BUCHANAN DECLARES: DEATH OF THE WEST

The New Year is just minutes old and now comes Pat Buchanan to warn: The Death of the West!

In his ultracontroversial book, which will be banned, blocked and burned in many quarters, brave Buchanan contends that the U.S. will be a Third World nation by the year 2050.

The BestSellingAuthorTVHostPresidentialCandidateColumnist predicts Europe will be inundated by an Islamic-Arab-African invasion and most First World nations, including Japan, will have begun slowly to vanish from the earth.

Buchanan is primed and ready for a media blitz behind DEATH OF THE WEST [ranked #492 on AMAZON's hourly sales chart Wednesday morning], set for release from DUNNE.

Buchanan will light the bonfire on NBC's TODAY show this Friday, according to a network source.

But the DRUDGE REPORT can once again bring you the first sneak.

Relying upon the most recent UN population studies, Buchanan declares:

• By 2050, only 10% of the world’s people will be of European descent. One third of Europe’s people will be over 60, and one-in-ten over 80. Involuntary euthanasia has already come to Europe.

• Between now and 2050, Asia, Africa, and Latin America will grow by three to four billion people -- 30 to 40 new Mexicos! -- as Europe will lose the equivalent of the entire population of Germany, Poland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland.

• By 2050, 23 million Germans will have disappeared along with 16 million Italians and 30 million Russians.

• Russia will lose Siberia and the far east to China and be pushed out of the Caucuses and Central Asia, where Islamic populations are exploding while Russia’s is dying.

• Either Europe must effect a radical cutback in pensions and health care for seniors, or Europe must import scores of millions of Arabs and Africans to care for the elderly and pay the taxes to sustain their welfare states.

• The 4.2 million Palestinians in Israel and on the West Bank and Gaza will explode to 9 million by 2025, and 15 million by 2050, when Palestinians will outnumber Israel’s Jewish population two-to-one.

• America’s “Dual Containment” policy in the Persian Gulf seems unsustainable. In less than 25 years, Iraq will have 42 million people and Iran 94 million people, more than any European nation except Russia.

• The Islamic invasions of Spain and France in the eighth century, and of the Balkans and Central Europe from the 14th to the 17th centuries, will be reenacted in the lifetime of most of those now living. Islam has already surpassed Catholicism as the largest religion on earth.

• It is the Christian nations -- Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox -- that have begun to die. In a chapter titled, “Where Have All the Children Gone?” Buchanan explains why, and why it is unlikely the West can solve the demographic crisis before it leads to The Death of the West.

In his chapter La Reconquista, Buchanan contends that an invasion of the United States is taking place and that America now harbors a “nation within a nation.”

• There are 30 million foreign born in the U.S. today, and between 9 and 11 million illegal aliens, or as many undocumented aliens in the U.S. as there are people in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Connecticut.

• Mexico is exporting its poor and unemployed for U.S. taxpayers to employ and educate. Radical and militant Hispanics and Mexican leaders alike believe this will lead to the cultural and demographic recapture of the Southwest from America, reversing the results of The Mexican War.

• By supporting open borders, the GOP is committing suicide. First-time Hispanic voters chose Clinton 15-1 over Dole. Of the seven major immigration states -- Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, California, Texas and Florida -- Mr. Bush lost five, and perhaps six. Of the 10 states with the smallest share of immigrants, Bush won all 10.

• European-Americans are a minority in America’s most populous state, California, and by 2004, will be a minority in Texas.

• The political agenda of California Hispanics includes race welfare for illegal aliens, racial preferences, bilingual education, open borders, dual citizenship, Cinqo de Mayo as a California holiday, and, in one case, replacing a statue of an American hero of the Mexican War with the Aztec god Quetzacoatl.

• White Americans are fleeing California at the rate of 100,000 a year.

• MeCHA, the student organization that claims chapters on hundreds of campuses has a program that reads like a Mexican version of the agenda of the white-supremacist Aryan Nation.

• In 2001, an Office for Mexicans Abroad in Mexico was providing survival kits with everything from dried meat to anti-diarrhea pills to condoms to Mexicans setting off to break in to the United States .

• As of 2000, there were 8.4 million foreign born in California, as many foreign born as there are people in New Jersey, a primary cause of the state energy and schools crisis.

• Among Third World immigrants, poverty rates and incarceration rates are double and triple what they are among native-born Americans.

