaced by pro european parties manned by men —there will likely be civil war.
right now the only men in europe are muslims. in order to have a civil war you have to have men on both sides. Right now there are only men on one side.
.
Correct. They surrendered years ago.
Just started to reread this last week. 20 years out, Steyn was spot on. Spooky.
