Anyone who has been keeping up with British opinion since the July 7 bombings will have noticed that "multiculturalism" is under sharp attack.

Bump!
Barone is so right. Anyone who can't discern that a society that still practices slavery, considers women property and condones cruelty to all animals except the "noble camel" is sick needs to be given an attitude adjustment with a fencepost! Multiculturalism is a pantload.
"In The Age, the Melbourne, Australia, newspaper, Pamela Bone wrote, "Perhaps it is time to say, you are welcome, but this is the way it is here." The Age 's Tony Parkinson quoted the French writer Jean Francois Revel's Cold War comment: "A civilization that feels guilty for everything it is and does will lack the energy and conviction to defend itself." Tolerating intolerance, goodhearted people are beginning to see, does not necessarily produce tolerance in turn. "
Barone does NOT have a history of getting things right, correct? Dare we hope that we're seeing a glimmer--fainter than the first crack of dawn, but better than nothing--of common sense entering this discussion from outside the realm of traditional conservatism? Dare we?

Multiculturalsim serve to isolate and whithhold the keys to entry and success in a society by pretending to things that are not, in fact, true.
Not much of anything is truly equal, except hopefully the standing of all citizens before the law.
I always enjoy greatly the different cultures that exist side by side here in Miami. However, it is surely the obligation of our country to ensure that all who choose to immigrate here permanently be taught to understand and advocate the American traditions of individual freedom and personal liberty.
'Course, large numbers of natives don't even understand or advocate those things any more.
Multiculturalism is another bar against recognizing that there are absolute rights and wrongs. It helps the twits tell us wemust try to understand those that would slaughter us and blur the obvious - we must understand that there are those that want to slaughter us and it is OK to slaughter them first.
never apologize.....it's a sign of weakness
This is true except for the word "degenerates". Multiculturalism was a weapon from the git-go, designed to spread FUD to weaken resistance to change in the face of the clear, overwhelming superiority of Western nations and societies. If you want someone to trade his cow for a handful of beans, you have to convince him the beans are magic.
I had a date with an Iranian girl the other day who made the same point. She agreed that the moral equivalency practiced by the liberals in the west would allow the same type of thugs that ruined her country to wreak havoc over here.
Lets be realistic. Enemies of the United States are enemies of mine. But despite the pressure some liberals, socialists, Arabs and similar ilk feel from me, I am not a racist. A racist is not someone who simply criticizes you. Racism is a derogatory view of your essential nature as a human being; someone who believes that you are inferior by birth, by genetics. Usually a classic racist discriminates by skin color. I simply do not fit the definition.
An Arab is a full human being physically and spiritually. I see no division in being Arab and being the complete equal of myself or anyone else in the world.
HOWEVER, Arab culture does have major limitations which I have previously noted. Culture is not race. I can regard your culture as inferior to my own - and you are a fool if you think that qualifies me as racist. It just shows you dont know how to think, that your thinking is emotional and sloppy. That is not a racist characteristic, it is a cultural characteristic.
A sloppy mind is your fault or your cultures fault; it is not dependent on your race at all.
Just because I regard some as prone to sloppy thinking and Arabs as ineffective and fantasizing, has nothing to do with your race. Your culture makes you sloppy, your culture makes you fantasizers who cant form solid analytical images of the real world as it actually exists.
Arabs have a mind set which is due to culture. This mindset is not racial - it is cultural. Your culture has conditioned you to hate the Jews. This is inferior - patently so, obviously so - and it reveals you are driven by jealousy of the Jews, envy of the Jews, and FEAR of the Jews.
You are jealous and envious and afraid of the Jews because subconsciously you see that the Jews have succeeded in the same environment you have and that they are prosperous and efficient while your own societies are collapsing failures.
You are economically and socially inferior to the Jews. You hate the Jews because they make you look stupid. You are inferior to them and their economies are superior to yours. Their armies are superior to yours. They are FORTY times more powerful than all of you put together and they are one percent of your size. You ARE inferior and it hurts. You hate their talent and their success. You are standing there right next to them on the same ground with the same resources and you look like a pile of Arab crap. You hate them because they are better than you and their success shows the differences between their culture, their values, and you and yours.
And this is just one small factor. Your religion is based on the Koran and its image of reality has produced what you are. Your values are based on Islam. Your values have produced your poverty and your complete inability to claim any COMPETENCE in the real world. There isnt a single Moslem country that doesnt slobber all over itself like a retard when confronted by the 21st century.
You want to confront the West, you want to have your Greatness recognized. You are a feeble snarl of oppressive dictatorships with illiteracy and fear and ignorance as your heritage.
The West feels SORRY FOR YOU. The only dependable feeling anyone has for an Arab is pity. And that isnt when we find you murdering children for money like a Shaheed. How much money was Saddam paying for dead Moslem children with bombs strapped to their guts?
You have had a rub-rump wank-sucking-pervert like Arafat who was a duplicitous thug idolized as a role model. Show me an Arab hero. You dont have a single individual in your whole culture today who inspires anyone with anything except disgust and contempt and pity.
You are impotent people. It is not your race. It is your culture. Your values produce failure. Your entire reality is an escape from responsibility and a fleeing from achievement.
Dont tell me about your financial future either. Your veneer of modernity is about a millimeter thick. It can vanish as soon as the West doesnt supply you with spare parts or repair people.
You didnt invent it and you cant fix it. You are a nutless, pointless, ghost town waiting-to-happen society.
And acting like you are our equals has nothing to do with your race or mine it has everything to do with the fact that your culture is totally incompetent.
You are fifty to a hundred years behind the West. Politically you are back in the 1930s Technologically you are in the fourteenth century and you dont produce anything modern. You buy our culture and think that entitles you to some equality. You are parasites on our abilities.
Socially and economically you are waiting to die. You seek to challenge the values of the West. You attacked the United States. You want nothing more than to have atomic weapons so we will respect you.
You might as well stick a modern pistol in your mouth and pull the trigger if you think that we will ever allow you to have atomic weapons. We will go to war with the first Islamic nation which has an atomic we dont control. It is a sure guarantee of a certain war. You are not fit to stand beside us as equals.
The Jews are, but you arent.
The Jews are like us - they are also different from us - but all things considered they are our kind and you arent. You are Arabs and you produce nothing of any value - politically, socially, economically, or philosophically.
You are a dead society with dead values. That isnt a racist statement. Its an autopsy of your culture. And I don't hate you - I just don't want you to rot in my gutter so I have to smell it. Go someplace else to die.

Bingo. But for some reason it's "insensitive" for people to try to wean blacks from the ghetto culture, and yet "racist" to harshly judge those who buy into it.
Wrong. Michael Barone is the best political analyst bar none. Brit frequently has him on FNC. His election 2004 coverage on Fox was excellent.
