Accommodation of Islam leads to the creation of a hostile nation-state within your own borders. It leads to Pakistan, a violent Islamic takeover of a section of India. I fully expect to see this replicated within Germany, the UK and Sweden over the next decade or so as Islamic imperialism is accommodated by leftist stupidity in the name of "diversity".

Which way the West will flip depends largely upon eliminating the influence of the left's identity politics. If it continues to gain hold there's a real danger that Western societies will self-destruct by welcoming and accommodating a hostile culture whose explicit aim is the destruction of other cultures and the establishment of a world-wide Islamic Caliphate.

There's a core of American citizens who will fight that to their last breath. The result will be internal cultural violence which will continue as leftist traitors to their nation attempt to voice diversity values upon an unwilling populace.

At this point, I have to mention the sheer, utter lunacy of bringing in a group whose fundamental creed is amongst the most violent on Earth into a free society which has the easiest access to weapons in the world. Islamic society is fundamentally unstable - Muslim men are astonishingly weak and easy to bait with attacks upon their manhood. There's a large proportion of Western women who don't like them. What do you think is going to happen when Islamic weakness meets Western values including women's independence? Violence. A lot of violence.

It's only through corruption that Hillary Clinton sits atop the DNC throne. The left's commitment to ideological purity won't allow for an honest politician, which is why they absolutely would not allow Bernie to be elected. The result is an electorate who largely despises their own candidate and will have little tolerance for her when she inevitably goes back on her campaign promises and statements of intent. Trump's self-destruction is pretty much ensuring her election but I doubt she'll be re-elected.

Still, that gives her four years to continue promoting leftist identity politics and the damage she'll do during that time will be considerable. The question is how short a leash she'll be on during that time and at this point, I think our best hope is that the Democrat's almost inevitable majority in the House and Senate is so slim that it relies upon the Bernie candidates.

As for the rest of the West? Germany is fucked. France, less so - they've seen what Muslims do when let into their country. England is gone, there'll be a major terrorist attack within 5 years and the government will probably respond by blaming the population and making more accommodations to Islam.

Nationalism is rising in Australia, there's considerable opposition to the selling of assets to foreigners - particularly the Chinese - and there's considerable anti-Islamic sentiment in the country - long may it continue. I think distance and stubbornness will make the Islamic conquest of Australia somewhat more difficult.

(Although at this point, I'll mention that opposition to Islam should be political. It should be expressed at the ballot box. It should not be spitting at a Muslim in the street, at calling them names, at ostracising them in social gatherings or committing violence against them as individuals. It should be opposing motions from Muslims aimed at accommodating their religion. It should be expressed in PTA groups, community groups and anywhere else where Islam tries to gain special accommodation and increase its foothold in our society.)

Part of the problem here is that so many people are utterly ignorant of cultural warfare and what it means for their society. America, for example, is a nation of immigrants bound together by shared values, shared notions of what it means to be American. They come for the promise that America holds for them - partially seduced by the idea of lifestyle, but ultimately to buy into that shared idea of what being American means.

Muslims don't. They come because they see a country they can try and take for their own. They see weakness in openness. Accommodation is a foothold through which they try and strangle American values. They see a rich country which should belong to Islam in the name of Allah. And their ultimate goal is the elimination of American values and their replacement with Islamic dogma. The building of mosques, the suing for special accommodations, the exploitation of American freedom so they can spread their creed - this is why they're here.

The Left's approach is to use the Islamic version of the "Magical Negro" trope. Instead you have the "Magical Muslim" who only speaks truth, never lies to your face and just wants to live in peace. In the Left's mind, Muslims aren't fully human because they never lie and deceive. Only people who speak loudly lie and deceive - anyone who speaks with a soft voice is IMPLICITLY trustworthy.

It goes without saying, that the Left really aren't too swift on the uptake and aren't all that smart when it comes to reading people.

Ironically, the struggle for America's soul is between the insane identity politics of the Left and the racism and nationalist fervour of the right. Neither are particularly appealing and at this point, they're both making the Libertarians look good. However ultimately the theocratic foundation of Islam ties right in with the autocratic beliefs of the Left and so the struggle against the Left is inherently the struggle against Islam - and vice versa. The Left believes that government should enforce "appropriate" behaviour at the point of a gun and their totalitarian approach to society makes them dangerous.

The struggle against the cancer that is feminism is one part of the struggle against the Left. By opposing feminism we can begin to topple the religious belief of the Left and start having debates which hinge on evidence and reason, rather than "feelings". It's only through reasoned debate and examination of evidence that our societies can make wise long-term decisions - and that will not happen while we tolerate a political movement opposed to dealing with reality.

Oh, I don't expect much of a response, because a fair amount of you are rabid Leftists and are thus - how can I put it in your terms - "intellectually challenged".



