[. . . . ] Britishness was far more of a genuinely multicultural identity than the yawning we-are-the-world nullity of modern multiculturalism.

[. . . . ] The only thing these guys have going for them is our undervaluation of ourselves and perverse boosting up of them. By pretending that all cultures are equal, multiculturalism doesn’t ‘preserve’ traditional cultures so much as sustain them in an artificial state that ensures they’ll develop bizarre pathologies and mutate into some freakish hybrid of the worst of both worlds. [. . . . ]

Lengthy, full of detail and definitely worth reading -- if only to find out who is/are "kookier than the most in-bred backwoods up-country yakherd."

Steyn is not pc and I love him for it.

Via Jack's Newswatch -- Also, see in the same post, RSS (Really Simple Syndication) Aug. 22, 05. It sounds useful.




All men are not equal -- There should be no agonised debate: Britishness is best Mark Steyn, The Spectator, July 30th 2005

‘If you’re looking for “root causes” for terrorism, European-sized welfare programmes are a good place to start. Maybe if they had to go out to work, they’d join the Daily Mirror and become the next John Pilger. Or maybe they’d open a drive-thru Halal Burger chain and make a fortune. Instead, Tony Blair pays Islamic fundamentalists in London to stay at home, fester and plot.’

I wasn’t the first to notice the links between Euro-Canadian welfare and terrorism. [. . . . ]
