The United States is importing people with
a religious and cultural propensity to commit horrific acts of hatred and
revenge against Western Civilization. This is madness rooted in politics.
On November 28, Abdul
Razak Ali Artan, a Somali-born Muslim inspired by ISIS, went on a rampage
at Ohio State University. He injured 11 when he rammed his car into a group of
students with murderous intent and then immediately went on a knife attack
before campus security shot him dead.
No soon had this fanatic's body reached
room temperature then Stephanie
Clemons Thompson, employed as something called an “assistant director of
resident life a Ohio State,” started calling for sympathy and compassion for
Artan and lamented that he was taken out so quickly. In her Facebook
posing, Thompson refers to Artan as a "BUCKEYE, a member of our
family."
True, Artan was no doubt properly enrolled
at OSU, just as he was legally in the U.S., brought here as a refugee sponsored
by Catholic Charities. But although the i's may have been dotted, the t's
crossed, and all the technicalities satisfied, this man was never a Buckeye or
an American in any true sense. He was an alien in our society, brought here
perhaps with good intentions but with no critical thinking involved.
This incident at OSU is an example of the
Obama administration's reckless refugee resettlement policy. One has to wonder
how many others like Abdul Razak Ali Artan are here existing like
potential time bombs, ready to explode if America does not show what they
consider to be proper deference to them and their religion.
There can be no question that the current
refugee resettlement program is extremely risky. To understand why many people
in power support and defend it is to understand how far the madness of
multiculturalism and diversity has affected policy.
Multiculturalism is the belief that all
cultures are the same and should be placed on equal footing. It is a tolerance
for all values. At its beginning, even the strongest proponents of
multiculturalism never believed that multiculturalism was valid. They pushed
this philosophy so as not to appear to be overly condescending to those from,
shall we say, developing cultures. Think of it as a type of noblesse
oblige, if you will. But as is so often the case of those pushing
a false narrative, the multiculturalists came to believe their own propaganda
over time.
Now in elite circles, it's goodbye Washington,
Jefferson, Madison, and the Constitution and hello to diversity. And don't
think multiculturalism isn't buried within the motive of Hampshire College in
Amherst, MA to lower
the U.S. flag on campus after the election, restoring it after protests.
In the recent campaign, Hillary Clinton, a
person who came frighteningly close to being elected president, said she
thought that America's commitment to diversity is a reaffirmation as to who we
are as Americans. It is as if the American character is now to be defined by
its unlimited openness to diversity and to other cultures.
Judging from the actions of Democrat
politicians, immigrants who come here from Third World cultures and with Third
World mindsets are not expected to blend in. Heaven forbid, as that would be an
affront to their "dignity" and go against the grain of
multiculturalism. As a result, separate enclaves are popping up across the
country, even in the heartland. The Democratic Party celebrates Balkanization
as this enlarges their constituency base, never caring how it weakens overall
American culture and strength.
In a commencement address, Secretary of
State John Kerry echoed this theme. He lectured
Americans that we must be prepared to live in a borderless world, a
world that he and his fellow globalists are busily trying to construct.
And here, Kerry did not mean borderless in terms of only goods and
services and capital. He meant people, too. And John Kerry's position is in
full accord with the agenda of the globalist elite.
As Prof. Edward
J. Erler notes, taken to its logical conclusion, proof of one's true
commitment to diversity requires -- nay, demands -- that security and national
sovereignty be sacrificed for its sake. In the distorted minds of
the elite, one way to do this is to open the flood gates to people who are
alien to our values and harbor at the very least a latent hostility to the
American way of life. Frau Merkel of Germany is the ultimate example of this
form of national suicide. Prof. Erler's point is that massive overdosing
on multiculturalism and diversity goes a long way to explain why refugees from
Islamic terrorist areas are not being vetted before gaining entrance to the US.
Of course, the commitment of the elites to
multiculturalism smacks of hypocrisy. When you consider that among all of us,
they are the most insulated from the adverse affects of their insane policy,
due to their wealth and power. One has to wonder what the elite reaction would
be if Muslim terrorists periodically ran amok in murderous rampages in the
Georgetown section of Washington, D.C. or at Harvard, Princeton, and Yale, the
inner sanctums of the elite, instead of at a state university catering to the
middle class.
So it is in this poisonous environment of
multiculturalism über alles that the likes of a thoroughly
brainwashed university administrator can openly grieve over the passing of
Abdul Razak Ali Artan, the terrorist at Ohio State.
With the election of Donald Trump and a
Republican Congress, America dodged a bullet. There is now a chance for sanity
to prevail regarding immigration. But draining all the politically correct
swamps at universities and colleges across the country where all must bow
before the idols of multiculturalism and diversity will take more than a
new president to accomplish. But it must be done. Mitch
Daniels atPurdue University is
an example of
how to push back the multicultural madness. And when this process begins in
earnest, don't be surprised at what crawls out.
