THE NEW EUROPEANS Voices from a changing continent (Photo Gallery)
National Geographic ^ | 10-18-2016 | Robert Kunzig

The refugees are arriving on a continent that since World War II has become home to a third of the world’s immigrants. Europe’s major countries, which once sent their huddled masses to the United States, now have foreign-born populations comparable to that of the United States. But only some European minds and fewer European hearts have adjusted to that reality. Even in the U.S., which John F. Kennedy called “a nation of immigrants,” immigration is a divisive issue—and always has been. In the 1750s Benjamin Franklin worried that too many Germans were coming to Pennsylvania. He said they had a “swarthy complexion.”

"I’ll work with writers worldwide on longform stories for the magazine and breaking news for the web, on issues that mean a lot to me: cultural diversity, the environment, climate change and species preservation, among others." - "The current Editor-in-Chief of the National Geographic Magazine, Susan Goldberg."

“Voices from a changing continent” implies that what is happening is some sort of natural process occurring without action by anyone in particular.

“Voices from a continent being changed” would be a lot more accurate.

Now there’s a lady who has an overt hatred for white people, and America. Thanks for outing her.

Bruce, you’ve just made another gold record!

THER IS A DIFFERENCE HERE! Right... When Europeans or Americans ‘colonize’ anyplace we bring a great deal with us and leave a great deal behind as well.

When THESE people arrive, they bring crime, violence, poverty, a refusal to assimilate, and complete disrespect and hatred for the host country.

“With the worst history of xenophobia, Germany has taken in the most refugees of any European country. The stakes of the experiment are high.”

It does not take a genius or an historian to know the outcome — disappearance of traditional Germany and Germans. The Germans do know that, don’t they? Every country throughout history that has been overrun, disappears. It is just not that many that purposefully engineered their own demise.

Susan Goldberg illustrates well the nature of “Stockholm Syndrome” as she offers up mealy-mouthed excuses for her angry, highly active, would-be oppressors.

Editor sounds like another hard-core leftist. I remember when the National Geographic was a magazine I could admire.

Beautiful diversity of pictures... and if that reflected a diversity of thought and belief it would support the liberal fantasy.

But that's not the case...

Islam is not diversity of thought, expression, art, or human striving... it's the opposite. It's the suppression of what's unique and noble in the human spirit.

If the pictures were to reflect the truth they would show a different story - a story of extreme conformity with draconian punishments of those who deviate from the orthodoxy. The pictures are a lie.

A hotel owner in Germany says “The money they’re given, they spend here in town” and it’s considered an ‘economic plus.’ Perhaps the hotel owner could give money directly to the people staying in his hotel. Wouldn’t that be an ‘economic plus’ as well? Perhaps the government could give that money back to it’s own taxpayers. Wouldn’t that be a plus also?

Rediculously, even in a Forbes article I’ve seen this notion that giving people money (in exchange for nothing and creating no multiplier) to spend in your country is an economic plus, without regard to where the funds come from.

It’s a garbage article that barely gives any voice to the problems caused by mass Muslim immigration.
