IMMIGRATION thread

[Montmorency]

Islam is not a race and you're not racist if you are concerned about millions of unregistered and unknown people spilling into your country.

In fact, it would be much easier if European governments adopted policies that answered a different question than 'how do we deal with these Mohammedans?'

By approaching integration as something that is done to or by "Muslims", you implicitly endorse the Islamist manifesto of "Ein Reich, Ein Volk, Ein Fuhrer"; if we would like to remediate the insular tendencies of disoriented foreigners, then giving them nothing to latch onto but fundamentalist pan-Islamic identity and a sense of grievance. Or should we be surprised when we sweep a bunch of dust into a corner and end up with dustballs?

Even going according to a breakdown by ethnicity or national origin would be an improvement. Of course, at this point it would be too little too late given the oppositional structure and culture that has become well-established in Muslim Europe over the past 20 years.
