A Review of Eurabia
A Review of Eurabia
DISENGAGEMENT AND TROJAN HORSES, A POSTCRIPT
by Prof. Eugene Narrett
I have been studying the riveting recent work, Eurabia (2005) of historian Bat Ye'or which is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand geopolitics and Israel's increasingly beleaguered position and retreats these past three decades. Indeed, the sources discussed in the work not only document the EU's explicit, conscious alliance with Islamic states in destroying Israel but are prescient in explaining the events of this season, month, week, day.
One of the main points made in "Disengagement & Trojan Horses" was the mass media barrage of lies organized and deployed by the powers (I spoke mainly of America) in regards to issues of middle east "peace," in stifling historical truths and dissenting voices, and in dumbing down and anaesthecizing the population. Bat Yeor is masterful on detailing how this has worked in Europe, driven by Arab diktats, for thirty - five years as the following passages indicate. They are from her chapter seven, "The political alignment of the European Community" and they summarize what she has been demonstrating, and the sources she has been quoting and discussing in the previous five chapters.
"Strong ties were forged between the OIC, the Arab and European states as well as factions of the Left, the Vatican, and the World Council of Churches. [This] led, under Arab threats to Israel's demonization at all levels of European society as well as international bodies. This Euro-Arab collusion appears mainly in Arab texts; in Europe it is carefully disguised as a humanitarian concern for 'the suffering Palestinians'....' [For this,] Israel's metaphysical identification with evil had to be constantly stressed...
"The coalition of churches and mosques, of European and Islamic states [in the 1970s-80s]was cemented in a joing attack against four million Jews living on less than half of their historical land, survivors of the tyranny of both [Europe and Islam].
"The militancy of the Euro-Arab networks [created a] context of
international toleration of terror in which several governments connived [again, note well the current Able Danger revelations and the text of journalist Jayna Davis]. This planted the seeds of dhimmitude in Europe and accelerated the disintegration of the dhimmi Eastern Christian communities of the Middle East. This went largely unnoticed due to European compliance with the Arab/Islamic propaganda war against Israel.
Distinguished authors and intellecturals who wrote against and denounced the violent upsurge of Judeophobia couldl not prevail against the perversion of truth fabricated by governmental bodies at the highest levels."
Bat Yeor's footnote on this point is valuable. the situation is known to writers and academics in America and elsewhere who have exposed the lethal medacity of the Eurabian program: loss of jobs in academia and the media, inability to get articles published even by very well known authors or ms that document issues of major concern (as Jayna Davis found out in her experience with the FBI regarding "The Third Terrorist").
The situation is precisely what Orwell described in "1984" and summarize in a chilling formula in chapter 7 of that work: "the past was erased. The erasure was forgotten. The lie became truth."
Bat Yeor continues her summary discussion of how European "governmental bodies [and media] at the highest levels became Trojan Horses for the flood of Islamic propaganda and muslims into Europe and the harnessing of European media to its agenda.
"Beginning in 1974, radio, television, the press and UN educational publications including those of UNESCO spread anti-Zionist dogma worldwide. They emphasized the 'Zionism = Racism" charge..." In this "targeted" multi-faceted effort, "France became the engine of Arab League strategy." Quoting historian Robert Wistrich, she continues, "the French televisual media created a climate of misinformation and unprecedented hostility toward Israel with a ceaseless use of emotionally charged holocaust terminology [aimed at Israel] that intensified antiSemitic sentiment that had never altogether disappeared... The Soviet bloc add its own legends of fascism and Zionism... [Thus], the deligitimization of Israel was gradually integrated into Europe's strategic and economic interests... Intellectuals, writers and clergymen who dared to defend Israel were silenced and dismissed from their posts. Their manuscripts and articles were refused...
"On June 9, 1982, following the start of Israel's war on the PLO in Lebanon, the EU decided to put pressure on Israel" and freeze financial initiatives. "However, no pressure was applied upon Syria and the PLO.
This kind of inequity was commonplace..."
It is terrible and also ironic that European governments, media and school systems on every level have become a Trojan Horse for venting Arab- Islamic aggression and propaganda into the world. For Europe itself, shackled by politically correct [ie. Stalinist] platitudes has opened its own belly to an influx of virtually unrestricted Islamic immigration not unlike, but far more dangerous than the virtually unrestricted immigration through America's southern borders as America's elites follow the European model, even while jousting to lead the NWO.
It cannot and it will not come to good.
By all means acquire and study the texts of Bat Yeor, beginning with the penetrating, wonderfully detailed discussion of Euro-Arab complicity and convergence in Eurabia (2005).

