Might post some barely-formulated thoughts on Douglas Murray's The Strange Death of Europe. Remarkable book in that it relates the story of islamic immigration without proposing a single solution - a depressing swan song of a book
-
I appreciate the lack of giving some sort of solution, as it stays rather politically neutral and forces the reader to decide for himself what to do with the situation.
I think the lack of solution is more to do with Murray's ambivalent relationship with european humanism - be good humanists; accept refugees and eventually cease to be european, or abandon the humanistic inheritance to save europe (and cease to be european in the process)

According to some videos I saw Murray in, I assume he's rather an old school liberal who doesn't dare to address this whole debacle one-sided. In several debates he argues strongly against Islam e.g. but left this aspect out of his book. I don't know why though.
