This is what happens when a nation sells out its sovereignty to a higher beauracratical process. The EU is now set to spank France for making a sovereign decision. Whether it was right or wrong, humane or inhumane, isn't my point. The fact is, EU one size fits all globalization is nuts. These people don't represent anyone. God help the world as it falls into chaos because we are led by morons.

It is true that Europe has disturbingly ugly history of 500 years of colonialism and racism. I am however inclined to think that things will get great deal scarier and uglier in the United States before things get very bad in Europe. I can easily imagine in 2012 presidential candidate and potentially President Sarah Palin running the most powerful country in the world. It is pity that RT and Robert Bridge have missed to report last night’s shocker: the election of an extremist right wing Tea Party Congressional candidate and now a Congresswoman Christine O’Donnell from the Joe Biden’s state of Delaware! But of course, Robert Bridge is committed to Obama’s hope imperial lite U.S imperialism that included “soften” up Russia “reset” and potential “deep embrace” with the U.S imperial project. In my view, there is greater chance of President Palin and VP Glenn Beck running the U.S empire before President Geert Wilders is elected in Europe. As for Nicolas Sarkozy, deportation of the Roma from France: This is wrong but the United States finances the open and not so secrete systematic dispossession of the Palestinians. Sarkozy is a demagogue and a political opportunist. Thus, he started increasing deportation of the Roma people from France to deflect public and media attention from his corrupt relationship with the one of key stakeholders of the L’Oreal Cosmetics firm.

This is wrong on so many levels and is a harbinger for ALL Eastern Europeans.....The EU & NATO only bully those who can't protect themselves ie...Gypsies, Serbs etc....You don't see the French tossing out Muslims, do you? That is because the West is scared to death of Muslims so they round up Gypsies for petty theft but leave Albanian drug dealers & human traffickers alone....

In every country in the world the elites justify their existence by the famous balance. As in on Balance things are better with us running them than not. This balance of course begins to tilt wildly in an economic crisis. Hence the second line for the defense of privilege , scapegoating. The sudden discovery that the 'Jews' or 'Germans' or 'Russians' or 'Gypsies' are the source of the forces undermining the citizens security. Its an old story an even though in Europe it has led to the greatest crimes in the history of this world it is essentially banal. Marx's dictum that though every event in history occurs twice, the second time its as a farce appears relevant here. Each Roma is expelled with at least a hundred Euro's in their pockets. More than enough to pay for a coach trip back to France. The French leaders have taken lessons from the Middle Ages. They first brand the Devil publicly then drive him from country. After the ceremony the Devil is free to return at his leisure. Keeping the audience entertained with the circuses. Taking the bread from the poorest so others feel reassured at their good fortune. Pass the sick bucket please.

Who are we kidding? Ourselves? "The question for Europe now is: Is the inclination towards ethnic isolationism a temporary political trend, or a long-term problem?" The answer: It has always been the problem. The ethnic isolationalism, or better supremacism, has always been European mentality. The colonialism did not start with the on-set of the era of "discovery", and the subsequent industrialization. In Europe, it started much earlier. The empowerment of the states that grew out of the corpse of Roman Empire, resulted in them fighting each other, but also looking for expansion against the lower human beings. Chiefly to the East. Carl The Great fought over 40 wars against Sorbs, or todays Serbs, and established a new fronteer of his empire, including a string of new border cities, or limes. One was Hamburg. This was named "LIMES SORABICUS". Not much has changed since. All upstarts in Europe had the fascination with "inferiour" peoples, either in the neighborhood or within its borders. Napoleon, Hitler, to mention just last few. What has changed? Not much. Only the target. The "foreign" element is tolerated while everything is great, and Europeans feel superior and generous. Then they are all about human rights and preaching to others how to do it. But when the "inferior" prosper, the generosity is over. The immigrants have been usefull during the post-war economic expansion. Now, as it is no longer working --- it has got to be the fault of "foreigners". By being ugly, they are hoping of scaring people into leaving. Worse yet, the new generations of those despised foreigners consider themselves EQUAL citizens, and that is galling. Let us see who will stand up against it?

