«Youth Bulge»

The friend has sent from England an English translation of the interview published in the Danish language with German professor Gunnar Heinsohn, having advised to read it, despite possible depressive reaction.

I would not like to read 16 pages at all, as at me and so the heap not read has collected. But having seen the beginning, I could not come off any more. Interview was is taken concerning an exit in 2003 of its sensational book: «Sohne und Weltmacht: Terror im Aufstieg und Fall der Nationen».

Having read it, I have immediately gone on Google and have found out, that the author — the 63-year-old professor of the Bremen university, the sociologist, the economist and the researcher of a genocide. He has written set of books about rising and a decline of civilisations, since the Bronze age, the Ancient Greece, the Near-Eastern countries and finishing the Holocaust and modern Europe.

In the book «Sons and world supremacy» it gives an explanation to the phenomenon which has generated an unforeseen and inexplicable wave of terrorism and violence which breaks now our world, naming this phenomeno «Youth Bulge».

Definition of this phenomenon proves to be true elementary mathematical calculation — comparison of quantity of men at the age of 40 — 44 years with boys at the age from 0 till 4 years. Demographic failure occurs when on each 100 men at the age of 40 — 44 years are necessary less, than 80 boys at the age from 0 till 4 years. In Germany it is a parity equally 100/50, and in sector of Gaza — 100/464.

Heinsohn uses the term «demographic failure» to characterise the countries which will be incapable to resist to a priority of youth from other countries. Germany and Japan are ready to delivery to the countries similar Muslim, — to Afghanistan (100 men/403 of the boy), Iraq (100 men/351 of the boy) and Somalia (100 men/364 of the boy).
