BUCHANAN DECLARES: DEATH OF THE WEST
The New Year is just minutes old and now comes Pat Buchanan to warn: The Death of the West!
In his ultracontroversial book, which will be banned, blocked and burned in many quarters, brave Buchanan contends that the U.S. will be a Third World nation by the year 2050.
The BestSellingAuthorTVHostPresidentialCandidateColumnist predicts Europe will be inundated by an Islamic-Arab-African invasion and most First World nations, including Japan, will have begun slowly to vanish from the earth.
Buchanan is primed and ready for a media blitz behind DEATH OF THE WEST [ranked #492 on AMAZON's hourly sales chart Wednesday morning], set for release from DUNNE.
Buchanan will light the bonfire on NBC's TODAY show this Friday, according to a network source.
But the DRUDGE REPORT can once again bring you the first sneak.
Relying upon the most recent UN population studies, Buchanan declares:
By 2050, only 10% of the worlds people will be of European descent. One third of Europes people will be over 60, and one-in-ten over 80. Involuntary euthanasia has already come to Europe.
Between now and 2050, Asia, Africa, and Latin America will grow by three to four billion people -- 30 to 40 new Mexicos! -- as Europe will lose the equivalent of the entire population of Germany, Poland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland.
By 2050, 23 million Germans will have disappeared along with 16 million Italians and 30 million Russians.
Russia will lose Siberia and the far east to China and be pushed out of the Caucuses and Central Asia, where Islamic populations are exploding while Russias is dying.
Either Europe must effect a radical cutback in pensions and health care for seniors, or Europe must import scores of millions of Arabs and Africans to care for the elderly and pay the taxes to sustain their welfare states.
The 4.2 million Palestinians in Israel and on the West Bank and Gaza will explode to 9 million by 2025, and 15 million by 2050, when Palestinians will outnumber Israels Jewish population two-to-one.
Americas Dual Containment policy in the Persian Gulf seems unsustainable. In less than 25 years, Iraq will have 42 million people and Iran 94 million people, more than any European nation except Russia.
The Islamic invasions of Spain and France in the eighth century, and of the Balkans and Central Europe from the 14th to the 17th centuries, will be reenacted in the lifetime of most of those now living. Islam has already surpassed Catholicism as the largest religion on earth.
It is the Christian nations -- Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox -- that have begun to die. In a chapter titled, Where Have All the Children Gone? Buchanan explains why, and why it is unlikely the West can solve the demographic crisis before it leads to The Death of the West.
In his chapter La Reconquista, Buchanan contends that an invasion of the United States is taking place and that America now harbors a nation within a nation.
There are 30 million foreign born in the U.S. today, and between 9 and 11 million illegal aliens, or as many undocumented aliens in the U.S. as there are people in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Connecticut.
Mexico is exporting its poor and unemployed for U.S. taxpayers to employ and educate. Radical and militant Hispanics and Mexican leaders alike believe this will lead to the cultural and demographic recapture of the Southwest from America, reversing the results of The Mexican War.
By supporting open borders, the GOP is committing suicide. First-time Hispanic voters chose Clinton 15-1 over Dole. Of the seven major immigration states -- Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, California, Texas and Florida -- Mr. Bush lost five, and perhaps six. Of the 10 states with the smallest share of immigrants, Bush won all 10.
European-Americans are a minority in Americas most populous state, California, and by 2004, will be a minority in Texas.
The political agenda of California Hispanics includes race welfare for illegal aliens, racial preferences, bilingual education, open borders, dual citizenship, Cinqo de Mayo as a California holiday, and, in one case, replacing a statue of an American hero of the Mexican War with the Aztec god Quetzacoatl.
White Americans are fleeing California at the rate of 100,000 a year.
MeCHA, the student organization that claims chapters on hundreds of campuses has a program that reads like a Mexican version of the agenda of the white-supremacist Aryan Nation.
In 2001, an Office for Mexicans Abroad in Mexico was providing survival kits with everything from dried meat to anti-diarrhea pills to condoms to Mexicans setting off to break in to the United States .
As of 2000, there were 8.4 million foreign born in California, as many foreign born as there are people in New Jersey, a primary cause of the state energy and schools crisis.
Among Third World immigrants, poverty rates and incarceration rates are double and triple what they are among native-born Americans.
Shooting up the flares and waving the flag, Buchanan argues that the 1960s counter-culture has become Americas dominant culture, and the iconoclasts of that counter-culture are systematically demolishing Americas history and heritage.
Under Political Correctness, Americas greatest heroes -- soldiers, explorers and statesmen from Columbus to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson -- are under savage attack as genocidal racists and exploiters of indigenous peoples.
The history books of American public schools are being rewritten with the old heroes ignored or trashed and Western civilization disparaged and demeaned.
When Mel Gibsons film, The Patriot, came out in 2000, it was savagely attacked for presenting black Americans as fighting patriots in the Revolutionary War.
With the assault on Confederate books, symbols, flags, heroes, and holidays almost complete, the attack is now proceeding against the Puritan fathers, soldiers who fought in The Mexican War, and, in New Jersey, even against the Declaration of Independence itself.
In some school districts, Mark Twain, Flannery OConnor, and any realistic portrayal of the America South, including Harper Lees To Kill a Mockingbird, are now forbidden.
Even the great museums on Americas Mall, to introduce school children to the greatness and glory of Americas past, are being used to indoctrinate children in how wicked and evil our forefathers were.
In his chapter, The De-Christianization of America, Buchanan argues that the death of the Christian faith in Western countries is a primary cause of their dying populations. Whenever faith dies, the people die. A new atheistic civilization is arising, he argues, and is using its dominance of the culture and the courts to drive Christianity out of the temples of our civilization.
Secular Humanism, widely mocked and disparaged, a few decades ago, is now the dominant faith of the nations cultural elites. The moral tenets of humanism are replacing those of Christianity in our public life.
Even Christian churches are rewriting their hymnals to make them acceptable to the dominant culture.
Anti-Catholic films and filthy and blasphemous anti-Christian art are the deliberate insults of a triumphant pagan and secularist faith.
The book's publication was delayed after September terror.