Thank you for taking the time and effort, to express your thoughts on this topic.
I rather envy your writing skills.
I prefer reading how people personally FEEL about subjects, not what other people have written.
{Link for this, link for that, long copy and paste newspaper articles, etc.}


I enjoy reading whatever you write, even when I disagree with you, I respect the
effort that you often take when articulating "your thoughts" on topics.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion in what is currently still a free society.
You have given me a lot to ponder.
I also ask myself why super rich countries like Saudi Arabia, Quatar, UAE, have not done A LOT more to take in refugees.
I looked up some recent numbers, and the numbers seemed extremely low considering their resources and geographic locations.
Again, thank you for your thoughtful response.

I mainly come here to read opinions/with a few facts thrown in [8|].
The majority of this topic, was my opinion.
Who can predict the future?
I'm capable of easily researching any topic in the world on the Internet.
In fact you can easily find a million/billion sources, to back up any point you care to make.
I'm as capable of using Internet search engines as well as the next man!

I want to make a few points that I never see addressed here.
I don't want to debate whose "fault" it is that millions of Muslims are fleeing into the West.

I want to discuss the idea of acceptance, that the West will be completely and forever changed by what is occurring.
Fact is, they are fleeing, even the men of fighting age don't want to stay in the countries they are fleeing, and few if any of them
will ever want to return.

The western world will be changed forever.
I agree with a lot of what Awareness states, and I agree with a lot of what his distractors are also saying.
** Both sides can be right!**

The problem I have with both sides, is no-one has any idea how things are going to be in the long run.

The point is we don't know what is going to happen in 50-100 years, and there is not much that can be done to change it.
I don't need to quote anyone, a link for this or that, at some point people must use common sense.
The whole damn world is drastically changing before your eyes, do you need a link for that?

Of course, there are going to be so many cultural clashes, that eventually they won't be news worthy.
I fully expect the issue of Muslim rights to become eventual daily chat.
We can expect that the states will be sued to provide alternative Muslim schools for children, etc.
It's going to be par for the course, so please don't be surprised.
Oh it's going to happen.

One thing that needs to be stated that we WILL become used to occasional terrorist activity, we have to.
I believe 95% of those fleeing their countries, are probably peaceful.
To say that you know for a fact that none of them are terrorists or prone to becoming radicalized makes you a liar, because no one knows how this is going to end up, because we have never had millions of middle eastern Muslims fleeing their countries before.

We do know that every now and then there WILL be terrorist activities by those that are {terrorists, radicalized, disenfranchised, disillusioned, or mentally ill}.

They are here, millions more are coming, the West will be FOREVER changed, almost none of them want to go back from the countries they are fleeing, and we must get used to a new reality.

I'm not saying it's good or bad, I'm saying that it is a new reality, and the only thing you can be sure of is,
the West will be changed forever.

To say the West will not be changed, makes you disengenious at best.
The change is just starting, and it's a done deal.

All I care about is what they bring to the cultural table, and so far, I can say that falafel sandwiches are doing more for me than computer chip noise blasted at highest volume into my car while waiting at the traffic light, or when just walking, certainly more than yankee hotdogs, at the moment.

"I also ask myself why super rich countries like Saudi Arabia, Quatar, UAE, have not done A LOT more to take in refugees. "

For one they are smart. Saudi Arabia is allied with the US which means those people are enemies. Yuo would have to be totally supid to let them, but some are.

For two, they are not the ones who bombed countries back to the stone age creating these refugees.

Syrians are not fleeing their country because they want to. Their country has been destroyed by a conflict that was directly instigated by the US and it's allies in the region, an initiative of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. This war is 5 years old yet the US media refuse to do their job and tell the American people who is responsible for this conflict and why it was started.

I'm not sure if you read my OP or not.
I know I can't control where threads go.
This thread is not so much about the WHY it is happening, dozens of threads on that topic.
I started this thread to get other people's OPINIONS on the fact, that western civilization as we used
to know it, is being changed.

Typical 'hot taek' that the Domos didn't do the job well enough in cleaning up the mess of the Republicos.

Hey, sorry not to fulfill expectations, there.

Who invaded in 1992? Who invaded in 2001? Who were the oil companies and oil services companies behind it?

The Democrats are a sorry bunch nowadays, but pardon me for not finding 'reassurance' in the Republicans' platform of promoting that 'freedom' is defined by everybody being able to fart loudly and proudly in public as sign of 'strength.'

Which is all they've done for more than thirty years.





blnymph -> RE: Middle East & West - Western society forever changed (8/15/2016 6:19:58 AM)

"Middle East" and "West" are co-existing for quite a while, in peaceful terms as well as in conflicts (since the 8th century if you disregard the conquest of the Visigoth empire), and have been influencing each other since. So lots of mutual changes have already happened, and others will happen.

