Europe and Islam
Joy McCann
Beautiful Atrocities has a terrific feature a lot of bloggers should consider: a series of links on the sidebar entitled "Outside Reading." This is an ever-rotating set of articles Jeff-in-Oakland has found provocative regarding politics, economics, and current events.
One that's listed at present discusses Holland's turbulent relationship with its Muslim immigrants. The issue is placed in the broader framework of how Europe might cope with its ever-growing Muslim population, a large number of whom subscribe to Islamist principles. It's thought-provoking and highly recommended.









There will be those who argue that Holland is experiencing a more extreme version of what we're experiencing here, although I'd say that's premature.
Remember Steyn's contention that Europe's Muslims make anti-terrorist activities very different for them, since the problem is "internal" for them, vs. "external" for us.
