Girls in Europe have 1000:1 Greater Likelihood Of Being Raped by a Refugee than Killed by a Terrorist


Armstrong Economics Blog/Terrorism

RE-Posted May 16, 2018 by Martin Armstrong

It really is stunning how politicians in Europe are so disconnected with the people. The press bashes those in Britain who are against “refugee” immigration from the Middle East as RACISTS, despite the fact that they are of all races and Islam is not a race, it is a religion. It is amazing how they throw that word around to belittle and demonize anyone who disagrees with them. Despite all the hatred they hurl at those in Britain who voted for BRXIT, the polls show that the top two issues facing the voters in Britain, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Sweden, Finland, Poland, and Lithuania just so happen to be, let’s guess, Immigration & Terrorism.

When Europeans migrated to America, there were no social programs. They did not come to get handouts, free housing, and a monthly allowance. They came to work. To get a job, they had to learn the language and merge into society. Nobody showed up demanding that everyone in America change to conform to their culture. That is what has taken place, especially in Sweden. Friends from there have remarked how they cannot freely travel in their own country. Of course, there are the horror stories such as one of a refugee raping a 10-year-old boy in a swimming pool. The rapist claimed he was justified because it was a “sexual emergency” and the conviction was overturned because he may have consented?

In Norway, 25% of all rape cases have involved the refugees. The Afghan refugee who raped a 15-year-old fled when released on bail. There was the famous incident where 2,000 girls in Germany were raped or molested on New Year’s Eve. Then the German police were ordered to remove the word “rape” from all official records of the incident. This was to protect politicians who let these people in and not the girls in Germany.

In Sweden, they gang-raped a Swedish girl and broadcast it on Facebook. If you go through the countless number of reports involving rapes throughout Europe, is it any wonder why the polls are against immigration on equal footing with terrorism? In Europe, a girl has more than 1000:1 chance of being raped by a refugee than being killed by a terrorist.

About 70% of the “refugees” are single men under 30 — not families with women and children. Here is a photo of a boat of refugees off the coast of Sicily. They are all young men — not families. That’s the “sexual emergency” because they came with no women, do not speak the language, have no skills, and are use to just taking what they want.

That’s not a great formula for migration.

The Rise of Populism and the Backlash Against the Elites, with Nick Clegg and Jonathan Haidt


Published on Dec 5, 2016

Filmed at the Emmanuel Centre in London on 21st November 2016. What is going on in the Western democracies? From Britain’s vote for Brexit, to Donald Trump’s election victory in America and the growth of populist movements across Europe, voters are expressing their dissatisfaction with the status quo. Economic anxieties go some way to explain the phenomenon, but as with the Brexit decision, people are voting in ways that seem – at least to their critics – likely to harm their own material interests just to give the establishment a bloody nose. In this special Intelligence Squared event, renowned American social psychologist Jonathan Haidt and politician Nick Clegg will examine the complex web of social, moral and political concerns that are driving the unrest. How can we explain the new illiberalism that is growing on both left and right, as authoritarian trends spread across campuses throughout the Anglosphere (the no-platforming of speakers being a typical example)? How should we understand the new ‘culture war’ emerging in Britain, America and elsewhere between the ‘globalists’ and ‘nationalists’? As deputy prime minister during the Coalition government, Clegg witnessed the upheaval in British politics from the inside. Haidt, author of the acclaimed bestseller The Righteous Mind, has long been studying the moral and cultural drives that divide people into different political camps.
