Writer Bruce Bawer thinks that many Europeans recognize that Multiculturalism is leading their societies to disaster. But theyve heard all their lives from officially approved authorities that any concern about Multiculturalism and its consequences is tantamount to racism:
Theres a widespread resignation to the fact that multiculturalists control the media, academy, state agencies, and so on. They know very well that if you want to get ahead in European society, you dont take on multicultural orthodoxy. The political establishment seems solidly planted, unmovable, unchangeable. There may be a widespread rage, in short, but its largely an impotent rage. Europeans today have been bred to be passive, to leave things to their leaders, whose wisdom theyve been taught all their lives to take for granted. To shake off a lifetime of this kind of indoctrination is not easy.
According to Bat Yeor, fear of awakening opposition to EU policy toward the Arab Mediterranean countries led to the repression of all discussion of the economic problems and difficulties of integration caused by massive immigration. Any criticism of Muslim immigration is basically brushed off as being just like the Jews were talked about in Nazi Germany, a ridiculous but effective statement.

Is the EU an instrument to end wars? In October 2006, Michel Thoomis, the secretary general of the French Action Police trade union, warned of a civil war in France created by Muslim immigrants: We are in a state of civil war, orchestrated by radical Islamists. This is not a question of urban violence any more, it is an intifada, with stones and Molotov cocktails. You no longer see two or three youths confronting police, you see whole tower blocks emptying into the streets to set their comrades free when they are arrested.
These Muslim immigrants were allowed in by the very same European elites who now want European citizens to celebrate their work through cakes and songs. While civil society is disintegrating in Western Europe due to Islamic pressures, EU authorities are working to increase Muslim immigration, while congratulating themselves for bringing peace to the continent. What peace? Where?
Too little too late? I'm afraid so. On the other hand it could be argued that late is better than never, Let's hope the latter is the case.
I not so sure about that!
Last couple years Denmark has tightened their immigration policies substantially. Especially the very conservative coalition partner Dansk Fokeparti is demanding tougher standards!!
Sweden just a couple weeks ago unseated the socialist party's decades of multicultural babbles!!!
No wonder they hate Bush so much.
If the multiculturists continue to control European society, eventually there will not be any society 'to get ahead in'. Unless of course you want the front row at the local mosque during bent over praying sessions.
The zone of the West is shrinking rapidly while our own Left works diligently to make it disappear altogether and our president wants to play Hearts-and Minds with Satan.
I hope you are correct and I am wrong.
