WHAT WILL CAUSE THE DOWNFALL OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION?

1. RADICAL ISLAM & RADICAL LIBERALS

2. POOR EDUCATION

SAID ANOTHER WAY: Since academia is run by liberals who could not be of any use to society being productive, our youth are taught by people who live in a bubble of THEORETICAL living, while the rest of us participate in ACTUAL living. Since the education system infects the minds of our kids from the very beginning with the liberal ideology, it takes a few years of them living in the real world upon graduation to figure out that liberals belong in asylums. Unfortunately by the time their brains are fully developed with actual worldly experience, most of the youth vote for liberal candidates (at least until seeing the Obama experiment first hand – that is destined to change for a while). 

Liberals, sometimes referred to as “Progressives,” have no concept of economic policy. They believe in thefailed model of Keynesian Economics, which is a historical guarantee for economic failure. One look at nations throughout history that adopted the same economic model should yield a rather obvious common ending… FINANCIAL COLLAPSE UNDER THE COUNTRY’S OWN WEIGHT.

The one simple rule that cannot be overlooked under an economic model of redistribution, is that “sooner or later, you always run out of other peoples’ money.” Liberals might know that if they weren’t the ones running academia, but the liberal their re-written versions of history are all politically correct instead of factually correct, liberals don’t have the foggiest idea that what they THINK are bold NEW ideas, are ACTUALLY as WORN OUT as a cross country runner’s socks. Without fail, liberals always convince themselves (or their voters anyway), “It will be different this time.”

UH, NO… IT WON’T!

Am I the only one who remembers how close Sean Penn was with the former President of Venezuela before he died? “If only he U.S. was more like Venezuela, we’d have a chance at prosperity” was the message Sean and his Libtard friends would share ad nauseam while bashing Bush at every opportunity. Maybe you haven’t noticed, but Venezuela is not circling the drain the way the United States is. No, they’ve akready gone DOWN the drain ALL the way. People in Venezuela are so broke and hungry, there has to be a BLACK MARKET even for EGGS! Anyone remember Greece? It’s always the same with these left wing nuts. Politicians promise voters tons of FREE STUFF based on class warfare to get their votes, then those same politicans go ridiculously deep into debt trying to fulfill their promises. Then inevitably comes the financial collapse.

Since the same youth vote that helped get Obama into office is older now, broke, living at home with their parents, and unemployed in large bunbers, their vote for the Democrats is probably GONE for a while, so Obama went after a new voting block… Illegal Immigrants. Sure, all the reasons Obama (or any other liberal) SAY that legalizing the immigrants is best for America sound GREAT… There’s just one problem…  none of it is true. Liberals are forever reminding us that we are a nation of immigrants… blah blah. Yes, we ARE a nation of immigrants, but I have a question for liberals: ”Why was immigration so popular and BENEFICIAL to America UNTIL around 1920 when compared with immigration today? The answer is VERY simple.

IMMIGRATION IS GREAT! 

MASS IMMIGRATION TO A WELFARE STATE IS A TIME BOMB!

Finally who can forget the liberal obsession with fighting ANY and ALL things traditional. Up becomes Down. Down become Up. Dogs and Cats start living together. It’s mass hysteria. Liberals sustain their existence by making sure they have at least one finger lodged in someone’s eye socket at all times. They maintain the belief that since everyone wasn’t given an equal amount of common sense, and since common sense cannot be redistributed, NO ONE can exercise any. That is one of the CENTRAL PILLARS of the liberal ideology. As a result of common sense being as rare as the Hope Diamond when it comes to liberals, radical Islam is permitted to grow and continue their march all across the globe under the flag of “tolerance.” Jihadists cut our heads off, we apologize. Makes sense right?

Our allies think our leader is a total bitch… and they are correct… he is… so when radical Islam marches into Europe, we will not honor our treaties with our allies (UH, ISRAEL? HELLO?). You can bet your bottom dollar Obama will honor our climate change treaties with nations completely ignoring us though, but he will NOT honor a treaty to come to the aid of an ally, even if we had the money, but that’s a moot point anyway. Once we are totally broke AND we have no allies left, THEN radial Islam will come for us.

