I think it was Dennis Praeger yesterday who was talking about how a German politician said the biggest mistake they ever made was allowing Turkish guest workers into the country. The politician stated that to save Germany , they were going to have to make German Culture the official one. The long and short of it was if you don't assimilate into the culture you would no longer be welcome. I believe that I hear they dying gasps of multiculturalism in Europe. What are the leftists in the US going to do. I hear the New York Times is deeply saddened.

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I would love to see this column as a full page ad in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Detroit, Philadelphia, New Orleans...
You get my drift.

Refute this if you can, morons!

I believe it was ex chancellor Helmut Schmidt.

When V.D. Hanson lists the sins of the elitist left, the mind reels...that we put up with it on a daily basis, while the MSM bow and scrape to the latest multicultural god and find something, anything to slam GW and America for. We stand by while millions die because of UN and Arab treachery. Now we hear on the news that Koffi Annan is hoping GW will endorse him? Let's hope there's a resounding silence from the WH.

Thank you, Victor. You always seem to NAIL the issue, and I loved "The Soul of Battle," "Carnage and Culture," and "The Western Way of War."

My good FRiend Tolik.......I always look forward to your pings but I too rarely say thanks. VDH...what a great mind.

"What is preached in the madrassas on the West Bank, in Pakistan, and throughout the Gulf is no different from the Nazi doctrine of racial hatred. What has changed, of course, is that unlike our grandfathers, we have lost the courage to speak out against it."

Not everyone, of course, but among the liberals, this is exactly true. What's worse, when someone does speak out against it--or take action as we are doing now in Iraq--they're condemned for it (by the liberals).

Once again, Victor Davis Hanson is dead on...
BRILLIANT!

"I believe it was ex chancellor Helmut Schmidt."

You are correct. I posted an article on his statement.

[jcb8199]

Great article! Thanks for posting!

It is truly heartening to have as brilliant a fellow as Hanson on our side. His analyses are always insightful, on-the-mark and deadly to the Left.

Thank you, Professor Hanson.
