I understand, as best I can, through Western eyes the evil on their side. I just don’t understand why and how the Euros/West came to the point that they were so pacified, numbed, and suicidal that it allowed its own destruction. Is it our diets? Is it the history? Is it our affluence that allowed us to become physically and intellectually lazy? Is it none of these? Is it all of these and more?

Look at Rome’s fall and that will tell you exactly what’s coming and why they are where they are today. History repeating itself.

Rome eventually let all of its subjects throughout the empire have citizenship..... After that they immigrated to Rome itself turning Rome into a ‘multicultural’ city, thus destroying the original talented Roman folk who created the empire and replacing them with the multicultural rabble...... They also destroyed an real unity among the people and in society..... This should be a lesson for any who want to create a multicultural society based on ‘mass immigration.

Europe is controlled by power mad overlords. They are unelected bureaucrats and can't be stopped. They are metastasizing into a global caste of rulers and have just taken over the US by way of fiat with the Trans Pacific Partnership treaty. News is no longer news - just slippery slope propaganda. The development of the political caste system is everywhere. Rights thoughts are rewarded with cush jobs and benefits. News casters are paid hundreds of thousand of dollars to reliably say whatever they are told. A women is beheaded in Oklahoma while at work and nobody cares since the news writers drop the story.

Moslem takeover is inevitable and a beheading does not fit the narrative that everything is just fine. The goal is to keep the masses calm while they are led to slaughter. Fewer people fits in with Agenda 21 - the United Nations new World Order blueprint created by unelected bureaucrats.

There are no free and fair elections - electronic voting and stuffed ballot boxes are theatrical props. The 2016 election is already in the bag - say hello to President Hillary - why the left puts on the farce of an election is the real question.

TV and radio have influence.People don't think for themselves without being told what to think and do.

Italians, French Brits are all the same - bred for service and helpless in the face of tyrany.

Religious indifferentism.

The Enlightenment taught us to ignore religious differences. We were taught in school that the Enlightenment was good. But aside from Smith and Locke, the philosophers represent a rogues gallery:

a European intellectual movement of the late 17th and 18th centuries emphasizing reason and individualism rather than tradition. It was heavily influenced by 17th-century philosophers such as Descartes, Locke, and Newton, and its prominent exponents include Kant, Goethe, Voltaire, Rousseau, and Adam Smith.

As a high schooler, when studying the First Amendment, I remember wondering, Can a a country that tolerates all religions tolerate a religion that doesn't tolerate other religions? At the time, I was thinking of satanism. The question certainly applies to Islam.

It turns out that Jefferson didn't understand the nature of Islam, either. During the US conflict with the Barbary pirates, Jefferson sent a delegate to North Africa to speak to the caliph. The ambassador asked, "Why do you steal from us? We have no quarrel with you." The caliph said, "you are infidels. We can take what we like from you."

Jefferson was shocked and decided to read the Koran for himself.
