In response to the
following article in yesterday's Guardian by Jonathan Freedland:
"If this onslaught was about Jews . .
"
"Multiculturalism means allowing
every group its own distinct identity and, at the same time,
seeking an integrated Britishness we all share".
With this sentence Jonathan
Freedland touches the core of the MADNESS that is multi-culti
Britain.
"Every group should be allowed
its own distinct identity" - except the natives, that is,
who like the body of a soup are expected and required to
accept all the ingredients thrown into it, along with all
the changes to flavour and consistency that brings with it.
If those ingredients do not wish to dissolve into the body
of the soup they are free to retain their separateness,
swimming about in it enjoying the richness (and rottenness)
of a stock that has developed and matured over centuries of
European civilisation. If they choose to dissolve into the
body of the soup they are free to do so, of course, and it
(the natives) MUST accommodate and accept them. Any
resistance on their part, any desire to retain and cultivate
their OWN identity (as the native, European population of
these islands), is condemned as xenophobia or "racism".
And what is this "integrated
Britishness" we all share? It is a British passport with all
the perks, privileges and advantages that go with it. It is
a shared history and culture that goes all the way back to
the day before yesterday (ONE whole generation of multi-culti,
melting-pot Britain!). It is the freedom to exploit the most
advanced socio-economic environment (artificial jungle) on
Earth. More on that at

P.S. If anyone participating in the same thread is wondering how my post got to be right at the top, directly below Jonathan Freedland's article, all I can say to them is, so am I. There were quite a few posts already there when I first tried uploading mine, which I did two or three times, in vain. Each time I got an error message. I was feeling rather frustrated when I made a final attempt. This time it worked, only all the previous posts had disappeared and mine was the only one, at least, for a moment or two. I didn't rig it on purpose - honestly! If only I knew how . . . . . It brought more visiters to my homepage than I've ever had before. Of all the posts which followed mine, I was particularly impressed by the following from |

Is it really sensible to wonder
what it would be like if the word "Muslim" was replaced by
"Jew" in public debate? If Freedland wants to do that, he
should remember that doing so would have to include imagining
factual coverage like this:
--"Jewish extremists kill 52 in
London," And so on, and so on. Anxiety about Islam in Britain is not exactly irrational, and talking about the problems within the Islamic community should not be treated as a racist pathology. Let's recall that many Islamic radicals in Britain do actually want to kill a lot their fellow citizens, and have already started work on doing so. The general Islamic community, 40% of whom want Sharia law in the country, are alarmingly sympathetic towards the terrorists. Let's respond calmly and peacefully and within (and through) the law to all this. But let's not shut up about it. |
