Many German Muslims 'refuse to integrate'

2012-03-01

Nearly every fourth non-German Muslim rejects integration, questions western values and tends to accept violence, according to a study commissioned by the German Interior Ministry and released late Thursday morning.

That low? I wonder if someone jimmied the numbers. Perhaps the folks at East Anglia had a free hour...

Interior Minister Hans-Peter Friedrich said the study's results were worrying, according to in an interview published on Thursday.

"Germany respects the background and cultural identity of its immigrants. But we don't accept the importation of authoritarian, anti-democratic and religiously fanatical points of view," Friedrich told the Bild newspaper.

Whoever fights against freedom and democracy will not have a future here, said the minister - a member of the ruling Christian Democratic Union's sister party, the Christian Social Union.

The survey showed that of Muslims living in Germany who were not German citizens, 52 percent favored integration, while 48 percent "strongly leaned toward separation" and clearly rejected German majority culture.

Logical and, g(r)omgoru. All three conditions must be satisfied simultaneously; any two out of the three won't do.

#2 I'm sure they can leave if they want to. Since they do not they are simply leaches, living off something they loathe.

#1 63% of the Muslims in Germany are from Turkey.

There are 4.3m Muslims, importantly, only 1.9m are German citizens. There are 82m German citizens, total.
