ONE of Britain’s most senior military strategists has warned that western civilisation faces a threat on a par with the barbarian invasions that destroyed the Roman empire.

In an apocalyptic vision of security dangers, Rear Admiral Chris Parry said future migrations would be comparable to the Goths and Vandals while north African “barbary” pirates could be attacking yachts and beaches in the Mediterranean within 10 years.

Europe, including Britain, could be undermined by large immigrant groups with little allegiance to their host countries — a “reverse colonisation” as Parry described it.  These groups would stay connected to their homelands by the internet and cheap flights.  The idea of assimilation was becoming redundant, he said.

The warnings by Parry of what could threaten Britain over the next 30 years were delivered to senior officers and industry experts at a conference last week.

From a Sunday Times article headed, “Beware: the new goths are coming”.

I recall John Keegan writing many years ago that the British Army was one of the very few institutions remaining in this country imbued with a high moral ethos.  That analysis is borne out here, I think, for the rest of the armed forces by Rear Admiral Parry.

His warnings were contained in a speech delivered last week to the Royal United Services Institute in, of course, always vibrant and equal Central London.  He “heads the development, concepts and doctrine centre, set up in 1998 and based at Shrivenham, Wiltshire.  It has more than 50 staff and is being expanded to include extra analysts.”  It is tasked with blue skies thinking ... skies in which, self-evidently, there aren’t many politically correct boundaries.

He seems to have arrived at his model of social cataclysm in the West because he was asked to determine how global warming will impact on the future defence of the realm.  That’s a nice, wide doorway to all the immigration issues with which MR readers are familiar, and to his credit Parry walked through.

Of course there are shortcomings with the scope of his analysis.  He has to stop at the boundary of his remit, and merely commend the same politicians who have done all they can to pursue cultural and racial Marxism to somehow attend to the cataclysmic consequences.  A blue skies political thinker might have concluded that the feeble, selfish men who populate the green benches of the Commons (or, indeed, the rather comfortable-looking blue chairs of the House of Representatives) are thorough-going creatures of the liberal zeitgeist, and will never be capable of the moral stand that the times require.

The logical extention of Parry’s thinking takes us into what governance is likely as the gap between the official fantasies of advanced liberalism and reality yawns.  Leviathan is one dark possibility, and a military mind should really be sufficiently interested in that to explore his employer’s role therein.  But the recovery of native ethnocentrism, and its political expression, also constitute a possibility, if one that not even Rear Admiral Parry can mention in polite society yet.

Thanks to R Berkeley for this link to a Pravda article by Stojgniev O’Donnell.  Not unnaturally, the author’s standpoint is in some ways Russia-centric.  But the opening paragraph certainly caught my attention.  Here are a few highlights:-

Russian Christians now admit that the concept of human rights and liberties as advocated by America and the West has no application in contemporary Russia . That country is drowning in vices directly linked to the West’s concept of inherent rights and liberties: abortion; homosexuality; dissolution of traditional marriage; pornography; slavery, prostitution, and exploitation of the oppressed, etc. The Russian Orthodox now understand that such American “values” are, in fact, vices which harm every human society as a collective. Such American “rights” have not brought happiness. They represent the deviance of the cult of the individual. From my Third World perspective, I am amazed that some Americans continue to argue that America’s virtue is that it protects such “rights” (=vices).

... We are now witnessing the demise of America. For decades, America successfully marketed its “values” throughout the world (accompanied often by hefty cash subsidies for corrupt, subservient regimes). The aims of the American ideology were no less ambitious than those of Soviet communism, and the Americans were victorious over the Soviets, for a couple of years anyway.

... America is dying. I assure those Americans who still feel secure about a regular pay check, their job perks, vacations, company cars and cell phones, annual bonuses, benefits, government entitlements, U.S. dollar-based investments and accounts, etc etc., that their lifestyle is crumbling. There is no longer any right or logic in America’s prosperity.

... The American Middle Class has outlived its period of historical relevance and soon will be replaced, by Hispanics, India’s Indians, and Chinese. Those groups have no qualms about bearing and rearing children.

It is the twenty-first century. America is rat-infested history. America will fall, overrun by fatwah-inspired Muslims; wild, dispossessed, self-identified Apache or Aztec guerillas; looting, reparations-deluded African-Americans; indignant Eskimos; flaming cross-dressers and advocates of every sort of politically correct nonsense. History doesn’t last forever, and anyway, America had a couple of good centuries before it turned to cr*p.

To those who have sent MR this latest piece from William S. Lind at Antiwar.com, thank you.  It is not overly long and my comment at this stage is superfluous.  So I reproduce it here as it stands ...

The recent votes in France and the Netherlands against the proposed constitution of the European Union are not merely political phenomena. They represent significant actions in the development of Fourth Generation war. Why? Because the root cause of Fourth Generation war is a crisis of legitimacy of the state, and the two referenda saw the French and Dutch people rebel against their elites’ efforts to empty the state of its content.

Understanding what happened in these two votes requires a counterintuitive mindset. Normally, we would think of elites as representing the state and the common people rebelling against the state. That is not what happened here. On the contrary, the elites represent the destruction of the state and the French and Dutch people rebelled in defense of their historic, national states. In effect, the aristocracy was crying “Down with the king!” while the peasants shouted “Vive le roi!” (which happened quite frequently during both the French and Russian Revolutions).
