World history and it always repeats itself.............

1. No borders
2. No language
3. No culture

EQUALS= SUICIDE

And we have arrived there folks.

Bankers, billionaires, politicians and psychics are developing their personal plan B in various foreign countries. They know America's days are numbered and we have only ourselves to blame.

Has any one pointed out that 15% of the Russian Federations population is Muslim, that's 20 million Muslim in Russia, and whilst the Russian population is declining, the Muslim population is growing. It's predicted that Russia's population will fall from 143 million to 100 million by the end of the century, with the Russian Muslim population set to increase dramatically.

Paul Goble, an expert on Russian minorities, concludes that “Russia is going through a religious transformation that will be of even greater consequence for the international community than the collapse of the Soviet Union.” A Russian commentator he quotes envisions a mosque on Red Square in Moscow. The facile assumption that Moscow is and will remain Western-oriented “is no longer valid,” he argues. In particular, he predicts that the Muslim demographic surge “will have a profound impact on Russian foreign policy.”

Default Who cares?

Putin and his view of Russia has not the slightest similarity to this country and its shameful history of slavery and treatment of native Americans, black people, Mexicans, and so forth. Russia is not cursed by the pathetic segment of this country that is Dixie and the right-wing.

This country has the greatest freedoms in the world, yet it is quite pathetic that Dixie and the right-wing choose voluntarily to the most ignorant in the world. Very different than Russia.

Frankly, who the hell cares what Putin thinks?

America is a melting pot, not a multicultural society. In general we have all had to co exist together

Multiculturalism is a western european creation, kind of their take on "seperate, but equal". Euros are very self aware of their societies being extremely homogenous. Multiculturalism was suppose to help them "pump up" the number of people who dont look like them living in their country, without actaully having to be bothered by them.

keyword there = "supposed to be". From what their leaders are saying, it's not worked out quite as planned

I ask a simple question. If you break down what he says, is he wrong? If the answer is yes please explain with statistics to back up your assertions.

It appears that most people on here including the OP did not actually READ the link.

We can categorize people in any way to fit our agenda. Besides, the reality is, most Europeans do not see themselves as being the same. And generally all cultures have for the most part the same values.

Like I said before, white americans are the greatest beneficiaries of multi-culturalism.

How are white Americans the beneficiary of multi-culturalism?
