Love him or hate him, Spengler can turn a phrase:

They have no ambition but to die quietly, no concerns except for those amusements which might reduce boredom and anxiety en route to the grave. They have no passions except hatred born of envy. They hate America, a new kind of universality that succeeded where the old Christian empire failed. They hate Israel, which makes the Jewish people appear all the more eternal in stark contrast to Europe's morbid temporality. They will pass out of history unmourned even by themselves.

That would leave their people holding a bag filled with an intellectual, spiritual, and moral vacuum in the face of an invasion by radical Islam. It is no legacy and not even much of an epitaph. BTT.
