This World Today

This scares me and I don't know what to do.

"Unwilling to assimilate these new immigrants, European nations have established policies that discourage intermarriage and expand Muslim-only ghettos. Bawer says many European Muslims arrange marriages for their daughters with residents of poor, rural villages back home. These men "put the brakes on -- or even reverse -- whatever progress the European-born spouse might have toward becoming Westernized. " The more challenging part of Bawer's argument rests on two ideas: that many European Muslims reject the West's bedrock values and that the continent's leaders and her people have little interest in aggressively defending the best parts of their culture."
