America is hated for every reason.
Fanatical Muslims say we are too decadent. Secular Europeans
think we are Bible-thumping rednecks. Anti-Semites hate us for
supporting Israel. Too Jewish, too Christian, too godless… Whatever
you’re against, America is the prime example of it.
So says conservative columnist Mark Steyn in his first and
eagerly awaited new book, America Alone.
With his disarming wit and startling clarity, Steyn shows how
the world is irrevocably changing and how America must get serious
and fight, or be consumed.
As Steyn puts it, “the future belongs to the fertile and the
confident.” And the Islamisists are both, while the West wedded to
a multiculturalism that undercuts its own confidence, a welfare
state that nudges it toward sloth and self-indulgence, and a
childlessness that consigns it to oblivion—is looking ever more
like the ruins of a civilization.
But Steyn also shows why the future, if the West has one,
belongs to America alone.
Steyn Argues that America should proclaim the obvious: we do
have a better government, religion, and culture than our enemies,
and we should spread America’s influence around the world—for our
own sake as well as theirs.
