>>>>I must be misunderstanding you. It sounds like you are saying the Dutch have been stained by allowing Muslim immigrants. If that is what you meant, how is it any different from what the Nazis said in the 1930s?

>>>Not at all. I am saying that relatively homogeneous societies invite a radical change of their culture if they try to absorb large number of people with no intention to assimilate. Assimilation is very powerful for both sides. Otherwise, you have a situation like the African immigrants to France. It has nothing to do with who the immigrants are, only with their attitudes about their host. If you move to Britain to become your unique flavor of British, everyone wins (look at the Indian immigrants) If you move to Britain to change Britain to match the place you a leaving, you a simply another kind of invader.

>>>The EU in general has adopted an immigration policy - for purely cheap labor reasons - that is going to have a very high social cost and I don't know how European values are going to be reconciled with a large and growing minority that has complete contempt for those values.

>Walter, I was hearing rumblings such as those, to which Mr. Hankey refers, in the 1960s when I was in Germany.

This policy that charles refers to, does not exist anymore for at least 30 years !!! Currently there is enough workingforce within the EU.
And the EU won't make the mistake again to get the workforce out of remote areas with a total different culture.
