So you think this is the civilized 21st Century? No so. Europe is in The Dark Ages all over again.
Unlike the Christian world when it comes to their own in The Middle East, Jewish Organizations and Agencies have already begun plans to help European Jews who want to leave. They have options like Israel etc.
If The West believes, like Chamberlain and Obama, there will be peace in our time they are repeating the mistakes of history.
Radical Islam means to take over the world through terror and those Arabs and Muslims who oppose them will continue to remain silent out of fear.(See 1 below.)

Megyn Kelly does a 'whack a mole' on 'Flakey ' Sandra Fluke the Democrat's poster child on "The War on Women."
Were I a women, I would be embarrassed, even incensed, to have Sandra Flake speak for me along with another' hysteric' - Debbie Wasserman! A
And I have not even mentioned Madame Pelosi!
Women quit being suckered. Think for yourself, quite being characterized as pathetic and helpless beings. Remember that wonderful song: "I Am Woman."(See 2 below.)

Recent developments signal that the prospect of Europe sliding into a new
|
Dark Age is now a horrifying reality. It is as though all the elements negating the
|
open society have been blended into a witches’ brew to undermine Europe’s liberal
|
First in line to suffer are the Jews, attacked from all sides, isolated, friendless
|
and unable to adequately defend themselves. Their greatest threat is the rabidly
|
anti-Semitic Muslims supported by anti-Semites from the far Left. This unholy alliance
|
of religious and secular extremists employs radical anti-Israelism as a surrogate for
|
traditional anti-Semitism and is now a fixture at Hezbollah and anti-Israeli
|
demonstrations, where they wave placards and shamelessly accuse Israelis of
|
In contrast to the post-Vatican ll Catholics, most Protestant denominations (other than
|
the evangelicals) have revived their vicious efforts to demonize and delegitimize
|
the Jewish state. Spearheaded by the radical World Council of Churches,
|
many are vigorously pressing charges of deicide against the Jewish people
|
and resurrecting replacement theology asserting that by rejecting Christ, Jews
|
are no longer the Chosen People. They also collaborate with the Palestinians in
|
promoting Jesus as a Palestinian rather than a Jew. Some even deny the historical
|
link of Jews with the land of Israel, claiming that Jews are descendants of the
|
Eurasian Khazars who converted to Judaism in the eighth century C.E., and that
|
Palestinians are the truly indigenous people of the region.
|
Even non-governmental organizations promoting human rights have been hijacked
|
by the radicals to demonize and delegitimize Israel, focusing far more attention on
|
the construction of homes in exclusively Jewish suburbs of east Jerusalem than
|
on the carnage and murder of tens of thousands in Syria and other Muslim-ruled
|
Officially, most European governments condemn anti-Semitism but, because of
|
a combination of cowardice in facing Islamic violence and fear of losing Muslim
|
electoral support, they abstain from taking the tough action required to turn the tide.
|
Multiculturalism and diversity are admirable qualities for a democracy but can only
|
apply if all parties are committed to an open society.
|
European governments failed to integrate Muslim migrants, enabling radical
|
Islamists to create separatist educational and religious institutions. Their schools
|
and mosques are directed by jihadists and frequently financed by Saudi
|
Wahhabi fanatics who brainwash the second generation of migrants into becoming
|
more radical in Europe than their parents had been in their countries of origin.
|
It is from such incubators that children raised in Europe become engaged in hate
|
crimes, with some graduating into jihadi terrorists.
|
Now there is a frightening additional development with the massive infusion of
|
youngsters volunteering to fight in Syria with al-Qaida and who return to their
|
countries as hardened killers. It is estimated that thousands of European Muslims
|
are, or at one time were, engaged in the fighting in Syria. Most will return home as
|
seasoned killers imbued with jihadi hatred and seeking new targets, primarily Jews.
