The nub of the problem: the African population is rising at an unsustainable rate

I guess you are shouting at your computer screen right now!  DUH! OF COURSE IT IS!

And, frankly, Europe, by allowing itself to be the pressure release valve for that expanding population is actually encouraging even further population growth there and in the Middle East.

Here is a picture worth a thousand words at Quartz.  It is to illustrate an opinion piece entitled:

We need to talk frankly about our rapid population growth in Africa if we want to beat poverty

No kidding and it better be more than talk!

You can read the whole thing yourself, but here is one small snip:

Based on current trends, Africa as a whole is projected to double in [population] size by 2050. Between 2050 and 2100, according to the United Nations, it could almost double again.

Once the migrant taxi service is stopped in the Mediterranean, the UN, the EU and African leaders better get to work on the African continent and stop being too chicken to address the population growth there.

By the way, the same goes for the US. Encouraging the flow of refugees from Africa to your US towns does nothing to help Africa get their population under control.

Obama lectures Europe: Integrate Muslims better (like we do!)

Update January 18th:  Here is Carol Brown writing about this dumb (and arrogant) comment by our Prez at American Thinker.  If you are wondering what the word “major” in the middle of the quote is all about, after listening to the comment, I realized that he is addressing CBS News White House correspondent Major Garrett.  So, it needs a capital ‘M.’

I have things to do, but can’t resist posting this from Drudge today before I get to other work!

And, Kerry brings James Taylor to Paris to sing, “You’ve got a friend!” Is this for real, or a promo for Saturday Night Live!

From AFP:  “Europe needs to better integrate Muslim communities: Obama.”

We know Presidents are isolated in that big ol’ White House in Washington, but this is too much!  And, the nerve!

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Europe must do more to better integrate its Muslim communities, and not “simply respond with a hammer”, US President Barack Obama said Friday in the wake of last week’s terror attacks in France.

Our biggest advantage, major, is that our Muslim populations – they feel themselves to be Americans,” Obama told a joint press conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron.

“There are parts of Europe in which that’s not the case. And that’s probably the greatest danger that Europe faces… it’s important for Europe not to simply respond with a hammer and law enforcement and military approaches to these problems.”

Our Muslim population just isn’t big enough to get too aggressive yet!  And, besides, if we are doing it right why did Obama just launch a refugee and immigrant integration task force?
