In late October 2003, I attended
an immigration-overpopulation conference in Washington, D.C.,
filled to capacity by many of America's finest minds and
leaders. Writers, speakers, CEOs and representatives from
Congress such as Tom Tancredo as well as former governors
graced the podium. Bonnie Eggle - mother of the national parks
ranger Chris Eggle slain by Mexican drug runners last year on
our unguarded southern border -- gave a compelling speech that
left not one dry eye in the place. Peter Gadiel, father of
Jamie Gadiel, spoke powerfully on how the World Trade Center
took his son and how nothing has been done since to stop the
flow of illegal immigration into the United States. Even with
the façade of Tom Ridge's Homeland Security, 800,000 illegal
aliens continue walking, crawling or tunneling across the
Mexican border annually. Their accelerating numbers are
undermining America's ability to function.
During the
conference, speaker after speaker astounded the audience with
facts on how fast the present administration and Congress
continue dismantling the American Dream for average citizens.
Mr. Rob Sanchez of Arizona showed how H1-B and L-1 visas have
ripped one million high tech jobs out of American worker's
hands. Another speaker told a packed audience how "offshoring"
and "outsourcing," fully supported by the president and
Congress have cost over three million American jobs in the
past six years. His prediction was even more depressing: "In
excess of three million more jobs will be 'outsourced' within
four years. Those American jobs are headed to Mexico, India,
China, Pakistan and Brazil."
Later, a brilliant college
professor named Victor Davis Hansen talked about his latest
book, Mexifornia, explaining how immigration, both
legal and illegal, was destroying the entire State of
California. He said it would march across the country until it
destroyed all vestiges of the American Dream.
Moments
later, former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm stood up and
gave a stunning speech on how to destroy America. This writer
sat in the audience spellbound by the eight methods for
destruction of the United States.
He said, "If you
believe that America is too smug, too self-satisfied, too
rich, then let's destroy America. It is not that hard to do.
No nation in history has survived the ravages of time. Arnold
Toynbee observed that all great civilizations rise and fall,
and that, 'An autopsy of history would show that all great
nations commit suicide.'
"Here is how they do it," Lamm
said. "Turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and
bicultural country. History shows that no nation can survive
the tension, conflict and antagonism of two or more competing
languages and cultures. It is a blessing for an individual to
be bilingual; however; it is a curse for a society to be
bilingual. The historical scholar Seymour Lipset put it this
way: 'The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that
do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension and
tragedy. Canada, Belgium, Malaysia, Lebanon - all face crises
of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy,
if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria
suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with
Basques, Bretons and Corsicans.'"
Lamm went on, "Invent
'multiculturalism' and encourage immigrants to maintain their
own culture. I would make it an article of belief that all
cultures are equal. That there are no cultural differences. I
would make it an article of faith that the Black and Hispanic
dropout rates are due to prejudice and discrimination by the
majority. Every other explanation is out of
bounds."
"We could make the United States an 'Hispanic
Quebec' without much effort. The key is to celebrate diversity
rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz said in the Atlantic
Monthly recently: 'The apparent success of our own
multi-ethnic and multi-cultural experiment might have been
achieved not by tolerance but by hegemony. Without the
dominance that once dictated ethnocentrically and what it
meant to be an America, we are left with only tolerance and
pluralism to hold us together.'"
Lamm said, "I would
encourage all immigrants to keep their own language and
culture. I would replace the melting pot metaphor with the
salad bowl metaphor. It is important to ensure that we have
various cultural sub-groups living in America reinforcing
their differences rather than as Americans, emphasizing their
similarities.
"Fourth, I would make our fastest growing
demographic group the least educated. I would add a second
underclass, unassimilated, undereducated and antagonistic to
our population. I would have this second underclass have a 50
percent dropout rate from high school."
"My fifth point
for destroying America would be to get big foundations and
business to give these efforts lots of money. I would invest
in ethnic identity, and I would establish the cult of
'Victimology'. I would get all minorities to think their lack
of success was the fault of the majority. I would start a
grievance industry blaming all minority failure on the
majority population."
"My sixth plan for America's
downfall would include dual citizenship and promote divided
loyalties. I would celebrate diversity over unity. I would
stress differences rather than similarities. Diverse people
worldwide are mostly engaged in hating each other - that is,
when they are not killing each other. A diverse, peaceful or
stable society is against most historical precedent. People
undervalue the unity it takes to keep a nation together. Look
at the ancient Greeks: The Greeks believed that they belonged
to the same race; they possessed a common language and
literature; and they worshipped the same gods. All Greece took
part in the Olympic games. A common enemy Persia threatened
their liberty. Yet, all these bonds were not strong enough to
overcome two factors…local patriotism and geographical
conditions that nurtured political divisions. Greece fell. In
that historical reality, if we put the emphasis on the
'pluribus' instead of the 'unum,' we can balkanize America as
surely as Kosovo."
"Next to last, I would place all
subjects off limits - make it taboo to talk about anything
against the cult of 'diversity'. I would find a word similar
to 'heretic' in the 16th Century - that stopped discussion and
paralyzed thinking. Words like 'racist' or 'xenophobe' halt
discussion and debate."
"Having made America a
bilingual -- bicultural country, having established
multiculturalism, having the large foundations fund the
doctrine of 'Victimology,' I would next make it impossible to
enforce our immigration laws. I would develop a mantra: 'That
because immigration has been good for America, it must ALWAYS
be good.' I would make every individual immigrant sympatric
and ignore the cumulative impact of millions of
them."
In the last minute of his speech, Governor Lamm
wiped his brow. The profound silence allowed me to hear my
heart beating. Finally, he said, "Lastly, I would censor
Victor Hanson Davis's book Mexifornia. His book is
dangerous. It exposes the plan to destroy America. If you feel
America deserves to be destroyed, don't read that
book."
There was no applause. A chilling fear quietly
rose like an ominous cloud above every attendee at the
conference. Every American in that room knew that everything
Lamm enumerated was proceeding methodically, quietly, darkly,
yet pervasively across the United States today. Every
discussion is being suppressed. Over 100 languages are ripping
the foundation of our educational system and national
cohesiveness. Barbaric cultures that practice female genital
mutilation are growing as we celebrate "diversity." American
jobs are vanishing into the Third World as greedy corporations
create a Third World in America - take note of California and
other states - to date, 10 million illegal aliens and growing,
fast.
It reminded me of George Orwell's book,
1984. In that story, three slogans are engraved in the
Ministry of Truth building: "War is peace," "Freedom is
slavery," and "Ignorance is strength." I sat there as one of
the most patriotic Americans I know, Governor Lamm, walked
back to his seat. It dawned on everyone at the conference that
our nation and the future of this great democracy, is deeply
in trouble and worsening fast. If we don't get this
immigration monster stopped within three years, it will rage
like a California wildfire and destroy everything in its path,
especially the American Dream.
