Will someome just bitch slap some sense into Tom Friedman? In his latest column, he talks about "moderate Arabs". BWAHAHAHAHA! Isn't moderate Arab an oxymoron? Midway through the column I came to this gem:
So what to do? A lot of help can and should come from Europe. Although America is often the target, Europe has been the real factory of Arab-Muslim rage. Europe has done an extremely poor job of integrating and employing its growing Muslim minorities, many of which have a deep feeling of alienation. And Europe has done a very poor job of investing in North Africa and the Middle East — its natural backyard
Integrating Muslim minorities? Tom, I got some news for you. You cannot integrate people who do not want to be integrated. These buttwipes have left their own sorry excuses for countries, but have brought along the culture that caused those countries to fail. They do not want to be integrated. They want to keep their beliefs that women are inferior and need to be covered from head to toe by a fucking tent. They then take out their rage on women who don't and rape them. Their excuse is to blame the women for not wearing modest clothing.
And I blame this lack of integration on the multiculturists, those liberal assholes who preach that all cultures are equal. Yeah, western democracies are equal to hell holes where women are inferior and can be stoned for adultery.
Here in the United States, the liberal multiculturists gave us bilingual education. Now that is a real impediment to integration and assimilation. One of an immigrant's first priorities when moving to a new country should be to learn the language. But that's not what the do gooder multiculturists think. They think that educating them in their own language will help them enter our society. They are wrong! Not learning English keeps them in low paying menial jobs.
The best way to learn a new language is by total immersion. Children can pick up a language faster than adults and the sooner they start, the better. Bilingual education is counter productive. It harms the people it should be helping.
Throughout the history of the United States, the first generation of immigrants would arrive in many cases speaking little or no English. The children would pick up English in school. Our culture would absorb their culture, but would not eliminate it. That is why we celebrate Columbus Day with the Italians. We celebrate St. Patrick's Day with Irish. We celebrate Octoberfest with the Germans. We celebrate Chinese New Year with the Chinese. We celebrate our ethnic roots, but, all these people learned English and integrated themselves into American society.
The multicultural dipshits, in the name of Diversity (All Hail Diversity!) want to balkanize this country. They are trying to stop what made this country great. They are trying to eliminate the melting pot.
I hope they don't succeed.