Mohamed Merah, who killed seven people, including three Jewish children and
|
their teacher, in Toulouse in 2012 and Mehdi Nemmouche, who murdered four
|
people at the Brussels Jewish Museum, both had jihadi experience.
|
Regrettably, the culture of political correctness and fear of accusations of
|
Islamophobia for criticizing any aspect of Islam or Muslim behavior prevents
|
appropriate response. Neither the EU nor individual European governments are
|
willing to take tough decisive action, which must include closing extremist Islamic
|
schools, ruthlessly excluding jihadi mullahs from the mosques and aggressively
|
prosecuting Muslim elements engaged in hate crimes, riots or law infringement.
|
An example of the pernicious extent of Islamic influence was the speech delivered by
|
EU Middle East policy chief Catherine Ashton on International Holocaust
|
Remembrance Day, when, to avoid offending Muslims, she omitted any mention
|
of the Jews – the primary victims of the Nazi genocide.
|
The recent mushrooming of popular support for radical right political parties
|
has intensified the problem.
|
Some Jews instinctively feel that the strengthening of the enemies of our enemies
|
is to our benefit. They are wrong. The far Right has indeed been galvanized by
|
those who feel threatened by Muslims. But many (not all) are equally anti-Semitic.
|
Yet, while most individual Jewish voters are likely to avoid extremist parties - both
|
Left and Right - Jewish community policy should be highly selective before officially
|
confronting Right-wing parties.
|
These range from the British U.K. Independence Party, which shuns
|
anti-Semitism, to France’s National Front, which ”softly” distances itself from its
|
anti-Semitic past, to Greece’s blatantly neo-Nazi Golden Dawn, the Hungarian
|
Jobbik party, and the National Democratic Party of Germany, whose anti-Jewish
|
Golden Dawn and Jobbik must be confronted. However, Jews should be officially
|
neutral about the U.K. Independence Party which has assiduously dissociated
|
itself from any anti-Semitism and refused to associate with parties tainted with
|
The National Front is more problematic. Officially, Marine Le Pen has dissociated
|
her party from its former anti-Semitic past and condemned Holocaust denial.
|
Although most of the party’s supporters are not hostile to Jews it still carries some
|
of its former anti-Semitic baggage and Le Pen’s father, a notorious and unrepentant
|
Holocaust denier, remains the honorary chairman and an EU parliamentarian.
|
So long as leadership elements genuinely strive to discard former anti-Semitic
|
associations and unless the party formally adopts anti-Jewish policies, it would be
|
counterproductive to officially designate the largest political party in France as
|
anti-Semitic. The challenge for Jewish leaders is to identify and expose the
|
anti-Semites who are obsessed with insane theories about a global American–Zionist
|
conspiracy, such as Aymeric Chauprade, one of Marine Le Pen’s foreign policy
|
advisers.
It should also be noted that although 70 percent of the French population fear Islamic
|
domination, that has not stemmed the tide of traditional anti-Semitism, as evidenced
|
by the popular support enjoyed by comedian Dieudonné M'bala M'bala with his
|
“quenelle,” the inverted Nazi salute.
|
The writing is clearly on the wall. Hostility is intensifying with renewed efforts to
|
ban circumcision and shechita(kosher slaughter) by hypocritical societies that
|
respect hunting as a sport.
|
In a sense, it is even worse for Jews today than during the 1930s when at least the
|
liberals and the Left combatted anti-Semitism. What is more depressing is that, as a
|
rule, the public is even more anti-Semitic than the government and perceives Israel
|
as the principal source of global evil – no different to the Middle Ages when the
|
Jews were regarded as the source of all natural disasters such as plagues and famine.
|
Despite the hullaballoo surrounding Islamophobia, it is Jews and not Muslims,
|
who require armed guards at their schools and houses of worship. And the hate
|
crimes, now including murder, perpetrated against Jews are infinitely more acute
|
than those suffered by Muslim minorities. Indeed it is preponderantly Muslims who
|
are engaged in violence against Jews.