May I commend to you this quotation from Ridin' Shotgun in post #326:
"...Professor Harry Elmer Barnes in his pamphlet, "The Struggle Against the Historical Blackout' said this, about that: 'If world policy of today (1951) cannot be divorced from the mythology of the 1940's, a third world war is inevitable...History has been the chief intellectual casualty of the second World War and the cold war which followed. In this country today, and it is also true of most other nations, many professional historians gladly falsify history quite voluntarily'...."
I find it fascinating that every American myth can be--in fact must be--torn apart except the myth surrounding the loss of the Republic and the rise of Washington DC as the Other Evil Empire. I use the word "evil" because shout as we may on this forum, literally billions of people on the streets of the world cheered Osama Bin Laden. This would have been unthinkable in 1901 when the USA generated the most hostility among the power elites in the Old and Ancient World--NOT among the man on the street.
I suppose the reason that myth is still sacred is because it serves the purposes of both the Police/Welfare State AND trans-national corporations.
Why, precisely, was the USA involved in stripping Germany of it's military after WWI? Why didn't we strip England and France of their military? Oh. That's right. They "won". Had we kept our noses out of this clash of Imperial powers--you know, simply do what George Washington advised us to do-- the Nations of Europe could only have fought Germany to a draw. The peace treaty drawn up would not have put the burden of "guilt" for the war solely on Germany's shoulders. Only America's late entry and emergence relativley unscathed gave England and France the energy to shove that poison pill down Germany's throat at Versailles.
Hitler becomes a housepainter in Munich without Versailles--without America's entry into WWI. At that, all Woody wanted to do was "make the world safe for democracy". Shoeless George wants to vanquish "terrorism" and "evil" itself.
Result? Just as the Republic disappeared in the 20th Century--The United States Empire will not exist in 2101.
Have fun. You can tell your grandchildren that if only we had killed a few more "evil" people, if only we had set up a few more non-governmental agencies to spread the good news of consumer capitalism. if only we had exported more dailsy-cutter "freedom" and more tomahawk "democracy", more shopping malls, if only we had done more to everybody and for everybody, then everybody would be like us.

When you went to school, they only taught the truth? History is bunk.
True history is that history which strengthens the society that teaches it.

Sure, lets develop every square mile of America so we can run all the animals off their ranges and put them into extinction while we import our food from other nations. Oh, yeah, there is millions of square miles left in Texas and Nevada, Montana etc. Putting up millions of pink and yellow 20 story apartment building will create jobs. We have room for millions and millions of people.
Who cares if the are uneducated? So what if they don't speak our language. If they can't afford medical care, its up to us to give it to them. All we have to do is raise our taxes.
Our so called leaders and politicians say: Those Americans that are protected by tall financial fences will be isolated from the massive waves of millions of uneducated illegals. Those of you that are not quite as financially fortuanate, to bad. Try to assimilate.

"taming his racist rants"
Could you please quote an example of a racist rant by Mr. Buchanan? If he has racist rants, surely there is at least one, maybe more, that you could quote. The very least we Freepers should be able to do is back up our charges with facts.
To: nomasmojarras
He is right on the mark with this book. I am as worried about illegal immigration as I am about terrorism. The two go hand in hand, actually. Well said nomasmojarras...all your posts on this thread.

The socialist state of our country is also a very large difference, Reasonable point. Frankly, though, most of the Asians I've known have been quite anti-socialist, many because they've lived through it.
I wonder though, how much here is perspective. When I think of immigrants, I tend to think of the Asian grad students and professors I knew, who were pro-capitalist, planned to stay in the U.S., and were quite respectful of the U.S.'s history. No matter what immigration policy the nation pursues, we need to keep these people coming.
As the Italians came here, they weren't known for printing newspapers or starting organizations advocating the overthrow of the system of govt, and demanding that their children be taught in Italian.
The Germans who came in the 1840s and early 1850s were, however. Lots of associates and fans of that Karl Marx guy and started some of the first major socialist and communist organizations in America.

