Seems clear that Islam has failed on many levels and Moslems are envious of the success of the infidels so much so that they abandon Islamic lands for the "Christian" West in huge numbers. Apparently we're doing something right. Or is there another explanation?

Why does anyyone come to America and why am I asking about Muslims specifically? Well, the Mexicans, Chinese, Hindus and others don't literally demonize the west and the infidel and then come here seeking the good life.
Yes I know birth rates in the middle east are far higher than western Europe. Birth rates are higher in all undeveloped nations with massive poverty and all their excess population goes where the money is, not that there isn't plenty of money in the oil states, just that only the sheiks get any of it.
One person commented that Islamic culture had produced nothing for 1000 years. The last gasp of imperialist Islam was the Ottomans, historically quite recent for the literate, and it is rising again.

And yes something is wrong with Mexico or 30 million of their people would not have moved here in the last twenty years. I would have thought that obvious.

And SFNDX, who said anything about hating Muslims? I actually have a pretty high opinion of the Sufi.

I actually think the US is deeply flawed in terms of economic disparity (among the wrost in the world which is why our economic elites, loike the House of Bush, hold hands with the House of Saud. Both love money and could care less about those not born to wealth. I have many criticisms of the US. That we aren't authoritarian enough and religiously oppressive enough as some Christians and Moslems would like us to be are not among the critiques I would make.

The notion that evil doers live well in this life and the righteous live well in the afterlife is a fiction the rich have taught to the poor for millenia to make the poor content with their poverty while the rich further concentrate wealth in fewer hands. Stop falling for that lie SFNDX. Islam is supposed to be about justice and it is not just that the wealth of an entire nation is inherited by the few.

Good reason right there, Mark. As much as people claim to hate the USA, it is the only country that the majority of people on earth want to come to. Hmm, wonder why?!

Your question is quite wrong. There is no such term as islamic land.
The whole world is made for humans. Muslims can go anywhere in the world. If Muslims come to US to seek opportunity, it's nothing wrong as long as they dont involve in evil deeds. Someone talked about dollars. Nice try. Well, if you like "dollars" then why do you hate Muslims if they like dollars? And most importantly, if Muslims earn dollars here, then they get what they deserve from their work. so whats the problem? Hmm. Thanks for admitting about the success of infidels. True. Infidels have achieved lots of success. Its not a new matter. They acheived it because they don't have anything in the Afterlife. So they are proving the Qur'an once again:
"Leave them that they may eat and enjoy themselves and (that) hope may beguile them, for they will soon know." (15: 03)
"The life of this world is made to seem fair to those who disbelieve, and they mock those who believe.." (2: 202)
"Let it not deceive you that those who disbelieve go to and fro in the cities fearlessly. A brief enjoyment! then their abode is hell, and evil is the resting-place." (3:196-197)
So the opportunities and prosperities the infidels enjoy is good for them, only here. so keep enjoying. And yes, the more you disbelieve, the more you make Islam prove the truth.

each body is people no be counted what faith. each faith is diverse and we'd want to continuously appreciate that. the actuality is that no longer each Muslim united states has an analogous mind-set to life and customs. I lived in a Muslim united states it is truly liberal and that i said that the each body is an analogous as in the different position basically more desirable conservative. Their non secular customs are fantastically reliable and they don't enable too a lot of what we (western international places) are used to. See, all the rules and rules that they have got, once worked for his or her ancestors and made their international places more desirable moral and offered a more desirable proper residing, with a lot less criminal acts etc. it truly is an analogous with Christianity. the ten Commandments were made so people may have a more desirable proper existence and the incorrect doers will be punished so people will know that what they did is inaccurate. it truly is an analogous with Muslims. As time is going with the help of, some issues change, and in accordance to me rules must be changed besides to bigger wholesome the in the present day society and make it more desirable moral and moral. besides the undeniable fact that the non secular customs in maximum religions stay an analogous, and typically have a tendency to oppress the guy. As I suggested each body is people no be counted what faith and some each body is afflicted with the help of the rules and customs of their united states and bypass to a more desirable liberal one because they experience oppressed. yet as well there are such persons that are used to it and do not ideas it in any respect. it truly is why we shouldn't generalize about religions, races, international places etc., etc.

Two reasons : #1 to make alot of money because their culture hasn't done s***,in 1000 years.
#2 to populate Europe and Indonesia et al until their populations can control the governments(look how they have intimidated the crap out of the French and Dutch...as if that's hard?)and make Islam the state religion.
Oh...and #3 To ,in the end, make OUR countries "Crapistans" and miserable holes like the ones they came from.
Pick up the "Red Phone"Mr.President...The "football" needs to talk to you about sending some folks back to the 7th century where they belong.

The other explanation is this. They are not here to partake in Western prosperity and freedom. They are here to propigate Islam, and to choke the free world with their growing influence. In short, if they can't blow us up, they will overtake us by sheer numbers. Afterall, America is a democratic nation and the majority rules. Right?

Perhaps we are doing something wrong and they are tempted. Sin sin deal me in. Another thing you have overlooked is their desire to take over the world and infiltrating may be part of that. Christians call it prostylatizing. Their part of the world is a lot of desert so you know greener pasures (temptation) Don't be so quick to pat yourselves on the back.

One should never judge on others by their religion or their beliefs.
