The Land Without Muslims
Jewish Press ^ | May 19, 2013 | Dr. Mordechai Kedar

There are countries in the world, mainly in Europe, that are presently undergoing significant cultural transformations as a result of Muslim immigration. France, Germany, Belgium and Holland are interesting examples of cases where immigration from Muslim countries, together with the Muslims’ high fertility rate, effects every area of life.

It is interesting to know that there is a country in the world whose official and public approach to the Muslim matter is totally different. This country is Japan. This country keeps a very low profile on all levels regarding the Muslim matter: On the diplomatic level, senior political figures from Islamic countries almost never visit Japan, and Japanese leaders rarely visit Muslim countries. The relations with Muslim countries are based on concerns such as oil and gas, which Japan imports from some Muslim countries. The official policy of Japan is not to give citizenship to Muslims who come to Japan, and even permits for permanent residency are given sparingly to Muslims.

The essay is a bit misleading, implying that the Japanese are focused on preventing the immigration of Muslims when it's foreigners in general they're concerned with.

However, I think he does get the gist of the general Japanese attitude towards outsiders.

The wholesale desire to eradicate the historic nation hasn't captured the political class in that country in the same way it has here.

Bob, I read the article. It glossed over the increases in crime and the illegal activities like selling doctored phone cards. As I said, when their density increased anger and physical attacks did, too. Japan saved itself some long term grief by getting rid of them.

No argument from me on that. It’s a given.

Japan has an imploding population, but they also have a cohesive one - they WILL win in the long-term, providing that they can handle the elephant next store.

including reactivating depleted phone cards and reselling them.

I remember that-it was mostly Iranians IIRC.
