If you travel to Vienna city center, you will likely get confused every now and then and think you're in Beirut going on the amount of hijabs, niqabd (and yes, even Burkas) you may encounter as compared to someone in western dress.

In Berlin, the area around Alexanderplatz will give you the same feeling during regular daily shopping hours.



All the cosmopolitanism in the world is great unless and until there is ghettoization. Which inevitably occurs when you're a religion that forbids your daughters from marrying the local non-Muslim men, and where "faith schools" pop up to ensure integration doesn't occur.
None of this changes the fact that some of your numbers are inflated.

Now you're just making things up. Nearly half of young French voters back Marine Le Pen, projections suggest | The Independent

"The far-right Ms Le Pen secured more support among young voters than any other age group. By contrast, she was backed by just 20 per cent of over 65s."

The Jews in France aren't fleeing in record numbers these past few years because they fear Le Pen, or the insurgent right wing.


Like canaries in a coal mine.............
You think socialism is the answer?

Exactly.
