Neagu Djuvara Photo: Wikipedia |
Djuvara confessed, the years passed by so quickly, it now
seems that someone else lived his youth; he recounted when he was in World War
II, how he was wounded, how he lived abroad so many decades, twenty years in
Africa, and how it all flew by in a flash.
No matter where he was, he disclosed, he always loved his
country and his people. His Romanian Bible and a volume of Eminescu’s poems
kept his soul alive and his language unspoiled. After 45 years of absence from
his beloved country, Djuvara was proud of his mother tongue, unspoiled by
foreign inflections. So many leave Romania and come back with an English
accent, he lamented.
When asked about the world today and about his views,
Djuvara answered by describing how “All civilizations run through a similar
cycle, a beginning, a period of maximum flourish, and an end. After the death
of the Roman Empire, there were a lengthy Middle Ages and an Italian Renaissance
of beauty and intelligence.”
Comparing the United States to the Roman Empire, Djuvara sees
it as an “element of equilibrium,” a military and intellectual power. He imagines
the next 200-300 years as free of revolution; future generations should be
unafraid because this “supremacy, this American hegemony in the world is an
assurance of peace.” Perhaps Neagu Djuvara
feels safe, reassured, and wildly optimistic because there is a small American military
base now on Romanian soil.
Turcescu asked him if he really feels this way even though
there is a brewing conflict with Russia. Djuvara responded that Romanians are
afraid of Russia because they have inherited this fear. But Putin and Russia
are weak, he said, because “Russians, of all Europeans, have the weakest birth
rate; in 50 to 100 years, in the giant Mother Russia, only one tenth of the
population will be Russian, the rest will be Tatars, Kirgiz, and pagan tribes,
including the Chinese and the Japanese in the far east. “As a European nation, the Russians are in a
dramatic fall, and I am certain that Putin has no idea, he continues to believe
himself big and strong,” Djuvara explained.
On the question of the Muslim “refugees” in Europe, Djuvara
sees the flood of immigrants as an “invasion that cannot be stemmed because it
is composed of a population that has no historical, intellectual, or soul
connections to us, it is an invasion of barbarians.” Wistful that he is not
going to live that much longer, he is very pessimistic about everyone’s future in
the next fifty years. “The young people will see an absolute drastic change in
Europe, with waves of foreign nations coming.”
Turcescu suggested that perhaps the Americans could save
them. Djuvara agreed that they could be the European salvation again,
politically and militarily. But the sad reality is that the United States of
America could not save itself right now. The current American administration
has shrunk the military to such worrisome levels but the conflicts around the
world have escalated under the inept American foreign policy.
When asked about surviving the Maghreb invasion of Paris,
Djuvara explained that, on a recent return trip to France, “he was horrified
that the Parisian sidewalks no longer belonged to the French, but to the third
world.”
“Can this Muslim invasion be stopped,” asked Turcescu. “Nothing can be stopped in history without God’s
will. For us to stop it, it is impossible, they crawl under barbed wire and
still enter!” added the famous historian Djuvara.
On the sizzling debate that is splitting the country right
now, the building of the largest European mosque in Bucharest, Djuvara revealed
that he was against the project given the fact that the Romanian people fought
the Ottoman Empire for 500 years to prevent the building of even one mosque on
the territories of Wallachia and Moldova. “I think it is a tragedy that we are
now opening the gates for the largest European mosque to be built here and to
allow thousands of Muslims to come here, with their morals and crimes which some
of them commit. The Romanian government and future administrations must categorically
oppose the construction of this mega-mosque on Romanian soil! People like
Victor Ponta [Social Democrat Prime Minister] would not oppose such a mosque;
other men must come to power.”
“Why is the mosque dangerous,” insisted the young reporter. “The
Muslims claim that it will be a place of pilgrimage, of prayer, a place where
courses will be taught.”
Djuvara schooled Turcescu on the fact that “the main danger
is their invasion, the sheer numbers that would overwhelm a small country, just
like it happened with the Germanic invasion at the end of the Roman Empire.” …”The
Muslim world stretches over hundreds of thousands of kilometers and this is the
greatest danger for us, Europeans, and Indo-Europeans.”
The country is split between progressives and conservatives on
the issue of accepting “refugees” from the Muslim world. Many opine that they
find the development suspicious that suddenly, after years of conflict, Muslims
have decided in groups of 500-1,000 to request asylum in the rich west nations with
generous welfare systems, in the very western culture they despise and have
nothing in common with, instead of going south or east to oil-rich Middle
Eastern countries that share their culture.
Others wonder why these immigrants, who are incorrectly
labeled “refugees,” are so accepted and welcomed with open arms by EU communist
puppets and liberal hypocrites who label anyone who opposes the “refugees” as inhuman,
racist, and xenophobe.
Yet others describe how Romania and the Eastern bloc
countries like Slovakia, Poland, and Hungary, accused of xenophobia, struggle
to integrate millions of gypsies; the western European world lectures them how
to do it properly and humanely, while failing themselves miserably at
integrating gypsies and Muslims when they became a nuisance in the West.
Those who live and work in the west understand that a few
real refugees are not the problem but the Muslim theocratic culture and religion
which are not compatible with the European Christian culture. They give
examples of Pakistani Muslims who install themselves in violent enclaves and
rape girls in groups.
Many citizens suggested that lefties should integrate the
existing Muslims into the European culture first before attempting to bring in more
religionists of peace. Cultural diversity has been a dismal failure in Europe as
both Angela Merkel and Nikolas Sarkozy publicly admitted.
Some wished to know what lefty feminists would do and say
once they find themselves forced to wear hijab, become subjects to Sharia Law,
and are spat at in their own hometowns for wearing pants and a skirt. Such daring
attire is considered by Islamists an invitation to rape.
Is it fair to require 18 million citizens to support these “refugees”
who receive more in benefits than half of working Romanians must live on? Why
must citizens survive on $300-400 a month pensions or salaries while these undeserving
immigrants receive much more in benefits?
How quickly will the “refugee” invasion overtake the
indigenous European populations that have 1.1 babies per family, insufficient for
replacement value in any culture, while Muslims have more than eight babies per
family?
And the “refugee” invasion rages on in Eastern Europe with
standoffs on trains in Hungary http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/hungary-opens-budapests-main-railway-station-after-twoday-standoff--but-cancels-most-trains-10483964.html
