Eurabia theory frames European politics as capitulation to an Islamic jihad strategy
Evidence
In Ye’or’s undeclared totalitarian state, this Islamicisation of the education system has been enforced by a combination of political apparatus and an Orwellian apparatus of thought control, which has supposedly purged academe and the media of any dissenting voices and created an intellectual climate in which only pro-Arab views can be heard. The results are evident in Europe’s ‘resurgent anti-Americanism’, ‘Judeophobia’ and, most of all, in the ‘cult’ of ‘Palestinianism’ which ‘poisons Europe’. … To Ye’or, the notion of a ‘Palestinian people’ is a propaganda fiction and European recognition of the PLO is further confirmation of Europe’s ideological subjugation to the ‘worldwide jihad strategy’ of Islam and the Arabs. — Matt Carr, You Are Now Entering Eurabia, 37
Categorization
- DEFINE: Eurabia is presented here as a totalizing polemical system: thought control, dhimmitude, Palestinianism as a hate cult, and denial that Palestinians constitute a people.
- XREF: Connects to The Reluctant Fundamentalist and Maps, both of which stage Europe/America/Muslim-world encounters that Eurabia theory would flatten into conspiracy.
