What a load of garbage. Look at most of the immigrants who flooded America as it emerged. They had nothing, they saw a land of opportunity and many of them did well.

They did not whinge and moan they just got on with it. Its what made America what it became. Many of them were subject to severe racism, eg the Chines, the Irish, the Italians and they were all white and most could not speak the language either.

Here is a little fact for you. Do you know what race had the largest mass lynching committed against them? The Italians:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1891_New_Orleans_lynchings#:~:text=The%201891%20New%20Orleans%20lynchings,mass%20lynching%20in%20American%20history.

The 1891 New Orleans lynchings were the murders of 11 Italian Americans and Italian immigrants in New Orleans by a mob for their alleged role in the murder of police chief David Hennessy after some of them had been acquitted at trial. It was the largest single mass lynching in American history.[2][3][note 1] Most of the lynching victims accused in the murder had been rounded up and charged due to their Italian ethnicity.[6]The lynching took place on March 14, the day after the trial of nine of the nineteen men indicted in Hennessy's murder. Six of these defendants were acquitted, and a mistrial was declared for the remaining three because the jury failed to agree on their verdicts. There was a widespread belief in the city that Italian-American organized crime was responsible for the killing of the police chief, in a period of anti-Italian sentiment and rising crime. Italian-American voters were also known to prefer the scandal plagued city political machine to the new Reform Democrat Mayor, whose own role in inciting the violence that followed may well have been an attempt to misuse government power for the repression of his political opponents.

If the Middle East is destroyed, would anyone really have much of a concern provided that they were religious and law abiding citizens?

I often think where the Middle East went wrong was being too sacreligious and lawless.

What will we do with all the immigration flows and the remnants of the terrorism?