Fearful that American is being "de-Christianized," Buchanan argues that "while the prognosis is not good," America must reevaluate itself and reclaim its white, Christian origins; despite the current "coarseness of her manners, the decadence of her culture, or the sickness in her soul," the nation is worth saving. In fairness here, I'm noting that the "reclaim its white, Christian origins" line isn't a direct quote - but Pat's this close to buying his white sheets.

As a reply to your comments on knowledge of history; here is an adaptation of my post from: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/fr/598255/posts?page=1,50 , a very worthwhile thread about an Iwo Jima survivor.
Knowledge of American history is crucial to our future survival. For if Americans are ignorant of what previous generations fought for and the sacrifices they made, we have a country where a character like Kliñtóñ can be elected President. We have a country where the likes of Madeleine Halfbright can make persuasive arguments to Generals like, Whats the point of having this superb military that youre always talking about if we cant use it?
Ask either of those jokers what Iwo Jima is and theyd probably agree, Oh, Iwo Jima, hes Minister of Economic Development for Mauritania. Isnt he? Yes, yes, I think he is. OK, lets try another question for the two of you. During what years did Carl Marx edit the Rhienische Zeitung? Well lets see now, he joined with Engels to publish The Manifesto in 1847. Well say 1842 to 1843. Yes, yes, thats it, 1842 to 1843. Final answer. Youre right!
Our fantastic American history is spoon-fed in an endless stream of vivid documentaries on the History Channel. There is no longer an excuse for being ignorant of it (What's this black and white stuff? Theres something totally awesome on MTV. I mean, like, they got this dude. Ya know? And, hes nailed to this crucifix and hangin up-side down and then it starts spinning. Turn it on Man!)
But, theres no accounting for the choices people will make.
To: ex-snook
Any reason why the moms and pops of the modern world (not 3rd world) are opting not to have babies or to kill them??? We already have the largest debt of any nation in the world. That being the case, the possibility of third world poverty isn't all that difficult to imagine sometime in America's future.
As for the kids, I have this niggling little suspicion that many of our young folks(at least those that I know) are more aware of what's going on than we give them credit for. Its getting harder and harder for them to get their feet firmly planted, much less put up that good old yuppie 'better than the Jones'es' facade and they also fear for the future. Giving credit where its due, I will admit that there may even be a little personal selfishness in that equation.
To: PuNcH
I refer you here, though I doubt you really want an answer. And save your pathetic parlor psychoanalysis for someone who cares what you think. I hardly believe you're qualified to handle your own problems without diagnosing those of others. In fact, I deem all of your past and future posts as passive aggressive feelings not worthy of consideration.
As for Nazi v. fascist, Nazism involves German nationalism and allegiance to Adolf Hitler, and despite all of his rantings, I don't think Buchanan has gone that far. Thus, he's not a Nazi.
To: LaBelleDameSansMerci
One of the most interesting aspects of the modern immigrant saga has been the deafening SILENCE on the part of the environmental lobby. This is because the environmental lobby has been infiltrated by communists that want to bring down this country. Secretly favoring unlimited immigration is a way to accomplish their aims while feigning concern about the environment.

See what I mean? You're always looking for the pile in the room with the pony, especially when the media tells you its there.Not looking for the pile, but not denying the liklihood of its being there. Generally, I give very little validation to the mainstream media. How cognizant you are of the enormity of the Enron scandal remains unknown, however, Kenneth Lay of Enron is Bush's chief financial backer. There are many questionable business practices if not out-and-out fraud about this whole stinking pile. Lay took $130 million in salary in the year Enron went belly up on the backs of the investors and the employees.
See what I mean? The pony is having a shitfit and you want the pony to stay in the livingroom because he's so cute.

Referring back to my original post
here:
- Call on the citizens of this country (of all races) to demand that immigration laws be enforced
- Start a grassroots campaign that would demand that our spurious legislators (who love to create laws to burden citizens) must stop creating new laws until they create a law that will hold themselves personally responsible - if any of the new laws that they pass are not enforced.
I also agree with something that someone else posted on this thread, which is: Have a five-year moratorium on all immigration to this country until we sort out the illegal immigration mess in this country and I will add...until we think through and create new immigration laws that benefit this country.

As the Italians came here, they weren't known for printing newspapers or starting organizations advocating the overthrow of the system of govt, and demanding that their children be taught in Italian. WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! The early Italian settlers published many socialist and anarchist newspapers, the latter of which arose the ire of Theodore Roosevelt. Let's also not forget Sacco & Vanzetti.
I am half-Polish American and my grandmother was taught in a POLISH LANGUAGE parochial school in Newark, New Jersey.

The Southwestern states are in a Catch-22 situation. Illegal immigrants from Mexico are tapping the states' social services, but at the same time, the illegals play a significant part in the health of the states' economy, doing much of the difficult agricultural work that Americans choose to avoid.
