Spain is likely lost, France and the UK and the Netherlands and Belgium as well. Perhaps not Italy, Germany, and Eastern Europe. The Scandinavian nations? Lost probably as well, given the strength of PC and the desire to surrender. There the crisis is likely (as in Britain) to enable Muslim mobs to simply take power. Who will stop them? Who indeed will fight and die for country, when it’s value-less, and despised, and the nation itself wants to sell itself or surrender to Islam.

If things go to hell in a handbasket we will probably see a transformation in human behavior the likes of which would surprise those who’ve never seen trouble up close. The very same people who only yesterday were the paragons of political correctness will be the most bloodthirsty of all. Paradoxically, it will be those who have always understood human nature who will be the most tolerant and humane of all. There is no greater fanatic than an ivory tower fanatic; no more enthusiastic murderer than a former pacifist. I would rather take my chances with a grizzled sergeant of marines than one of these disciples of Hope who’s suddenly had a lightbulb come on in his head.

Years ago, when I was prowling through Zamboanga del Sur right after the big Muslim flareup that burned through it like a fire, I listened with horror to the stories of how ordinary Christian farmers engaged in payback. In their ordinary incarnation, these guys were all-singing, all-dancing, simple folk. After their villages got burned down and their wives and kids slaughtered, they were different people.

I hope and pray that we find ways to solve our problems rationally and gradually and not stick our heads in the sand until it all pent up and all kinds of red lines are crossed because we attended to things too late; because on the day that man becomes an animal, there is no animal worse than man.
