Yes, you are missing something. Arab infestation was already a problem and politically correct hot potato. He chose Indians to avoid his content being written off as racist

Well we can certainly trust what one of America’s best known hate groups (the SPLC) has to say about this book. /sarc

The rancid newspaper throws around words like “racist” like everybody isn’t already tired of that and cites the USA’s well-known hate group as a source then scampers away like a little bunny rabbit.
If it had any courage, which it doesn’t, it would reinstate its comments section.
That way it would know what America thinks about it.
A bunny rabbit that’s chicken.

I read the book many years ago and when the invasion of Europe happened 3-4 years ago I knew exactly what was going to happen, and it has. I recommend everyone to read it. We say the same thing happening 2 years ago here in the U.S. They will outmumber us and and we can’t stop it.

The only way to see if the book is racist as versus bluntly honest/accurate, is to do statement versus data chart and see what shows up. Would need at least 10 statements by the author (or predictions) versus what is going on not only in France today (a stinking mess), by also in Italy, Greece, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Hungary, etc.

Empirical research is anathema to the Left, esp. the NY Times and Wash. Post. Why bother searching for the truth when you can make up your “own truth”.

Camp of the Saint was/is very prophetic. Nothing ‘racist’ about it.

Screw the NY Times.

Yadda, yadda. More sermonizing from All the Duranty That’s Fit to Print.

I figure they just caused a lot more folks to go out and buy Camp of Saints.

A lot of doubting liberals probably just heard of COS for the first time, and will now read it.

#1 on the NYT best seller list. That would be deliciously ironic.

I read the book years ago. The author got it right. I've lived in some third world countries, and years ago made the mistake of bringing a family of Vietnamese refugees into my home. Never again. Kipling was right. East is East, West is West, and never the twain shall meet. All I can say is, I'm glad my grandfather got on that boat and brought father with him.

Such bias at the NYT. “Racist book”, indeed. How about a book about the ineptitude of governments to protect their people, the one universally accepted role of government.