Shooting up the flares and waving the flag, Buchanan argues that the 1960s “counter-culture” has become America’s dominant culture, and the iconoclasts of that counter-culture are systematically demolishing America’s history and heritage.

• Under Political Correctness, America’s greatest heroes -- soldiers, explorers and statesmen from Columbus to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson -- are under savage attack as genocidal racists and exploiters of indigenous peoples.

• The history books of American public schools are being rewritten with the old heroes ignored or trashed and Western civilization disparaged and demeaned.

• When Mel Gibson’s film, “The Patriot,” came out in 2000, it was savagely attacked for presenting black Americans as fighting patriots in the Revolutionary War.

• With the assault on Confederate books, symbols, flags, heroes, and holidays almost complete, the attack is now proceeding against the Puritan fathers, soldiers who fought in The Mexican War, and, in New Jersey, even against the Declaration of Independence itself.

• In some school districts, Mark Twain, Flannery O’Connor, and any realistic portrayal of the America South, including Harper’ Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird, are now forbidden.

• Even the great museums on America’s Mall, to introduce school children to the greatness and glory of America’s past, are being used to indoctrinate children in how wicked and evil our forefathers were.

In his chapter, “The De-Christianization of America,” Buchanan argues that the death of the Christian faith in Western countries is a primary cause of their dying populations. Whenever faith dies, the people die. A new atheistic civilization is arising, he argues, and is using its dominance of the culture and the courts to drive Christianity out of the temples of our civilization.

• Secular Humanism, widely mocked and disparaged, a few decades ago, is now the dominant faith of the nation’s cultural elites. The moral tenets of humanism are replacing those of Christianity in our public life.

• Even Christian churches are rewriting their hymnals to make them acceptable to the dominant culture.

• Anti-Catholic films and filthy and blasphemous anti-Christian art are the deliberate insults of a triumphant pagan and secularist faith.

The book's publication was delayed after September terror.

I seem to remember that the first of your posts that I responded to had to do with the greatness that European population inherently imparts to nations.

Again, I ask you to reconcile that sentiment with the waning fortunes of Western Europe.

Argentina was settled largely by Italians, Spaniards, Germans, Jews, etc. and look what is happening now. Don't get me started on Eastern Europe.

Used to be, that those who wanted to eliminate or subjugate groups of people based on race were called 'racist'. It seems to me now, that anyone who recognizes differences between the looks, cultures, and predisposition of the various races is labelled 'racist'... but only if the PC powers-that-be don't like what is being said.

Of course there are different races. Duh. That is as incontrovertible a fact as stating that there are different breeds of dog. Not recognizing that is pure denial.

I have not yet seen Buchanan advocating the elimination or subjugation of any particular races. He is stating observations; it's analogous to saying "That man is black" or "That woman is white." Therefore, I do not see why he is labelled a 'racist' - and must immediately discount the ignorant opinions and tiny-fisted tantrums of the race-baiting liberals trying to do so.

This tread is about 'death of the west'. And that is the issue here. But I know, Pat detractors never could handle the issues.

Maybe a loan from the Jesse Jackson Savings & Trust?

The world needs a policeman?

Let me qualify that. The world needs a policeman when its interests coincide with our own. For example, I don't agree that the US should have been involved in Kosovo. Clearly, our interests were not at stake.

It is my honest opinion that if we aren't entangled in every other countries Bull sh*t, we wont have these damn problems of these murdering freaks and fanatics flying jet airliners into skyscrapers. The problems in the Mid East, Russia, China etc, are *NEVER* going to go away. Do we want to be part of their BS?

Wrong. If you have international trade, you have to have an international presence; otherwise, all of these so-called "freaks and fanatics" would attack us. Back in the 18th century, our commercial ships were being plundered by pirates from the north coast of Africa. That didn't stop until Jefferson ordered warships into the region to destroy the pirates. Trade naturally implies defense. You can't have one without the other. It's that simple.

I believe the cracks are showing in the global intervention foundation. I also believe that continuing this down this path of global interventionism will end in chaos for the United States, as we have everything to lose. Much of this global interventionism is based on nothing but greed and power. In my honest opinion, this will lead to nothing but MORE trouble for the United States.

I believe that we should intervene when our national interests are at stake. Sometimes, that means being willing to understand the longterm consequences of something. For example, if Saddam Hussein invades Kuwait again, it certainly wouldn't affect us immediately. We don't derive the vast majority of oil from Kuwait. However, because Hussein would pose a greater threat to Saudi Arabia -- which IS a major source of foreign oil -- we need to consider the ramifications of not intervening NOW, when we have a chance to prevent greater damage. That is what the Gulf War was all about. We didn't feel that Iraq posed an immediate threat to us. It was longterm.

