Then September 11 happened. And bizarrely the reaction of just about every prominent Western leader was to visit a mosque: President Bush did, the prince of Wales did, the prime minister of the United Kingdom did, the prime minister of Canada did . . . The premier of Ontario didn't, and so 20 Muslim community leaders had a big summit to denounce him for failing to visit a mosque.

Typical of succumbing to political correctness.

Maybe there was a big backlog, it was mosque drive time, prime ministers in gridlock up and down the freeway trying to get to the Sword of the Infidel-Slayer Mosque on Elm Street.

ROFLOL ... This column is well worth reading.

'That's what the war's about: our lack of civilizational confidence'

So, Spengler was right after all. Didn't he say that culture is the debased form of civilization? Do we have one debased culture squaring off with another debased culture here?

Anyway, like the man said, '...it all comes down to blood and money in the end..'

The impending death of western civilation nicely summed up.

creating an anti-market culture dominated by fundamentalism--a new Dark Ages.

Bingo.

That's the wonderful thing about multiculturalism: You can choose which side of the war you want to fight on. When the draft card arrives, just tick "home team" or "enemy," according to taste.

Outstanding article. This is just one of the many "zingers" to be found in it. It was hard to decide which one to quote. Must read!

Europe could soon be conquered by Islam. Will America be next?
Tony Blankley on how we can stop the global jihad and save Western civilization

The West's Last Chance
by Tony Blankley


Islamic jihadists are far closer than most people realize to taking over Europe. If they do, they'll impose governments there that would threaten the United States far more than Nazi Germany ever did. But there is still hope to save both Europe and America: in The West's Last Chance: Will We Win the Clash of Civilizations?, Tony Blankley explains what we must do now in order to survive the jihadist infiltration and subversion that now threatens Europe's very life.

I love Steyn and I respect his vision of what is to come...but I am not so certain of the outcome. I dont think Western culture is going to go silently into the night. I think that the farther nations like Germany etc fall into unemployment, economic instability etc etc you will find people becoming more and more radicallized about their sense of survival. As that progresses people significantly less tolerant of "Islam" and in particular muslim immigrants will gain more power not less. I think you will see a radicalization of European nationalism.

I also dont think that Islamic radicals have the patience of their long term vision. As they approach more comfortable population densities their actions such as bomings, rapings, murdering etc etc will become more and more frequent and more and more agressive.

Perhaps its the optimist in me (if you want to call it optimism) but I just dont see people putting up with that iundefinately and just sitting on tehir hands indefinately. eventually it will boil over and those "less tolerant" folks will be elevated to power on platforms that dont involve trotting down to the local mosque to show how tolerant they are.

I see war in Europes future. Who knows what the outcome of that will be..but I definately see war.

"If anything, the West is awash in an epidemic of self-hate crimes. A commenter on Tim Blair's Web site in Australia summed it up in a note-perfect parody of a Guardian headline: "Muslim Community Leaders Warn of Backlash from Tomorrow Morning's Terrorist Attack." Those community leaders have the measure of us."

"...was arguing that our tolerance of our own tolerance is making us intolerant of other people's intolerance, which is intolerable. And, unlikely as it sounds, this has now become the highest, most rarefied form of multiculturalism. So you're nice to gays and the Inuit? Big deal. Anyone can be tolerant of fellows like that, but tolerance of intolerance gives an even more intense frisson of pleasure to the multiculti masochists. In other words, just as the AIDS pandemic greatly facilitated societal surrender to the gay agenda, so 9/11 is greatly facilitating our surrender to the most extreme aspects of the multicultural agenda."

Just makes me want to scream to the world to wake up and smell the coffee before there's nothing to wake up to, or you don't wake up because some islamofascist has sawed your head off.

Someone wrote this book, "Death of the West" a while ago. I dare not speak his name on FR.

[wouldntbprudent]

A long, but excellent read! I highly recommend it.

To all those in America who are bringing up children with the "right" view of the "Western concept," may your numbers increase! It is a measure of our optimism and our belief in the fundamental ideals of our country that we help create our country's future through our children.

[angkor]

Excellent, even for Steyn. Recommended reading.

In the end we will either fight or submit.

As Jerry Pournelle repeats, "Liberalism is a philosophy of consolation as the West commits suicide."
