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...

but the FACT that no Establishment voices have been uttering the straight goods on these and many other pressing matters FOR YEARS legitimizes Buchanan's platform, good and bad.

And that is not good. :*(

Agree!

[11th Earl of Mar]

Wonderwhy you didn't throw in Brokaw, Jennings, Rather or Larry King I'm sure they must have writted a book along the way.

OK, I'll bite. Buchanan is as qualified as Brokaw, Jennings, Rather and even Barney the Dinasaur to be president of the United States and leader of the free world.

Laws are man-made rules, they can change, and they can be interpreted differently. You have never exceeded the speed limit?

[Age of Reason]

So we should teach only the history that makes people do what you want them to do? Or even change the history books to say what we want?

History is a case of he said, she said.

Even the theories of hard science, which rest on more rigorous proof than ever we can subject history to, stand only for a moment.

You teach the version of history that makes your society strongest.

Teach a version that weakens your society, and your society perishes.

<<"In the 1920s we had the end of war, in the 60s the end of poverty, and in the 80s the end of history. Stupid predictions never cease."....bla bla.... >>

Not a history buff, I take it.

>> Racist: discriminatory especially on the basis of race ...[Making distinctions.] Every one of these statements are based on racial distinctions and racial issues.

The "making distinctions" goes hand in hand with discriminatory on that definition. Racial issues does not equal racism. Going from making distinctions to discriminatory is a jump.

racism: belief that some races of men are by nature superior to others: discrimination based upon such belief.

racial: of, relating to or based on race: existing or occurring between human races.

AHHH the dictionary wars have started.

Petronski you accuse Buchanan of racism based upon what?

[garbanzo]

Here's the thing - most individual's decisions on reproduction have nothing to do with the needs of the Volk as many would like to think. The decision to have children is based on individual needs and wants at a given point in time. By and large, the benefit of having kids today is primarily emotional (which I am not saying is a bad thing mind you) rather than partly economic and social as it has been in the past. Children do cost money to raise and many people would rather spend their earnings on other things or defer their child-rearing to a point where they can afford it.

In order to analyze the issue properly requires that people not look things ideologically, but rather in the light of how people make choices and what factors, then and now influenced the choices they made and make today.

[11th Earl of Mar]

Still not facts to back up your statements? I have given you plenty of time.

"Yo' time is up!"

doing much of the difficult agricultural work that Americans choose to avoid.

Its not just agri-business any more, Dr. Many of the jobs they take merely reflect the greed of employers. Construction is a good example. Jobs that paid 15.00 to 20.00 per hour 15 years ago are now paying 6.00 to 8.00 per hour and even the foremen are generally bi-lingual, so as to be able to communicate with both the crew and the business owner.

[stuartcr]

Service and agricultural jobs are never attractive. I would hate to pay $15.00 for a hamburger just so the kid that cooked it can buy a new DVD.

How cognizant you are of the enormity of the Enron scandal remains unknown, however, Kenneth Lay of Enron is Bush's chief financial backer.

LOL! Like the mainstream media, you try to make Lay stick to Bush like glue.

As has been shown by more astute FReepers than I, Enron was in bed with the Democrats when it was experiencing its greatest growth.

If Lay gave money to the Catholic Church, you'd say the Pope was compromised somehow, too, I suspect.

[Age of Reason]

Freedom is indeed our highest value

Yes, and the greatest of luxuries.

"They have nothing to do with one another: A tariff is something you levy on foreign goods while an income tax is a tax on domestic income. "

What have they to do with one another? Try this, American business are handicapped with income taxes, real estate taxes, increased costs because of government regulation - all of which are reflected in the price. While foreign goods comes in tax-free and, in fact, can be subsidized by their governments. The American business horse is carrying the government handicap on his back. We need a tariff to equalize the horse handicaps.

Now how about sticking to the book?

[Joe Hadenuf]

Next time, try and stay focused. Run along now.

[Carlitos]

But there are many other problems... Let's assume that the Immigration issue is solved.
How would you address the fact that Union Labor is so expensive... Gas at $.85 on US produced Oil? Don't think so...

[Gelato]

Japan would be a good test case -- if he includes "Japan" as a Western nation then he is not speaking primarily in terms of "racial and geographical lines".

Good point. It would certainly be interesting to see if Buchanan includes Japan in "the West." If so, he should value Japan's population growth just as much as the birthrates in US and Europe.

But I don't hold out much hope for Buchanan doing this, since the article eludes to Asia's population boom being a bad thing.

In my opinion, it would be better to just leave race and geography out of it. Why not focus on the principles of freedom and rights? If our goal should be simply to preserve western civilization, as Buchanan seems to propose, there would be no basis on which to exclude communism and socialism, or any other ills of the West.

[stuartcr]

Your realistic solution would be?

[AlGone2001]

This is just another reason why I'm glad that this baby never became POTUS. We needed a real man-someone who knows how to encourage us through tough times.

Buchanan is simply the living book tour, and some apparantly love to finance the wimp-thus becoming one themselves.
