Diana West: Hitler's Revenge By Paul Belien

My colleague and dear friend Diana West sends me this excerpt from her book
The Death of the Grown-Up: How America’s Arrested Development Is Bringing Down Western Civilization”:

In Alien Nation: Common Sense about America’s Immigration Disaster, a bracingly unequivocal assessment of the cultural and political shambles that make up U.S. immigration policy – the basis of sovereignty – author Peter Brimelow opens his preface with a provocative statement.

There is a sense in which the current immigration policy is Adolph Hitler’s posthumous revenge on America. The U.S. political elite emerged from the war passionately concerned to cleanse itself from all taints of racism and xenophobia. Eventually, it enacted the epochal Immigration Act (technically, the Immigration and Nationality Act Amendments) of 1965. And this, quite accidentally, triggered a renewed mass immigration, so huge and systemically different from anything that had gone before as to transform – and ultimately, perhaps, even to destroy – the one unquestioned victor of World War II: the American nation, as it had evolved by the middle of the twentieth century.
