They will look like our children in the streets. Europe stands at the precipice of a self-inflicted reckoning, one the entire world will witness in real time. Governments captive to progressive dogma and foreign interests have permitted “protest” to metastasise into sustained chaos, destruction, and the systematic betrayal of their own citizens. The spectacle of black-clad youth flooding the streets has become ritual—conditioning police, politicians, media, and the public to accept mass disorder as the new normal. But what happens when the faces of our enemies join the ranks of the protests, amongst our children, under the same black masks? The vulnerable and the desperate are placed in the foreground; the organisers remain in the shadows. Housing is provided, empathy is demanded, and any resistance is branded phobia. The children of the host societies are drawn into the fray first, taught to despise the very civilisation that shelters them, while infrastructure burns and cities empty of the cautious. When the cities of our heritage are paralysed by simultaneous upheaval, and their suburbs—where families still believe themselves safe—are struck by the same contagion of fear, the authorities will face an impossible choice: defend the streets or protect the politicians and parents whose own children have already been sacrificed to the chaos. There will not be enough force for both. The world will watch a civilisation that once defined order and continuity collapse under the weight of its own inverted priorities. I write this as a father who still hopes his children inherit more than ruins and regret. The hour is later than most dare admit. Get our children out of the streets before they become fodder. They are the smoke screen of the enemy inside the gates.
