His Story Is "Too Positive"

I can't help but feel sorry for Great Britain. Actually, this is a story about all of Europe, but this article provides a useful metaphor through the use of one hero that will never be known. There are some tragedies that you can't help but watch, but you don't want to get caught peeking. This spectacle with the BBC canceling a program "because it feared it would alienate members of the audience opposed to the war in Iraq" is a heartbreaking admission that the BBC's audience hasn't anymore a clue than the BBC does about their own dismal, sharia-infected future.

Amid the deaths and the grim daily struggle bravely borne by Britain's forces in southern Iraq, one tale of heroism stands out.
Private Johnson Beharry's courage in rescuing an ambushed foot patrol then, in a second act, saving his vehicle's crew despite his own terrible injuries earned him a Victoria Cross.

"Bush Derangement Syndrome" is now a contagion of global consequence. What Europe doesn't get, though, is that if Iraq falls, they, or their children will live under Islamic sharia law. If the trouble, sacrifice, and guidance of the most prosperous and powerful nation in the history of the planet isn't enough to grant them the chance at freedom, then the only possible conclusion is that Muslims generally simply reject the entire concept of liberty. If that is indeed the fate of Iraq, then the Muslims worldwide will follow that example. No one will step forward to risk anything for Muslims in Egypt, or Indonesia, or even France. And that's the rub.
Muslims - in EUROPE - are conceiving at a rate that is between three to six times the rate of Europeans! In thirty years Europe will have an ethnically ARAB majority.

New Discoveries At Stonehenge

More huge stones found in the vicinity of Stonehenge (radius of a couple of miles), revealed in recent digs, according to this National Geographic article .

The new discoveries suggest that many similar monuments may have been erected in the shadow of Stonehenge, possibly forming part of a much larger complex, experts say.

"I have never learned to fight for my freedom. I was only good at enjoying it.”

I remember seeing this quote in (I think) a Gates of Vienna post. But apparently The Anchoress also used it, and referred to it in one of her recent, excellent as usual , writings. It's a not very happy prediction of the demise of humanist, socialist Europe, in favor of an Islamic one from The Brussels Journal. Because of the undeniable and unstoppable demographic changes occurring there, Europe as we know it will be gone in 20 years.
