| The Rape of Europe |
| 2006-10-26 |
| The German author Henryk M. Broder recently told the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant (12 October) that young Europeans who love freedom, better emigrate. Europe as we know it will no longer exist 20 years from now. Whilst sitting on a terrace in Berlin, Broder pointed to the other customers and the passers-by and said melancholically: “We are watching the world of yesterday.” Europe is turning Muslim. As Broder is sixty years old he is not going to emigrate himself. “I am too old,” he said. However, he urged young people to get out and “move to Australia or New Zealand. That is the only option they have if they want to avoid the plagues that will turn the old continent uninhabitable.” Many Germans and Dutch, apparently, did not wait for Broder’s advice. The number of emigrants leaving the Netherlands and Germany has already surpassed the number of immigrants moving in. One does not have to be prophetic to predict, like Henryk Broder, that Europe is becoming Islamic. Just consider the demographics. The number of Muslims in contemporary Europe is estimated to be 50 million. It is expected to double in twenty years. By 2025, one third of all European children will be born to Muslim families. Today Mohammed is already the most popular name for new-born boys in Brussels, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and other major European cities. Broder is convinced that the Europeans are not willing to oppose islamization. “The dominant ethos,” he told De Volkskrant, “is perfectly voiced by the stupid blonde woman author with whom I recently debated. She said that it is sometimes better to let yourself be raped than to risk serious injuries while resisting. She said it is sometimes better to avoid fighting than run the risk of death.” In a recent op-ed piece in the Brussels newspaper De Standaard (23 October) the Dutch (gay and self-declared “humanist”) author Oscar Van den Boogaard refers to Broder’s interview. Van den Boogaard says that to him coping with the islamization of Europe is like “a process of mourning.” He is overwhelmed by a “feeling of sadness.” “I am not a warrior,” he says, “but who is? I have never learned to fight for my freedom. I was only good at enjoying it.” As Tom Bethell wrote in this month’s American Spectator: “Just at the most basic level of demography the secular-humanist option is not working.” But there is more to it than the fact that non-religious people tend not to have as many children as religious people, because many of them prefer to “enjoy” freedom rather than renounce it for the sake of children. Secularists, it seems to me, are also less keen on fighting. Since they do not believe in an afterlife, this life is the only thing they have to lose. Hence they will rather accept submission than fight. Like the German feminist Broder referred to, they prefer to be raped than to resist. “If faith collapses, civilization goes with it,” says Bethell. That is the real cause of the closing of civilization in Europe. Islamization is simply the consequence. The very word Islam means “submission” and the secularists have submitted already. Many Europeans have already become Muslims, though they do not realize it or do not want to admit it. Some of the people I meet in the U.S. are particularly worried about the rise of anti-Semitism in Europe. They are correct when they fear that anti-Semitism is also on the rise among non-immigrant Europeans. The latter hate people with a fighting spirit. Contemporary anti-Semitism in Europe (at least when coming from native Europeans) is related to anti-Americanism. People who are not prepared to resist and are eager to submit, hate others who do not want to submit and are prepared to fight. They hate them because they are afraid that the latter will endanger their lives as well. In their view everyone must submit. This is why they have come to hate Israel and America so much, and the small band of European “islamophobes” who dare to talk about what they see happening around them. West Europeans have to choose between submission (islam) or death. I fear, like Broder, that they have chosen submission – just like in former days when they preferred to be red rather than dead. |

| #21 It's fight now or flee or die at the hand of master Islam. But multiculturalism will certainly solve all of these petty differences, non? |

| #20 As those who stay become older and rely on the welfare state to survive, the muzzies expected to keep the economy going will be ducking real work as they do so well, and removing old Europeans from the competing welfare rolls. To stay is to die by starvation. It's fight now or flee or die at the hand of master Islam. |

| #19 There's a big problem being overlooked here, somebody has to work, or there's no taxes to pay that welfare. I suspect this is a self-curing problem, as more Muslime cone in, and more citizens depart, a point is reached where welfare simply cannot be paid. Then promptly we have another Zimbobwe, inflation at several thousand percent as the Government tries the printing-press solution (Print more and more money) to pay the "Voters" (welfare recipients) that keep the Politicians in Office. This leads to starvation, and suddenly the population is smaller, both from people getting fed up and moving to another "Welfare State" and folks simply ceasing to live, (Crime is rampant) Wash, rinse, repeat. I think we'd better keep a firm eye on Zim-Bob to see exactly how Europe will play out post-horrendous inflation. |

| #18 There will be a Euro anti-muslim backlash. Will it be too little and/or too late? Probably. |

| #16 I would suggest that having concern about Europe is in all of our best interests. Lest we forget, France and the UK are nuclear powers with intercontinental delivery mechanisms. If these countries go muzzie, then we are in that much more real danger. When will the spasm occur? Better question, will the spasm occur? Or will the islamization process be so gradual that by the time the will for the spasm comes, it will be too late. Me thinks the latter possibility is most likely. |

| #15 Whetehr you have concern for Europeans or not, the second shoe here is what will happen to those Europeans who having failed to do anything about their own plight decide it is easier to flee to Australia and other places only to expedite the fall of their new homes by bringing their cancer w/ them and duplicating the feat in their new homelands. |

| #14 If the appeasers want to survive, they'll have to convert. Otherwise, just submitting won't guarantee survival. Anytime anyone wants to kill the infidel, it will be justified. If the "blond woman" wants to convert, she'd better get used to functioning in a bag. |

This is a perfect summation of what Western European - EU "leadership" as wrought. For the moment I despise them even more then I do the muslims and that's saying a lot. |

| #12 Judeao-Christian faith and principles were the bulwark that preserved Europe from the Islamic flood for centuries. Broder is right. Without it, they are doomed. |

| #9 Where will they imigrate to? First to Mexico till they can get a coyote to get them across the border, along with the other 10 million, just in time for George's amnesty program. Aught to fit right in the ethnic neighborhoods in Chicago, Milwaukee, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Davenport, Minneapolis, etc. IÂ’d skip Kalifornia unless they come from Barcelona or really eastern Europe like Ulaanbaatar. :) |

| #6 Honestly though, their next step is to start getting into politics as their numbers grow. Then they can really fast-track the islamization of europe once they have access to lawmaking abilities. |

| #5 Europe can find my sympathy in the dictionary. It's in there somewhere, between shit and syphilis. |

| #4 what a scathing indictment. And so, not only do we see the death of liberty and tolerance, so too do we see the demise of European intellectualism, art, science and technology. In other words, in 25 years, European culture will be no more. |

| #3 The German author Henryk M. Broder recently told the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant (12 October) that young Europeans who love freedom, better emigrate. It is sad that one feels like they have to abandon their county. Where will they imigrate to? There must be better approaches than that--how about restricting immigration? How about requiring jobs of the immigrants instead of providing welfare? How about the muzzies getting rid of their separateness and move towards assimilation? Muzzies in these countries have too much free time on their hands. Witness the bombings in Britain, Spain, and the car burnings in France, etc. This is friggin blackmail by a minority group of the majority group. This is simply abdication of your country. |

| #2 I have sympathy for europe, at least in that sense that it is where I keep all my stuff. |
