Pride Will Be Avenged

A quote from Paul Gottfried at Taki’s website, 27 August 2007
 
A demonstration against the “Islamicization of Europe” scheduled to take place in Brussels on September 11, 2007 and put together by the umbrella organization Pax Europa has been prohibited by the socialist mayor Freddy Thielemans. […] The anti-Flemish Fleming and Islamophile mayor of Brussels has just walked into a nasty trap; and it is one toward which equally reckless European and American multiculturalists may be pulled. He has gone a tad too far to curry favors with Islamicist and not merely Muslim voters; and he may reap the whirlwind for his stupidity. A tipping point comes when the populace has had enough of government-mandated cultural enrichment; and when it starts to protest. […] As Sophocles put it, “Hubris timoresetai [pride will be avenged].” Or is it cowardly deceit that will be the cause of Thielemans’ undoing?
