I’d always heard that Germany was really good about taking these muzzies in and (unlike the USA) turning them into productive Germans ... maybe I’m wrong?
Do you recall where Mohammad Atta lived while hatching the 911 plot? I believe it was Hamburg.
I heard the same story, but I now think it is propaganda. My understanding was that the German/Muslim situation developed from a shortage of workers in Germany in the 60s/70s, and they imported many Turks on the theory that they were guest workers and not necessarily potential citizens. Then that changed.
Mo Atta spents lots of time with hospitable fellow Muslims in Hamburg. So I don’t buy the integrationist line any more. I was also told that Turkey’s Muslims were more secular and pro-western. I don’t think that is really the case. Turkey as a country may be pro-EU but there is definitely a resurgence of Muslim identity, not integration, in Germany.
