As I browsed YouTube the other morning, a video in the ‘news’ sidebar caught my attention and quickly triggered a fit of laughter. The video’s title was ‘Minnesota Somalis Protest against al-Shabab’.
I had a personal reason to laugh at this. A friend of mine lives in Minneapolis and the city’s lack of diversity is a running gag in our correspondence. (‘A black guy came in to the bar yesterday. It’s closed down now’….)
But even without my private rationale, the headline is pretty surreal. Somalis in Minnesota… How? Why? When?….
After regaining my composure, I began to research the census figures on American Muslims. I haven’t done this before as the ‘Islamisation of America’ scenario spoken of by Conservatives has never felt real to me. America – I’ve always thought – is much too proud, too nativist and too various for Muslims to pose an organized threat.
Perhaps I was too hasty.
While it’s certainly true that America will never become a Muslim majority country, it seems the seeds of euro-style Islamic ghettos are being planted at an alarming rate. This is from the NY Daily News:
“A new survey reveals the dramatically changing face of religion in America, with the number of Muslims in the U.S. soaring 67% in the decade since the 9/11 attacks….Data released Tuesday from the 2010 U.S. Religion Census shows Islam was the fastest growing religion in America in the last 10 years, with 2.6 million living in the U.S. today, up from 1 million in 2000…..In the Midwest and parts of the South there are now more Muslims than Jews for the first time. Immigration from parts of the Muslim world and a small rise in conversions are the driving force behind the growth, researchers said.”
For the Muslim population of the US to double in ten years is not unworthy of concern. It should also warrant special attention across the Atlantic. As we in Europe know so well, breakneck growth of this kind is heavy-laden with political and social consequences.
What kind of consequences? Well, leaving aside the ‘Little Mosque on the Prairie’ fantasy world of the Left, almost all of them negative.
Take for example, our Minnesotan Somali friends from earlier. It turns out their ‘protest’ was actually more of an apology. “Six years have passed” reports the Mail “since Somali-American fighters began leaving Minnesota to become part of al-Shabab. Now the Somali community is dismayed over reports that a few of its own might have been involved in the violence at the Westgate Mall in Nairobi.”
So, a terror attack by Somalis on Kenyans in Nairobi… and connections are apparent with Minnesota. This is what you get with a blind immigration policy.
Though complete Islamisation might be unthinkable for the United States, there is a halfway condition between that nightmare and what the country is used to. This is ‘Europeanisation’. To be ‘European’ in respect to Islam is be in a state of castration, political correctness and deliberately naivety. It requires a sizable Muslim minority with a political voice and a proven threat of violence (the Netherlands perhaps, is the model for this). You’ll know you’ve reached this condition when, after an Islamist attack or riot, your politicians address the community responsible in a pandering language more appropriate to admonishing children for overturning a houseplant. “Come on guys, this isn’t what we expect…”
If it wishes to catch up with European decline, America has a lot of running to do (or should that be running backwards), but it’s a shorter walk than many realize from the burned out houses of Detroit to the burning cars of Paris. Islamism thrives in extreme poverty and racial resentment. Neither is in short-supply in contemporary America.
Things can snowball quickly in the modern age. Before you know it, Somalis will be in Minnesota.
D, LDN.

One can look to Detroit Michigan for a glimpse of the future of a new left in America; and zooming in closer, one can look to Dearborne Michigan for a glimpse of the future of Islam in America.

“This is what you get with a blind immigration policy.”
Calumny! Or perhaps you are remnant of the well-mannered Brit and wish not to give offense by stating the obvious.
Our immigration policy is not blind.
Politically venal, yes – Somalis, concentrated in liberally generous (relief and assistance) States, Minnesota, Maine, are future voters of America and insurance against white recalcitrance, should they eventually tire of being put upon and attempt to leave the reservation… errr Democratic Party.
Institutionally avaricious, yes – secular and especially religious organizations have insinuated themselves into the immigration process by the promise of a service – greasing the way for culturally exotic émigrés to acculturate themselves to a strange land with strange notions. Needless to say, they expect their cut. As church attendance goes so go the tithes.
Moronic, yes… yes, a thousand times yes. The importation of third world POCs with low IQs, ignorant of the principles that order(ed) this society and, in too many instances, are utterly hostile to it, will not end well. Those not unaware of the problem but who insist on continuing the stratagem leads to the last of what our immigration policy is…
Malevolent. How better to eradicate the ancien régime – Western civilization and its attendant culture, capitalism, private property, freedom, WASPish work and Judeo/Cristian ethics, wealth, individuality, family, – the elements that obstruct socialist utopias – than to factionalize, corrupt, and contaminate it.

I agree that division is the Democrat game. Certainly the Obama Asian-Black-Hispanic coalition was deliberately engineered by immigration policy. I have to say though I really thought Minnesota was Whiter than a1950s sitcom. I must read up more about American demographics.

Rural and town Minnesota yes. Minneapolis-St. Paul is going the way of all urban blights, just slower. I suspect the failure of global warming to comply with computer models may stay utter desolation.
