Daniel Greenfield writes for Front Page Magazine about a major problem for European nations.
“A Small European Nation Has a Big Explosions Problem,” a New York Times story recently reported. The story clarified that the small nation was the Netherlands, it never did clarify who was behind the over 700 bombings so far this year. Saying it out loud would have been impolite.
European nations, small and great, have all sorts of mysterious unexplained problems that they never used to before. The Netherlands has a rash of bombings. In the UK, acid attacks are up 75%. Much like the bombings in the Netherlands, none of the news stories clarify why a phenomenon associated with a whole other part of the world had migrated to the UK. …
… Why do the Netherlands, Sweden, and Germany have a big explosion problem? Why were thousands of girls assaulted in the UK? Why were over 1,000 women and girls assaulted in Germany on New Year’s Eve? Why are cartoonists murdered in France? Why are churches turning into mosques all across the continent? Because Europeans are letting it happen.
Unlike the zombies and vampires, this horror story is real. Europe is letting itself be colonized, assaulted and killed because the alternative is the stigma of violating perceived social norms.
There is a species of politeness that requires not seeing what is going on around us until it’s too late. In the twentieth century, clearly spelling out the evils of Nazism and Communism was seen as rude. The gentlemanly thing to do was to believe that war was unnecessary and unneeded. By the time the wake-up calls arrived, courtesy of Hitler and Stalin, it was almost too late.
The emerging European ideal of Europe had almost eliminated the future of the continent. …
… Mass indoctrination transformed the social contract from a set of mutual obligations to a one-way street in which one party gives everything and the other takes everything.
The post The high price of European politeness first appeared on John Locke Foundation.
