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 worlds people will be of European descent. One third of Europes 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 Russias 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 Israels Jewish population two-to-one.
Americas 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 Americas 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 Americas dominant culture, and the iconoclasts of that counter-culture are systematically demolishing Americas history and heritage.
Under Political Correctness, Americas 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 Gibsons 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 OConnor, and any realistic portrayal of the America South, including Harper Lees To Kill a Mockingbird, are now forbidden.
Even the great museums on Americas Mall, to introduce school children to the greatness and glory of Americas 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 nations 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.

I'm curious to know your definition of "racist".? Here is the definition of racist that too many Americans (including many on this thread) adhere to:
RACIST: Any white person who dares to speak factually about racial issues.

Oh, I guess you found me out so I'll come clean - I'm an extraterrestrial as well. We've secretly come to FR to undermine American civilization so that conquest of Earth will be made that much easier.

The reality is that only Westerners believe in the concept of a color blind society. The concept of a color blind society was good enough for the Founding Fathers...so it is good enough for me.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Our immigration problem is not based in the fact that people of color come to America and desire to be citizens...our problem is based in the fact that our government officials have not protected America against immigration law breakers.

Speaking "factually" usually means unsupported or patently false slanders of entire groups of people who happen to not look like you. If I were to "speak factually" about whites in the same manner than some of you do - you guys would be up arms - and justifiably so.

"If EVERYTHING in the Libertarian platform were to be implemented, illegal immigrants would leave pretty rapidly, because without public assistance, this is a LOUSY country to be poor in." If EVERYTHING in the Libertarian platform were to be implemented, there wouldn't BE illegal immigrants, because the Libertarian platform doesn't have immigration limits. Mark (Libertarian) P.S. Back when America WAS close(r) to being libertarian--prior to the New Deal--America was a GREAT place to be poor in (that's why so many poor people came to America). It was a great place to be poor, because poor people had the FREEDOM to become rich.

Pat does have a valid point. Nations are generally formed around some ethnic core. They can assimilate newcomers, and the understanding of what the core is may change as new immmigrants arrive. But if the ethnic core becomes a minority, the possibility of fragmentation arises, particularly if different ethnic groups are concentrated in different geographic areas. Even if fragmentation is not an issue, interethnic frictions increase, because it's understood that cultural hegemony is at stake. I don't know if we can escape this fate. The US may be the last of the great Western empires to break up, and as with so many of them -- Britain, France, Spain, Russia -- the break up will continue in the homeland what began overseas. The fact that we find it so hard to discuss this may be a sign that we don't have a clue as to how to prevent it. I suppose it could also be seen as a sign that our assimilative powers are -- for now -- still working.

Who is Petronksi? ?
You argued that Buchanan is a racist based on the idea that bringing up racial issues is racism. You even failed in your reading comprehension is using a dictionary to make your point. Kinda silly to respond to me as a spell checker on someones name dont you think?
>> Racist: discriminatory especially on the basis of race ...[Making distinctions.] Every one of these statements are based on racial distinctions and racial issues.-- blithers ResistorSister
It may go to follow that discrimination based upon racial distinctions is racism but it does not go to follow that racial distinctions or issues are discrimination and racist.

The costs to employers is low which is why they hire them or move the jobs elsewhere if possible. This is why markets are hated by would-be know-it-alls - they are unflinchingly honest about what people really value and how much they really value it. In terms of manufacturing this is a well known myth, and is one of the reasons why relocating plants offshore has had mixed success. Labor as a percentage of manufacturing costs ranges around 15%, so at the most you might gain a 10% reduction in overall cost. Add in all the additional expenses of a broken supply chain, cultural problems, and other related issues, and often you actually end up losing money.
To: Mark Bahner
Good point.
But that didn't stop the predecessors of Buchanan from saying that America was going to the proverbial place of eternal theological damnation in the proverbial handbasket because it was letting in too many people of the "wrong" ethnicity.

If the company loses money, it will either (a) go back to the good ol' USA, or go out of business.
Markets tend to be self-correcting because of this issue.
We made a country where no sane person would want to run a business. Now, we complain when all the sane businesspersons go elsewhere to run their businesses. Am I the only guy who sees the logical disconnect here?

I yet to see a factual statement coming from the race-baiters. As mentioned above, Pat doesn't seem to realize that a large proportion of the "brown" immigration is Christian, and if anyone is propping up Christianity in the West it's immigrants. Pat also complains about the "brown" people's not reading Shakespeare - I can guarantee you that any given immigrant from India has read more Shakespeare than an American high school or college grad. But Pat goes right on to imply that only white people worship Jesus and study Western culture.

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. You couldn't be more wrong. The Right has to fight off the perception that they are racist bigots .... because we demand that immigrants should at least be required to APPLY for the multiplicity of services they want, which are funded by our hijacked earning, IN ENGLISH. The right has to fight off the perception that we are racist bigots because we demand that immigrants must at LEAST be able to communicate IN ENGLISH before they can VOTE away our sovereignty. Too much for you, right globogarbanzo?

You stated that 'all the farmers are gone.'
I said, 'back up your facts.'
Since you don't know what you are talking about try this site to see how many farmers there are in Michigan.
Educate yourself.

I'm not sure how to respond to you. I know you feel Buchanan's views are objectionable. I don't.
Despite the validity of Buchanan's points, his views have been marginalized to the point that I don't think anyone is going to confuse them with the Republicans. It is this very point that I lamented last year. The Republicans disagree with views that simply cannot be refuted. For me that is a problem.
