#1 Seems like they already have a working majority in France and Germany.

#2 Seriously, Innocents Abroad has a post from a BC Report on the specific situation in France.

The BBC reports that a recent study commissioned by the French government shows that Franceâs suburbs are increasingly turning into Arab ghettoes where anti-Western and anti-Jewish sentiment are becoming the norm.

As the article notes, this isnât entirely unexpected, but it is worrisome. Franceâs Muslim problem â and it is a problem with Islamic fundamentalism â is the worst in Europe. While many European nations are having difficulties integrating the children of Muslim immigrants into their societies, France stands out as by far the most troubling case.

(snip)

But if the problem of increasingly ghettoized suburbs is primarily a French problem, it is still something that should worry the rest of Europe for a number of reasons. France, like the rest of Europe, is aging. Its elderly population is growing while its birthrate is falling. Except, that is, among Muslim immigrants. From an economic and social point of view, an aging population itself is a worry as it increases stresses on an already overburdened health and social security system. But when we add to that a poorly educated, alienated sub-class of angry Muslim youth, itâs nothing less than a recipe for social breakdown.

Of course, this has to worry the rest of Europe because France is one of the largest nations in the European Union. Social and economic tensions in France will inevitably affect the rest of Europe and in many ways both obvious and more hidden. One of the less evident effects, but one also potentially dangerous, is that France, unable to modernize its economy due to heavy social welfare burdens, will attempt to resolve its problems on the backs of other European nations. Indeed, it could be argued, and some French economists have made this point, that the French government used the Euro currency in order to piggyback on the German economy in order to avoid reforming the shambles which is French finances. Of course, the Germany economy has had its own troubles. But if the rest of Europe begins to see French social breakdown as affecting their own quality of life, the tensions within the EU could reach the breaking point.

Other more evident effects would simply be the disastrous impact on the rest of Europe with an almost civil war-like state in France [Couldn't happen to a more deserving group of dhimmis] . This sort of domestic upheaval would inevitably pull in the rest of Europe and could even inflame similar tensions in neighboring countries.

The picture in France is not too bright at present. Anti-Jewish and anti-Western sentiment among the non-integrated Muslim population is growing, and the French government seems unable, both morally and intellectually, to deal with the issue. Itâs a danger that could have enormous implications for France and for Europe.

#3 easy way to keep France, Spain, Italy predominantly Catholic - open up to Latin American immigrants. Spain has quite a few - do any other Euro countries?

Excellent idea! We could send all the Hatians and Quebecois back to France. Solve three problems with one stone and raise the French IQ by 15-20 points.

#5 Thx for info & links, Mr Davis!

[mini rant]
Re: Europe & Muslims -- They don't actually need a majority - their unity and block actions (marching orders issued every Friday) give them more impact than their numbers. Besides, they scare the hell out of the locals, no? Europe will either get its head out of its ass regards immigration & guest worker programs, absurd benefits programs, silly-assed unproductive short work weeks, socialism, communism, maosim, weenieism, non-assimilation societies, an utterly unarmed & unprotected populace, complete wussification of same, barely-armed & under-manned police, idiotic legal sentencing, super-sensitivity to every whining sub-group, Moslem pandering & appeasement, etc. or be swallowed up. Whole.

Looking at the obvious situation down the road... How long will it be before we see either falling Govts or open civil war - of the Muslim vs Everyone Else variety? Too many seem damned slow on the up-take... and thanks to their absurdly PCized social systems, in some places there won't even be a whimper. So unsuspecting, unarmed, unprepared, and unprotected they just disappeared under the wave - but boy oh boy did they have some super-duper PC laws, elitist intelligentsia coffee / book shops, perfected anti-American social / educational indoctrination, and powdered-wig civility, eh? So superior to the simplisme' American cowboys... Life is hard. It's a lot harder if you're stupid.

#6 I'm to the point now where I'm not sure who I despise more. I say f*ck 'em.

#7 France has the Bomb. Just what we need. Wonder how long it will be before Isreal thinks about nuking them?
The Moose Limb religion is the threat. It's time we stamp out this ideology which is a clear and present threat to our way of living and liberty.

#8 This is well-know but not well-publicized statistics. I fact, some countries like France will have the majority much earlier (2020). There is both a public and government denial that will not help anyone. Mubarak said it: "it's a demographic war".

#9 I believe there will be a backlash against Moooslimbs after a major attack in the EU and they'll do a mass retribution, forcing many to go back home.