Europe has always been slow in reacting.
Back in the 1930s Europe ignored the threat of fascism and let the Spanish Republic down.
Many years passed and only months after the rebels of general Franco won the civil war, helped by Hitler and Mussolini, did WW2 begin.
But I am confident that European civilization will react, the question is, what about those Trojan horses?
How much damage will they inflict in the meantime?

I regularly write about events in EUrabia at http://mnblogger.com - I'm not very optimistic on Europe's ability to remain a Western Civilization.

The book "Eurabia" is just one of many = recent = books being written. The book does not address geopolitics. Israel's situation was jelled even prior to the Evian Accord (June, 62) when France left Algeria and phased out it's political relationship with Israel.
The geopolitics has easy to grasp themes; wars of national liberation and oil being 2 prominent matters. Post WWII western Europe was not in complete control during the Cold War. West Germany was not a sovereign.
What's going on now was cast at the end of the Cold War and readily tracable to the Atlantic Alliance victory in WWII. US domestic politics already absorbs the US Jewish electorate as an adversary of the Republican Party.
Reading Bat Yeor's "..Israel's metaphysical identification with evil..." and "emotionally charged holocoast terminology" reminds me of Bill L's warning that a good defense is needed and this does not consist of calling a brutal murder an "honor killing". Of course there's a "mass media barrage" successfully attacking Israel. America's Jews help fund some of this. Look at the policy positions announced by the constituent member organizations of Council of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations.
Eurabia is only a manifestitation of the problem. Western Europe is in more debt than debt laden USA. Who supports overpriced gasoline and heating oil?
For clarity we need not address the specifics of Britain's withdrawal "East of Suez" and the modern welfare state generating a much larger role in oil politics than assigned the pay later programs.
In retirement PM Begin met with former Member of the Knesset Menachem Porush. Only the Prime Minister's response to a question is needed:
"You will recall that during the Second World War, Ibn Saud of Saudi Arabia visited the late President Roosevelt, and the media reported that within five minutes, Ibn Saud had brought President Roosevelt around to his way of thinking. President Roosevelt was a highly intelligent person, while Ibn Saud was known not to be in that category. So how was he able to convince President Roosevelt within five minutes to accept his way of thinking about the complicated Plestinian problem involving Jews and Arabs? The answer is that Ibn Saud simply said:'Mr President, if you do not take a pro-Arab position, we will stop providing you with oil..."

Israel's role in allowing anti-Israel forces and propaganda flourish is equally important.
Israel's foreign policy is not policy at all. The "policy" stopped from existing since about 1982, or somewhere in the mid-80s. The "policy" is controlled by US.
All Israeli governments since mid-80s turned into US puppets, zombies.
It became a cancer of Israel's politics.
The governments lost the self-respect, the pride of being a Jewish government of The Jewish state. The politicians have learned how to lie, they learned that corruption can and will speed up their careers.
The brainwashed zombies of the "peeeeceNow" added their own venom onto the Israeli public by spreading lies and misinformation about Judea, Samaria and their "palestinian" "brother&sisters" .
So, in this context, Israel not only did nothing, but didn't want to do anything to confront the islamic-european poison.
Instead of being agressive, Israel was and continue to be like a small child asking the big brother, US and eurabia,.."am I doing the right thing ?..."
When anybody have seen any Israeli diplomat appearing on TV in north america in the last few years ?
Do these "diplomats" exist ?
Are they really "diplomats"
If they exist, what is their job ?
and HOW they got their jobs ?
with the last question - there is no doubt HOW they got their high paying jobs.
