I blame globalization

Globalization is an economic and cultural phenomenon. One of the aspects of globalization is economic immigration. If you go to Nigeria today, it is all African. If you go to Turkey, it is all Turkish. If you go to China, it is all Chinese; if you go to India, it is all Indian. But, if you come to Europe, sometimes you think you are in Arabia. This is globalization. Well, this is one of the effects of globalization.

Multiculturalism goes hand in hand with globalization. The ideology of multiculturalism goes hand in hand with the economic exploitation of non-Europeans. Let us face it: we didn't allow millions of non-Europeans into Europe, because we wanted to build a fantastic multicultural society. We wanted cheap labour. On the other hand, we are economically dependent on Muslim nations for petrol. It is all this economic inter-dependence that has created a massive risk for European society.
