Down With Diversity

For the last decade or so the model of inclusion in much of American society has morphed from the melting pot to the tossed salad. Diversity has been elevated as the new American ideal by nitwits like Al Gore who managed to invert e pluribus unum into “out of one, many.” Schools and courts do everything in their power to subvert the unique American identity in a misguided homage to multiculturalism.

It is fortunate that in America there are those, indeed the majority, who reject relativism and cling to traditional American values while they fight the good fight against the forces of liberalism. The Supreme Court battle is the latest front in this culture war.

It is unfortunate that the Europeans have long since given up the fight. Nowhere has the tossed salad model of inclusion been more earnestly embraced than in European capitals such as London.

Great Britain and London in particular have long welcomed migrants from the Arab world including many Muslim asylum seekers. This liberal policy had the inevitable effect of allowing radicals, criminals and terrorists to enter.

One such example is Sheik Omar Bakri Mohammed whose family was granted asylum in 1986 and has been supported by the British social system. As a sign of his thanks, Bakri has preached intifada against the West to hordes of Muslim immigrants.

Last May he praised Osama Bin Laden in public to followers who chanted “Bomb New York” and “Kill George Bush” while burning US flags. The mob asserted that the murderous Abu Musab al Zarqawi was about to wreak vengeance on Britain while chanting “UK, you will pay—Zarqawi is on the way.”

Yesterday the London subway system and a bus were bombed by terrorists. Approximately 50 people were killed and 700 wounded.

It should be abundantly clear that many (estimates are 15–20,000) Muslims in Britain have no intention of embracing the Anglo-Saxon rule of law. And they take full advantage of liberal PC sensitivity. “To criticize Islamic fascism is supposedly to be unfair to Islam, so we allow on our own shores mullahs and madrassas to spread hatred and intolerance.”

We must regain our manhood, “speak the truth to all these falsehoods, and remember that we did not inherit a wonderful civilization just to lose it to the Dark Ages.”
