Europe is Lost? door Paul Belien

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.

America, read and heed. Subject: Brussels Journal

The Brussels Journal offers an interesting (terrifying) piece on the progress Muslims have made in their demographic conquest of Western Europe. The initial focus has been in cities, from which they are rapidly displacing the native inhabitants. As the author Fjordman predicts, soon, you will travel from London to Paris, Amsterdam or Stockholm and find that you have left one city dominated by burkas and sharia to find yet another city dominated by burkas and sharia.

Absurdly, the politically correct Left is celebrating the replacement of Europe’s diverse cultures by a single grim Islamic one in the name of “cultural diversity.” Here are a few examples of what this so-called diversity entails:

In England, Muslims are creating no-go areas for native Europeans. Signs indicate that whites can enter only at their own risk. Hindus are also subjected to ethnic cleansing. Caucasians are fleeing Londonistan in droves.

In France, there were 818 of these “no-go” zones when the presumably horrified government stopped keeping track – which was way back in 2002. Anything representing Western civilization, including post office trucks and fire engines, is routinely attacked with Molotov cocktails in these areas.

The welfare checks go in; only violence and Islam come out. In French math classes, Muslim students refuse to write “plus” signs because they remind them of the Christian cross. Following last year’s riots, the police announced that the situation had returned to normal when a day passed with only 98 vehicles set on fire by Muslim hooligans.

In Holland, Muslims will soon make up the majority in all major cities. Forty percent of Moroccan Muslims in the Netherlands explicitly reject Western values and democracy. Thirty-two percent of native Dutch already want out of what’s left of their country.

In Germany, at least 50 women have been killed in the past decade in “honor killings” – I.e., for trying to live Western lifestyles. Germans are considered by the Muslim colonizers to be “stinking people” who are “doomed to go to hell” for being “useless creatures and infidels.”

In Denmark, Muslim taxi drivers spy on female immigrants, so they can be hunted down and killed if they attempt to escape from Muslim society. In Norway and Sweden, protection money must be paid to bloodthirsty Muslim gangs.

It is becoming increasingly impossible to deny that the bleak and brutal culture of Islam is in the process of destroying European civilization. Yet Islam is only an opportunistic infection. Muslims have wanted to destroy the West for well over a millennium. If they are only now beginning to succeed, it is because only now is the West willing to let itself be destroyed.

As Dutch politician Frits Bolkestein puts it, Muslim conquest by immigration has to do with the loss of confidence in one’s own civilization. … There is no clear European identity today.

This has a real impact on foreign policy.

In other words, Europe is dying because it doesn’t believe in itself. Where once pride acted as an immune system to protect from external threats, now there is only the sanctimonious self-hatred known as liberalism.

Is it too late?
