Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War!

Paul Craig Roberts

The end of sovereignty?

Tyranny is coming to Europe in the form of a new multicultural empire.
Ancient sovereign states, such as England and France, and newer ones, such as
Germany and Italy, are to cease to exist, and to be folded into a European
superstate. National existence is targeted for extinction by about 2006,
followed by national consciousness. Preparing the British for their demise as
a people, Foreign Secretary Jack Straw wrote in The Independent on Nov. 22
that "in a world where states and the interests of their citizens are so
obviously interdependent, we need to rethink our attitudes to concepts like
'independence' and 'sovereignty'."

Prime Minister Tony Blair agrees. The war against terrorism, he says, has
made national sovereignty out-of-date.

If you think these are weak arguments for giving up the nation-state, you
have a point. The basis for successful political life is a common language,
history and culture, which create "a people" sufficiently cohesive for
democracy or self-rule to arrive at compromises that reconcile conflicts.

When multicultural diversity replaces "a people," cohesion must be provided
by coercion.

Coercion is the response to the massive Third World immigration into European
nation-states. The erosion of "a people" by diversity has evoked tyrannical
laws in an effort to coerce an artificial commonality.

Great Britain, for example, no longer consists of its indigenous peoples:
English, Scots and Welsh. Britons are having to make room for large numbers
of Africans, Indians, Arabs and Pakistanis. Shear numbers and victim-group
status impede assimilation, which, in turn, both impedes the immigrants'
progress and fosters resentment by diluting British culture.

The consequence of non-assimilation is racial inequality. The Labor Party has
responded by blaming "racism." On Dec. 6, the government implemented
draconian "race equality" laws. Public, private and voluntary organizations
are under statutory obligation, policed by the Commission for Racial
Equality, to produce racial equality in employment, college admissions,
school performance, disciplinary proceedings, pay, benefits, facilities -- in
short, a thoroughgoing quota system.

Gurbux Singh, chairman of the Commission for Racial Equality, called the
legislation "a powerful lever for change." In effect, British culture has
been declared unfair, because immigrants who do not assimilate are
disadvantaged.

Europe is as overrun with Third World immigrants as Britain. Some German
Social Democrats favor immigration as a way of diluting the German
population, thereby diminishing "the worst characteristics of the nation" --
in other words, as a way of de-Germanizing Germany. Proposals are afoot to
give the same state subsidies to Islamic cultural organizations as German
ones receive.

Dilution of national cultures by immigration is the basis for the European
Union. A weakened sense of nationhood in Britain, France and Germany means no
effective opposition to bureaucratic rule by the European Commission in
Brussels.

In order to criminalize national patriotism and opposition to immigration,
the European Union is pushing forward legislation that makes xenophobia and
racism crimes. Once this legislation passes, a European who, for example,
criticizes immigration as an anti-diversity measure that is wiping European
civilization off the face of the earth, can be found guilty of racism and
sentenced to two years in prison.

Similarly, persons who oppose EU measures as contrary to British values or
French culture can be imprisoned for xenophobia.

Hand-in-hand with the criminalization of national identity goes the European
arrest warrant. Once in effect, an Englishman could be extradited to Greece
and put on trial for offenses that are not crimes in England.

No finer recipe for oppression could be devised. The oppression will be felt
most keenly by the British, for it is the liberties protected by their unique
legal system that will be lost. Oppression leads to civil war, not European
unity.

The United States, of course, is on the same path. In fact, it began here
with coerced racial integration by judicial decree, a "civil rights act" that
destroyed freedom of conscience and substituted coercion for persuasion, and
unconstitutional racial quotas that destroyed equality in law.

In the United States, Europe, Canada and Australia, white governments are
responding to the postwar propaganda about "racist white hegemonic culture"
by disadvantaging the white populations and diluting the "hegemonic culture."
In the United States, the melting pot has been evicted by the slogan,
"Assimilation is racism."

If the melting pot is dismissed as racist, it must also be racist to question
immigration. In the United States, only one side of the immigration debate is
permitted -- the side that calls for more immigrants. In Europe, there will
soon be no debate at all.

As the United States and European governments are committed to national and
cultural suicide, what is the point of defense budgets? Shouldn't the money
be used instead for payments to make amends for having once had a hegemonic
national identity?
