Europe for Itself
Islamic terrorism is horrifying. It’s frequent worldwide. It’s effective. And it’s the least important part of the European debate about Islam.
With sufficient intelligence and resources, terrorism can be prevented as surely as any other crime. Presumably the French will be asking very soon why this particular attack was not thwarted and why police guarding such an obvious target were not even armed. To allow a terrorist attack is simply to admit a technical failure, to show an inability to meet a logistical challenge.
We can easily imagine a multicultural society where terrorism is rare or even entirely absent. After all, in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, pundits confidently predicted that terrorism would become part of the American way of life, the United States becoming a giant version of Israel. (Insert your own jokes here, my commenting friends.) As it stands, it’s not even an annoyance.
The American military and intelligence community has killed thousands of Muslims, including many innocents, in order to safeguard the “homeland.” And yet only a lunatic could deny that the American government has been actively promoting mass immigration from the Islamic world into White homelands, thus guaranteeing that the domestic terrorist threat will be a permanent one.
What’s more important than “fighting terrorism” is the end that Islamic terrorists seek. And whatever the specific demands about respecting their prophet or implanting sharia or whatever else, Islamic terrorists share a greater metapolitical goal--putting Islam at the center of European culture and law.
For that reason, we should perhaps be grateful that many Muslims can’t seem to stop themselves from threatening and murdering everyone who seems to annoy them. Such actions are the only way to get the consumers who occupy the West to look up from their football (both kinds) and booze, if only for a few moments. If jihadists could simply have controlled themselves for another decade or so, there’s little doubt they would have inherited the Old World without firing a shot. ...
