POX Americana

Pax Americana: A term applied to the concept of relative peace in the Western Hemisphere and later the world as a result of the preponderance of power enjoyed by the United States beginning around the middle of the 20th century. (Wikipedia)

Europe and much of the free world benefited from PAX Americana...

But now, we all suffer under POX Americana, a new era of toxic malfeasance ushered in by President Bush and brought to a full and pungent florescence by Obama's JV Team, led by John F. Kerry.

We can also thank the international firebugs and merry mischief-makers in Obama's Amateur Warlord Club, led by Hillary Rodham Clinton, Susan Rice and Samantha Power, dunces all.

God rest your soul, Ambassador Stevens.  Was it simply Hillary's incompetence, or her callous disregard for your security requests, or something more sinister?  At this point, "What difference does it make?"

"Some people just want to see the world burn..."

Next, here's Hillary, a supposedly smart and serious person summing up the Obama Administration's brand of Chaos Theory.  Push PLAY, it's only 12 chilling seconds long...

We don't need a recap of the Bush-Cheney-Rumsfelt Triumvirate's crimes...

Obama has already enumerated them, laid the blame, and apologized.  Then he quickly set about beating Bush's record for murder by drone, including ordering the assassination of an American overseas.

Other Obama Administration "Accomplishments"...

* The Obama administration was for the Muslim Brotherhood tipping over Egypt before it was against it.

* Destroyed Libya and turned it into another terrorist haven ala Somalia.

* Turned a blind eye to the Persian Spring, which the mullahs quickly snuffed

* Drew "Red Lines" in dry erase marker.

* Abandoned Iraq (yeah, yeah, yeah, Bush left the SOFA treaty undone, but Obama was happy to run away as fast as he could).

* After abandoning Iraq, Obama quietly sneaked US troops back in there (without a SOFA), so we're now teamed with Iran

* Destabilized Syria, and equipped, trained and armed the "good" terrorists who then took all those American-supplied goodies to ISIS.

* Dithered and blathered while ISIS metastasized

* Obama's "success story," Yemen, is in revolutionary flames as a result of his fumbling fudpuckery there...

* Failed to anticipate and care for the millions of refugees his bungling bastardry caused...

Refugee Chaos in Lesbos

POX AMERICANA

Europe suffers under its worst refugee crisis ever as a direct result of US foreign policy failure, and specifically that of the Obama Administration, including Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Europe doesn't need any more US "leadership" like this, and neither do We The American People.

Muslims Immigration: Even Open-Minded People Think it's a Bad Idea

This is a reprint from 2009.  I thought I'd run it since my last post on Islam in America got such a response.  As AOW concluded, immigration policy is something we can and must get control of.  Stop importing people who hate us and who have a history of spawning children who will grow up here and end up hating us... --Silverfiddle

** Unhinged DeviledEgg Rant Alert! ** 

If the thought of an "honor killing" on American soil doesn't disgust you and make you boil with patriotic rage, you're brain dead! 

I live in Europe, I've lived in North America, and I've lived in that armpit they call the Middle East. No contest which I think is better!

Close The Damned Gates!

Why the hell do Western nations continue to allow these troublemaking Muslims to immigrate? Look at a map.  Wherever there's trouble, angry turbaned men with beards are involved.

Our cultures are incompatible.  We enjoy pork bbq and beer, use toilet paper and refrain from female genital mutilation, for example.

Many Muslim immigrants refuse to assimilate, and the only way to have peace here in the West is to give in to their fleck spittled agitations at the expense of our cultural norms.  Not while I have breath in my body!  Better to close the gates!

ISLAM IS A RELIGION OF PEACE!!! DISAGREE AND I'LL KEEEEL YOU!!!

Unlike the DeviledEgg, foreign editor of The Australian Greg Sheridan is no xenophobe, but he declares, "Uncontrolled Muslim Influx a Threat to the West."

It is extremely difficult to talk honestly about Muslim immigration. All generalisations about it are subject to countless exceptions. Muslims are very different from each other.

Most are reasonably successful. But a much bigger minority end up with social, political, extremist or other problems resulting from a lack of integration than is the case with any other cohort of immigrants in Western societies. A lack of honest discussion about this results in bad policy.

He goes on to recommend a book by Christopher Caldwell, Reflections on the Revolution in Europe: Immigration, Islam and the West.

Jacob Laksin at City Journal recommends the book as well.

Polls show that some 70 percent of Britons believe that there are too many immigrants in their country. Majorities throughout Western Europe agree, and Muslim immigrants in particular are viewed with suspicion.

Europe is a Benignly Racist Continent
 
Despite the finger-wagging at America, many Europeans are fundamentally and unconsciously racist and insular. Here in Germany, people from the next village over are considered outsiders, fellow German speakers from Austria are treated as the enemy, and those who hail from farther afield have no hope of ever fitting in in the land of beer and bratwurst. 

Europeans are in a jam, trying to steer a course between the Charybdis of bigotry and the Scylla of cultural destruction. Worse, the entire continent is in denial. Muslims are to blame as well, especially when they display open contempt for their new home:

Yet the immigrants themselves are far from faultless. One of the immigration debate’s inconvenient truths is that Muslim immigrants have been so difficult to assimilate into European societies because they’re unwilling: many Muslims simply choose religious ties over national loyalties.

... 31 percent of British Muslims felt they had more in common with the people of Muslim nations than with their fellow Europeans.

I hope the US can learn the right lessons from Europe's immigration debacle. Reading Caldwell's book would be a good start, but cutting off all Muslim immigration is imperative.

I've got to stop now, that guy shouting from the tower is giving me a headache!

The DeviledEgg is prone to unhinged rants, childish outbursts, and fits of anger, but he's really a good egg once you get to know him. He is half German and half American and splits his time between the two countries. Western Hero is proud to add him to the team.
