Some very interesting ideas started to swirl together in my mind while I was reading a reposted article over at Jihad Watch, ‘Islam’s Rise in Europe: Will it Be Our Fate?’, which eerily reminded me of the interview with Soviet defector, Yuri Alexandrovich Bezmenov, that I posted here on the Anvil just days ago. So, I prompted readers at Jihad Watch to look at the ‘bigger picture’ and consider the following:
If you’re looking for some grand scheme that works by way of the KGB alone, you won’t find it. If you look at the world of espionage, that’s not how things work.
Now, if you admit to yourself that our enemies are not stupid, are not without decades old fears and hatreds, then you will see quite clearly that the possibilities are more than just chance, that the incursion of Islam into Europe isn’t happening only with the help of Saudi oil money and the complacency of the Europeans. There is no logical reason to think that Russia won’t benefit from a Europe enveloped in civil strife and eventually civil war — because that’s the only possible outcome from the continuing growth of Islam in Western nations.
That’s right, eventually it all heads to war, either a global conflict outright or a series of civil wars as Westerners stop stuttering and and actually learn to shout with one voice. Will it be too little too late for Europeans? That’s the big question.
Stop looking for absolutes and start thinking like a spy. Subtleties are the name of the game, and a fellow like Putin plays well. I don’t trust him. Not at all.
And I later added:
I’m afraid I must politely stand by my earlier points. John Sobieski got it closest to correct in his interpretation of what I wrote when he stated this:
“Foehammer’s point is NOT that Putin or Russia is causing the Islamization of Europe. I believe that he is saying is that Putin’s Russia (as well as China) is happy to see the West taken down a peg or two.”
The rest of you that are defending Putin and Russia’s intentions are far too easily blinded by perception. Just as Arafat convinced the Western world he was no longer a terrorist, Putin has convinced too many of you that he is no longer old school KGB in his mindset. He’s exceptionally good at putting on a face when he wants to, but the facts don’t support what many of you have stated in rebuttal of my theory.
Here’s the one big fact that nobody can deny: Russia is helping build centrifuges for Iran. Russian engineers are actually on the ground in that country helping the process.
Now, if you think that this is the act of a nation/leader that has no inclination to be a thorn in the side of the United States by fueling Islamic terror, then pigs can fly. Iran has been the number one exporter of Islamic terror in the world since 1979. The Saudis export ideology, the Iranians export weapons and killers.
Russia is fully aware of what the Iranians are capable of doing. By putting themselves in the backseat they are intentionally forging an alliance so that the Iranians will not plague Russia with more terrorists.
Now, once the United States is crippled by nuclear terror, and Europe is in chaos thanks to Islam, who do you think will be looked to as a savior of sorts and put on an entirely new face? That’s right — RUSSIA. Russia will march in here and there, acting as a “liberator” of its own, land grabbing and resource collecting and I’ll bet that, just as in WW2, they will be welcomed with open arms.
I’ve defeated enough opponents in games of Diplomacy in my youth to know a thing or two about deception and strategic goals. Do not be so easily fooled. ‘Out of the box’ — that’s where you must look in order to safeguard the future, and sadly, this is something that Western governments have proven each day over the past twenty years that they are completely lacking in.
For the same reasons that too few people predicted 9-11, now too many people are giving Russia a free pass. I won’t make that mistake. My eyes are on them.
Well? Am I off my rocker? I hope I’m wrong. Really I do, but you know the old saying:
‘Tis better to err on the side of caution.
