Notes on such a time as this
American Thinker ^ | 17 Apr, 2026 | Eric Utter

Posted on 04/18/2026 7:02:13 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Reading the news today got me to thinking about various things. Such as:

*If European countries are too afraid of their rapidly growing Muslim populations to act in defense of their own interests—and that of the majority of their citizens-- as regards the world's greatest state sponsor of terror, Iran, they are already defeated. The only question is, have they willingly, treasonously, and knowingly surrendered, or are they tragically unaware of their own impending demise. My educated guess is the former. More’s the pity.

*I want to say something very clearly, and with great specificity: If today’s Democrats were in their same positions During World War II—and Donald Trump was the president—they would have unquestionably rooted for Japan, Germany, and Italy. Such is their rabid hatred of Trump. Had they been around in revolutionary times, they would have rooted for England. Had they been around during the Civil War, they would have rooted for the Confederacy. Oh, wait a minute, they actually were the Confederacy. Their evil knows no bounds. Or time constraints.

Europe could drive the muslims out (again) and they could defeat the socialists (again), but I don’t think they have the will to even see the threat.

Precisely.

Europe is a few gallons short on the ol’ testosterone scale to be driving anybody out. They’re already sharing their wives and daughters.

That’s because they are still recovering from having spent the past two centuries self-destructing, culminating in World War I and II. The spiritual decay has always internal more than external. But at least they’ve learned their lesson about being war-addicted.

Conservative Americans are against the Iran War because they want the focus back on domestic issues.

It was a long and winding road, but the majority of Americans are now sheep. Tragic.

That may be true, but for a moment in November 2024, the majority of the sheep recognized Trump as the good shepherd.

The antebellum Democrats were the strict Constitutional and Conservative party.

The quest for endless empire, and the resulting endless wars, meant for all the (temporary) colonial gains, Europe was losing itself:

Napoleonic Wars
Seven Years War
Nine Years War
Thirty Years War
Hundred Years War

Again — culminating in World War I and World War II.

The demise was MORE than two centuries in the making and it SELF-inflicted.

“ but I don’t think they have the will to even see the threat.”

To do so would be seen as racist. The Eurowienies cannot abide being thought of as racist. The enemy knows this, and capitalizes on it. They will give up their sovereignty and still be hated by the invaders.

I have said for years that Europe WILL see ethnic cleansing.

I said that if it happened soon, there would be a whole lot of dead Muslims.
I said that if it were delayed, there would be a whole lot of dead Europeans.

At this point, I think the matter is settled. The cleansing will happen, and there will not be a whole lot of dead Muslims.

The chaos that led to the refugee crisis was largely spurred by Neocon US ventures into those countries that failed.

A protracted conflict with Iran and further destabilization of surrounding countries could lead to the same.

The USA should immediately begin driving out the muzzoids as their foothold in US continues to grow in every sector of our society.

Good thing we have a President that walk and chew gum at the same time. Quit panicking please.

Foreign interventionism both historical and current, including American involvement in places like Syria, Libya, elsewhere is contributed to Europe’s refugee crisis.

From Ancient Rome onwards, domestic demise is often tied to addiction to empire and all the corresponding behaviors.

What does that have to do with the fact that they are nothing like that now?
