English Summary/英文概要： When London was hit by suicide bombers, the little secret of the British Establishment was finally out. Despite the staunch resolve of Prime Minister Tony Blair after 9/11, Great Britain had been the European hub of Islamist terror and extremism for more than a decade. Under the noses of British Intelligence, a network of Islamist terrorists and their sympathizers had used Britain to plot, finance, recruit and train for atrocities in the US and around the world. The scale was so large that, in a mocking reference to the Afghan training grounds for al Qaeda, exasperated European security agencies dubbed Britain ‘Londonistan’.
But this was merely the most visible sign of a much more intractable problem that had turnedAmerica’s principal ally into a potential fifth column. In this ground-breaking book, Melanie Phillips reveals how the advance of the global jihad is being facilitated by a wholesale collapse of western values and national identity within Europe in which Britain is taking the lead – and which finds many troubling echoes in America. Paralysed by minority rights and the terror of Islamist violence, the British establishment is even now failing to confront the religious fanaticism in its midst and is choosing instead to appease it. Meanwhile, the post-modernist onslaught upon the concept of truth itself has produced such confusion that, instead of standing up to the ideas that threaten democracy, many in Britain now subscribe to the false narrative of those who are laying siege to their society.
While attention is fixed on foreign battlegrounds, the war is in danger therefore of being lost at home. As Britain sleepwalks towards cultural oblivion, the disorientation of the once-implacable British bulldog threatens its special relationship with America and the future of the west itself. This book is therefore a warning to America, to Britain and to all who care about freedom.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 英國知名女專欄記者梅勒妮·菲力浦的《倫敦斯坦》以倫敦地鐵和公車爆炸案為根據提出，英國政府和知識階層其實是伊斯蘭激進思想在英國生根的共犯。該案的主犯並非伊斯蘭新移民，而是在英國本土長大、家境良好的第二或第三代移民。英國政府和知識階層固執得近乎愚蠢地奉守和平主義和寬容精神，這使得他們在種族問題上近乎怯懦，從而固執得近乎愚蠢地奉守文化多元主義和道德虛無主義，奉守“政治正確原則”。於是，他們對邪惡視而不見，顛倒黑白，根本不願意承認有來自伊斯蘭激進思想的威脅，這使得他們實施的政策不但不能消除、反而增加了伊斯蘭移民對他們的仇恨和蔑視，結果導致倫敦淪為恐怖主義的國際神經中樞，成了作者所說的“倫敦斯坦”。
菲力浦將目前的英國和歐洲與1930年代前後“綏靖”政策時期相比，不同點在於後者的威脅來自外部，而現在的威脅卻出自其內部，因而更具致命性……。請點選網址繼續閱讀： http://www.washingtonobserver.org/story.cfm?storyid=1567&charid=2 本文轉載自 劉見林 ，《華盛頓觀察》週刊 2006年第46期，12/13/2006。
