It's time that the Islamic people who flock to Western countries asked themselves the serious question "Why do we do it?" Once there, in what they must have considered a desirable place to be, they start acting in a paranoid way, making unreasonable demands for the host country to change their culture to accommodate them and constantly seem to complain of discrimination and seem to desire the downfall of the host country. And yet, in spite of the bad publicity, still they come and judging by their burgeoning population growth, consider the West a suitable place for their children to grow up in. Why do they do it?
