I think the euros are realizing whats going on with muslims in their countries. The politicians playing to the vocal minorities ignore the timid majorities and are setting themselves for a beating when someone steps out in support of an "un-popular" idea that the majority supports but the minority abhors like immigration controls. Shining example is Belgium and Netherlands is the 2nd chain reaction. My guess in one or two election cycles there will be swings of tremendous proportions ergo Le-Pen will begin having some success in france (or if he dies and someone with better charisma and ideas comes they will start surging). We all know the Block in Belgium will eventually become a majority either in 1 or 2 election cycles for sure. Also Netherlands is having an accelerated wake up call.

My thoughts are not as dim as the demographic experts that predict the extinction of western civilization by low birth rates. For one I m optimistic about fear and the effect of it stimulating people. Ergo have more kids. Also I m guessing living in a mixed environment provides incentive for propogation in order to secure continuity of someone like you. For example I remember watching news about Israel and they were talking to a guy whos fifty or so about faimilies and he said that when he and his wife were thinking about kids they thought maybe one or two but later decided to have more ergo four because of terror and factors steming out of that direction. I m optimistic about Russia improving they are trying to re-introduce reforms supporting large families and revive the tradition of large families. They are paying monthly per kid now to help people have more kids. There was something I read about how krasnoyarsk region had an improvement of about ten percent in the birth rate lately (center russia). Also enforcement of immigration etc. lately has been a good sign. Hopefully there will be a wave of late (better then never) baby booms in places where they are necessary.
