Absolutely not! The point is, that in the US and Down Under, the spiritually
aware, indigenous population has been effectively wiped out by colonists over
a relatively short period of time (300-400 years). In Europe, the majority
of countries have been *reasonably* stable, in terms of ethnic makeup, for
quite a while....Last time *we* were invaded was 1000 years ago...
So, the immense spiritual trauma caused by the reeducation centres and the
whole original Wild West (aka Genocide) never really happened in most parts
of Europe. Even the Eastern Block countries never really had their populations
displaced....Kosovo, OTOH, will be a background 4 region for as long as
I can think!
I mean, take Ireland - who could be arsed to invade the place (apart from
Fredriksohn Frediksohnsohn[1][2], and his sohn (sic) ) - whose sole contribution was
to give my ex-girlfriend the most *stunning* red hair I've ever seen. And some
people think that rape and pillage is a *bad* thing....Sheesh.... The ethnic
makeup of people in Ireland has not significantly changed really...ever...AFAIK!