Fred Singer writes: My background is basically European — and more specifically, Western European.  I have lived and worked in many of those countries, and I know most of the major cities intimately — from Stockholm in the north, Newcastle, London, Paris, The Hague, Munich, Vienna, to Rome and Erice, Sicily in the south.  I have also spent several months in Moscow and in Jerusalem as a guest of academic institutions.

 

ECONOMIC SUICIDE

The ongoing economic suicide of Europe is based on a faulty understanding of the climate issue by most Western politicians and on their extreme policy response, based on emotion rather than logic and science.  The major European economies have reacted irrationally to contrived, unjustified fear of imagined global-warming disasters

Perhaps I should explain that the climate has not been warming for the past 18 years — and even if it had been warming, it would be no disaster.  The EU wants to cut emissions of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide, a natural plant-fertilizer, by 40% within 15 years — by 2030.  This insane drive to replace energy sources from fossil fuels that release plant-friendly CO2 into the atmosphere has led to greatly increased costs of energy.  As is well understood, such actions not only hurt economic growth, but they increase poverty levels and therefore threaten the social fabric of these nations. 

There are some exceptions. of course: France and Belgium rely heavily on nuclear energy; Austria and Norway rely heavily on hydro.  Poland has actively resisted the general trend to demonize CO2, but the UK and Germany, which has been the power-house of European economic growth, are severely threatened by their insistence on installing wind and solar energy.  The latter is especially inappropriate to the Continent and to Great Britain.

The pity of it all is that these economic sacrifices in Western Europe will hardly affect the level of atmospheric CO2 — which is controlled globally by huge emissions from China — and soon also from India.

Unfortunately, during the past few years, and even during the White House administration of George W. Bush, the United States has tended to move in the same direction — and energy costs have gone up markedly.

The regulatory burdens created by the EPA’s “War on Coal,” by holding up permits for pipelines and for exploration-production of fuels on Federal lands, etc, are imposing real costs on US households, which are the equivalent of a large energy tax — except that none of these increased costs flow into the US Treasury.

CULTURAL & EVEN MORE DANGEROUS, DEMOGRAPHIC SUICIDE!

But it is cultural suicide, which adds to economic suicide and spells doom for the future of Western Europe.  I have in mind here the heavy immigration from Islamic nations — with most immigrants unwilling to adjust to the prevailing culture of the host country.

Examples are rampant.  In Great Britain, the dangerous immigration has come mostly from Pakistan and Bangladesh, Islamic successors to the British rule over India; Hindu immigrants present no special problem.  In Southern Europe, the Low Countries, and most of Scandinavia, much of the immigration has been from Somalia and North Africa.  France has experienced massive immigration from North Africa and other African French-speaking former colonies.

In many of these nations now, these immigrant communities have formed enclaves that the native inhabitants can no longer enter safely; even the police have great difficulty controlling law and order in these enclaves.  Examples exist in cities like Birmingham, Amsterdam, Malmo (Sweden), Paris and Marseille.  Germany seems slightly better off, with immigrants from Turkey making some effort to become good Germans.  Of course, the aim of many in these enclaves is to take over the host country — using available democratic means — and institute Sharia (Islamic law). 

It is clear that these immigrants are taking advantage of the democratic nature of the host nations and their willingness to grant asylum status and lavish economic subsidies to any who declare themselves as refugees.  A prime example is Sweden, where multi-culturalism runs wild and is supported by the government-subsidized and beholden media.  So far, no real revolt yet — except for some grumbling from the indigenous population (whom the compliant media denounce as “racists.”)

Least affected have been the Slavic nations, which were formerly under Soviet domination.  Perhaps because of their delayed economic development, they have not been as attractive a destination for immigrants.  Ironically, these East-Europeans may yet save Western civilization.

The United States faces a rather special situation.  There is much immigration, mostly illegal, from south of the border. But these Latino immigrants are not Islamic; they share similar cultural values with native-born Americans — and most are making an effort to adapt to the prevailing culture.  The main danger is one of national security.  With porous borders, potential terrorists can easily slip into the United States and create mayhem. 

