Hi, first of all im from Denmark. ( which you can se at my lack of english ) ItÂ´s true that weÂ´re having problems with defending our selfes, no doubt about that. If you have just have a small problem with the muslims, you are marked as a racist. Thats why poeople dont gather up. You cant fight a war when you have every single person against you, (JUST because its "the right thing to do/say") stats say it all. There have been about 50 stats about our crime in copenhagen. All say that 82% of the crime was made by muslims / foreing people. And I se it myself every day. Danes are fed up with muslims. They are taking more and more control every day. Denmark is not what it used to be anymore. DK is not a safe place anymore, as it always have been. BUT, I dont think we will imigrate to other countries, just like that. We will stay. WeÂ´re not just gonna flee. The danes will soon rise, and I dont think its too late.

It is said nature abhors a vacuum. I guess this is true. Now that we don't have the Russians as an all-purpose bogeyman, we are replacing them with the evil muslims.

Goverments need enemies. Fear is a wonderful tool. Civil rights being trimmed? We have enemies. Questionable wars? We must fight the enemy.

No doubt the muslim world produces some evil men, and some of them are our enemies. All other parts of the world produce evil as well, I doubt the muslims have any more then their share.

Its nothing we have not seen before. Those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

The difference between Europe & the US on immigration is that here in the States, the immigrants assimilate into our political & economic culture. The only effect is that I can choose between Pho, Vindiloo, Chili Rellnos, Falafel, Gyros, or Pasta Alfredo for supper. The problem in Europe is that even when given the opertunity, the Muslim immigrants aren't assimilating. In fact, the more dangerous & organized of them intend on assimilating Europe into the Dar Al Islam. This is a very different situation, and a very dangerous one at that.

The reason Americans don't worry about the flood of immigrants here is that they hold pretty much the same values - the immigrants are overwhelmingly Christian, don't insist on putting in a theocracy in their new adopted country, and don't go around killing those that disagree with them. All these can't be said about the Muslim immigrants into Europe. They won't just change the "modus vivendi" once they become a majority, they will put in some form of Sharia. Then watch the fireworks.

If I'm not mistaken, the Muslims and Serbs in Bosnia are ethnically identical - only the religion is different.
Makes you wonder how they could discern "anybody who looked Muslim..."

Clothing perhaps?

To me this sounds like fuzzy-headed Europe-bashing. I guess it could conceivably happen, but so could a lot of horrible and unlikely things. I think these "pundits" are plugging these scenarios not because they are plausible, but rather because they fit neatly with their particular sets of prejudices.

Looking too far down the road. The major split in Europe will occur as 11 countries prepare for referendum votes on the newly sewn European Union Contitution. Granted, I'm not saying that there will be anything near a "civil war" on these votes. However, it will, profoundly, place a wedge between the appeasers and the "sovereignors." Once those sides are defined with clarity (and the referendum vote will do just that) you will see an emboldened opposition of open borders and appeasement towards the Muslim influx.

In short, they really haven't picked the teams yet. Once they do, European politics will get interesting...as will coming elections in select European nations...

this is a classic example of western alarmism (aka western confusion). A fragment of American society which has, thankfully, withered long ago.

they would simply meld into the system

and Europe is taking measures to make sure that happens with relative ease, the notion of such conflicts is absurd, might be why I don't read vodkapundit.