The funny thing is these champions of human rights and equality would go on to claim Serbia, the most multicultural country in Europe, whose population is 66% Serbian, as the one acting against humanity, and all that jazz. The same nations that historically pushed east, with examples being the Northern Crusades, and example given by Bianca. It truly has been going on since the fall of the Western Roman Empire. Open minded when times are good, ignorant when not. Ie, always ignorant, always realpolitik.

Why is it so neccisary for ALL European countries to take a hard-line stance in favor of immigration? Perhaps it is less ethno-centrism and more ethnic identity.

If you must be rude about someone at least get your facts right. The majority of the (craven) main stream press tried to disguise the anti-ground zero mosque protest by saying that there was approximately 2000 in attendance. The ACTUAL figure was between 30,000 and 40,000! Proof of this figure is shown in the ariel shots.

The remarks by Reding at the European Commission have a ring of truth in it, a truth that must never be forgotten in Europe, particularly 1000 Romanian and Bulgarian citizens deported en mass back to their respective countries is unprecedented and questionable. Given the fact that French law allows citizens of a member state a 90 day allowable stay, during which time they are freely allowed to seek employment and then given a normal working permit, provided they have found found work then to live and work in France. There are many instances when a person cannot find work and by French law must leave, but not required to return to their country of origin, but have the right to enter any other EU country. Therefore the mass deportation is questionable and the 1000 is far less than the known amount which borders on the 8000 mark. Unfortunately in West Europe their are questions concerning the move to the far right politically by the votes of the citizens of varying countries and respective political parties. In the Netherlands the fact that one and a half million voters, out of 6 million, voted for the Freedom Party of Geert Wilders is particularly worrying for the people of the Netherlands. The politics of the freedom party are in fact the same as that of the Nazi party of the 1930's, with one difference. The Nazi party placed Jews as a problem which should be solved. The Freedom Party places Muslims as a problem which should be solved. The Dutch people are worried especially by the push for a total right wing government, even though there is possibility of a majority stable center left coalition without the Freedom Party. In Germany there is also a new party started, just like the Freedom Party same policies, a break away from the CDU. The politics of some Western Europe political parties is worrying for its citizens, given also the world economic situation. We should be worried. Is the darkness of the past returning to destroy the light?

If PR101 is right and Palin becomes President of the US in 2012, then I am thankful that I am an old man and will soon die. The very thought of such an ignorant hillbilly having at her disposal the US military turns my blood to ice! Sarkozy is a political opportunist who seeks to exploit France's xenophobia, amusing but benign. Not so Palin. She has already shown the nation and the world how tenuous a grasp she has on world affairs, and her simple minded foreign policies would leave much of the part of the world that she feels is inferior to white America in flames.

Why don't the French just commission a study to find out which French ethnic minority is the most crime-ridden before they 'ethnically cleanse them? Which ethnic group is more dangerous in Europe? Albanians who deal in human trafficking & drugs or Gypsies who primarily deal in theft? I have to keep asking why do Western Europeans/Americans (Anglos in particular) have such a problem with understanding basic hypocrisy? When French remove Gypsies media pundits call it 'deportation'..When Israelis create ghettos for Palestinians, it is called 'containment'....When Serbs remove Muslims media pundits call it 'ethnic cleansing'..When Muslims & Facist Croats deport Serbs absolutely nothing is mentioned. Are immigration policies in the US 'ethnically cleansing' Hispanics? Is Obama a 'war criminal' for deporting Mexicans? Is Sarkozy a 'war criminal' for deporting Gypsies or a 'benign opportunist' ? The whole world is becoming more enraged at this Western penchant for double standards...particularly Western Liberals who don't mind globalization so long as they don't have to live with it.

