Muslims themselves will not permit it

Reader comment on item: Europe or Eurabia?

Thanks again to Daniel Pipes for another intriguing aticle.

I think much will depend on the Muslim capacity for "freedom".

Looking at what has contained Muslims before (in Muslim majority countries), and what they choose to do with the freedom of democratic societies - by way of "lawful Islam" or otherwise - this is what will seal their fate.

It is my opinion that large groups of Muslims do not have the capacity to exist in "freedom" without eventually self-destructing.

Individually or in small groups, they obey the law of the land. But as their numbers increase, their inherent cultural inability to govern themselves individually within the perimeters of free society seems to surface. This will doom them - since these "free societies" do not controll them, they eventually capitulate to the radical elements within Islam, which will. The higher their number in Europe, the higher their number of adherants to the "true Islam"- and it's dream of "Dar al-Islam". They will push for this, and when it's not granted to their satisfaction, they will employ "Dar al-Harb".

I believe severe restrictions on Muslim immigration will occur first (which I believe is already happening), followed by increased deportation, closing of Mosques, raids, etc.

All it will take is a few car-bombs, another 7/7, another "Glasgow Airport".

To think a "Muslim majority" in Europe will take place peacefully is very doubtful.

Muslims themselves will not permit it.
