European Union

The EUSSR Grows Bolder
Fjordman - 4/20/2008
Notice how this senior member of the European Parliament states that the media “must” engage in breaking down resistance to increased mass immigration to Europe. The fact that political authorities clearly view the media as just another arm of the transnational bureaucracy demonstrates just how far down the path of totalitarianism the European Union has already gone.

Soros, Europeans: Die Juden sind Unser Unglück!
Prof. Nicholas Stix - 4/19/2008
On November 9, 1938, and on through the following day and night across Germany and Austria, Nazi storm troopers smashed Jewish shop windows, looted the stores, and beat Jews in their homes and on the streets, murdering at least 91 Jews, arresting 26,000 Jewish men and boys, all of whom were sent to concentration camps, destroying over 7,000 Jewish businesses, and burning down 101 synagogues.

The storm troopers (Stürmer), also known as “brown shirts” for the uniforms they wore, hung posters in Jewish stores with the phrase, ...

European Leaders Agree to Create Eurabia
Fjordman - 4/14/2008
Bat Ye’or in her book about Eurabia documented how European leaders have for years been quietly planning to merge Europe with the Islamic world. This has been denounced as a “conspiracy theory.” Only a few months ago the British Foreign Minister David Miliband said openly that the European Union should expand to include the Muslim Middle East and North Africa. Now French President Nicolas Sarko...

Ten Reasons to Get Rid of the European Union — A First Draft
Fjordman - 1/30/2008
I intend to write a text called “Ten Reasons to Get Rid of the European Union” This text will be written with me as editor and contributor, but not necessarily sole writer. I will post some ideas here which can be expanded upon by blog readers. I will then post a second, more elaborate draft, make some changes to that, and then post the final version. It is my intention that this text should be translated into major European languages and be republished or reprinted in various EU countries. If you post comments here, you thus give your permission to allow your writings to be incorporated into this text and republished elsewhere.

EU's Misguided War On Terrorism
Alan Miladi - 1/29/2008
The EU is at complete loss on what to do with Iran. Iranian nuclear program, benign or not benign, is ticking forward. Another meeting of Javier Solana, the EU Foreign Policy Chief with Iranian nuclear negotiator in Brussels had the same result of dozens of similar meetings in the past 21 months: zilch.

A Blueprint for the Suppression of Dissent in Europe
Baron Bodissey - 12/19/2007
The disappearance of liberty in Europe will not be accompanied by the loud knock of a jackbooted thug at the front door. Basic freedoms are already being eroded imperceptibly by the European Union. The process has been going on for many years, drip by silent drip. In order to create Eurabia, the will of the people is muffled, suppressed, and discarded by the elites of the EU.

From Citizen to Subject — The Rule of Experts and the Rise of Transnational Anti-Democrats
Fjordman - 11/17/2007
At the end of the Cold War, Francis Fukuyama pronounced that we had arrived at “The End of History”, and that capitalism and liberal democracy would now be the only global system left. But when I look at Europe today, I see democracies under threat because of an elaborate Eurabian bureaucracy and Islamic fanaticism. I see countries unwilling or unable to defend themselves against massive immigration/colonization.

EU Reform Treaty: Will the 'Superstate' include both Germany and Russia, and should US and UK feel threatened?
Lorna Thomas - 10/18/2007
As European members gather at the Lisbon Summit on 18-19 October, Europe stands on the threshold of approving and later ratifying a Reform Treaty that includes the creation of powerful new leadership roles, which Chancellor Merkel has described as a 'political quantum leap for Europe'.

Cat Stevens Awarded EU Peace Prize (For Support of Rushdie Fatwah?)
Fjordman - 10/6/2007
Islamopop star Cat Stevens, aka Yusuf Islam, gets awarded a major Eurabian prize. This gives you some idea of just how vast and established the Eurabian networks are. They are unfortunately very real, not a conspiracy theory.

Why the Europeans Take Their Complaints about the Dollar to Beijing
Prof. Peter Morici - 10/5/2007
The euro has risen about 10 percent against the dollar and the yen over the last year, and this is giving European exporters and politicians fits. Predictably, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson is getting pressure from European colleagues to take action.

Europe Publishes List Of Experts To Advise On Sales Of Cloned Meat
Angelique van Engelen - 9/14/2007
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has published the details of the outside consultants it has agreed to work with on its study of cloned meat. If the outcome of study is positive, cloned meat could be in the supermarkets here before 2010.

EU and the Globalist Alliance
Fjordman - 8/13/2007
Here is an interesting comment about Multiculturalism posted at a website in, of all places, Bangladesh: “Multiculturalism is an unnatural and unhealthy condition that can only afflict countries in national decline. (…) Greed and corruption will characterise the government coupled with oppressive measures directed against its citizens. Lies and deceit will be the stock and trade of media, politicians, and educational institutions.” Multiculturalism “is used to prevent a national consen...

