There's nothing prescient about this ninny's article. This reality was predicted over 33 years ago in The Camp of the Saints.

Want to know why Dalrymple is a fool? Saying this:

Unless it assimilates these millions successfully

The problem isn't that they aren't "assimilating". The problem is that they are there. They and their religion have no plan for assimilation and never did.

Quite the opposite.

Well, I don't think the fool here is Dalrymple.

Don't EVER call Dalrymple a ninny or a fool.

As for assimilation, there's no reason why West African immigrants couldn't have been assimilated as they often are here in the US.

European policies and cultural attitudes prevent anything resembling real integration and assimilation, not only of the cultural kind but economic.

But anyone knows this, apparently not you. Don't try to pigeonhole these riots into the Islam/West template, because while that element IS at play, these 'youths' parents were far better citizens than their children and granchildren. You can't just blame Islam for that.

Exactly. They convert by the sword, unlike 99.99% of all other world religions which say "you don't believe? That's fine. I'll be on my way", versus "You don't believe? DIE Infidel!! DIE!!"

Bump for this thread, and bump for your reference to this book. Here's a link to the preface, with the image linked to the book on Amazon.

 

 

 

 


 

Preface to

The Camp of the Saints by Jean Raspail

Translated by Gerda Bikales*
1995

 

Published for the first time in 1973, Camp of the Saints is a novel that anticipates a situation which seems plausible today and foresees a threat that no longer seems unbelievable to anyone: it describes the peaceful invasion of France, and then of the West, by a third world burgeoned into multitudes. At all levels —global consciousness, governments, societies, and especially every person within himself— the question is asked belatedly: what's to be done?