There have been migrations and population transfers in the past, in greater numbers in the 20th century: Decolonisation of France, the UK, Italy brought northern Africans to France, Somalis to Italy, Indian Muslims and Sikh to Britain, worker migrations brought Turks and Kurds to Germany, Switzerland, the Scandinavian countries, the collapse of Yugoslavia Bosnian and Albanian muslims. Many live hereabouts in 2nd or 3rd generation now. So what.

How this is part of everyday life some of you beyond the pond might not have a clue. With some it makes me think the less clue the wider open their mouths. Most of the time everyday life is not a problem. (Thus no fodder for headlines and telly tales)


For those who wonder why some of the super-rich Arab countries are not helping their "Arab brothers" ... -first because Syria was/is a multi-ethnic state with a comparatively numerous population and many non-Arab minorities. Secondly because they are part and parties in the conflict there, financing those who serve their political interests. Look at Arab "solidarity" for Palestinians since 1948 and you have a sample what Syrian refugees would have to expect - at best. There are a few states like Lebanon who take millions of Syrian refugees, but some others with lots of petro dollars but small populations are directly interested in instability in the most populous Arab countries, Syria, Iraq, and Yemen. They are also allies of the "West." And counteracting what the "West" tries to achieve there.

Have we left out the fact that the Moors taught the Spanish numeracy and increased their literacy, back in the day?

Or that even with all the Western intrusion of the ME from the end of WWI onwards it's only in the last ten years or so that the 'chickens have come home to roost'?

According to some, like Awareness and Marini, Muslims have always been a murderous bunch, though according to the former most of them do not murder only because they are afraid to actually carry out the putative mission of their religion these last 700 years or so, relying on the 'true spirits' to do the job for them, -but only just now-, as it turns out. The Western invasions and concomitant increase in terrorism are mere coincidence, so it seems.

"How this is part of everyday life some of you beyond the pond might not have a clue."

Oh my word ...

Are you sure that such claptrap is the best way to make your point? "Some of you" exist in every country, and certainly in every culture, last I looked.


Every once in awhile, it might benefit our awareness to put down the history books and go out in the market of real life firsthand experience. There are quite a few more cultures or ethnicities than just Turks or North Africans in the US, unlike in Germany or any other European country.

Who said I was forgiving the oil companies' intrusion upon our government, to the detriment of our security?

Get a clue.

I'm not a 'forgive and forget' type of guy. I pass by the VA hospital almost every day and see all these guys going down the sidewalk with out legs, in their wheel chairs. I always feel like yelling out to them "your legs in service to Dick Cheney's bank account, what a deal!"

Of course I never do that.

How long are you going to keep making excuses for the oil companies and the fact that they have run the US State Department or British Foreign Service, and essentially, our governments, for many decades now?

Some of those do indeed exist everywhere around the globe. Contrary to you I do not type "names." Those who read these forums know them by themselves.

I took a little break from posting here, and only read what some felt the need to comment on about everything that happened in Europe within the last few weeks. And found that lots of it was ignorant biased crap. Biased by US politics mostly - and since the majority of posters here is beyond the pond but some apparently only receiving informations by their limited media of choice I felt I should put some focus on the fact that this has something to do with where they are. The net may be global, but some minds are obviously not.

This site is based in the US.

It might occur to some that the majority of input might be from citizens therein ('dabei').

I certainly agree that information in the US is limited, but I only see marginal improvement on that account from European sources.

You're not the only one. There is another, from Australia, who claims that the site is 'Americentric,' and she was speaking in approval of the poster whom she apparently did not know was from the US.

When I go to a German language site, I fully expect the aspect of view or outlook to be 'Germanocentric.'

Likewise the British.

I don't base my estimation of Sweden upon the pop group ABBA, let's put it that way.

From your source's bio:

"I spent 3 years working in the Portland, OR area for Circuit City and 4 years before that working at Regal Cinemas in downtown Portland, many of you may know me from those places. After moving to Pittsburgh I worked at Sears, now I work with Office Depot."

Hey, I worked as a projectionist for five years myself, while simultaneously working various sound jobs and other live show ventures.

I know the fact that I studied econ and history and business at the university means nothing to you or any other slobbering idiot, but those five years at the 35 mm projector are impossible to ignore, for the likes of you so easily impressed by retail cashiers as socioeconomic experts. I even ran the 70 mm film for four different movies, 6 track magnetic sound all in.

Get back to me if your source ever ran 70 mm film.

Given his resume, he was likely just a popcorn seller, and wouldn't know how to assemble the five or six reels into onto a platter with out destroying the whole thing. Just like Republicans take their version of economics as an unaware means of destruction, as befits the clueless.

But then Reagan was just a soap seller.

I can see the allure by way of semblance for simpletons like yourself.
