Put aside all your ideals and aspirations about how mandkind should behave.

There is but one simple question.Do we want this country to end up with France's chaos that will ultimately destroy it's culture and economy?

It is about our survival.Yea or nay.

John Stone is a highly accomplished, principled, respectable, and the wisest of Australians. No other Australian would have deserved the mantle of leadership on his shoulders than John Stone.

The vacuity and piffle of his "joker" critics, is shown by their inability to see even the witty joke of his last two sentences, least of all to understand his argument. Stone, is mentioning a series of events, which as a result of Britain's failure of multiculturalism, and France's equal failure of its "assimilation-integration" policies, and the high birthrates of its Muslim immigrants, that are now coming to haunt Europe with its destruction.

In the Netherlands, thirty per cent of children under the age of thirteen are Muslim. No wonder, that the great Arab scholar, Bernard Lewis, argues that Europe by the end of the century will be Muslim.

It's this awareness, about the dangers to Australia emanating from a large number of non-integrated Muslims, that Stone tries to instil with his article among Australians.

The savvy ones will his "takers", the obscurantists will be his "knockers".

You know that "The times, they are, a changin'"when journalists such as John Stone write such excellent articles pointing out the doom of multiculturalism. The most significant aspect of his article is that only ten years ago it would have been considered such heresy that it is unlikely that it would even have been published in any newspaper.

It is clear that more and more journalists are realising that the promises of multiculturalism as just as empty as the promises of socialism before it, and there appears to be a shift to the pragmatic right in the political aspect of today's journalists.

Journalists know that their reputations for political analysis hinge upon their getting their predictions about social policy and social consequences correct. So they can no longer continue finding excuses for a failed ideology nor can they continue to be enchanted by the utopian visions of dreamy idealists.

What has resulted is an increasing number of well written and hard hitting critiques of multiculturalism by respected and influential journalists. These articles reflect rising public unease with this failed concept and also influence those well meaning people who consider themselves humanitarian, but who are concerned about the direction in which Australian society appears to be heading.

Well done, a reality check and a pleasure to read some real Journalism instead of reaching for the bucket with that bed wetter stuff and the Guilt ride of the mindless.
The usual insults from the guilt ridden 5th column Cultural Marxist’s and P C brigade, (Enemy Occupation) as well as the Ethnic invasion’ers treading on the toes again. Branding everyone that does not capitulate to their capers as racist and bigoted; well, Pthyyyyyt to you. And enjoy the trip home.

I have two elderly male friends.

Bob 1 was a Rat of Tobruk in WWII ( I knew him from the age of 5 years). When I was an older adult (mid 20s) he shared lots of his war memories with me. I was privileged to hear his accounts of Middle Eastern autrocities and Middle Eastern "customs". He was very clear in his message to me. "Kay, if the Middle East (countries) migrates to Australia, this country is doomed". Bob 1 died.

My other friend, Bob2 was also a WWII vet. He said the same thing.

Everything that they both predicted has happened.

Can't you see the hypocrisy in your own post? Complaining about "the usual insults" and "branding everyone that does not capitulate" sits rather strangely in the middle of this paragraph that engages with none of the arguments of your opponents and comprises nothing but "insults" and "branding".

Stone's arguments could, and have, been equally (mis)used against German Jews, Australian Irish, and every other minority that finds itself the target of bigots. They have been the language and rationalisations of racists from time immemorial. To this extent, and this extent only, his suggestion of an Isabella Society is apt. She really was deserving of insults, as earlier posters have said. So let me let fly with a few. This vicious, racist, anti-intellectual, reactionary, vain, self-indulgent, venal, manipulative, hypocritical and ultimately self-defeating woman and the regime and inquisition she inspired is a fitting role model for the person John Stone has become.
