Let’s talk about the American white right. Are they really extremists? Are they truly arrogant? Are they as dark and hateful as American and global media portray them?
I am a Muslim, and I have no interest in being lenient toward the white populist right — or, as they are called in English, the “White Supremacy” or “white supremacists”. They have been labeled with every ugly description — racism, rigidity, backwardness, terrorism, and so on.
But a reasonable person must ask: why did these groups emerge in American society? And is it really a crime to take pride in one’s own race without rejecting others?
Here is my answer: they appeared because the racial mixture in America has become troubling. There is no longer harmony or cohesion among its components, especially with the rise of illegal immigration. The white race has started to fear for its existence, given the decline in birth rates and the high rate of abortions.
Instead of demonizing white Americans, I would have preferred to see the causes of their emergence addressed, and for them to be treated as American citizens equal in rights and duties to all other ethnicities. Let me remind everyone in America of a historical fact: “Those who discovered America and built its state, in the very beginning, were white Europeans fleeing their continent.” This historical factor must be taken into consideration.
I have visited America and noticed many things that make me concerned about the fate of a society that has gone to extremes in its freedoms – where anyone calling for limits on immigration is accused of racism, anyone who speaks against Jewish -Zionist influence is condemned, and anyone who disapproves of sexual deviance is treated as a criminal. Is this reasonable in a country like America?
An American citizen has every right to oppose what he sees as social decay. And if white Americans believe they should not give up their Christian-white civilization, that is their right – there is nothing wrong with it. They are demanding it peacefully, without raising arms against anyone. And when they defend the Confederate heroes of the American Civil War, that too is their right. It is part of their history – the history of a segment of the American people. How can some wish to erase its symbols?
To be continued…
