Hungarian Christmas Message: ‘We’ll Protect Christian Culture, Not Retreat Behind Concrete Blocks and Watch Our Women Harassed on New Year’s’
Hungarian Christmas Message: ‘We’ll Protect Christian Culture, Not Retreat Behind Concrete Blocks and Watch Our Women Harassed on New Year’s’ by Jack Montgomery 25 Dec 2017
Viktor Orbán has used his annual Christmas message to call on Europeans to protect their Christian culture, and vowed Hungary will not “retreat behind concrete blocks” at Christmas and watched its women and daughters “harassed in the New Year’s Eve crowd” like its multicultural neighbours.
“Christianity is culture and civilization. We live in it. It is not about how many people go to church or how many pray honestly. Culture is the reality of everyday life… Christian culture defines our everyday morals,” wrote the Fidesz leader, in an article published in Magyar Idők.
Orbán also took aim at the enemies of his ‘country first’ policies, who say he cannot claim to be Christian if he will not support allowing “millions from other continents to settle into Europe” in accordance with the commandment to “love thy neighbour as thyself”.
“They forget the second part of the commandment,” observed Orbán: “To love ourselves.”
The conservative heavyweight explained: “Loving ourselves also means taking and protecting all that we are and who we are. To love ourselves means that we love our country, our nation, our family, Hungarian culture and European civilization.”
“Fundamentals of European life are now under attack,” the Hungarian leader continued, alluding to the difficulties faced by countries such as Britain, France, and Germany, which have all pursued policies of mass migration and state-sponsored multiculturalism.
“Regardless of whether we are going to church or not, and if so, to which we are going, we do not want to celebrate the sacrament just behind the curtains so as not to violate the sensitivity of others,” he declared.
“We don’t want our Christmas markets to be renamed, and we definitely don’t want to retreat behind concrete blocks. We don’t want our Christmas masses to be surrounded by fear and distress. We don’t want our women, our daughters to be harassed in the New Year’s Eve crowd.”
Prime Minister Orbán added a warning against the forces which seek to deliberately weaken Christianity in Europe, which he described as a kind of cultural “immune system” — unnoticed while it is strong, but leaving the entire body politic vulnerable when it is weak.
“They want us to stop being who we are. They want us to become those who we don’t want to be. They want us to mix with people from another world, and to change in order to make diversity trouble-free,” he said.
“The free nations of Europe, the national governments elected by the free citizens, have a new task: to protect our Christian culture.
“Not for others, but for ourselves; for our families, for our nation, for our countries, and for the ‘homeland of our homeland’ — for the defence of Europe.”
Such POWERFUL words!!! They should be proclaimed to the Western world. I'm glad someone is speaking out so clearly about the Muslim threat to Christianity and Western values. This multi-cultural nightmare is bringing with it a collapse of great tragedy. TM

Swedish Finance Minister: Stockholm made a mistake accepting so many refugees Friday, December 22, 2017
The Swedish finance minister, Magdalena Andersson, in a Friday interview for the newspaper Dagens Nyheter said that Sweden made a mistake by accepting thousands of asylum seekers in 2015.
It is the first such statement of the politician from the ruling Sweden’s Socialist Working Party, whose coalition government together with the Green Party, welcomed over 163 thousand asylum seekers in 2015.
"The integration [of immigrants] does not go as it should. We had a problem with it before the autumn of 2015 (when Sweden accepted a wave of migrants). For me it is obvious that we cannot accept more asylum seekers than we can integrate. It will not be good either for people who come here or for the whole society," said the Swedish Finance minister Magdalena Andersson.
According to the politician, people who come to Sweden "face a very tense situation" while greater housing and education opportunities exist in other European countries.
"I think these people [immigrants] have a better chance if they seek asylum in another country," Andersson admitted.
The Minister of Finance told the newspaper Dagens Nyheter that her own Social Democratic Workers Party was to blame for the tense situation in Sweden in connection with the admission of immigrants on such a massive scale.
"We have a reason for self-criticism, it should have been clear beforehand that we were not able to accept more people than our country can cope with" - said Magdalena Andersson.
In August 2015, the Swedish Prime Minister, Stefan Löfven said at a rally in Stockholm that Europe “should not build walls”. In November of the same year, as a result of the wave of migration, the Swedish government decided to restore border control and tighten immigration regulations.
When asked what should be done to allow integration of people who obtained the right of residence in Sweden, Magdalena Andersson replied that their entry into the labor market must be faster.
"The children must grow up and see that their parents work. More families must have adequate housing conditions and children should learn what they need at school. There are no other requirements for people who came here than for us who were born in Sweden "- said the Minister of Finance.
The level of unemployment in Sweden among people born in the country is just over 4 percent. Unemployment among people living in Sweden and born in another country reaches 15 percent.
