Fjordman, Population Migration and Cultural Change

Apparently one of my Counterjihad writing heroes has given up on maintaining his once anonymous pseudonym as his nom de plume. He actually authors this essay with his given Norwegian name - Peder Jensen. In case you are not aware Jensen/Fjordman wrote under an anonymous pen name because his writings and essays are considered controversial by Left Wing Multiculturalists and Muslim Apologists. He explored themes considered hate-speech by European standards not necessarily because he condemned Islam (as I do) but he exposed the harsh realities of the theopolitical religious cult that counters the myth that Islam is Peace. Indeed, shortly after Norwegian neo-Nazi terrorist Anders Breivik committed an act of slaughter against a youth camp on a Norwegian island of mostly teenagers combining fun and ensconcement in slanted Left political ideology. These kids were not Muslims (for the most part) and neither was Breivik.


Brevik’s connection to Fjordman was circumstantial enough that the Norwegian press roasted Fjordman as the provocateur that inspired Breivik’ massacre. Indeed, Europe’s Multiculturalist politicians used the massacre as a tool to shut down criticism of Islam. Here are some thoughts I had on the Breivik’s Utøya massacre in relation to Fjordman back in 2011:


Breivik put together this 1500 page or so manuscript of which very little was actually original. Breivik borrowed from numerous notable anti-Jihadist writers to extrapolate a warped vision of Crusader Christians modeled after his interpretation of the Knights Templar. Breivik’s warped version of Christianity was to be the uniting symbolism to bring in a New European Order that would force Muslim immigrants to leave. The problem with Breivik’s New European Order was his plan adopted terrorist tactics against the ruling elite or to make the ruling elite to look bad to inspire ordinary Europeans to rise up to throw Liberal-Multiculturalist ruling elites out. Thus Norway experienced the slaughter of seventy or so Norwegians of young and old as part of a plan to terrorize the New European Order into existence.


Breivik plagiarized many anti-Jihadist writers; however it is apparent the essayist Fjordman was his favorite by the large amount of the copy and paste citations. Breivik’s naming of literary heroes has placed Fjordman as a potential favorite target to not only blame for the Norway Massacre but also to possibly indict him for criminal activity.


Is that crazy or what?


I learned in an Andrew Bostom article that the police interviewed and confiscated his computer. It looks to me like the persecution of free speech is beginning to take on a police state motif in Norway. Hmm … It could be Breivik’s massacre might actually lead to a test of free speech between free speech limiting Multiculturalists and the few Liberty-minded European Conservatives that exist. … (Fjordman the Victim; By John R. Houk; SlantRight.com; 8/11/11)


The police state methods of blaming Fjordman/Peder Jensen caused his anonymous status to be taken away. In case you are unaware, being a Counterjihadist in Europe places a target on your head for assassination Jihad-style on the European continent. Muslim immigration was already rampant and linked to many crimes circa the year 2011. NOW it is even worse. Muslims don’t even try to hide their proclivity to rape European women and murder Jews.


Well, that is a bit of a tedious introduction to a Fjordman/Jensen essay about migrations to Europe. The essay is rather brief and to the astonishment of Multiculturalists the theme is more akin to how migrations change the original culture of an area inundated by migration. It is however quite obvious the Muslim influx occurring at present in 21st century Europe is the cultural changing event that concerns Fjordman. It is a bit fascinating. Please leave a comment about if Fjordman’s concerns is a wake-up call for you or not. Especially my American brethren that have not yet experienced the same level of Muslim societal chaos that Europeans are feeling NOW. Obama and American Leftists apparently are ignoring Europe’s Muslim problems even in the same way European politicians are so doing in the name of Multiculturalism.

The New Migration Period

The following essay was first published in the regional daily Stavanger Aftenblad in Norway. Parts of the text were taken from Peder Jensen’s (Fjordman’s) book Vitne til vanvidd. This book is now available for a Scandinavian audience in Norwegian as both e-book and printed book. For a limited period of time, the printed book can also be ordered signed by the author. A shorter version of this book, which deals with the Anders Behring Breivik case and Muslim immigration to Europe, will later be published in English with the title Witness to Madness.


Many thanks to Liberty DK for the translation.

It is totally unrealistic to solve social problems through the migration of billions of people. Most social problems in southern countries must be resolved locally.


Before the Neolithic Revolution began 10,000-12,000 years ago, we were all hunter-gatherers. The number of people on this planet at that time has been estimated to between five and fifteen million human beings. A single major city such as Tokyo, Beijing, Seoul, Karachi, Mexico City, Lagos, Mumbai or Cairo now has more inhabitants than this.


