Kevin Myers: term ‘asylum-seekers’ rings all the liberal bells

Irish columnist, Kevin Myers, has a good column in the Belfast Telegraph yesterday pointing out the idiotic ‘diversity uber alles’ suicidal actions of western countries happily transforming illegal aliens into ‘asylum seekers’ and welcoming them.  Meanwhile, many countries in the world are off limits to white people.

Whereas it would have been possible for Caucasians to have visited almost anywhere in the globe in relative safety 25 years ago, there are at least a dozen countries where kidnap and or death would be the immediate reward for the white outsider. |This barren crescent reaches round much of the globe and includes large parts, or all, |of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Yemen, Saudi, Somalia, Sudan, Egypt, Algeria, Gaza and Morocco.

And Western Europe, in all its sublime intelligence, has made a point of accepting huge numbers of immigrants from these countries. Wherever they were not accepted as ‘immigrants’, they promptly turned themselves into ‘asylum-seekers’, a legal camouflage that was promptly accepted by a generally witless media.

‘Illegal immigrant’ gets no tearful headlines, but ‘asylum-seeker’ rings all the liberal bells so that suddenly ‘asylum-seekers’ they then became.

Saudi and Somali ‘asylum-seekers’ have been a primary source of terrorist activity in Britain. In Holland, Moroccans ditto.

He asks, when is the last time you saw some Muslim country invite diverse peoples to come live among them?

This is all part of a collapse of cultural and ethnic self-confidence in Europe. No Asian, African or Arab city feels the necessity to complete its cosmopolitan image by importing hundreds of thousands of foreigners.

Tokyo, Peking, Bombay, Madras, Cairo and Lagos are ethnically pretty much the same as they were half a century ago.

But in Europe, it is now obligatory for any self-respecting modern city to have a large proportion of its population from other continents. This is called ‘diversity’.

And an ideologically multicultural state like Britain has set itself ‘diversity targets’, which reward visible displays of ethnic difference and punish their opposite.

Read it all.

Along these same lines, see Brenda Walker’s VDARE article on how chicken Europe has become in the face of Muslim immigration, here.

By the way, we just told you two days ago that asylum-seekers are on the rise, here.  Most are from Muslim countries seeking entry into western countries.
