Are European Muslim Immigrants difference from American Muslim Immigrants?

[JohnSmith]

Most American Muslim immigrants are not poor and tend to be secular, moderate and educated. Is this not the case with European Muslim Immigrants?

It seem like places like in Belgium have cesspools of Islamic radicals running the show and the police are clueless. France seems to also have the same problem with these immigrants being radical.

Never had any problems with Muslims in the USA. I had plenty in my college classes with me and they were and normal people.

That seems to be the case. Whether it's a coincidence that the ones who come to the US aren't as crazy and fundamentalist or if they just aren't brave enough to act that way in America is another question. They know they can get away with just about anything in western/northern Europe.

I was kind of shocked by how Belgium just let radical Muslims do whatever they want. Making bombs in apartment building no police investigating or anything. I heard these places are no-good zones for the police. That would never happen in the USA.

The difference is that America (also Australia, Canada and New Zealand) mostly just allowes highly qualified people to come and stay permanantely in their country. The most Immigrants from outside Europe (not just the Muslims, also the Christians) here in Germany are degenerated farmers from Nigeria, Syria, Iraq, Somalia and God knows where else from. In many cases they arent even able to read or to write anything.

It seems like an uneducated adult would be hard to assimilate into a Western country. They prob would not be able to find a job that can support a family. It seems like they would be on welfare for the rest of their life. This is not the case in the USA very rarely do you ever see anything like this from a Muslim immigrant.

Most of those who have committed terrorist attacks in the West are supposedly educated and seemingly integrated/Westernized Muslims, so you never really know.

The funny thing is that, despite everything that was said on the account of Muslims, those who are the most troublemaking have probably almost no clue on what Islam really teaches (even the bad parts of it) and instead prefer to attach themselves to slogans such as "Allahu Akbar!" giving it a meaning only in situations of struggle, but that's about it.

Those wealthy Muslims you got can certainly prove to be more educated on their religion and all its interpretations... giving them an edge in actual debates and more tolerance towards Islamophobes.

When I went to Europe I saw plenty of assimilated and westernized Muslims. Actually I would argue that the North Africans/Arabs I saw in France seemed more secular than the Muslims I'm used to seeing here in the US. I think what's going on is that Europe has a lot more Muslims that come from "violent" cultural backgrounds whereas the US has a lot less of that. Those Muslims that come from violent backgrounds are more likely to turn to violence when they become extremists.
