      The simple truth many have come to realize is a European leadership that insists mass migration is not a problem and head-in-the-sand denies the critical importance of cultural unity and shared identity for the maintenance of stable and liberal democracies is a much clearer and present danger than Russia.

      War a nation can recover from, but from an erosion of cultural unity and shared identity it cannot.

         Remind us what happened last time Europeans got too obsessed with cultural unity and shared identity?

            Are you saying the only conceivable policy positions are genocide and unchecked migration?

               I like that you said genocide and not me. But what I like more is enjoying the long slide into irrelevancy of opinions like the one you expressed in your original comment. I look forward to the day we can have constructive discussions about capital investment and migration which feature no mention of such puerile and ignorant notions of ethnicity and nationalism.

                  Irrelevancy? The opinions I expressed are ascendent and accelerating across the Western world.

                  Constructive, reasoned discussions on migration are precisely what have not occurred due to the dominant ideology stifling all contrary opinion.
