if anyone wants a good but depressing read on the outlook for integration I recommend Douglas Murray's 'The Strange Death of Europe'. He's a really good writer and put a lot of effort into putting together a coherent narrative behind the shifts that have been happening in Europe since the post-ww2 rebuilding period.

Thank you for this. I will check it oot

It was because of Palestine and Bu$h. Very problematic to insinuate that Islam and gender-based violence are connected imho.

I don't think the US blowing a few trillion to vaporize some desert folk even further into the stone age because a scant amount of Euros got into a tragic plumbing accident would be much of a blip in the history books for any country that mattered in the future.

If only there was some middle ground between drone strikes and mass Islamic immigration. But there isn't, it's one or the other and we have to choose.

That's never gonna happen, manufacturing will get too expensive in china and the big corporates are going to need a whole other third world region to take advantage of.

No, instead we just financed a 10 year $350 billion weapons deal with Saudi so they can that for us.

It's routine for dozens of people to die in stampedes in the UK:

I wonder (I can't bear to look) if in their quest for alternative root causes, anyone cited the stampede at the Future concert in Brooklyn just two days ago as an example? Or would this have veered too close to logic and reality?

So what's the "best" reaction? They stop immigration and try to enforce some kind of integration policy?

I dunno, follow the example of another religious figure and turn the other cheek? Try not to invade or meddle in the politics & stability of other countries, so if they collapse into hellish civil war they at least can't (rationally) blame us for loving with them? Disengage with the clash-of-civilizations, engage with the slow westernization that slowly makes people feel like they'd be a lot better in more liberal nation, and gently caress it they can't all emigrate so they might as well throw out the emirs and try for something better at home? (And while we're at it, keep the western world looking great by rolling back the inequality that's making our half of the world look more like their half of the world, ruled by a fraction so rich they're kings in all but name?)


Basically, look at every major decision we've made in the last 16 years and do the opposite?

Actually, I talked this over with Satan and we agreed that the right course of action is to put more boots on the ground. Conquer Syria properly instead of these halfassed drone strikes we're doing

Then build huge american/european mosques all over the place with your own religious recruiters who hog up all the youth before ISIS and then create a holy muslim army that muslims from all over the world want to join. Then use that army to police the middle east

They are directly attacking the younger demographics for the purpose of outbreeding us, and becoming dominant in our society. It is time to take a stand, the democratic process won't help.

We need to stop relying on the system to save us, we need to stop being domesticated slaves.

quote:

We need to start seeing ourselves as a group, as an ethnic group, we are English, we are Scottish, we are Welsh, and we are white! And it is we specifically who are under attack, and unless we can find solidarity again, and realise that we have a right to exist, to our own native lands, to our own heritage, and to our own culture, we will fail.

Murdering young girls and women is as low as you can go. Islam is a sick cult that should be banned and all Muslims should be deported. No Muslims, No Murders of Innocent people. Gutless liberals are destroying western civilization. Which liberals would be happy if their daughter just got murdered or maimed by flying nails? According economist Martin Armstrong a full out Islamic/Christian War could happen by 2034 from a cyclical perspective.
