Daniel And Matt Are Optimists, I fear. "Grim" Notwithstanding.

Too many of those in Eurabia who must do the responding when "the balance tips" are weak, superannuated has-beens or never-weres; and Europe's "Right" unfortunately, too often has the scent of Nazism, Totalitarianism, and anti-Semitism underlying or in close proximity to whatever their organizing issue happens to be.

Truthfully, I'm stunned that it has taken Europeans so little time to revert to the craven, sniveling swine they were during Hitler's "Becoming". They seem to have learnt nothing at all from two world wars; and somehow, while I never "blame America first", it's pretty clear we've been too indulgent, soft and kind to them. Does Germany pay 75% of the cost of American military in their country, as Japan does? [..serious question, I do not know].

Euro-folk seem indolent and infantilized. Over-dependency upon the America they love to hate and betray [they steadfastly refuse to pay for the equipment and personnel for their own military or to fulfill their NATO commitments], has rendered them totally dependent for security 60 years post-war.

As if this wasn't bad enough, they bite the hand that feeds them by working assiduously against our attempts at localizing Arab/Persian exported Islamism and Terrorism by fighting them in Afghanistan and Iraq. Their smarmy machinations always make America's job harder, and always cost us more in American lives and treasure to clean up, than they would had our "allies" not worked against us in the first place..

France, Germany and even Switzerland have continued aiding-and-abetting Iran's nuclear bomb programs and economy, with commerce, technicians and shipping disallowed, dangerous equipment to Iran [and Iraq before them], spending as much time getting around or blatantly violating the sanctions they worked so hard to undermine in the UN. We expect this from the new Russian Tsar and Chinese, but surely, we should be able to expect better from Old Europe.. or not.

It was not a pretty thing to watch our craven Brit "allies" flee to sinecures at the airport, leaving Basra and its people to Iran and it's Jihadi-animals. Now Americans have to die in Great Britain's "Area of Responsibility" to take back an area already taken, whilst "the cousins" cower in their bunks. Pathetic.

Just which Eurabians do Daniel and Matt expect to "stand up" to affect a viable response/defense to Europe's Islamization? And with what resources?
