#9  Muslims never figure out that the reason why there homelands are impoverished is: Islamic socio-economics.

#8  Good points, I wonder if during the next Flu pandemic the Muslims will share evenly in the vacinations. I'm pretty sure when the CDC is working the problem the US will be stretched trying to cover our own population. I think much of the middle east might have to trust to the Will of Allah.

#7  Re-reading it : "The fertility rate for Tatars living in Moscow..."; in that context the 10 kiddies per wimman could be there too. 10 seems an awfully big lot of babies per capita, at least in modern times, but if birthrate is twice as high in war-torn chechnya than in RF (including non-slavic pop), then it might be higher in more secure and affluent Moscow.

#6  I sense hysteria or agit-prop.

Yup.

--CHECHEN BIRTHRATE HIGHEST IN RUSSIA
Novye izvestia reported on April 21 that a conference, "The Chechen Republic and Chechens: history and modernity," organized by the Russian Academy of Sciences' Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology in conjunction with the Chechen Republics' Academy of Sciences, had noted that around half of Chechnya's gross domestic product remains in the "shadow economy" but that the republic has the highest birthrate in Russia. According to Aleksandr Granberg, chairman of the Russian Academy of Sciences' Council for the Study of Productive Forces, reported that despite all of Chechnya's "misfortunes" and economic "ruins," the republic's birthrate in 2003 was 24.9 per 1,000, compared with 10.2 per 1,000 for Russian as a whole.

1. Mother and Child Health (pdf)
The results of a WHO comparative analysis of
mother and child health situation in Chechnya,
Ingushetia and North Ossetia-Alania, based on
the official reports of the Ministries of Health,
show that in 2005 Chechnya retained the highest
birth rate (22.0), compared to Ingushetia
(14.2) and North Osseita (11.2) (average RF –
10.3). In Ingushetia and North Ossetia birth
rates have been reducing since 2003. Infant
mortality remains highest in Ingushetia with
24.5 in 2005, though also reducing from 28.1 in
2003 and 24.8 in 2004. The lowest infant mortality
is reported in North Ossetia since 2003
(10.5) and 9.4 in 2005.

#2  I believe there will be a civil war in Russia and in Europe. The civil war will fix the demographic issues. The longer they wait the worse it will be but make no mistake, both groups are very good at the business of death when they finally set their minds to it.

I imagine a repeat of Stalin's tactics of isolating and starving regions with little media or public inspection to the crimes. This could occur in larger areas where troublemakers are sent or simply by shutting off the inner city ghettos that have gone beyond the point of no-return (harder to hide that though).

#1  --Russia's Muslims, however, are bucking that trend. The fertility rate for Tatars living in Moscow is six children per woman, Mr. Goble said, while the Chechen and Ingush communities are averaging 10 children per woman. At the same time, hundreds of thousands of Muslims from Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan have been flocking to Russia in search of work. --

And how can they afford to feed this many????

Pooty and the Church better wake up and let the Mormons, etc. in to do they're work.
