Invasions

The historical and indeed still prevailing impression of an invasion is one in which one country's armed forces defeat those of another, driving out or greatly diminishing the number of existing inhabitants and replacing them with their own. And indeed that is probably the main determinant of ethnic profiles all over the globe today.

But there's also a form of invasion, more gradual and more insidious than its conventional equivalent, whose long term impact can be every bit as important. I'm talking about demographic invasion here. Those of you familiar with Gibbon will realise that whereas the Roman Empire was indeed invaded a number of times by military means, its ultimate destruction was arguably more a function of demographics. As Romans debased their currencies, stopped having children, hired foreigners to do their fighting and dirty work, increased taxes on the productive class (all this sound familiar?) foreigners increasingly came to move across porous borders and settle on Empire territory. Their populations increased geometrically while those of the native Romans remained stagnant, resulting ultimately in the Empire fading away. In more recent times - to give just two of many potential examples - Kosovo and Fiji have had their native populations 'peacefully' overwhelmed by Albanians and Indians respectively.

And, should current trends persist, a similar demographic doom now appears the destiny of the West, suffering as we do from all the pathologies I itemised above in relation to the Roman Empire. And we labour under a further affliction, being beset by a malevolent internal Fifth Column "rotting the soul of the nation".

It's a race against time. Will Whites wake up to the demographic war being waged against them (a war which has recently gone into overdrive) before the demographic balance reaches a tipping point?

Our futures and those of our children depend on the answer.
