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 world’s people will be of European descent. One third of Europe’s 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 Russia’s 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 Israel’s Jewish population two-to-one.

• America’s “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 America’s 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 America’s dominant culture, and the iconoclasts of that counter-culture are systematically demolishing America’s history and heritage.

• Under Political Correctness, America’s 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 Gibson’s 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 O’Connor, and any realistic portrayal of the America South, including Harper’ Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird, are now forbidden.

• Even the great museums on America’s Mall, to introduce school children to the greatness and glory of America’s 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 nation’s 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.

Developing...

[FITZ]

Those factory workers didn't have welfare back then and were willing to pay for college for their own children ---unlike the immigrant today ---at least many of them. In the area I live, we have very high illegal immigration, a 38% dropout rate---not even high school because many drop out in middle school. The teen pregnancy rate is extremely high and the housing projects are full of illegals. A little different than the past when the immigrants had different values and strived to be educated.

[Poohbah]

Is it my imagination, or do we have more racialist posters of late?

[garbanzo]

Unfortunately one of the side effects of 9/11 was to bring the Kloset Klukkers out from under their rocks.

[FITZ]

But they are sending us an endless supply of people they don't want. It isn't our gain when those people end up in housing projects and add to a high illiteracy rate here in the US. We now have to offer a Spanish GED because they don't care to learn English or finish school around here.

[FITZ]

Maybe you haven't seen the conditions of the border counties lately. They've been declared an economic disaster and are in need of large amounts of federal and state dollars. If immigration was really wonderful for the economy, it should be a different story.

[FITZ]

Was the founder of Operation Blockade a racist hater and were the people who elected him to Congress because they believed he was helping their area by limiting immigration and enforcing the border nothing but a bunch of bigots?

[luvzhottea]

Really? Will this ultimatly be any different than the Israel lobby (whose supporters dominate the Democratic Party in South Florida and vote 85% Dem nationwide) lobbying to send my tax dollars to their country. What about the Greek, Armenian and Cuban lobbies? I think middle eastern immigration will be good for our foreign policy, as it will ultimatly make it more balanced than what it has been.

Powerful and incisive commentary.

[garbanzo]

As someone pointed out very early in the thread, the same was true of Irish and Polish immigrants a hundred years ago - where do you think all those "dumb Pollock" jokes came from?

As for the welfare state, note that those people who shout "Libertarian!" everytime someone brings up the free market or individual freedom should note that only one political party is calling for the complete abolition of the welfare state.

And it's not the GOP.

[garbanzo]

I guess you've haven't been here a while - I'm not a leftist by any means. I am mainly libertarian in outlook.

[Ridin' Shotgun]

I thought it was just me. This seems to be particularly true on threads having anything to do with constitutionality. Its amazing how this topic always seems to generate accusations of racism and ultimately, anti-semitism. As if one cannot be concerned about America without FIRST being racist and anti-semitic.

[Carlitos]

2 Issues here:
1. Although I do believe in expanded social services (No, I'm not a Socialist) I'll agree that no money/services (except basic health svcs.) should be given to illegal immigrants. Federal/State/Local help should go to Citizens/Residents who need it. (Like my wife, who after many years as a taxpayer is now an Enron ex-employee)
2. Those millions of hard working Americans are not loosing their jobs to illegal immigrants, they are loosing them to overseas work forces. Ask Mr. Ford why they're moving manufacturing to Mexico and he will tell you that they are made cheaper so when they bring them back and sell them in the US they can make more money. Is called Globalization. We design it, they make it , we buy it.
Is a very difficult balance. Americans want their SUVs bigger and their Gas cheaper... Are you willing to pay an unionized oil worker $35/hr. or more to produce oil in the US? Pay between $5.00 and $7.50 per Gallon? Most Americans do not.
I do feel sorry for those who can not afford education and even more for those who think they don't need it... the future is going to the very hard for them.

[ResistorSister]

Who is Petronksi? Your imaginary friend who also supports Pat's views?

[Ridin' Shotgun]

Ask Mr. Ford why they're moving manufacturing to Mexico and he will tell you that they are made cheaper so when they bring them back and sell them in the US they can make more money. Is called Globalization.

Huh? Mr. Ford was the one who shoved nafta and gatt down most Americans very unwilling throats? Patience hell, I'm going to hunt him down and throttle him .... oh, I'm too late, you say.

[Poohbah]

Wow. You have proven the old saw about throwing a stick at a pack of dogs: the one that yelps is the one you hit. Sorry 'bout that.

[garbanzo]

The pitchfork brigade is a tiny minority stuck in the past. The mainstream of America accepts people for who they are and not where they come from. Unfortunately, the Right has to fight off the perception that they are racist bigots who want to return to segregation because of the ignorant Buchanan's of the world.
