Britain

I've been saying in recent weeks--not only in relation to Britain's Iran hostage situation humiliation, but prior to it, in relation to Britain's utter lack of will to control immigration and its passage of a sweeping homosexual rights law that will put Catholic adoption agencies out of business--that Britain is dead. Now John Derbyshire, in a lament for his native country, is saying it too.Unlike him, however, I don't write Britain off forever. It is not a biological organism, which, once it is dead, is dead. It is a nation, and, if it wanted to, could come back to life.
