Grand Teton


Pat Buchanan's alarming and essential book, entitled "The Death of the West", clearly describes the current crisis facing the European people. The combination of mass immigration, low European birth rates, and a dysfunctional culture threaten the very survival of European society.

If current trends continue, Europeans will be a minority group in the United States by the year 2050.  Europeans will be a minority group in Europe itself by about the year 2100. This is a historic looming disaster that requires an effective response.

Mass immigration is overwhelming the already overcrowded United States and Europe.  Entire states and regions are being occupied by immigrants from throughout the world.

Low European birth rates are causing a rapid decline in people of European descent in the United States and Europe.  This trend needs to be reversed.

A dysfunctional culture has been promoted by the media.  Irresponsibility and incivility have become prevalent in society.

Mr. Buchanan's analysis in his book is essentially correct, however, it is incomplete. He does not discuss the negative effects of World War I, World War II, Communism, Socialism, Big Government, and excessive taxation.  This depopulation crisis did not happen by accident. The evidence indicates that there is a deliberate plan in place that caused this crisis.  It is apparent that the ruling class is deliberately working to neutralize the European people.

The European people have been under attack and in rapid decline since World War I began in 1914.  Pat Buchanan's book is actually 90 years overdue.

The solution to this problem is higher birth rates for Europeans - more than two children per female, and low immigration rates.  These are not  that  difficult to achieve, but it will require determination by European people and support from government officials.

We highly recommend reading Pat.Buchanan's book.  It provides ample evidence that the European people are under attack and in decline.

Quotes from "The Death of the West":

*  "Uncontrolled immigration threatens to deconstruct the nation we grew up in and convert America into a conglomeration of peoples with almost nothing in common.  Balkanization beckons."  (page 3)

*  "The West is dying.  Its nations have ceased to reproduce, and their populations have stopped growing and begun to shrink."  (page 9)

*  "In 1960, people of European ancestry were one-fourth of the world's population; in 2000, they were one-sixth; in 2050, they will be one-tenth."
    (page 12)

*  "With a birth rate of 1.35 children per woman, Russia's 147 million people will fall to 114 million by 2050."  (page 17)

*  "Demographers have calculated that by the end of this century, the English people will be a minority in their homeland."  (page 19)

The Death of the West was published in 2002.  It is available at major bookstores and from online book dealers.