We could be very independent and still trade with friendly nations, and still have the worlds biggest and meanist military for *defense purposes* or even offensive purposes if needed, while at the same time, be very independent. We don't need to be and shouldn't be the global cop!

And guess what? Afghanistan is not what we would have considered "friendly" ... and look where the attack on our soil came from? You can't hide. You can't run. Being a trading partner means being subject to attack from your enemies. I feel its about time for the United States to become more independent. We were warned, many years ago about foreign entanglements. We should take notice.

I guess you don't keep up on the Nasdaq, the 30 year bond, the unemployment numbers, the homeless numbers, or even the Enron debacle and the ties to Bush.

Homeless numbers? Are you serious?

Enron is no more tied to Bush than it was to Clinton in 1996 when he was granting waivers for a power plant acquisition in India.

Unemployment is lower now than it was in 1993, eighteen months after the last recession ended.

See what I mean? You're always looking for the pile in the room with the pony, especially when the media tells you its there.

Exactly...the MILLIONS of illegals that come over our southern borders are NOT immunized.

I'm not saying let the illegals in. I'm saying open the legal process.

Right up until 9-10 Bush was calling for open borders, but instead of blaming these insane free-for-all immigration policies for allowing the trojan horse to get into the United States, in the first place, we jump on the Bush bandwagon to launch an all out war on another country.

Interesting aint it?

Resisting old European-biased white men might be a hell of a lot of good fun for parlor feminists

Parlor feminist? Are you referring to me?

If you have deduced that I am a feminists because of my screen name...you are wrong.

I use that screen name because after 26 years of marriage, being a stay-at-home mom, who has home schooled our two youngest children, and with the support of my husband - I have gone back to college to earn a degree in Electronic Engineering. So, when I joined FR...I was in the middle of learning about electronic resistors...and because I am one of the few women in any of my classes...I took the name ResistorSister as a pun; so laugh.

Just about all of them, who have people who hate us... Heck, the Taliban regime had to write a law to prevent men from getting a haircut ala Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic. Even under the most oppressive regime, people were still trying to get recordings of our movies.

"...Buchanan's ideas are borrowed from the 19th century. We have already seen where such isolationism leads us (WWI, Pearl Harbor, etc), and it ain't pretty. Sad to say, the world does need a policeman. Our military is the only insulation that we have against tyranny...."

Splendid. Really, George Bush on his most inarticulate day couldn't have said it better, given that most of the truly great ideas in human history are borrowed from the past.

isolationismis a term borrowed from the British policy ofsplendid isolationfrom the troubles of the European continent. Although always practiced spottily and hypocritically, while it was practiced Britain could still place the "Great" in front of it's name without provoking howls of laughter.

I'll never understand why American so-called isolationists adopted that word. Whever words are imported from England, misunderstandings inevitably arise.

Anyway, when we tried to follow George Washington's advice--also spottily and hypocritically at times--more people in the world admired, even loved, us as a People and the concept of our country; the Vienamese, the Koreans, the Chinese, Africans, Indians, Arabs--people on the street all over the planet harbored no ill will towards us.

Our intervention in WWI led directly to the resumptions of hostilities in WWII. And Pearl Harbor was just one of many instances of collateral damage in the American Progressive's 100 year jihad to uplift the masses of the world with free markets and easily obtained birth control.

And yet, even then, the Elites still payed lip-service to our founding document and actually went through the ritual of a declaration of war. It's really astonishing how willing the American People have been to become mameluks for their progressive Elites--who despise them far worse than any foreign agressor. Fascinating. And depressing.

Wrong again my friend, the issue on this tread is his book 'death of the west'. Do you really think a mayor of 'Podunk Junction' is a prerequisite for writing contemporory, world renown classics?

Who are you? You came in during the middle of a conversation. We were talking about Buchanan's capacity to lead. Catch up.

Lousey comparison. Carville is, was a negative campaigne consultant. Never participated in a summit. The only book he wrote, that no one read or are aware of was 'the 1st horse in town?'. Hell I can't even remember the title.

Fine. How about Lanny Davis? Or George Stephanopolous. Point is ... you can't hold up the title of "White House Advisor" as some kind of accolade and then turn and run when negative examples surface.
