What I was really doing was expressing fury at the forces--and people--who have brought Europe to this crisis.
Not only is it painful to watch, but the people of the world have good reason to fear such dangerous trends in Europe. For example, what happens when Muslim radicals take over the French nuclear arsenal?
As for the Mexican flood into the U.S.--yes, I am very concerned about that. However, it is true that Mexicans, for the most part, are Christian, family oriented, and decent, stable people. So far the American people are lucky in this respect.
It may be that the inability of Western societies to control the reckless impulses of their political leaders and the failure of Western journalism to provide truth and information to the populace could prove to be the greatest failure of contemporary Western civilization and its final fatal flaw, which is further cause for alarm.
Here we are screaming warnings like a Greek chorus to ears deafened by denial and hubris. Those who will not hear us consider us nags, but what else can we do?
