It gradually began to dawn on him that this wasn't only a pseudo experience but the real deal. Realizing the new state of play, he collected himself and took care of business to eliminate the threat to his life. But it required a dramatic change in his expectations and he had to call upon a long-dormant ingenuity. Yet even as the blood began to flow out of him he did not immediately realize his actual peril.
We Westerners are in the same situation and sit passively pressing buttons and twirling dials on our Game Boy, X Box, and Nintendo sets as though the many warnings sounded are no more than monor events in a video game with a convenient "reset" button for when we run out of allies, ammo, and hiding places.
We are stuck in somethings that is no more real to us than a video game. The World Trade Center Twin Towers are struck from the air; trapped fellow citizens jump from high buildings, preferring a 90-mph impact with the sidewalk to incineration; a warship is attacked; uninvited foreigners flood across our borders by the millions with desultory government efforts to stop them or remove them; embassies are bombed; diplomatic missions are violated by Iranian thugs; our diplomats held hostage without penalty; Spanish language sign appear that mirror English signs in a small Missouri city park; Hispanic enrollment in a Long Island school accelerate to something like 20%; Mexican intellectuals relish the inundation of U.S. border and western states by Mexican illegals; U.S. prisons fill with illegal aliens; Saudi Arabia buys betrayal by U.S. diplomats with lucrative post-retirement sinecures; U.S. university Middle Eastern Studies programs find themselves dependent on Arab financial support; 752 "Sensitive Urban Zones" areas exist in France where authorities have ceded sovereignty to Muslim immigrants; Krazy Kat Islamic regimes work slavishly to acquire nuclear weapons; Indonesian Christian school girls are beheaded; the death toll from Islamic amateur killers rises above 10,000 since 9/11 (a rate 58 times higher than the excesses of the fearsome Inquisition itself); and the like.
Yet, nothing – nothing – appears adequate to arouse Europeans to do something about the threat to their way of life.
Consider yet another eloquent warning about the threat of the Camp of the Saints invasion and the Islamic soft jihad from a former French senior diplomat:
The Inexorable Suicide of Europe.A writer whom I can't recall observed ominously that there is still the French Foreign Legion somewhere in the background. Will it really get that bad before there will be any defensive reaction?
The Brussels administration admits officially that each year some 550,000 immigrants from Africa, the Middle East and China, plus South America, enter the European Union. In reality the figure is twice that, in other words, more than a million.
We will briefly take it country by country.
Italy wins the prize right now. For this to become known, a young Italian girl had to be raped and murdered by a Gypsy. Then Rome was forced to reveal that Italy, a country even more poorly governed than France, which is saying a lot, now has 3.7 million immigrants (the official figure), that 700,000 new arrivals were recorded in 2006, and that 560,000 Gypsies have settled there. More than 100,000 of them arrived in the ten-month period after January 1, 2007.
More than 50% of the crime in Italy is due to these "Rumanians". In addition, every year some 60,000 immigrants from Tunisia and Libya (where even Colonel Qadhafi admits that his country is invaded by Sub-Saharians waiting to get into Europe and certain to succeed in their goal) arrive in Italy via the island of Lampedusa. In general, it is easy to enter Europe through Italy where the administration is "lax"...
In Greece, it's worse and Cyprus is one of the great doors of entry into Europe.
In France, nothing has changed. It can be assumed that 350,000 new arrivals enter our country each year, 70% of them from Africa. The number of visas granted has not lessened. It is still more than 2 million – 2,038,000 in 2006 – which proves that the fight against massive immigration is, like all the rest, purely verbal.
While I'm on the topic, I should note in passing that the town of Aulnay-sous-Bois, in Seine-Saint-Denis, has just experienced 4 days and nights of street fighting between gangs of "Afro-Maghrebins" and the police, according to the press itself. At Villiers-le-Bel, Val d'Oise, it is even more serious. The police, attacked with rifles, proved to be impotent. In order to quell these riots military units specializing in street fighting are now necessary, especially since stockpiles of war weapons from the Balkans are being stashed in the suburbs.
In Germany there are 4 million Turks, and new arrivals every day. One German told me that Islamist Turks feel more at ease practicing their religious activities in Germany than in Muslim Turkey.
In Great Britain, 50 powerful Muslim associations control millions of faithful followers, mostly Pakistanis. In the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, beneath the smile of her gracious very Christian Majesty, there are now koranic schools where children can learn to become kamikazes and blow up automobiles.
In the Netherlands where there are many North African, Caribbean and Indonesian Muslims serious trouble is on the increase. The press writes that the situation is becoming "à la française", in other words: pillaged shops, torched cars, violent confrontations with the police.
Scandinavia is not to be left out where, in order to be in tune with the times, Norway discovered and recruited, as a government minister, a black woman from Martinique.
I might add that there is no common European policy on immigration. Spain and Italy amnestied millions of illegals – a tremendous message for others – without even informing their neighbors.
On the other hand, in the countries of Eastern Europe, there are no immigrants. Why? Because these countries were subjected to communism and are therefore underdeveloped, with no welfare state or free hand-outs, housing, health care or schools.
Some say that one must not exaggerate. The great invasions from the 4th to 7th centuries eventually worked themselves out, didn't they? Great ignorance. We have to realize that these invasions had only a limited effect on the population of nascent France. As a matter of fact, in general, gangs of invaders and vandals, totaling only a few thousand individuals did not settle down in France, except for the Franks to the East. Furthermore, these barbarians quite rapidly converted to Christianity, more precisely to arianism.
It is true that at the time the merovingian monarchy did not distribute to these barbarians welfare of all kinds, declaring: "You are a great opportunity for France. Come, all of you, and join us with your large and beautiful families." No. Back then, people still had common sense.
And now, what will happen? In the short term, immigration will continue to flood in. Problems which have never been this serious will continue to spread and worsen. In the very long term, Europe, which created the most beautiful civilization that humanity has ever produced, will disappear.[1]
More than 2 million visas for entry to France in 2006. Even with the situation as perilous as it is, still . . . still it's business as usual.
Not in my back yard (NIMBY) used to be a mildly humorous way of pointing out the inconsistency between "improvements" certain people advocated for areas where other people live, but which improvements they resisted for their own homes. Now it suggests a fatal somnolence and indifference to any threat that is not immediately and personally threatening.
As unresponsive and contemptuous as the U.S. government is, for one, it would still turn on a dime if the people became energized on these issues of sovereignty, national honor, and cultural preservation.
Be that as it may, Americans, to their shame, failed to support restrictionist presidential candidates. Too, the American electorate pays rapt attention to the promises for immediate socialized medicine and wets its pants over Anthropegenic Global Warming junk science.
No, in this Western country, the electorate is no more wakeful and than the Europeans.
It will have to get worse, right until the disastrous assumptions of the flaccid multicultural ethic and support for Thomas Payne's "bastard kind of generosity" play down to the last chip on the table.
Apparently, that is the default game plan.

UPDATE:
One reason for this watery citizen reaction is suggested by Roger Kimball and Tocqueville, who are quoted at Hatless in Hattiesburg. Democratic despotism infantilizes citizens, in short. Dynamics similar to J.R. Nyquist's shopping mall culture.
