" US citizens have a duty to take a stand against the racist and demeaning travel ban,
Obviously that is just your opinion. Given that islam is not a race and the intent of the EO is to limit access to a subset of the population of the affected countries that wish to do harm to the US and its citizens why do Americans have a duty to stand against this temporary travel ban?

"..destruction to the western "civilized" way of life will be achieved not by Islamist terrorists and spread of alien cultures but by western the reaction to them."
Wishful thinking. . .. Islam will not get a chance to destroy Western civilization. It has taken a mere 16 years since 9/11 for Western citizens to awake in increasingly large numbers to the true aims that this insidious cult has and the methods it uses to further those aims. Now there is an unstoppable and increaasing groundswell against the cult in virtually all Western nations. And the Russians and Chinese have no great love for the ridiculous beliefs and dangerous behaviours of many of its adherents both within and outside their respective borders. And India? Forget it. The West has been through too much in its history to be put off balance in any meaningful way by some seriously deranged islamic fundamentalists and those with just a little more self-awareness but who still who know exactly what mohammed wants them to do.

"Reaction is spreading all over Europe now, with no country being immune."
Common sense has no geographic boundaries.

Because the opposition to the far right can not disappear without repression, "
Lazy thinkers label anyone against the infiltration of islam as 'far right'. I'm certainly not 'far right'. Neither are any of a dozen friends and aquaintances who concur on this point. We all vote for parties across a broad spectrum. So 'far right' is a complete misnomer.

" I also fear radicalization of the native left and muslims. If center does not hold and elites collapse, radical forces of all stripes will take over. Violence and repression looms."
Don't worry - it won't be anything like Tripoli, Baghdad, Cairo, Damascus etc,
