The Elephant in the Room

The Brits have voted themselves out of a partnership with the European Union that they were only half-heartedly supporting in the first place. And everyone who feels this was a bad idea on their part pretends to be shocked, or at least much surprised. The established media, of course, now try to come up with explanations for the apparent stupidity of the British people. But there really is only one overwhelming cause to the result of the referendum, and that is the EU's disastrous handling of the so-called “refugee crisis” that has plagued Europe over the last few years. Without this predominating feature in the overall picture of discontent, there would have been considerably less support for the exit side; it is even unlikely that the British would have considered their own local politicians to be so much better than the ones in Brussels.   

So let's take a closer look at the elephant in the room. Everyone knows that only a fraction of the people seeking asylum in European countries are actual refugees from war zones. Yet, there has up to quite recently been absolutely no limit to the quantities of fanaticised Islamic peoples on the move which Western Europe is supposed to assimilate and digest within their social-liberal societies and economies.

This is a tremendous and wholly unnecessary burden on all European countries, and it could and should have been mitigated by meeting the real needs (as opposed to the alleged needs of three youth delinquents from Freetown, Sierra Leone) exactly where they occurred, that is, close to the borders of the countries currently torn apart by war. Some of the billions of Euros hitherto spent on asylum applications and lavish subsidies, could, and perhaps should, have been spent on creating refugee centres in Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, and Israel, offering a decent standard of living and adequate healthcare in the immediate vicinity of these wartime victims. But this did not happen. Instead, it was considered necessary to incite all these people on the move to actually invade Europe. And the Brits finally had enough of it. It really is as simple as that. At least as far as the result of the referendum is concerned.    

In preparation of this lethal political cocktail, the US and Israel, under the auspices of the catastrophic Bush administration, made everything they could to destabilise the entire Middle-East region and thus trigger the massive demographic changes we are witnessing today. Meanwhile, instead of simply wiping ISIS and other terror organisations off the face of the Earth by means of a land based invasion, both the US and Israel, and even Russia, have remained content to uphold some kind of status quo in the region where neither side ever seems to have a chance to win. Why?

Because there must have been an original plan to destabilise Europe too. Up to a point it proved successful and even seemed to work its way into the very heart of the old and tired democracies of the West. But the recent elections in Austria, the opinion polls in Holland, Belgium, Germany, Italy, France and Poland (no to mention Hungary and Slovakia), speak a different language. Not only England, but Europe by and large has had enough. It is now up to the EU to take immediate and draconic measures to stop the tide of Muslims into Europe. If this is not made, and made within the next months to a year, the whole Brussels House of Cards runs a very real danger of coming down in the same perfect foot prints as the Twin Towers of 9/11, thereby not only bringing along Juncker and Merkel, but the whole European political establishment, in the fall.
