As Europe Crumbles
I recall posting warnings about Europe's uncontrolled and slipshod borders policies years ago when books by Douglas Murray, Christopher Caldwell, Mark Steyn, and Bruce Bawer were sounding the alarm.

Their views were either shared at top governmental levels or the decision makers actually wanted to produce chaos.
I confess that the latter explanation is not as crazy as it may seem. These are not stupid people.
But they are duplicitous.
