Americans tend to consider the EU as a
joke. It’s not, because it’s not funny. Apart from a few vague
statements, the EU has largely abandoned
Denmark during the cartoon
incident. “European unity” only exists whenever Brussels wants to
subvert the democratic process in individual member states and force more
Islam down our throats, selling us out behind our backs through the
intricate networks of the Euro-Arab Dialogue. The Danish embassies had
hardly burnt down before Javier Solana, the “Foreign Minister” of the
European Union, promised his real masters the Saudis that the EU would
henceforth work to limit freedom of speech for half a billion people. And
he can’t be held responsible for this by the European public, since he
doesn’t answer to any democratically elected government. The EU is not a
joke, the EU is evil, destroying freedom across an entire continent and
spreading instability far beyond the borders of Europe. The Cold War was
won when Ronal Reagan publicly labelled the Soviet Union “the Evil
Empire.” A generation later, we are witnessing the rise of another Evil
Empire. Not
the Soviet Union, but the European Union. It’s time to bring this
one down, too. The European Union, not the USA and definitely not Israel,
is the greatest threat to world peace today. It is appeasement by the EU
that has emboldened the Islamic Jihad, and not just in the West. The EU is
an increasingly totalitarian entity that is post-democratic
and neo-feudalist. The buildings of the European Commission should be
turned into a museum of the history of dhimmitude and Jihad across the
world. Parts of it could be torn down and displayed next to pieces of the
Berlin Wall, symbols of past tyranny and oppression and the ultimate
triumph of freedom. Javier Solana, Chris Patten and their ilk should be
tried for treason in public trials to reveal the full scale of the
Eurabian project.
There is a growing estrangement between the peoples of Europe and their
elites. People sense that they are not being told the truth, and feel
betrayed. Somebody needs to show them just how deep the rabbit hole goes.
Publish Bat
Ye’or’s book “Eurabia” online, both in the full version and in
abridged versions of 50 and 5 pages. Pay the author whatever she wants for
the copyrights, and encourage the translation of the book into multiple
European languages. Store it online on websites such as Faith
Freedom International and Jihad
Watch, as well as major blogs based outside of Eurabian jurisdiction,
and encourage visitors to download the text or display it on their own
websites. This principle could be repeated with a number of books critical
of Islam, creating a flood of information bypassing politically correct
media and official censorship. Such an operation could receive clandestine
support of the Bush administration. It would cost a fraction of the war in
Iraq, and achieve a lot more, both in the West and in the world in
general.
Perhaps in stead of pinning our hopes on an Islamic Reformation that will
probably never materialize, Westerners should rather focus on an
Enlightenment and a new Renaissance. Not in the Islamic world, but in
Europe and the West. Wishful thinking, you say? Well, although the
situation is now very serious, it is in fact not impossible to imagine
such an outcome. Moreover, it is important that somebody formulates an
alternative, positive vision to rival that of Islam and Eurabia, or the
only alternatives ordinary Europeans will be stuck with are extremist
political movements. And then we will end up with
a Clash of Fascisms and the death of European democracy. Hope is
important. Without formulating a positive vision of hope we can never win
this.
Muslims always claim that the West owes much to Islam, and that Islamic
influences triggered the Renaissance. That’s not true. But maybe it will
be this time. It is true that the West in general and Europe in particular
has lost its way at the beginning of the 21st century. Perhaps this
life-and-death struggle with Islam is precisely the slap in the face that
we need to regroup and revitalize our civilization. Europe will now be
forced to rethink her culture and the entire basis of Western
civilization, if she is going to cure the weaknesses that are currently
making her vulnerable to Islamic infiltration. We need to rebuild a
stronger sense of Western unity, much fractured by the Eurabian Union and
the anti-Western, pre-Enlightenment ideology of Multiculturalism. If so,
Islam would indeed be responsible for triggering a Western Renaissance,
the Second Renaissance. Ironically, Islam itself would be critically,
perhaps mortally wounded by this struggle, and Bernard Lewis would be
proved wrong. Europe, or at least most of Europe, will not be Islamic by
the end of his century. It is more likely that Islam itself will have
ceased to be a global force of any significance by that point. But it is
important to realize that such a result will not come by itself. It will
require Europeans, Westerners and infidels in general to grow some
backbone, end appeasement and openly confront the very real Islamic threat
we are now facing. If we do so, I remain confident that we will prevail.
We just have to listen a bit less to the defeatist siren song of Mark
Steyn. Comment here
