Europe 2019: Another Year of Failed Multiculturalism

Europe 2019: Another Year of Failed Multiculturalism

Having covered Europe, and Germany in particular, since the day Chancellor Angela Merkel opened the continent to mass migration in the autumn of 2015, I often feel like a chronicler of doom. The multicultural utopia promised by the EU politicians and the media talking-heads has made way for the nightmare of Islamic terrorism, mass sexual assaults, and knife crimes of epidemic proportions. This year was no different. The compilation of my 2019 posts below reflects the grim reality that mainstream media chooses to deny.

This year too, the threat assessments made by the German and other European intelligence agencies fell on deaf political ears, with governments advocating the return of ISIS families, and allocating funds for counselling and welfare benefits to Islamist war criminals coming back from the Caliphate. The UK police struggled to deal with the surge of imported knife crimes on the nation’s streets. This year too, jihadi knife attackers targeted innocent people in London, Paris, and Berlin.

European Jews bore the brunt of Europe’s misguided immigration policies. With antisemitic violence hitting records since the collapse of Nazi Germany, a senior German official told the country’s beleaguered Jewish minority to stop wearing Kippah and other religious symbols on the streets to avoid antisemitic attacks.

I covered this unfolding nightmare in my posts throughout the year:

EUROPE’S POLITICAL SURRENDER

European mainstream politicians responded to the rising migrant crime and Islamic terrorism with more appeasement. Judges handed out light sentences, allowing potential murderers and rapists to walk free. European academicians backed them up by publishing ‘studies’ explaining away the surge in migrant crime, jihad terrorism, and Jew-hatred.

POPULAR BACKLASH

The people of Europe rose up to this state-organized madness, giving right-wing and anti-establishment parties their best result in the EU election so far. Patriotic, anti-EU parties did well in the national elections as well. Leaders of eastern Europe stood up to Brussels and Berlin, refusing to allow settlement of illegal immigrant in their countries despite threats of legal action and economic sanctions. With so much talk of gloom and doom, it was a delight covering the popular backlash on the European political stage:

BORIS BRINGS BREXIT CLOSER

This was also the year when Boris got us Brexit — well almost. While the British prime minister deserves much credit for getting the parliament to enact the will of the people, it was the EU’s insistence on open border immigration that brought many to the polling stations, first in the 2016 Brexit referendum and then in this month’s general election.
