Re: Are we (Muslims in West) really invulnerable?
Brevik is one nut job. But I do think Muslims in Europe have a tougher time because a lot of them live in segregated communities, and have done so for a few generations. Immigrants to the US and Canada are relatively new and a lot of them arrive based on their skill set or affluence; they are much more successful economically and socially so it’s harder to paint them as terrorists.
Also, keep in mind that mass Muslim immigrations are a relatively new phenomenon. It will take decades for Muslims to become fully integrated. Italians and Eastern Europeans were considered “immigrants” until fairly recently. Jews were actually excluded from the Ivy leagues as recently as the early 1900s. Look at them now lol.
Basically, it will take some time but I don’t think it will ever come to a mass exodus unless certain pockets of immigrants become very extreme.
Keeping in mind the current economic crisis I don’t see how being more successful and affluent than other minorities and the whites can be a plus point?
