   'Leaving aside what I'm told are more than a few cries of "Allahu Akhbar!"   
   on the streets, my correspondent is correct. But that's the point. The first   
   country formally to embrace "multiculturalism" - to the extent of giving it   
   a cabinet post - was Canada, where it was sold as a form of benign cultural   
   cross-pollination: the best of all worlds. But just as often it gives us the   
   worst of all worlds. More than three years ago, I wrote about the   
   "tournante" or "take your turn" - the gang rape that's become an adolescent   
   rite of passage in the Muslim quarters of French cities - and similar   
   phenomena throughout the West: "Multiculturalism means that the worst   
   attributes of Muslim culture - the subjugation of women - combine with the   
   worst attributes of Western culture - licence and self-gratification.   
   Tattooed, pierced Pakistani skinhead gangs swaggering down the streets of   
   northern England areas are as much a product of multiculturalism as the   
   turban-wearing Sikh Mountie in the vice-regal escort." Islamofascism itself   
   is what it says: a fusion of Islamic identity with old-school European   
   totalitarianism. But, whether in turbans or gangsta threads, just as   
   Communism was in its day, so Islam is today's ideology of choice for the   
   world's disaffected.   
   Some of us believe this is an early skirmish in the Eurabian civil war. If   
   the insurgents emerge emboldened, what next? In five years' time, there will   
   be even more of them, and even less resolve on the part of the French state.   
   That, in turn, is likely to accelerate the demographic decline. Europe could   
   face a continent-wide version of the "white flight" phenomenon seen in   
   crime-ridden American cities during the 1970s, as Danes and Dutch scram to   
   America, Australia or anywhere else that will have them.   
   As to where Britain falls in this grim scenario, I noticed a few months ago   
   that Telegraph readers had started closing their gloomier missives to me   
   with the words, "Fortunately I won't live to see it" - a sign-off now so   
   routine in my mailbag I assumed it was the British version of "Have a nice   
   day". But that's a false consolation. As France this past fortnight reminds   
   us, the changes in Europe are happening far faster than most people thought.   
   That's the problem: unless you're planning on croaking imminently, you will   
   live to see it. '