Europeans started the two world wars yet their politicians have not publically/officially launched any objective scientific study to analyze contemporary human behaviour from an evolutionary viewpoint; specifically with respect to the interactions between ethnic groups and races. Males and female opinions often differ; again no scientific study has been carried out to examine sexual dimorphism and division of labour. Instead politicians try to individualise the issue resorting to puerile name calling (e.g. racist, terrorist, Islam, Jew, Hitler, bigots, fascist etc) or choosing to totally ignore the issue. Against this background, with a lack of understanding, the politicians continue to randomly mix races while suppressing resistance from their own people, saying it is wrong but giving no scientific reason. Indeed it was this sort of irresponsible behaviour that led to the holocaust. When their countries fail - due to social discontent=reduced productivity – the European politicians will blame foreign governments like China, the value of their currency, their human rights or whatever happens to be trendy at the time.

The question on europe moving to the far right can be ask as: more muslims/or non european races emigrate to western counties than white european emigrate the other way. Most immigrants come into the western countries to mix and take part in its culture and to a large degree add some in quiet. But lets face it the muslims enter the west and live among them selves, they don't adapt to the western culture so while they multiply and their race becomes more the european white becomes less. Also with islamic terrorism the west is being bombarded eother way. So the one answer to this while europe watches it is being slowly taken over. Think of this do you as young white europeans want in your old age to see that your grand children and theirs will have to face mecca five times a day ? The problem with europe it is weak while it is controlled by secularism, liberalism and political correctness these three ideals are no match for the controlling faith of islam. WAKE UP!!!

Roger Bascom It is only a guess but from your heavy investment in the pseudo scientific theories in evolutionary psychology and anthropomorphism- in order to extrapolate data from fish and frogs physiologies to apply to human behaviour suggests that you must be have been educated in the U.S and perhaps, Canada , or the UK. It is true that Europe has started two WWs in 20th century but how many wars has the U.S started in the last 150 years. How many wars has the U.S started since the end of WWII? Europe has old and ritual forms of xenophobia and these ills must be brought to critical light and purged and cleansed out no country in Europe has nearly the power to act on or the overt colonial and militaristic attitudes of the U.S Manifest Destiny since the defeat of Hitler’s Third Reich. I do not underestimate the dire implications of the current disturbing trends in Europe but my point is the U.S by far represents the greatest threat to our collative humanity at this historical moment.

Larry I am Muslim. I do believe Muslims of the Balkans made categorical error when they sought the help of Britain and the United States that gave these imperialists the pretext they needed to destroy once great country of Yugoslavia but with your blatant anti-Muslim stereotyping views indicates that the Serbs still need great deal to work through despite all the sad events which took place since the fall of Yugoslavia.

PR101 I stated an objective scientific enquiry should be launched to study human behaviour. If human evolutionary behaviour is “pseudo” - as you claim- then an impartial scientific enquiry would expose it as such. You appear to be against such an inquiry, yet you want others to blindly accept your viewpoint. Extensive knowledge of human biology comes from the study of numerous other species, including primates, as illustrated in many international journals. Human history and fossil records also provide valuable insights into human behaviour. You write “xenophobia” and “colonialism” as two evils that must be purged, yet you make no connection between the two. “Xenophobia” was a term used by colonialists to suppress native peoples so as to colonise their lands. It was “xenophobia” that led to the fall of the colonialist empires. What you call “xenophobia” is nothing more than stabilizing selection that leads to speciation. Today “Xenophobic” individuals are sometimes called “terrorists”. PR101 your thinking appears to be more in line with that of the US. The US randomly mixes races, creates internal discontent as a result, and then blames others for their decline because they behave in manner they don’t understand. I suggest you spend less time “guessing” and deal with the issue in a less emotional and more scientific manner. Best Regards.

Pr101...You should be more worried about what Islam is doing to free speech...I stand by what I say and would say more if I did't think my reply would be censored or edited...... Lucky for you the world's media organizations are so badly intimidated by Islamic threats on free speech...I doubt you are hearing half of what you think you are.

Russia has only two people per square mile.  You  have the space, why don't you take them in.?
