Why leave islamic countries, if life is so good under islam ?

Reader comment on item: [Brandeis University President Jehuda] Reinharz, Israel and Me
in response to reader comment: Islamization of Europe

Submitted by Phil Greend (Canada), May 12, 2007 at 09:21

There is a large number of muslim people who are leaving islamic countries, . . . why ? If islam is so wonderful , and these countries are built on islamic principals., then why leave to go to the west; The non islamic west to be more accurate.

We sell pork openly, have music that is definitely not islamic, Ac Dc and Ozzy blasting from car radios. Why would they leave their homes and neighbours and extended family. To come here.? . . . .The reason is simple , most muslim people do not enjoy the iron boot of islam on them. They don't like the repression of basic human rights, the right of freedom of speach or religion or press that happens in all islamic countries.