The global population reached one billion people for the first time around the year 1800. From the time of the Neanderthals, it took all of the Earth’s peoples hundreds of thousands of years to achieve this population size. Since the Industrial Revolution, the global population has, over the past two hundred years, grown dramatically.


The world’s population is now growing at around one Roman Empire every year”.


In the coming three decades, it is expected that Africa’s population alone will increase by more than one billion people. Combined with a huge population growth, modern means of transport are now creating the largest and fastest human migrations the world has ever experienced since our species first came into existence.


Population estimates for the Roman Empire at the beginning of our era range from 45 million to over 100 million people. A relatively common estimate is 60-80 million. Various estimates suggested a global population growth of between 70 and 80 million in 2015. The world population is thus growing at a rate of roughly one Roman Empire every single year. Today’s migrations are much larger and faster than the Migration Period we associate with the fall of the Western Roman Empire.


The population growth in Egypt in less than a generation is thus larger than the population of all the Nordic countries combined.”


200,000 more per day


Let us stipulate that the global population increased by 73 million people in 2015. This corresponds to a global population growth of over 6 million people per month, around 1.4 million people per week, nearly 200,000 per day, more than 8327 per hour, almost 139 per minute and 2.3 per second. If you spend 30 seconds on grabbing a cold drink in the fridge, the planet’s population will have grown with perhaps 69 people during this time. If you spend half an hour on eating lunch, there will be around 4,164 more human beings on Earth after your lunch break.

In the year 2050, the Democratic Republic of the Congo is expected to have joined Nigeria and Ethiopia as one of the world’s ten most populous countries. Despite stagnating population numbers in Europe and East Asia, analysts expect that the world population will increase by billions of people during this century. Demographers believe that the Earth’s population may grow to between 9.6 and 12.3 billion people by 2100, perhaps more. Africa’s population could grow tremendously to between 3.5 and 5.1 billion people. By 2050, it is estimated that four out of ten of the world’s children could be an African.


In 1897, there were 9.7 million Egyptians. In 1996, Egypt’s population numbered 59 million people. The country surpassed 87 million in 2014 and could have 137 million inhabitants in 2050. This huge population growth contributes to political instability. Between them, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland had, at the beginning of 2015, a population of about 26 million people, including recent immigrants. The population growth of a single Arab country in less than one generation is thus larger than the population of all the Scandinavian and Nordic countries combined.


A large Asian country such as China has a bigger population than the entire European continent, including Russia. The same goes for India. Bangladesh and Pakistan grew by around 5.6 million people in 2014. The population growth of just two Muslim countries in a single year is thus large enough to overwhelm a small European nation. With its current demography, Pakistan will reach a quarter of a billion inhabitants within a generation and still keep on growing. Meanwhile, Pakistani immigrants to the West are sometimes referred to as a vulnerable “minority,” almost as if they were a rare rhino on the brink of extinction.


A small rise in prosperity in the global South will not necessarily lead to less migration.”


Europe as a destination


Europeans are a global minority. We have always been a minority, but today, the European share of the world’s population is smaller than it has ever been in recorded history.


Let us stipulate that at least six billion people on the planet enjoy a lower standard of living than the average person does in Germany, Norway or the Netherlands. If just 9% of six billion people want to move to Europe or other Western countries, this would amount to 540 million migrants. This is more than the total number of citizens across the entire European Union (EU).


Polls show that four out of ten people in Nigeria would move to a Western country if given the opportunity to do so. If 40% of Nigeria’s fast-growing population want to migrate to the West, this would amount to at least 73 million potential migrants from a single African country, which is regarded as Africa’s economic superpower. Many of the world’s southern regions are now on the move, even in countries where there is no war. A small rise in prosperity in the global South will not necessarily lead to less migration. On the contrary, international migration could increase even further because more people have enough money to travel.


If Africa were to send 100 million people to Europe over the next five years, Africa’s population would still continue growing. Muslim countries such as Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan also experience a large population growth. If the Islamic world and Africa were to send a quarter of a billion migrants to Europe over the next ten years, these regions would still increase in population.


There is no other viable alternative


Could lead to collapse


These figures are intended to illustrate population growth. In practice, the number of migrants will not be this great. Yet the mere fact that this is theoretically possible should be cause for concern. In coming generations the Islamic world and Africa could, in principle, send a constant flow of migrants ten times larger than what we are seeing now. Even if they did so, this would not solve fundamental social problems in the Islamic world or in Africa. It would, however, probably cause a collapse of the social fabric in many European countries.


It is totally unrealistic to solve social problems through the migration of billions of people. Most social problems in southern countries must be resolved locally. There is no other viable alternative.
