"EU's migrant crisis is rooted in German Holocaust guilt."[1] --Douglas Murray, YouTube interview "There exists in German a wonderful word, both oddly haunting and untranslatable: Geschichtsmüde, which translates into something roughly akin to being “weary of history”. The unparalleled George Steiner once condensed Europe into five key concepts, the fifth being an ever-present feeling that European civilisation is awaiting its own imminent demise, crushed “under the paradoxical weight of its achievements and the unparalleled wealth and complication of its history”. Steiner never described this process as being voluntary."[2], 2017, The strange death of Europe, a review by Joseph Power |
