    Were Muslim Countries Always Under-developed?By Bernie on 26 Oct 2013

    n my article

    Sensitive UrbanZones in France -

    Muslim Ghettos, I made available to my readers a map of No-Go Zones in France, that is, areas in France which are no longer controlled by theFrench government but rather by Muslims. In addition, I pointed out that France was headed toward total control by Muslims and gave as examples

    the names of more than three dozen countries that have gone through similar infestations and transformations.

    In response, Teddy Crawley, a clueless dhimmi reader from Florida left this comment:

    All the countries you listed that used to have a muslim minority are or were underdeveloped nations. There is absolutely no way France

    will ever become a Muslim majority nation. Your fear is disgustingly apparent.

    OK, Teddy, let's consider your two assertions:

    All these now-Muslim-majority countries are or were underdeveloped.

    Actually, you're wrong. Before Muslims invaded their shores, many of these countries such as Egypt, Persia, Turkey, and parts of India that

    are now Pakistan and Bangladesh, were the most advanced civilizations in their time.

    Before Islam came to Egypt, the country was filled mostly with Christians (and some Jews) and was one of the worlds richest and most

    culturally vibrant countries. Underdeveloped before the Muslim invasion? Don't be an idiot.

    When India was filled only with Hindus she gave us the concept of zero, decimal notation, universities, medical schools and was at one

    time the richest and most advanced country on earth. Underdeveloped before the Muslim invasion? Don't be an idiot.Persia, filled mostly with Zoroastrians before the Islamic conquest, was an enormous superpower which ruled over what today is

    inhabited by the citizens of Iran, I raq, Israel, Lebanon, Jordan, Armenia, parts of Afghanistan, Turkey, Syria, parts of Pakistan,

    Caucasia, Central Asia, Arabia, and parts of Egypt. Underdeveloped before the Muslim invasion? Don't be an idiot.

    What is now Turkey, before it fell to the Ottoman Turks in 1453, was an empire which during most of its existence, was the most

    powerful economic, cultural, and military force in Europe. Underdeveloped before the Muslim invasion? Don't be an idiot.

    Equally well, but for the fact that more examples will not convince mental deficients, I can show the same for all the other countries

    before the Islamic infestation. The reason that you, Teddy, my dear uninformed idiot, believe these countries are underdeveloped isbecause they became so afterIslam. But you didn't know that.

    1.

    As for your notion that France will never become a Muslim majority nation, you are merely offering an unsubstantiated and worthless opinionwhile I am not offering my opinion at all but rather publishing the results of studies done by the Middle East Quarterly, an organization filled

    with scholars on the Middle East:

    Middle East Forum, Mar 1997, Islam in France: The French Way of Life Is in Danger

    ... the prospect of the French's converting en masse to Islam and France's turning into an Afro-Mediterranean country is not to

    be dismissed.

    To assess the chances of France's Islamicization over the coming thirty to fifty years, we look at four factors: the highdemographic rates of French Muslims, their aloofness from mainstream society, their increasing religious assertiveness, and the

    growing appeal of Islam to non-Muslims.

    ...

    Perhaps more important than exact numbers is the spectacular rate of growth since World War II . Muslims in France in 1945

    numbered some 100,000 souls; fifty years later, the population has increased by thirty or forty times. I t continues to grow at a

    rapid clip, through further immigration (illegal but until now poorly suppressed), natural increase (immigrant Muslim families

    retain a comparatively high birthrate), or conversion (either as the result of intermarriage or out of a personal religious quest).

    ...

    In all, the 1992 fertility rate in France was 1.8 births per woman, a figure slightly above those of Germany (1.3), I taly (1.3), and

    Spain (1.2) but well beneath that of the United States (2.1). France's demographic advantage over other European Unioncountries is due largely to its larger percentage of Muslims and their higher birthrate.
