Pat Buchanan in "The Way Our World Ends" points out the sad demographic evidence that Western Civilization is the truly endangered species.
It appears that Western Man will not even outlive the cause d'jour polar bear!
In 1950, whites were 28 percent of world population and Africans 9 percent, a ratio of three-to-one. In 2060, the ratio will remain the same. But the colors will be reversed. People of African ancestry will be 25 percent of the world’s population. People of European descent will have fallen to 9.8 percent.
More arresting is that the white population is shrinking not only in relative but in real terms. Two hundred million white people, one in every six on earth — a number equal to the entire population of France, Britain, Holland and Germany — will vanish by 2060.
The Caucasian race is going the way of the Mohicans...
By 2050, a fourth of all the people of Eastern Europe will have vanished. Ukraine will lose one-third of its population. Russia, 150 million at the breakup of the Soviet Union, 142 million today, will be down to 108 million. Such losses dwarf what Hitler and Stalin together did to these countries...
Pakistan will add 84 million to reach almost 300 million, the U.S. population today. Afghanistan’s population will triple from 27 million to 79 million. Iraq’s will go from 29 million to 62 million.
The destinies of these nations will be beyond the capacity of an aging, dwindling, dying West to dictate. (emphasis my own)

I think it already may be beyond the West to dictate. Those are amazing stats.I'll have to read Buchanan's book.
Why is it that Pat Buchanan has so much insight but no one seems to pay much attention to him?
