		Muslim activist associations are spreading all over Europe, and they are producing full-fledged European Muslim citizens who are politically and financially independent and are already beginning to ask questions about the justification for the Europeans' link with the dictatorships of the Muslim world.
		To be a Muslim, is to carry a concept, a meaning of life and death; to be French, English or German is to play one's role as a citizen of a nation.

	Foreign Affairs - Europe's Angry Muslims - Robert S. Leiken
		It was a Dutch Muslim of Moroccan descent, born and socialized in Europe, who murdered the filmmaker Theo van Gogh in Amsterdam last November.
		Today, Muslims constitute the majority of immigrants in most western European countries, including Belgium, France, Germany, and the Netherlands, and the largest single component of the immigrant population in the United Kingdom.
		So unlike American Muslims, who are geographically diffuse, ethnically fragmented, and generally well off, Europe's Muslims gather in bleak enclaves with their compatriots: Algerians in France, Moroccans in Spain, Turks in Germany, and Pakistanis in the United Kingdom.

		There are concerns of population growth among second and third generation Muslim migrants and the impact of this on the demographics of Europe.
		As Europe's governments step up their efforts to root out Islamic extremists, the future holds one of two possibilities: either the continent's 20 million Muslims will integrate smoothly into their countries' economic and political life, or they will remain on the margins, disaffected and potentially dangerous.

		Most of France's Muslims live in poor neighborhoods separate from the white Christian mainstream, in suburbs often rife with crime and seething anger.
