By "Middle East" I mean Egypt too, where there are millions of Christian copts.

Do they face the same problems to integrate as Muslim immigrants? Or is it much easier for them?
They don't seem to be ending up in Europe, interestingly enough ( at least in significant numbers.)
But Muslim Arabs end up there in droves.

Assyrians are very well integrated in the US, but not as much as in Australia - Not sure why though.

I'm an Assyrian, btw.

Some posts need to stop assuming that all Middle Easterns are Arabs.

Even among the Arabs, there are minorities who practice different religions: Christianity and even Judaism (Mizrahi Jews) who have not moved to Israel.

There are Turks, Israelis, Kurds, Persians, Assyrians, and etc.

Sweden is the country where there are the most. I think they settled there a long time ago just after WW2

The Assyrian community has even got a club called Assyriska while the Syriac Christian community's football club is Syrianska

It seems there are many Christians from the Middle East in Södertälje, Sweden, as well as Mandaeans...

I have read the article. It looks like a very interesting city. I think there's a large Christian Lebanese community in the suburbs of Paris and an Armenian one in Marseille

It stands to reason that they would integrate reasonably well as their culture is often a hybrid of European and Middle Eastern. Most of their schools for example were created by religious groups and orders that originated in Europe (or local religious groups that spun off from European religious bases), and so this has had a tremendous influence that has been passed down through the generations.
