The Real Suicide Bomb
This political "toon" is based on Mark Steyn's column on multiculturalism :
It has been sobering this past week watching some of my "woollier" colleagues (in Vicki Woods's self-designation) gradually awake to the realisation that the real suicide bomb is "multiculturalism". Its remorseless tick-tock, suddenly louder than the ethnic drumming at an anti-globalisation demo, drove poor old Boris Johnson into rampaging around this page last Thursday like some demented late-night karaoke one-man Fiddler on the Roof, stamping his feet and bellowing, "Tradition! Tradition!" Boris's plea for more Britishness was heartfelt and valiant, but I'm not sure I'd bet on it. The London bombers were, to the naked eye, assimilated - they ate fish 'n' chips, played cricket, sported appalling leisurewear. They'd adopted so many trees we couldn't see they lacked the big overarching forest - the essence of identity, of allegiance. As I've said before, you can't assimilate with a nullity - which is what multiculturalism is.Be sure to read the entire piece and next time you're at the airport, when you see the old lady in the wheelchair being patted down, or the blond bombshell singled out for closer scrutiny, or the former vice president randomly picked for inspection, just remember it's the fallacious philosophy of multiculturalism and its heinous twin brother, political correctness, that promotes this egalitarian falderal. It's bogus feelgoodism at its worst that only serves to weaken our resolve. Earlier this week, I posted Diana West's piece, Facing hard facts, which relates to the multicultural misinformation brouhaha. If you missed it, don't miss it again!
