My new @washingtonpost column:
Why do Muslims need to be like everyone else? A case against assimilation.

Hello Mr. Hasim,
You've already reached levels of institutional validation that remain inaccessible to nearly all Americans: a professorship at Georgetown, a position on the Washington Post's editorial board.
At that point, saying you still need to prove yourself is like Taylor Swift insisting no one listens to her music.
If assimilation feels out of reach, it isn’t because the system has excluded you. By any reasonable measure, it has already brought you into its highest ranks. What remains is a decision about whether you’re willing to fully embrace where you already stand.
And all signs point to “no.”
This is a you problem.

Every time I see a photo like this I start looking around for a bulldozer.
Exit question: “I’m not sure if Hamid was born in the United States or if he’s an immigrant, but a lot of people asked the same question I ask: There are 57 Muslim countries in the world … why do you choose to move to a Christian country and then complain about being expected to assimilate?”
Get used the Red-Green alliance.
Oh. Wait.
Can’t quite make out what it says underneath the sign that says love thy neighbor. Unless they’re gay? Unless she’s outside without wearing a burlap bag? Unless they’re Jewish? Unless they’re Christian? Unless they’re American?
I say force them to not assimilate by kicking them out.
Muslims THOUGHT Europe Will Fall To Islam… Then Europeans Push Back HARD!

Oh look it’s the Welfare Bums with their Butts in the air again
I’d rather a grenade be tossed.
What’s especially bad is that those Muslims who do assimilate or try to assimilate are under constant pressure by their co-religionists not to. When I was in my 20s I used to work with a very Westernized Muslim engineer - I knew him pretty well, he dated white girls, drank, partied. We lost touch and a few years later when I saw him again he had a full, long beard, abstained from alcohol, had married a girl from his own country. He seemed happy with his new lifestyle but he admitted family pressure had a lot to do with it.
A Drone or Zombie
Red-Green-Black-White Liberal Alliance.
You know, the colors of their flag.
They can’t assimilate because civility isn’t in their mind set it’s proved often.

This religion smells different to everyone not in the front row
Muslim assimilation is akin to cancer assimilation.
But at least cancer doesn’t broadcast over loudspeakers at all hours.
Military tanks would work.
