One man’s xenophobia is another’s awareness
I read ‘Xenophobia In Europe’ on April 28 and could not help but notice that the author forgot to mention a key reason why Europeans are turning against Muslims: transnational Islamic terrorism.
Today's populism is about far more than the economic issues, which were highlighted in the article. It is about protecting a way of life that is evaporating in the stew of globalisation and, foremost, security. The notion that Muslims today are suffering like Jewish people did under Hitler only can be arrived at if one excludes transnational Islamic terrorism from the analysis.
Was it Jewish people who attacked the French capital? Is it Jewish people who have created ‘no-go’ zones in England, Belgium, and a host of European areas? Do Jewish people also demand to have 100 of their own courts in England, just as Muslims have 100 sharia courts that operate outside the scope of European law? One could go on but what this author calls ‘xenophobia’ I simply call ‘awareness’... that’s Latin for ‘reality’.
