A Book Review

Author Mark Krikorian casts an expansive net with his latest book: THE NEW CASE AGAINST IMMIGRATION: BOTH LEGAL AND ILLEGAL.

Amid this presidential campaign, perhaps the most critical in our nation’s history, issues fly like California wild fires in a July heat wave--piling up against one another so as to make them almost indistinguishable—like so much charred countryside.

Issues that often make the most ink also remain the least important. As a veteran observer, it strikes me that never has our government been so out of the control of the electorate while our country spirals into anarchy. Few leaders look at root causes.

Krikorian brings electrifying clarity to consequences brought about by relentless mass immigration. He exposes this devastating problem in all its complexities. He focuses on immigration’s dire consequences for the USA, which all start with our ignoring a cherished American first principle: Our government fails to live up to the basic Rule of Law set forth in Article IV, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution: "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence."

Krikorian builds his case while unfolding an avalanche of pertinent data to support his claim--as a mature civilization, we can no longer afford massive, unrelenting and endless legal or illegal immigration. Our cohesive civilization cannot survive the increasing drama of uninvited and unincorporated immigrants. Instead of our successful 232 year ‘melting pot’ concept, current immigrants create an incompatible ‘salad bowl’ of competing languages, rituals and antagonistic political agendas--counter to U.S. interests.

Former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm supports Kirkorian’s contention, “We are the only country in history that deliberately changed its ethnic makeup, and history has few examples of ‘diversity’ creating a stable society.â€
