Europe

...actually, it's been discussed only in some circles but now seems to be on the forefront.

That's healthy - but I suspect the global elites will quash it soon enough and not long after these victims are buried we won't hear much about it until the next Islam inspired atrocity.

The top four comments at the moment are:

1) Islam is incompatible with a free society.
2) Islam is incompatible with any other society other than itself.
3) Islam is incompatible even with itself.
4) It's incompatible with life.

They've been discussing it for at least 30 years.

Nothing new.

I think it is simplest to say Islam is incompatible with western civilization.

There has been brainwashing for decades. Free speech is kind of taboo when it comes to Islam. If you say Islam is crap, you are considered xenophobic etc. I keep saying it anyway It should be declared a dangerous sect and be observed by the authorities.

Unfortunately, the Pegida movement in Germany is being infiltrated by real racists and right-wing people, so their original anti-Islam agenda is watered down, and it becomes easier to push the whole movement into the xenophobic corner.

Islam is like HIV. Once you have it, it may be dormant for a while, but sooner or later it will become a problem. I guess Islam will only become compatible with the West, once Muslims start to give up most of their religion and only stick to meaningless rituals, just like Christian Europeans have done a long time ago.
Middle-Eastern religions are racist, stupid ideologies, and it is a shame they are still staining other regions of the world.

I suppose it could be referring to the current genocide that is ongoing in Somalia/Kenya/Iraq/Syria.

People in Europe have been discussing this for 20 years. It is outlawed for them to do this above a level of whisper, however.

The EU is very similar to the old Soviet Union in that way.

The emergence of UKIP in UK, National Front in France, the marches against Islamism in Germany do indicate that, at the very least, they now acknowledge the problem.
