The Empire Strikes Back

What we seeing in Britain and Europe is a classic example of how the empire strikes back. When it does the emperor would be at a loss for words and answers. The French had it. They have to find replacement for Karim Benzema to score goals for their world cup fixtures. The Germans had it. Now they can't deport the turks without having trouble to replace who to fix the bolts and nuts to their BMW and Mercs. What about the Pizzaronis? Now they have a mosque not far from the Vactican. Being Imperial is not such a good thing. The Russians had it. Before the split Russia would be flooded with Azeris, Kazakhs, Chechens and others.They saw that their control over the populace is waning.
Another classic in the making is Israel. They are finding it difficult to find Israelis willing to do menial jobs that the Palestinians use to for them. The children of the empire finds it above their dignity to work. So, they have to import Jews from the poorer countries to do just that like what the west germans tried to do with the east germans.
Empires do not pay in the long run. The initiators maybe strong and powerful but their successors are usually weak due to over feeding and over indulgence. So, good luck to the new empires. Don't regret. Ask those who had tattoo regrets.
