I used to have a sub to the Economist. Back in the day it was an excellent publication for global news and politics. It covered all sides of the issues. I have no idea what it looks like now but completely unsurprising a left wing woman screwed it up. They have screwed up a lot of things in the last 10 years. They are a scourge.

I hope they are screwed bc they reap what they sow. My question is how much "AID" do we send and why is it still going?

Idiots should not be rewarded with the money of the US middle class. Nor should 3rd world countries, but that is another thread.

While the left continues to focus on a system of slavery that died more than 150 years ago, we've got their political allies enslaving underage girls for sex.

According to a new report at RAIR Foundation USA by Vlad Tepes, a 15-year-old Muslim boy living in Austria, the child of Iraqi refugees, took a 14-year-old non-Muslim girl as a sex slave, "forcing conversion, the hijab, and repeated rape while invoking Allah's name to threaten death." When she tried to "resist" him and leave? According to digital chat records published by a local paper, he swore, "By Allah, I will kill you" and "You *****, I will kill you." While the boy denies any abuse and rape, law enforcement found visible blood splatter on a wall, which the girl alleges got there during the last rape. Is anyone shocked? I'm certainly not.

And, this is just what I'm inferring since the RAIR report makes no mention of this detail, but this was all presumably happening with full knowledge of his parents, and in their presence. Where else does a 15-year-old kid live except at home?

Concerningly, O'Brien noted that the figures from the Department of Education did not appear to be impacted by the record breaking Boriswave following Brexit, with the MP suggesting that it is perhaps because the large number of recent arrivals may not have children of school age yet, meaning that his projections of White Britons becoming a minority in schools within a decade may be too optimistic.
The demographic transformation of the country is not merely a result of the annual influx of foreigners, however, but also as a result of differing birth rates between the native population and the migrant groups living in the country.
Indeed, according to the latest census, mothers born in Britain (of any ethnicity) had a total fertility rate (TFR) of 1.54 children, compared to a TFR of 2.03 children per non-UK-born women, meaning that migrant groups are at near replacement rate, while the local population is in demographic decline.
According to a report last year from Professor Matt Goodwin, such factors will contribute to White British people becoming a minority in the UK by 2063 and reduced to one fifth of the population by the end of the century.

And the AfD's response is of course not: "Let's finally secure Europe's external borders together."

But: "Let's smash Europe to pieces," just the way our friends in Moscow like it.

I stole this from the comments.

Dude is wish-casting. Europe has NEVER been unified across the board about anything. To many different cultures and problems. The only thing that ties them together is socialism which is the very force that demands mass immigration to prop up their systems. All of the "multiculturalism" propaganda used on their native citizens to justify the immigration policies has done nothing but poison the minds of the citizens to the point that reality and reason no longer exist.

At least this guy can still recognize the problem, but his European dream is just that. You can't have a collectivist system at the same time you have dwindling birth rates, so there will always be some country in your "union" that will look to mass immigration as a solution.

European tribalism will/can only be defeated by islamic tribalism, which has always used the former against itself. See: the fall of Constantinople.

The open question is whether a John Sosobieski or Martel the Hammer will ride to the rescue this time.

Every day, a new 52-week high for European natural gas.

The irony to me is that the Europeans continue to fund attacks on their primary natural gas station. This is not economically competitive.

Iceland rejected EU membership yesterday. Smart move.

Icelanders voted against restarting negotiations on joining the European Union in a nationwide referendum Saturday, rejecting arguments that their small island nation should pull closer to Brussels after President Trump's threats to annex Greenland.

Results published by national broadcaster RV on Sunday said 52.8% of voters didn't want their government to reopen talks with the EU, compared with 47.2% who favored talks. The government said it would respect the outcome.

The country of 400,000 people doesn't have a military of its own and depends on its membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and a defense pact with the U.S. for security. Opponents of EU negotiations said during the campaign that they didn't think the bloc could offer much additional protection.

This weekend's result is a blow for the EU, whose leaders are eager to show the 27-member bloc is still capable of absorbing new members after the U.K.'s 2020 exit. Iceland would likely have had an easier path to membership compared with other EU hopefuls because it is economically and politically stable.

With 400,000 people, Iceland would be inundated with foreign trash in less than a year. Even the most dense leftist understands the plan would be exposed too quickly.

Apparently England and Germany are dealing (unsuccessfully) with a rash of forced child marriages. Some of the victims are as young as 5. While the perpetrators of that form of slavery are not specified, we have a pretty good guess.

British government data has revealed that at least 100 children under the age of twelve have been identified over five years as likely to have been subjected to a forced marriage, which opponents have tied to mass migration.
A Freedom of Information request for Home Office figures made by the Press Association has disclosed that between 2021 and 2025, the Forced Marriage Unit received tips from family, friends, police, teachers, and social services of at least 100 girls 11-years-old or younger who were believed to be forced into getting married.
Of those identified, 27 of the girls were said to have been under the age of five when they were being set up for a forced marriage, The Telegraph reported.

Dame Jasvinder Sanghera, the founder of the Karma Nirvana charity, which seeks to raise awareness about honour-based abuse and forced marriage, said that perpetrators of forced child marriage often attempt to use their religion or accusations of racism against those seeking to protect girls from such a fate.
"They [perpetrators] will try and put you on the back foot. 'This is our culture. This is our religion. You're being racist' or whatever, to put you on the back foot, to make you look the other way…Cultural acceptance does not mean accepting the unacceptable," she said.
