I’ve heard that from many.

However, I will say this. The average Saudi, or Pakistani immigrant to the US sticks out like a sore thumb.
The average Turkish or Persian/Iranian immigrant in the US dresses Western-style, and can blend in rather well aside from being at least nominally Muslim.
Therefore, I believe that Iran and Turkey have the most potential to be “normal” democracies if they can flush out the Islamofascist elements in their respective countries.

I’m not for national building. It doesn’t work and it wastes our recources.
Those people riot, complain and end up with more primitive and more brutal rulers.
they let it happen to themselves.
