Muslims in the US are, generally, much more integrated into American society than their counterparts in Europe. I know of at least 3 Muslim attorneys in my law firm (which is a prominent firm in DC). Such a thing would be unheard of in France, Germany or many other European countries (excluding the UK).

Part of it is the fact that we have a very small Muslim population in this country, so self-segregation is difficult for them. But, as anyone who has seen the dead-end foreigner ghettos outside of Paris can attest, we have also not maginalized our minorities the way many European nations have done.

That’s what I thought too. Here’s the line that caught my eye ...

“This also goes a long way towards explaining why there have been no terror attacks in the U.S. since 2001. And why the 2001 terrorists were warned to stay away from American Moslems.”

You’d be surprised at how many middle class and upperclass Mexicans and Central and South Americans reside in Spain.
But we aren’t surprised at how many Old World middle class and upper class immigrants the US receives.
When the US is swamped with New World unskilled labor immigration, Western Europe is swamped with unskilled Old World unskilled labor immigration.

The parallels are obvious, and as is often stated, I’ll take the unskilled mostly nominally Christian New World unskilled immigration over the situation unfolding in Europe.