A peculiar problem exists in Israel, which has experienced illegal Islamic (!) immigration, mainly from Sudan and Eritrea.  We are told that some southern suburbs of Tel Aviv now resemble a Third-World nation.  Efforts are underway to deport these illegal immigrants; but standing in the way is Israel’s Supreme Court, a group of unelected liberal lawyers, who personally oppose the Parliament-passed law of deportation — certainly an anomalous situation by US standards.

Russia has experienced problems of its own, mainly from Islamic provinces in the Caucasus.  The suppression of the Chechen revolt has caused a violent reaction, leading to major terror acts, even in Moscow.

Exacerbating the Islamic “conquest“ of Western Europe is the fact that the indigenous people — from Swedes to Spaniards  — are not reproducing themselves.  Whatever the cause may be, the number of children per family is well below the replacement level of 2.11; in some countries it is as low as 1.30.  The statistics are frightening — as seen in records of births, welfare rolls, and school attendance.  By mid-century, parts of Europe will have a Moslem majority — and even before then it will be too late to rectify the situation.

WHAT OF THE FUTURE?

With ongoing internal battles within Islamic groups, it is not easy to predict the future.  In Syria, some 200,000 have been killed and millions have been turned into refugees.  The rise of the “Islamic State” in the last few months promises a brutal suppression of any who hold even a slightly different Islamic view.  Their announced goal is to set up a theocratic Caliphate in any lands that have ever been under Islamic rule — including most of the Balkans, Andalus-Spain, and of course Israel.

At the battle of Tours in 732, Charles Martell stopped the advance into France of Moslem armies from the Iberian peninsula.  In 1571, in the great naval battle of Lepanto, off Greece, a Spanish-Italian fleet defeated the Turks.  In their farthest advance into Central Europe, a Turkish army besieged Vienna in 1683.  Christian forces, under the command of King John Sobieski of Poland, defeated the invaders decisively and saved Western civilization.

Americans have twice saved Europe in the 20th century and may soon be forced to defend Europe again against a new threat.  The first assault on Western European civilization came from Nazi Germany and its allies; it took a bloody World-War-II (1939-1945) to defeat them.  Certainly, without US intervention, Western Europe, and even Britain, might now be part of a German-ruled dictatorship, a sort of involuntary European Union.  It is doubtful also whether the Soviet Union could have withstood Hitler’s onslaught without the active material assistance of the United States. 

The second threat to Europe came from the post-1945 Soviet Union; it was dominated by the specter of ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons.  The “Warsaw Pact” encompassed even a large part of Germany.  This “Cold-War” threat was neutralized thanks to the steadfastness of the United States — but also by the internal economic problems brought about by the planned economy of the Soviet empire. 

The new threat of course is Islamo-Fascism and its aim to introduce Sharia — in at least those parts of Europe that had been Muslim lands in the past, but aiming really at all of Europe — and eventually the rest of the world.  This new threat uses a method of warfare that is different from the past and more insidious.  Terrorism has come into its own, partly based on large Islamic populations in Western Europe. 

Coupled with this external threat is the internal one from Islamic fanatics, many of them born in Europe — and even from converts.  We have seen this happen in Spain, and more recently in Britain.  Their methods have been crude and their weapons have been primitive; but with nuclear proliferation and with the possibility of chemical and biological warfare, these threats have to be taken very seriously. 

Fighting these threats takes resources for surveillance, intelligence, sundry military expenditures, and weapons, both offensive and defensive.  Resilience requires above all a strong economy.  And one cannot have a strong economy without adequate energy resources – which gets us back to the issue of climate fears. 

The problem now is that while the threat of terrorism is growing, so is the suicidal drive to limit the use of energy and thereby also economic growth.  This internal threat is particularly strong in Europe and has been called, quite properly, eco-Bolshevism.  It would have all the earmarks of the failed Soviet system, with government involvement in every facet of the economy and with energy restrictions reducing economic growth. 

