Europeon history is about to repeat itself yet again. It's going to be interesting watching Europe fall apart in the next few years

My sentiments exactly.

Hey, this guy showed remarkable clarity...and courage. He gets it better than our own Dims. The scary part is we are only three percent away from following the Europeans to self-deluded appeasement suicide.

Even though it's been a month, welcome to FR!

As a Canadian, I see the exact same thing happening in my native country, and it makes me depressed and sick to my stomach.

If there are generations after us that can take heed, they should remember:

The radical ideas that were birthed 50 years ago by relatively few, smug "intellectuals" (which is a term only defined by those who consider themselves intellectual in the first place), have come to roost in our age.

God forbid that the amoral, secularistic, mercenaries that are now driving things like human-animal chimera research should be successful. That will make the last 50 years of upheaval look like a sunny day in comparison.

Well, for all the economic troubles and the rundown of the military and the general sense of malaise, the Germans are still the Germans, and it really won't do to provoke them back into a fighting mood. The islamists thought we were soft, too.

Europe is slowly waking up. Thank goodness Fox News is growing over there, and its changing people's minds about how they think.

"I live in Europe and can only say he's spot on."

I have had the same experiences talking to European socialists who have come to the states to visit. Even moderate conservatism is viewed with horror. So much so that is is censored over there. This is a way for certain ruling elements over there to control their people. You are not allowed to think beyond certain limits that the state sets down for you. If you go over the line, they kick you out - Notice the Dutch recently outlawed a political party because they didn't like what they were saying. The reason why this kind of soft totalitarinism thrives over there is because socialism controls you by controlling your $$.

did we now? I think you mean Belgium who banned the Flemish Block, simply for standing up for the Flemish people and being the largest legitimate party in several industrial cities. However they are back as 'Flemish Interests' and are set to gain more in the next election. Their main points are an end to non western immigration and they want Flanders to secede from Wallonia and become an independent republic. They are sick of the Wallonian socialists (ie French).

Thanks. Yes the "intellectuals" decided 50 years ago they should be in charge and changed the political system for the worse, all in the name of "anti-fascism" of course. Whilst being blind for the real dangers. The only consolation is that that generation is now retiring. The new generation of liberals here are not as entrenched as the previous ones.

Wow, that is terrific and I am sure that guy is not alone but one who had the courage to speak out. I really commend him for doing so and thanks for posting his comments.

Fox News is growing over there? That is good but I would think they would BAN it like the canadians. How do you know this?
