For the present, we must push them back.

We can't afford to try to assimilate Muslims into our cultures as long as the extremist/terrorist faction is making war against civilization. I see Bridgit Bardot is in trouble again for complaining about Muslim culture infiltrating France. She takes issue with their slaughtering of Animals on the Muslim holiday Eid, which is supposed to commemorate Abraham saving his son from slaughter and substituting a sheep instead. But Muslims have a history of playing with the facts. For them, the son is Ishmael, not Isaac..

In so many respects Muslims have changed the Holy Books of the Jews and Christians to reflect their version in the Koran, which spotlights Muslim views over the original Jewish and Christian texts. This is not going to change. Until they show respect for other people's beliefs, there will be conflict.

How about looking to South America for needed immigrants? Most are Christians.