|
The two major European Jewish communities react differently. The vast majority of
|
French Jews are under no illusion about their future and many are planning to l
|
eave. Their leaders speak out, courageously protest against anti-Semitism and defend
|
In contrast, much of Anglo Jewry remains in denial, deluding themselves that their
|
lives are unaffected by anti-Semitism despite what they read and see in th
|
media and what their children endure at the university campus. Their leaders, the
|
traditional “trembling Israelites,” believe primarily in “silent diplomacy” and seem
|
have only marginal influence in the corridors of power.
|
Most Jews cannot be expected to live like pariahs. To continue to live a Jewish
|
life in which anti-Semitism and anti-Israelism occupy such dominant roles is
|
soul-destroying, especially for youngsters.
|
There are today about 1.5 million Jews in Europe – just one-seventh of the prewar
|
numbers. There will always be Jews in Europe, but the communities will shrink to tiny
|
enclaves unless the tide is turned. Those in a financial position to do so will voluntarily
|
leave or at least encourage their children to leave. Many will come to Israel.
|
In this highly depressing European environment, we can begin to visualize how Jews
|
felt in the 1930s, unable to obtain entry visas from any country to escape the Nazis
|
as the Holocaust approached. It should make us appreciate more than ever how
|
blessed we are to have a Jewish state powerful enough to defend us from the
|
barbarians at our gates and able to provide a haven and assistance to Jews in need.

Megyn Kelly Destroys Sandra Fluke’s Claim on Hobby Lobby and Birth Control
In a Fox News appearance anchor Megyn Kelly blasted activist Sandra Fluke’s comments that the Supreme Court decision on Hobby Lobby was about restricting “women’s access to reproductive healthcare.”

3) Obama Retreating on 'Economic Inequality
President Barack Obama and many Democrats are backing away from the subject of economic inequality, instead focusing more on economic "opportunity" and lifting the fortunes of the middle class.
The shift is a marked shift the president's reelection year stance in 2012, when he called inequality a "fundamental threat the American Dream," reports The Washington Post. Instead, the new focus on issues like the gender pay gap and minimum wage reflects concerns of a more broad number of voters.According to White House officials, Obama is more interested in ways to address inequality issues rather than the problem itself, but others say Democratic polling reveals that complaints about inequality don't really register with the public and lead to complaints about class warfare. Further, there is a dispute between the party's liberal and more moderate wings about the issue. The left seeks to focus on income gaps and the influence of Wall Street, but moderates call such issues divisive.“It was clear in 2013 that income inequality was the top narrative for the White House, but they abruptly switched away from it,” Jim Kessler, senior vice president for policy at the centrist Democratic think tank Third Way told the Post. Kessler's organization has advised the White House and Democrats on how to avoid divisions caused by populism, and the issue "is on the back burner now — at least in terms of their rhetoric.”Obama this week invited top economists to a private lunch at the White House, tapping a broad array of ideological views as he seeks to assemble an economic agenda for the remaining 30 months of his presidency.The president has not been able to push his economic policies through the divided Congress, so he has been going beyond his White House economic team to search for ideas he can translate into executive actions or ways to nudge institutions and businesses to make changes that meet his economic goals. Thirteen economists have been to the White House since June 18, offering Obama their take on issues ranging from banking and finance to technology and education.Obama's shift away from income inequality will likely have implications for the midterm elections and even the 2016 presidential race, with House and Senate strategists also moving away from arguments about the wealth gap and more about giving Americans "a fair shot.""Both the White House and the Senate agreed that the decline of middle-class incomes was the most serious issue we face in this country, but the focus had to be on how to get middle-class incomes up, rather than drive other people’s incomes down,” said New York Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer. "There are some who believe it’s better to talk about the negative parts of wealth that people have accumulated, but our polling data show people care less about that and more about how we’re going to help them.”However, John Schmitt, an economist with the liberal Center for Economic and Policy Research, says the new focus risks being more about opportunities for people at the bottom of the income levels to go up, but leaving others where they are.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
