Thilo Sarrazin Fired For Telling The Truth

Thilo Sarrazin, an intelligent and consequently a worried man, and until today a board member of the German central bank,  has just published a book about the future of Germany, and the effect on German society of large numbers of Muslims who are breeding much faster than the indigenous non-Muslims, or than trhe non-indigenous non-Muslims. Because he praised Jews, and dared to discuss such things as the average I.Q. of Jews (whom he said Germany should welcome as immigrants) such papers as the New York Times, in their surpassing dishonesty, presented him as an anti-semite, when he is clearly a philo-semite. They did this, and put it at the beginning of their story about him, in order to confuse readers and make sure they turned against him even before they were informed about what home truths he had to say about Turks and other Muslims in Germany.

Now he has been fired from his job. And politicians are cravenly  falling all over themselves as they run far, distancing themselves from him. But most people understand what he is saying, and they agree. His book will now sell very well, and he may, with his Center- Left political background, help to form and lead an intelligent, resistance to Islamization, one that will not be off-putting by hysteria and shrillness.

Those who think I may be unfair to the New York Times coverage should look at Judy Dempsey's article, with its dishonest title, and its first sentence that incorrectly describes Thilo Sarrazin's supposedly "disparaging remarks" about Jews (there were none) and Muslims, here.

He has merely stated the obvious.  That is: that the presence of a large, thriving Jewish community will, in any nation, cause a perceptible increase in the GDP and the national average IQ.  Whereas the presence of a large, ever-multiplying and ever more aggressive MUSLIM 'community', in any nation, will  have exactly the opposite effect...

Any sensible country will *welcome* Jewish immigrants; but will slam the gates shut, hard, against Muslim infiltrators/ subverters.

Jews, in Australia, have been here since the First Fleet and have been, in general, a blessing.  Despite the small size of their community relative to the rest of us, they have contributed intellectually and economically, in all kinds of ways.  Australia's first western style composer was Sir Isaac Nathan (who, incidentally, took a keen interest in Australian Aboriginal music, and wrote down quite a few of their songs).  It is no coincidence that one of our universities, Monash, is named after a great Jewish-Australian general who served with honour during World War One.

Muslims, in Australia, on the other hand...All one needs to know is that it was only after the arrival of large numbers of Muslims, in the 1980s, that our police force were eventually compelled to set up a Middle Eastern Organised Crime Squad (est. 2006)...and that nearly all of the crooks netted by that Squad are Muslims (oh, there are a few Lebanese islamochristians, and such, around the edges, but the Muslims seem to be front and centre).
