Why I believe Europe’s future is different than a Taliban-like state
This is not an topic I am fond of writing, but I feel like my mind would be more at peace if I broadcasted for others, specially those who share my political inclinations. But specially because it would put their minds at ease as well since they are more likely to be pessimistic than I am. That isn’t to say that my estimations are all that much better.
It’s expected by 2050 that Islam will become the largest religion of the planet. These numbers are largely attributed to demographics and Muslims having larger birthrate than other peoples – mainly because women have children at an much, much younger age. Considering how rampant the epidemic of Islamic extremism is throughout the modern world, people across Western conservatives, and Hindus and Buddhist nationalists throughout South Asia are alarmed by these prospects.
This is specially troublesome for Europe which has been suffering from a demographic crisis and their geographical position makes them vulnerable to immigration from Northern Africa and the Middle-East – the American continent and it’s peoples were blessed by a large ocean separating us from migrants. There are concerns that Muslims will ultimately replace the current European population, something which the establishment and specially liberals have done little if nothing to address this issue, except maybe accomodate for a future of dhimmitude (such as Sweden’s Green Party). Emboldened by this, Islamists openly talk about how their countries will be ruled by sharia law and it’s only a matter of time.
Needless to say, this is an very bleak topic to discuss since the transformation of Europe into a caliphate would not only destroy it’s heritage, but also the modern democratic institutions like freedom of religion, LGBT rights and separation of church and state so treasured by so-called liberals, who don’t seem to realize they are working for their own doom. What is even more disheartening is that most conservatives I have spoken to have simply accepted it as a defeat and given up on Europe because they are most likely to be punished by the establishment for voicing their criticism while enabling Islamists.
To be honest with you, it’s very difficult to see the worst scenario they have imagined playing out realistically simply because a caliphate governed by sharia that dismembers petty criminals or beheads heretics cannot be a viable long-term alternative to an Western republican/democratic society like in the US and Western Europe.
History has shown us that even the so-called “Rightly Guided” Caliphate formed straight after Muhammad’s death was plagued by infighting and chaos such as Abu Bakr fighting apostates by the thousands in order to get their zakat money while Uthman and Ali were assassinated by Muslim rebels. If Erdogan – the most likely person to declare himself “caliph” – were to do so, he’d be immediately challenged by other Islamist leaders and infighting would break out. Besides, one look at Afghanistan shows what Islamism does to a country – being run completely into the ground and reduced to a 7th-century no-man’s land.
Islamists delude themselves into thinking they are fated to be the eventual masters of the world to make up for the loss of Islam’s prestige in the past when they were more powerful than Christendom, but they are merely pawns of Globalists and their current position wasn’t earned by their own merit and merely enabled by entities like the European Union. Globalists and Islamists may share some similarities, the two states are at odds with each other considering Western governments have sworn to fight against terrorism and listed militant organizations as terrorists, which many Islamists sympathetic to militants take issue. I find hard to believe Globalists would simply open the way and let Islamists rule.
Despite sharing almost no similarities at first glance with the main topic, the current state of Mexico provides us with an lesson for when the state colludes with rogue elements that they should be opposed to. The Mexican drug cartels are perhaps one of the few organizations that can actually match Islamic militants in terms of violence and influence. It’s no secret that for the longest time, they have infiltrated the Mexican state despite waging a war against drugs. The situation came to a head in this year after the Battle of Culiacan where an actual confrontation between the Mexican army and the Sinaloa Cartel to free El Chapo’s son led to the army withdrawing and the prisoner being released after the criminals took countless civilians hostage.
That episode proved once and for all who actually controls Culiacan and that the Mexican government is too inefficient to exert their authority over them. It’s pretty safe to say that Mexico now is a little more than gangland governed more by warlordism than by the state, which is currently too weak or corrupt to handle them. Some would say that Sweden and Germany are on the trajectory to become like this if ever increasing “no-go zones” and Muslim populated slums are indication, where areas within their jurisdiction are governed by sharia.
The obvious difference between Islamists and Mexican cartels is that the latter are more content with their current position and have no interest in overthrowing the government so long as their interests are met. Islamists are compelled to seek power because they cannot stand not being in charge, so theoretically speaking we could see them seeking to take charge. However, indications have shown that despite the collapse of Sweden in light of mass immigration, Islamists are content with merely being granted special privileges by Globalists to appease them rather than being in control.
This is probably what the next state looks mind you. The future is uncertain and there is no saying if it will be enough for Islamists and I’ve been told that Lebanon could have been a plausible future where are part of an multi-confessional government, but given the country’s current state in the brink, an all-out war seems like an inevitable possibility. Beyond than this, I cannot say what would that entail: maybe the establishment of an Taliban state if the globalists were to collapse, but as mentioned before, Islamists are prone to infighting for the smallest of differences, so it’s unlikely that is an government that would last.
On a last note: Islam boasts increasing followers every year, but the reality is that usual reports do not register former Muslims – either atheists or Christians of Muslim background – since apostasy is a major taboo, so while we cannot know for sure the true number of genuine adherents of Islam, it’s probably not as big as it makes it out to be.
