"Being funny is hard. Being funny while writing about suicide bombings, apocalyptic fatwas, beheadings and all the other calling cards of murderous Islamists is just about impossible. In fact, there is only one columnist on the face of the planet who can do it." ~ Jonathan Kay - The New York Post
It’s the end of the world as we know it…
Someday soon, you might wake up to the call to prayer from a muezzin. Europeans already are.
And liberals will still tell you that "diversity is our strength" — while Talibanic enforcers cruise Greenwich Village burning books and barber shops, the Supreme Court decides sharia law doesn’t violate the "separation of church and state," and the Hollywood Left decides to give up on gay rights in favor of the much safer charms of polygamy.
If you think this can’t happen, you haven’t been paying attention, as the hilarious, provocative, and brilliant Mark Steyn — the most popular conservative columnist in the English-speaking world—shows to devastating effect in this, his first and eagerly awaited new book on American and global politics.
The future, as Steyn shows, belongs to the fecund and the confident. And the Islamists are both, while the West—wedded to a multiculturalism that undercuts its own confidence, a welfare state that nudges it toward sloth and self-indulgence, and a childlessness that consigns it to oblivion — is looking ever more like the ruins of a civilization.
Europe, laments Steyn, is almost certainly a goner. The future, if the West has one, belongs to America alone — with maybe its cousins in brave Australia. But America can survive, prosper, and defend its freedom only if it continues to believe in itself, in the sturdier virtues of self-reliance (not government), in the centrality of family, and in the conviction that our country really is the world’s last best hope.
Steyn argues that, contra the liberal cultural relativists, America should proclaim the obvious: we do have a better government, religion, and culture than our enemies, and we should spread America’s influence around the world—for our own sake as well as theirs.
There actually is an entire country outside of New Jersey.
Sure!

ty for the ping.
Thanks for the ping. Listening now.
Thanks for the ping. Demographics is destiny.
I shiver to hear this...remembering Constantinople (Byzantium) in her hour of need...alone with few heroes standing firm.
BUMP
He’s right about women needing men...and how men have turned into pansies like Italian males...present company excluded.
He’s right as well about Greeks and other Meds-—the stereoypes have been overturned...given up on having kids.
The future belongs to the fertile.
“There actually is an entire country outside of New Jersey.”
Shhhh! Don’t tell them that-—it isn’t in their world view.
“Thanks for the ping. Demographics is destiny.”
Amateurs study tactics, professionals study logistics, and victors study demographics.
The Dutch gay humanist...will last about 2 seconds in a muslim state.
That long? :-)
That's the thing I hate about Easterners. Makes me hate reading National Review.
Interesting interview, but it could do without the leftist hack. Reminds me of “America’s ex-wife.”
Actually during Ottoman times they lasted longer than most dhimmis...if you get my drift.
Thanks. 3F here; 35F there. Hillary won Nevada I just saw.
