#1 If that's successful integration, we should bring back that "separate but equal" thingy.

#3 And still, no one's bothered to find out what's being preached in their mosques.

#4 Take these "statistics" with more than a few grains of salt.
This is about political influence. They need to show themselves as politically active, financially prosperous and numerous.

#5 Agreed, john. Those Yemenis in Lackawanna's First Ward aren't earning beyond the national average, nor likely anywhere near it. Nor are their children likely to join the ranks of the educated upper middle class after the demands they've put on a school system already oriented to providing workers for the long since closed Bethlehem Steel plant. Some have saved enough to move to the nicer part of Lackawanna, buying neat little houses from retired steelworkers at top dollar, but it's still the same school system. Quite possibly 60% of America's Muslims do have college degrees, but I'll bet the other 40% can barely read and write in any language, nor is it likely that they vote, even if registered.

#6 I remember reading someplace a few months back that Palestinians were the most educated people in the world. If it's true, all it proves is that education don't necessarily mean shit...

#7 The between the lines here is that CAIR (with their fetish on the Arabic side of things) may not speak for the vast bulk of American Muslims although they certainly want us to believe they do.
