overrun by immigrants, greedy banks, VAT, PIIGS, Eastern bloc drugs

Into the void are coming Muslims. As Christianity falters, Islam is robust, assertive, and ambitious. As Europeans under-reproduce at advanced ages, Muslims procreate in large numbers while still young.

5% of the EU, 20 million persons, identify themselves as Muslims. Should current trends continue, that number will double to 10% by 2020. If non-Muslims flee the new Islamic order, many parts of the European continent could be majority-Muslim within decades.

When that happens, cathedrals will appear as vestiges of a prior civilization (the jahiliya?) - until a Saudi-style regime transforms them into mosques.

The great national cultures — Italian, French, English, and others — will wither, replaced by a new transnational Muslim identity that merges North African, Turkish, sub-continental, and other elements.

This prediction is hardly new. In 1968, the British politician Enoch Powell gave his famed "rivers of blood" speech, in which he warned that in allowing excessive immigration, the United Kingdom was heaping up its own funeral pyre.

In 1973, the French writer Jean Raspail published Camp of the Saints, a novel that portrays Europe falling to massive, uncontrolled immigration from the Indian and other subcontinents. The peaceable transformation of a region from one major civilization to another, now underway, has no precedent in human history.

Here are several ways it might be stopped:

• Changes in Europe that lead to a resurgence of Christian faith, & an increase in childbearing.
• Immigration from other sources. That would increase the diversity of cultures, making it less likely that Islam would dominate.

Current trends suggest Islamization will happen, since Europeans  find it too strenuous to have children, stop illegal immigration, or diversify their sources of immigrants. Instead, they prefer to settle unhappily into senility.

Europe has reached unprecedented heights of prosperity and peacefulness — and shown an inability to sustain itself. It is inevitable that the most successful societies are in danger of collapse due to a lack of offspring.

At the same time Muslims in their midst are almost all marrying and having many children per family. Because of this some European nations are likely to have Muslim majorities in the next decade. Malmo, third largest city in Sweden right across from Copenhagen, now is 45% Muslin. Another few percent and sharia law can be installed, a shocker for the passive Swedes who have welcomed the invasion. At least Denmark is pulling up the drawbridge!

But there is a factor that is likely to speed this along. Turkey has made application for membership in the EU. They seem to have met all of the qualifications, and it will be hard to keep them out for long. If  they become members, the borders to all other EU nations are immediately thrown open to free immigration from Turkey. This could tip the balance and quickly lead to Muslim majorities in many European nations.

Parts of Europe have fallen and will continue to fall to Islam. At first it will seem a benign form of Islam rising in these nations, but that will not last long. Muslims will not tolerate the level of perversion that is now common in Europe.

There will be an attempt by the Muslim leadership to cleanse these nations of the perversion and idolatry. This could become extreme and ruthless, and result in a war in Europe that could be even more devastating than the last two world wars.

Presently, EU political policy is leading the continent right into this trap, because they still have not learned that you cannot talk the devil out of being the devil. The price for not learning this after World War I was a war many times more devastating in World War II. This is the third time they have stuck to the same basic course, and could lead to an even more devastating conclusion than World War I or II.
