Syria is 'a geopolitical Chernobyl' and Islamic State must be defeated, says former US army chief David Petraeus.

Sorry Mr Petraeus, you cannot defeat IS without demolishing Saudi Arabia...

“Liberalism is the ideology of Western suicide,” wrote James Burnham in his 1964 Suicide of the West. Burnham predicted that the mindless magnanimity of liberals, who subordinate the interests of their own people and nations to utopian and altruistic impulses, would bring about an end to Western civilization.

Was he wrong? Consider what is happening in Europe.

Serbia, Hungary, and Slovakia, small nations sensing they will be swamped by asylum seekers from the Muslim world, are trying to seal their borders and secure their homelands. Their instinct for survival, their awareness of lifeboat ethics, is acute. Yet they are being condemned for trying to save themselves.

Meanwhile, the pope calls on Catholics everywhere to welcome the asylum seekers and Angela Merkel will be taking in 800,000 this year alone, though the grumbling has begun in Bavaria. This is but the beginning of what is to come, if Europe does not pull up the drawbridge.

For the scores of thousands of Syrians in the Balkans, Hungary, Austria, and Germany are only the first wave. Behind them in Lebanon, Turkey, and Jordan are 4 million refugees from the Syrian civil war. Seeing the success of the first wave, they are now on the move. Behind them are 2 million Alawites and 2 million Christians who will be fleeing Syria when the Bashar Assad regime falls to ISIS and the al-Qaeda terrorists who already occupy half of that blood-soaked land.

Now the Iraqis, who live in a country the prospects for whose reunification and peace are receding, have begun to move. Also among the thousands pouring into Europe from Turkey are Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, and Afghans. When the Americans leave Afghanistan and the Taliban take their revenge, more Afghans will be fleeing west.

Africa has a billion people, a number that will double by 2050, and double again to 4 billion by 2100. Are those billions of Africans going to endure lives of poverty under ruthless, incompetent, corrupt, and tyrannical regimes, if Europe’s door remains wide open?

The American government is happy to create this ridiculous situation with refugees, by bombing whatever without a strategic plan for peace. Peace has rarely been the first option in the US arsenal. In fact as mentioned earlier, the US are deliberately sabotaging Europe by whatever means they can, to stop it being unified as a competitive force. This started soon after WWII and General de Gaulle saw through this American motive... But the US government is clever and keeps making double dealings... And the Europeans indulge. 

This is one of the strategic thinking why the US is still friendly with the most despotic government on earth: The Saudis.

The Europeans have a lot of goodwill mostly based upon their guilt of past colonisation... The Yanks have none: their illusion of goodwill is not altruistic, it is based on PROFIT.

how convenient .....