Why the European Union Must Go
Fjordman - 7/28/2007
At the EU Observer, Anthony Coughlan, a senior lecturer at Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland, notes that in every EU member state at present the majority of laws come from Brussels. Why do national politicians and representatives accept this situation? He suggests a plausible explanation:

The Twin Myths of Eurabia
Fjordman - 5/27/2007
Bat Ye’or is the most informed contemporary scholar of the unique Islamic institution of dhimmitude, the repressive and humiliating apartheid system imposed upon those non-Muslims (i.e., dhimmis) subjugated by Jihad. Sir Jadunath Sarkar, the pre-eminent historian of Mughal India, wrote the following in 1920 regarding the impact of centuries of Jihad and dhimmitude on the indigenous Hindus of the Indian subcontinent:

Towards an Islamist Totalitarian Europe
Fjordman - 5/17/2007
Former Soviet dissident Vladimir Bukovksy has warned that the European Union is on its way to becoming another Soviet Union. When people who have worked on higher levels in the EU system note similarities as well, it is time people start taking this idea seriously.

Europe: The Manic-Depressive Continent
Wolfgang Bruno - 5/15/2007
Everybody experiences their ups and downs. The unhealthy mood swings of people suffering from manic depression are far more extreme than those experienced by average people. Europe is probably the only case where an entire continent suffers from this condition.

The European Case for Israel
Wolfgang Bruno - 5/14/2007
The victory of Hamas in the Palestinian elections follows the election of a hard line president in Iran and the Jihad riots in France. Hamas is not part of a struggle for "national liberation," it is a part of a global anti-democratic movement that is now threatening to plunge the world into a devastating war. The Jihad has been simmering for years, but is now entering a phase of much more open hostility towards the infidels. Hamas is right: There is no peace process in the Middle East. There probably never was, but at least Israel is now faced with enemies, both among Palestinians and the Isl...

Time for European Parliament to Support Gender Equality: De-List Iranian Resistance PMOI
Professor Daniel M. Zucker - 4/13/2007
The recent statement by the European Parliament calling on the European Commission to give practical effect to “its roadmap for equality between women and men” rings very hollow as long as the EUP allows its Council of Ministers to defy the decision of the European Communities' Court of First Instance to de-list the Iranian resistance organization Mojahedin-e Khalq (PMOI) (which is a member of the National Council of Resistance of Iran) from its terror list. The Foreign Ministers’ continued effort to mollify the misogynist government of the Islamic Republic of Iran defies all logic except for...

A Question of Peace or War in Europe
Ron Janssen - 4/11/2007
In spite of days of controversy, today's signing of the "Berlin Declaration" went ahead without amendment. The pivot and crux of the controversy is the announcement of an intended replacement for the failed EU constitution which will have the same content under a different title and is to be ratified as quickly as possible. This arrangement has occasioned great displeasure in several European capitals. The most influential German think-tank, the Bertelsmann Foundation, maintains that European unification must be driven forward; the greatly contested EU constitution is to be merely the "point of departure".

Giving Ministers the power to decide EU crimes and penalty
Ron Janssen - 4/10/2007
Government Ministers and the EU to be given power to decide to have Irish citizens fined and imprisoned without any need for Oireachtas permission - a Power grab by the Government and Ministers

10 Points To Remember On 50 Anniversary Of Treaty of Rome
Ron Janssen - 4/9/2007
1. THE EU'S MYTH OF ORIGIN: The myth of origin of the EU is that it was a peace project designed to make war impossible between France and Germany. The truth is however that it was the American Government's insistence on German rearmament to meet the needs of the Cold War that precipitated the European Coal and Steel Community in 1950, which was the foundation of European integration. The pooling of coal and steel under a supranational authority, the precursor of the Brussels Commission, was crucial in overcoming French hostility to rearming its ancient enemy. Jean Monnet, America's man in the...

European Union Must Be Destroyed To Prevent 'Eurabia'
Fjordman - 3/15/2007
Many have already written off Western Europe as lost to Islam. I would be lying if I said that I didn't entertain the same thoughts sometimes, but I do see encouraging signs of a real shift of public opinion beneath the surface. Judging from information such as the extremely high number of Germans hostile to Islam, Europe can be saved. But this hope hinges on the complete destruction of the European Union. The EU must die or or Europe will die. It’s that simple.

Is Le Pen Right: Immigrants and the Fallacy of Labour Scarcity
Sam Vaknin, Ph.D. - 10/10/2006
Jean-Marie Le Pen - France's dark horse presidential contender - is clearly emotional about the issue of immigration and, according to him, its correlates, crime and unemployment. His logic is dodgy at best and his paranoid xenophobia ill-disguised. But Le Pen and his ilk - from Carinthia to Copenhagen - succeeded to force upon European mainstream discourse topics considered hitherto taboos. For decades, the European far right has been asking all the right questions and proffering all the far answers.

Battle Over Steel Exposes Europe’s Globalization Dilemma
Jonathan Fenby - 6/11/2006
Lakshmi Mittal is the very model of a globalized business tycoon. Having built a net worth estimated at $25 billion, the Indian businessman runs a worldwide steel empire, its operations stretching from the US to Kazakhstan, from Indonesia to Poland. His ambitions to grow even bigger, however, embroil him in a bitter fight with Western Europe’s largest steelmaker, which casts revealing, and sometimes uncomfortable, light on the continent – and France, in particular – as it seeks to come to terms with the tide of globalization that leaves many of its citizens deeply uncertain.

