The problem here is ...Europe is gone soft and sick. The problem here is there are no decent right partys anymore. You have to go back to the mid 80's. With the arrival of new extreme-right partys. The left and the right made the compromise to do and say nothing in politics, which could sound or look like something from the extreme right. To tackle the extreme right, words and acts had to be Politically Correct. Else not good. Center-right moved aside center-left. Being afraid of named a VB, FN, which than was the same as being named a Neo-Nazi, the healty debate between opposite visions disappeared. Political Europe went sick and denied the signs of reality. To not play in the hands of the extr. right and his rascist talk, minoritys got extra advantages. For the left, this means it made alliances with the Islamist, because they were also radical anti-American. This resulted in a hughe flow of radical imams. They in their turn took hostage the whole immigrant population. The settlement in society became farther of then before. The left which took control of the Cultural sien, should have seen this. Violent demonstrations on Rai-concerts, other violence were a forebode of the intolerance they made alliance whith. That violence was societys fault. More money and mosquees would help integration. <BR/>Right could do anything else than follow, others: Politicilly Incorrect.<BR/>With the right partys held hostage by the left, the sickness went worse. Politics is only buzy with acting good. Not acting towards reality. <BR/>Extreme right partys grew in silence. VB, 24% of the votes in Flanders, Belgium. People can't escape reality, and when politics are denying. In Flanders this denial goes so far, exteme right is excluded from governing. On local level, with the growht, the extreme right is not so extreme anymore. Can they bring a solution? The top is still the same, and much totalitarian points got hidden. <BR/>I think It's gonna be up to AMerica to bring the solutionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19209018.post-1148580058483451412006-05-25T19:00:00.000+01:002006-05-25T19:00:00.000+01:00I'm guessing there are many British people who und...I'm guessing there are many British people who understand the problem. However, their voice is, as you note, not represented in the media whatsoever. <BR/><BR/>From what I can tell, blogging is becoming ever more popular in England, though, so things will, perhaps, get better gradually.<BR/><BR/>You know what is interesting to note. Blogging has really taken hole in Northern Europe, but not so much in the South; France, Spain, Italy, etc.<BR/><BR/>Why do you suppose that is?Pastoriushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03169561459129778670noreply@blogger.com
