Reply #10: And if this is the problem, is it primarily about religion or is there

something else about Muslim culture that encourages these non-assimilating "enclaves"? And, if Muslims immigrants won't assimilate, what is the solution?

One thing I'd say is that Euro/American law has to be the same and enforced regardless of the background of the immigrants. The article gives the example of non-intervention when European Muslims treat their daughters in ways that are contrary to European law. ANYONE who chooses to immigrate to Europe must understand that girls in Europe have rights that girls do not have everywhere, and that their tribal or family traditions will not be respected when they conflict with the core principals and rights of western society. If you want the right to have a clitorectomy performed on your underage daughter, you should stay in a country that gives you that power. Europe should not "tolerate" that kind of primitive nonsense.

I still have to say, are all immigrants treated this way, or are muslims singled out? Do muslims fail to prosper because they are not allowed to assimilate, or because they resist assimilation?