The Concert of Europe, Interrupted
Sam Vaknin, Ph.D. - 2/1/2006
"(Plan for establishing) an economic organization ... through mutual customs agreements ... including France, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Austria, Poland, and perhaps Italy, Sweden, and Norway".

Does Europe include Turkey, Americanization and Africanization?
Natalia Forrest - 10/26/2005
What does it mean to be a European? The European Union itself is grappling with this question for six months of debate, and finally this December a special conference on European values will be held in the Netherlands. But how relevant is this discussion for the EU? While the Dutch Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende "thinks that it is high time to confront questions such as 'what does it mean to be a European' in a serious way… there is a great danger that the lack of legitimacy of the EU will eventually lead to unpleasant situations, such as the disintegration of the EU"( Beunderman: 2004), ...

Winning the European CAP (Common Agricultural Policy)
Sam Vaknin, Ph.D. - 6/25/2005
According to a June 2005 OECD report, and contrary to popular, media-fostered impressions, farm subsidies are being phased out almost everywhere. Turkey is an exception. It spent in 2002-4 (wasted, more like it) more than 4% of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) on aiding and abetting its inefficient agricultural sector (compared to 4.3% in 1986-8).

Europe's Agricultural Revolution
Sam Vaknin, Ph.D. - 6/24/2005
The June 2005 budget summit in Brussels foundered on the issue of farm support and subsidies which now consume directly 46.2% of the European Union's (EU) funds. Tony Blair refused to let go of Britain's infamous rebate (amounting to two thirds of its net contributions to the community's coffers) unless and until these handouts (which Britain's dilapidated agriculture does not enjoy) are slashed. This followed close on the hills of the rejection of the proposed EU constitution in French and the Dutch referenda in May-June 2005.

Outlook Of EU International Relations
Angelique van Engelen - 6/6/2005
Europe's future international relations hinge on the outcome of the debate about what to do with the rejected constitution. During the upcoming 16-17 June EU summit, a start will be made tackling the most pressing issues. Should Europe's landscape change from a combined vast geographical area to individually portioned up countries again, this likely will overthow established international relations globally too.

EU Crisis: After the Debacle and Before the Storm
Prof. Norman Birnbaum - 6/2/2005
The unequivocal French rejection of the new European Constitution (over 50% "No" votes with electoral participation at 70%) anticipates the turbulence ahead in much of Europe. The vote represented a clear class division, with majorities against the Constitution in the working class (in factories and offices) and amongst voters for the Socialist, Communist, ultra-leftist, and Green parties. These voters were protesting unemployment, the removal of entire factories to cheap labor areas in the new European Union members in eastern Europe (or to Asia), and the threat to France's welfare state enta...

Euro and the History of Previous Currency Unions
Sam Vaknin, Ph.D. - 5/20/2005
"Before long, all Europe, save England, will have one money". This was written by William Bagehot, the Editor of "The Economist", the renowned British magazine, 120 years ago when Britain, even then, was heatedly debating whether to adopt a single European Currency or not.

Turkey: Europe's Dilemma?
Teymur Huseyinov - 5/4/2005
Until a few years ago most Western analysts regarded Turkey as a gray zone, a hopeless country drowning in the mud of its outdated political system and faced with a real danger of being cast into the fold of radical Islam. As I recall those times, I remember an interview with Zbigniew Brzezinski, the former US National Security Advisor and grandee of contemporary strategic thought, who stated that one of the unluckiest routes Turkey could follow would be to gain an image of an anti-European Middle Eastern country, or at least of a state rejected and totally disheartened by Europe. The argument...

Does Turkey Belong In the European Union?
Antero Leitzinger - 2/2/2005
Turkey applied for membership in the EEC as early as in 1970s, when she had been indisputably and for a long time a democratic market economy, one of the founding members of the Council of Europe, and a country with a decent record on human rights, compared with the military dictatorships of Greece, Spain and Portugal, let alone the countries of Eastern Europe. The upheavals of Southern Europe in the mid-1970s, the intensified internal political situation of Turkey, and the military regime of early 1980s, as well as the surprising membership of Greece in the Western European community sidelined Turkey for two extra decades to wait for acceptance.

Welcome To Europe!
Marc Johnson - 12/10/2004
To: New East European EU Members
From: "Old Europe"
CC: Malta, Cyprus
Subject: Rights and Responsibilities

Welcome, friends, to the European Union. In a sense you never left, but those Soviets kept you from participating in the real affairs of The Continent for quite a while. But it's good to have you back. When your celebratory hangover passes, we have a few things for you to think about:

The Economy. To be frank, we're in dire straits. GDP growth has slowed to a virtual standstill from Rome to Amsterdam, and the strong Euro is making it harder to sell goods to the Sche...
