Invasion: Czech President Milos Zeman is taking flak for stating that the migration wave inundating Europe seems to be an orchestrated invasion, not a spontaneous movement of refugees. There's more to it than first appears.
Zeman is no right-winger affiliated with the political wave of nationalism rising in new European parties, from Croatia to Britain. He describes himself as a Scandinavian welfare-state proponent and openly favors bigger government and higher taxes.
He's wrong about that (as Scandinavians can tell him). But he does understand that open immigration is incompatible with the welfare state, an indisputable dictum first stated by one of the free market's giants, economist Milton Friedman.
"Sometimes I feel like Cassandra, who warns against pulling a Trojan horse into the city, and I am deeply convinced that what we face is an organized invasion and not a spontaneous movement of refugees," Zeman warned in a Dec. 26 address to his nation.
It's not just the fact that Islamic State terrorists have ties to increasingly tech-savvy organized crime networks focused on people-smuggling, or that the success of their operations yields billions with each boatload of refugees going up the Greek or Italian coasts.
It's that they aren't normal refugees, subject to human compassion — the old, the sick and the kids. That's the image, Zeman said, but the reality is that the million migrants who have filed into Europe this year are overwhelmingly young unmarried men, the exact people who form invading armies and can change continents.
Zeman notes that they came in search of Europe's vast welfare benefits, not arms and aid to fight terrorists in their homeland — as Czechs who fled Hitler once did.
The problem goes well beyond the unmarried men. It's in the elites who encourage them, says former Czech President Vaclav Klaus, whose free-market credentials are impeccable.
"The European multicultural elites are always dissatisfied that they are unable to sufficiently break up the European nations. They believe that if they mixed ... (in) migrants who have no roots in European countries, this will be a chance for an artificial unification of the continent," Klaus said, according to the Czech News Agency.
Klaus, along with Jiri Weigl, has written a new book on the invasion, called "Movement of Nations." Weigl warned that millions of people from a culturally alien environment may come to Europe within a couple of years.
"Europe will change in a way that we do not dare to predict now at all," Weigl warned.
That signals invasion, and it's cause for alarm.
The Czechs, along with the Hungarians and other self-respecting nations of Europe, need to treat it as such. They either have to pull up the drawbridge against the EU-sponsored hordes or perish as free nations.
