Islam had an estimated 3 million adherents in Latin America and the Caribbean as of the end of last year, marking an increase of nearly 25 percent from the 2.3 million who were residing there in 2010, a Breitbart News analysis of U.S. Department of State (DoS) data shows.
Among the Muslims in the region are people who emigrated from Muslim majority countries including Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Egypt, and Pakistan and locals who converted. Most of them are recent migrants and descendants of those who made the journey years and even generations ago, namely Palestinians, among others.
The most recent data found in the International Religious Freedom Reports issued annually by the DoS reveal that there were at least an estimated 2,990,000 Muslims residing in Latin America and the Caribbean in 2015.
In 2010, the number was about 2,290,000. That means the Muslim population grew by nearly 700,000 (23 percent) between 2010 and 2015. Some experts have indicated that Shiites outnumber Sunnis in the region. Irans growing influence has sparked concern within the U.S. government.
DoS, also known as State, did not include estimates for all the countries in Latin America and Caribbean, so the actual number of Muslim residents there could be much higher.
Various sources, including State, show that in 2015 there were concentrations of Muslims across the region: in Brazil (1.5 million); Argentina (750,000); Colombia (10,000); Venezuela (100,000); Panamá (14,000); Suriname (81,200); and Trinidad and Tobago (60,000).
Breitbart News analysis comes nearly a month after the top U.S. commander in Latin America and the Caribbean warned that the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) is actively recruiting and radicalizing converts in his area of responsibility.

PING!
lest we forget or overlook the fact that the Moslem invasion of not limited to taking over “just” USA, Canada, UK, and Europe
They’re like a virus. They move to a new area, infect it, destroy it, and then move on.
Another good reason to build a wall
Very very very bad news
Latin America is inhabited by stupid people.
I thought the Latinos multiplied but from the figures I’ve seen the Muzzies are almost reproducing at double their rate. Let’s call this what it is - colonization in preparation for takeover.