There is no question that the policies being discussed now in Europe and in the United States would be extremely costly, would force industrial cutbacks and of course massive job losses.  All of these exacerbate social tension in nations that have a large number of immigrants, who traditionally have the highest unemployment levels. 

WILL THE US STEP UP AGAIN AND SAVE EUROPE?

DOUBTFUL!

One may ask: Is there any way to stop this steamroller?  There’s probably little hope that such an initiative can come from Europe; it may have to come from the United States.  Somehow we would have to convince European leaders that their policies, based on global-warming fears, are mistaken.  That job may prove to be very difficult — unless there is a drastic change in current US policy.  But it is something that has to be done if we want Europe to survive economically, as an ally against the threat of Islamo-Fascism. 

I don’t believe that the US is prepared to save Europe; just listen to our Secretary of State:  Speaking in Boston on Oct 9,  John Kerry pronounced that climate change, if left unaddressed, will result in the end of times: “Life as you know it on Earth ends,” Kerry said.  Last February, Kerry claimed that climate change was the world’s “most fearsome weapon of mass destruction.”  Not nuclear bombs in the hands of the terrorist-sponsoring regime of Iran — or in the hands of ISIS or al Qaeda; not Ebola or some fearsome epidemic of a lethal disease. 

According to Kerry, climate change is the real number-one national-security threat.

US media, academia, and other opinion-makers are chiming in.  In her latest work of science-fiction, Harvard’s Naomi Oreskes, co-author of the mendacious Merchants of Doubt, imagines a future world devastated by climate change.  She generously gives the West another 80 years — well beyond her own life span, of course.  But she totally ignores the dangers of rising Islamo-Fascism and of demography.  Just listen:

The year is 2393, and the world is almost unrecognizable. Clear warnings of climate catastrophe went ignored for decades, leading to soaring temperatures, rising sea levels, widespread drought and — finally — the disaster now known as the Great Collapse of 2093, when the disintegration of the West Antarctica Ice Sheet led to mass migration and a complete reshuffling of the global order. Writing from the Second People’s Republic of China on the 300th anniversary of the Great Collapse, a senior scholar presents a gripping and deeply disturbing account of how the children of the Enlightenment — the political and economic elites of the so-called advanced industrial societies — failed to act, and so brought about the collapse of Western civilization. 

So don’t look to the US to come to the rescue of a doomed Western Europe.  It is unlikely that our children or grandchildren will be fortunate enough to experience the charms of great cities like London, Paris, Amsterdam, and Rome – or what’s left of them.

    The suicidal collapse of Western civilization will not come about by accident.

    Western civilization has been sleeping with secularism with all the accompanying ills with it.
    Among the illness include usury, materialism, and war profiteering.

    War profiteering: Henry Ford Senior who was an American sold trucks to both the allied forces as well as Nazi Germany.

    In fact, he was conferred the order of the grand cross by top Nazi officials among whom was Heinrich Himmler.

    The same pattern is seen today.

    People of the exact same mold and mindset as Henry Ford who are committing crimes against humanity are behind all the mayhem/wars/terrorism that we get from the news nowadays.

    People selling weapons, small arms, helicopters, fighter jets, bombers, bombs and aircraft carriers are becoming rich exponentially by instigating the public sector to go to war, creating mayhem and discord in otherwise peaceful communities.

    Parallel to that, by instigating discord these greedy wolves create pretexts for outright invasion of oil rich nations such as Iraq and Syria in the Middle East and mineral rich Afghanistan.

    Greed was definitely behind 911, Al-Qaeda, ISIS.

    Boko Haram is a CIA black ops conducted for hegemony over Nigerian oil

    The CIA takes orders from the unscrupulous private sector to conduct divide and conquer operations as well as assassinations that could lead to profit, carried forward John Perkins: Confessions of an Economic Hit Man.

    The banking sector accumulates capital to start wars. That is how they make more money.

    Everytime there is war, the logistics sector of the economy wins big!

    This type of mindset can only occur with people who are contemptuous towards humanity.

    These jingoistic businessmen think that they are better than the rest of us when in actual fact they are the worst among humans.
