Unlike a controversial previous guest of the Australia/Israel and Jewish Affairs Council, Professor Raphael Israeli, whose planned appearances were quickly cancelled after he made comments about the danger of having too many Muslim migrants, Phillips said she did not advocate limits on migration.

"We say [to Muslim migrants] you have much to offer ... as a community of faith ... as long as you wish to be treated like any other minority."

My question increasingly is, why do these immigrants really come to the West ?

Certainly for the opportunities afforded financially and the freedoms not found in their own countries.

But are these immigrants really willing to embract the West as their own, willing to sacrifice for it as our own ancestors have done, willing to die for it ?

I doubt it, with some exceptions.
