There are 2 schools of thought regarding Islamic immigration to Europe: One says the Muslims are on a long-term quest to take over European societies. But this article implies that maybe something different is happening. Maybe this is where the hoped-for Islamic Reformation will come from.

The Communists were right about one thing: Their philosophy's survival depended on keeping their people isolated from the West. When the Iron Curtain became porous in the 80's, it let Western-style freedom seep into the Communist world. This proved to be strong poison for Communism, though Gorbachev thought he was merely freeing Communism of corruption & bringing it up to date.

If the Muslims wish to attempt to spread their poison in the Western world, I say let 'em. Their efforts will eventually prove unsuccessful, I think. The West is too open for an intolerant faith like Islam to take hold. They won't bury us, they'll bury themselves.
