The term 'diversity' is being used as a euphemism for chaos and social disenfranchisement in mass people movements which are politically packaged as both positive and inevitable, much as slavery was in the 18th and 19th century. UN Deputy Secretary General Jan Eliasson has said that 'the refugee crisis in Europe has created fear and hatred among local residents, which should be combated by bringing to light the positive contributions of migrants to creating a diverse society'.[1]

The Numbers
"The number of international migrants reached 244 million in 2015, an increase of 41 per cent compared with 2000, the United Nations says in a report. The report published on Tuesday, the latest biennial revision of migration trends, found that the number of people who had moved to another country - voluntarily for economic reasons or because of conflicts - had risen by 71 million since 2000."[1]
The influx into Germany and which is overflowing to the rest of Europe amounts to an invasion because permission was not sought from the ordinary people who bear the impact on jobs, housing, social and natural environment of these colossal numbers of people. At the same time the immigration flows are the result of wars that European leaders and global commerce are inflicting on the sending countries.
Imposed mass immigration compromises self-determination and democracy
Talk of 'diversity' as if different ethnicity/religion is the only feature of the problem of mass immigration to Europe is to ignore the sheer numbers of people seeking work and housing. Such huge changes in demand form the greater part of economic and social impact and the resultant hardship and inconvenience is an affront to citizens who were not consulted.
Talk of 'diversity' in the face of this huge and largely irrevocable change to numbers and composition of society has the effect of further reducing the scope of citizen input into self-government (which is a kind of cooperative population management). Self-government involves cooperative apportioning of work and housing as well as supporting infrastructure within a society defined by its membership (citizens). It is usually managed through long established civil legal and institutional processes only available to citizens or visaed immigrants.
How a population evolves is a traditional and anthropological prerogative of its members, not commercial 'stakeholders' or global political players. A sudden redefinition of membership without consultation is a fundamental problem.
War and mass migration: Criminal role of the press and governments
When external forces produce massive population changes, this is usually referred to as war. Whilst we do know that US-NATO members have a long history of and a current responsibility for the wars in the Middle East that are producing much of these mass migrations, it is difficult to pinpoint what organisations and people are really behind the manipulation of numbers in Europe through open-door policy. This is because they hide behind rhetoricians like the UN Deputy Secretary, national leaders such as Merkel, and a pro 'diversity' corporatised and syndicated global media that obviously has interests in labour market, weapons manufacture, international trade and the transmission of power through chaos. In fact, apart perhaps from Putin's Russia, most of us do not know who is in charge of nations anymore; policies seem to be influenced from many transient global hats.
The mainstream press have had a criminal role along with EU and European governments in suppressing discussion of the numbers involved and manufacturing an apparent consent to them against real citizen feelings. In tandem these actors have consistently talked up US-NATO roles in wars that have caused these population disruptions in the Middle East. These arrogant attitudes and manipulations of perception have caused chaos, suffering and death.
Diversity doesn't nail it
'Diversity' is a non-sequiteur in the face of western warmongering overseas and manipulation of European population numbers and institutions to reduce wages, inflate housing prices, and generally place pressure on established social gains and citizens rights.
Unfortunately many commercial ventures use the UN as a respectable umbrella for advancing their own selfish interests. Any organisation may register as a UN member on a variety of bases and the UN attracts government, property and banking lawyers, ideological entities with strong links to business and government, such as the Australian Multicultural Foundation, and a variety of businesses in various guises looking for opportunities. (See http://www.unaavictoria.org.au/our-partners/. Associated projects are often described as 'development' initiatives but they are about taking over land and resources, changing local laws, exploiting and disorganising workforces in the sending and receiving countries.
The people behind some of these trends are so craven that they do not seem to think twice about provoking and stoking protracted wars and genocides, except to justify them with flimsy excuses.
Left-right conflicts growing
Another aspect of these problems is a growing division between 'left' and 'right' in population politics as reported, endorsed and incited by the mass media. In a strange way it is reminiscent of the setting for the rise of fascism in Germany. In those days the right (the Nazis and the Italian fascists) were encouraged by big business and the mass media as a means of combating the 'left' or the rise of communism. The communists were for the uniting of workers against exploitation and war but the fascists were for exploitation and pro-war. Today we have a situation where groups identified by the mainstream press as 'left' and 'anti-fascist' are coming into conflict with groups identified as 'right-wing'. Counter-intuitively the left-wing, as presented by the mainstream press, seems to think it is okay to have disorganised mass immigration and has almost nothing to say against the wars producing these population movements. The right-wing seems to be the only voice criticising US-NATO involvement in wars in the Middle East, and they are definitely against uncontrolled mass immigration. At the same time, the center left and center right that control most governments and are aligned with the mass media encourage mass migration and encourage war. That leaves unrepresented people of a center left or center right disposition who are neither in favour of war or mass migration. This is a glaring omission and one senses that it is deliberate on the part of the mass media that claims to represent public opinion globally.

European 'xenophobes' 'leverage' crisis against immigration?
See also : The Brussels Attacks – Another False Flag? (23/3/26) by Peter Koenig | Global Research, Syria condemns Brussels terrorist attacks, says they are result of wrong policies in favor of terrorism (22/3/26) | SANA
In Brussels Attack: The True Implications of ISIS Links (22/3/16) | New Eastern Outlook (republished (23/3/16) in Land Destroyer) Tony Cartalucci uses his exceptional insight and knowledge of Syria and European politics to show how suspicious and inconsistent is the official mainstream narrative of the Brussels Bombing of 22 March.
However, this otherwise informative article is unjustly critical of Europeans who actively opposed the huge wave of immigration suddenly imposed upon them by politicians, notably German Chancellor Angela Merkel and the corrupt Turkish President Erdogan.
Cartalucci cites a Guardian op-ed of 22 March which claims that the terrorists were long time residents of Europe and not new arrivals. This would hardly be surprising, as it would surely require local knowledge and familiarity in order to be able to carry out such a devastating attack. Cartalucci continues:
Presumably Cartalucci considers German Chancellor Angela Merkel to be for "unity, moderation, and peace" and would label those, who voted against her in the recent German regional elections as well as the 143 women assaulted in Cologne on New Year's Eve, and those who tried to protect them, 'extremists'.

Cause to hope that Europe will stand up against globalisation
Dennis K #comment-182319">wrote:
I don't accept that Europeans or Australians have "to live with" what the ruling elites have planned for them. The anti-immigration and anti-globalist National Front of Marine Le Pen won 27.73% of the vote in the first round of the December 2015 French regional elections, more than either the openly pro-corporate Union des Démocrates et Indépendants on 26.65% of the vote or the 'left wing' 'Parti socialiste on 23.12% of the vote.
However, the National Front failed to win a single region, because the other two parties acted together against the National Front during the second round.
Marine Le Pen is a member of the European Parliament. There is good reason to hope that the National Front, with a capable leader like Marine Le Pen and grass roots action, will be able to overcome the manouvers by the other two main parties and win the next French elections.
