Niall Ferguson: By 2021 There Could Be A Restored Middle Eastern Caliphate

Niall Ferguson spoke with The Telegraph about what he believes the world may look like 10-years from now, in 2021.
Key points:
China will be the largest economy in the world by 2021
No guarantees the euro will still exist
The U.S. could europeanize itself, or it could revitalize itself
Tiny possibility we get western-style democracies in the Middle East
More alarming to think about a "restored caliphate"
Germany's love of European integration under threat

What do you mean "Could be"??

The Caliphate is here and we are all doomed to become slaves to the Muslims

Glenn Beck told me so....All you got to do is "Connect the Dots"

Intereesting subject and interesting vid!

Too bad Ferguson didn't go further in discussion of what such a caliphate would entail, and cost in human lives.

First, it is senseless to overlook the wishes of Islamists to establish same...
everyone should study Sayyid Qutb...

and second, consider whether the caliphate would be along the lines of the Islamist-Islamic Republic, the entire ummah, as Ferguson discusses, or more nationalist, as in Saddams Baathi Republic.

Both require wholesale slaughter of all jahili, barbarians, which includes infidels and most Muslims, as well.

This from Berman, "Terror and Liberalism,"...

"1. Communism was the first of the new mass movements in Europe, and the first to flourish in the Middle East as well. Europe’s Fascist and fascist-style movements began in the years after World War One. The major difference was that Communists and Marxists, aimed to show how similar they were in every country…the Fascists’ aims were to show how local and parochial, how ‘nationalist’ and ancient its interests were.

a. Baath Socialism had its myth of man and history, the Arab nation was it’s people of God, corrupted and polluted by forces within and forces without.

b. From Michel Aflaq, the founder and greatest of the Baathi theoreticians: The philosophies and teachings that come from the West invade the Arab mind and steal his loyalty.”

c. And the people of evil who corrupted the nation of God, were, of course, the Jews. Pan-Arabists of one kind or another were responsible for the anti-Semitic outbreaks of the ‘40’s and ‘60’s.

d. The Arabs, in this projection, would return to their “pure, original nature” by revering the revolutionary Leader who embodied the “Arab Spirit,” the spirit one embodied in the Prophet Muhammad himself. This meant unlimited mass obedience, and this implied following the political organization, or the state. This view was not only totalitarian, but anther element that traces back to the Enlightenment- nihilism.

2. Although it followed the European versions by decades, it remained true to the form, the pattern…Instead of wanting with Mussolini, to resurrect the Roman Empire of ancient Italy; or, with Hitler, the Roman Empire of Nazi mythology; or with Franco to resurrect the medieval Spanish crusade for Christ the King- their particular yearning was for the Caliphate from the days of Muhammad. That was the Baathi “Renaissance.” This was fully in line with the twentieth century tradition.

3. Muslim’s other grand radical movement, Islamists might seem, at first, to be an exception, free of the European virus… as the Egyptian and Pakistani versions began as organs of peaceful political reform, i.e., the strictly religious Muslim Brotherhood, …but scratch the surface, and there is the sympathy for Nazism. The Young Egypt Society, the ‘Greenshirts,’ were openly Nazi, and Hassan al-Banna was not far behind.
Young Egypt Marches Again by John Galt - The Tree Of Liberty The Brotherhood even had it’s units designated ‘kata’ib’ or phalanges, a la Franco.
